Thank you for considering me for the care of your pet. Personally, I am a firefighter wife who works inpatient physical therapy as my main career. I love to exercise and be outdoors with my two dogs, Harper and Georgia. As a lifelong dog owner and now professional dog trainer, I’ve been blessed to share my life with many animals. I know how hard it is to find someone you trust completely with your pets. That’s why I joined Rover: to offer the kind of loving, professional, and personalized care I always desired for my own dogs, but could never really find. Safety, communication, and transparency are my main goals when taking care of your animals. I have a unique set of skills that allows me to be one of the more trustworthy and legitimate sitters on this platform. My prices reflect the quality of care you get when you book with me. I do not just book any client. I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals, both personally and professionally. I’ve worked at several doggy daycare and boarding facilities, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all temperaments and energy levels. During that time, I completed training with PetTech for Pet First Aid & CPR. I began studying dog training 2 years ago to better understand canine behavior. I am now a professional dog trainer and specialize in puppies. I am highly skilled and well qualified when it comes down to finding someone who doesn't just do this as a side hustle, because I know we have all seen the horror stories. Currently, I work part-time, which allows me to be flexible, but I still value a well in-advance notice of when you will need care. This is my passion and I hope to pursue a full-time career in the pet care industry as soon as I am able. ***I do not judge the tools you may choose or not choose to use with your pets. This includes e-collars, prongs, slip leads etc. I am familiar with these tools and do not have a problem using them if it is what works for your pet.
