YOUR PETS DESERVE THE BEST

Pet care experience

I am an Environmental Scientist and local dog trainer. My two biggest passions in this world are science and animals! So I strive to work with both because when you do what you love for a living, then it’s not really a job right?! I have personally owned a large variety of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles, and other exotics. Being a devoted pet parent myself, I definitely understand what people go through when it comes time to leave pets behind even if it is just for a single day. During college, not only did I spend two years working at the LSU Vet School, but I also maintained my own dog walking/pet sitting business. I have experience with tons of different breeds, sizes, ages, and degrees of health. I have experience working with pups as well as geriatrics and administrating different kinds of medications. Due to my fulltime M-F job, my schedule has limited flexibility during the week. M-F I can perform services before 7AM and after 5PM. On the weekends, my schedule is completely flexible! Anyone interested in training services or fun workshops should check out Sit Happens Dog Training. Rates are subject to alterations, additional fees, and/or changes.

Kirby is awesome! She does so well with our dog and he is high energy! She has a lot of experience and is always communicating with me to keep me informed while I’m away. Highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

When I care for your pet, your pet has my complete attention. I do not take risks or liberties with any of my clients. I follow instructions to the letter and try my hardest to keep their routines as normal as possible.

Information Kirby B. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences. All I ask for are well socialized dogs. If your dog has issues with anything (vacuum cleaner, kids, other animals), then please let me know. If your dog has a medical history or injury, then please let me know! Your pet and I will have a much better time so long as I know every detail. I have lots of experience with special needs pets so don't be afraid to fill me in!

A typical day

I am an active runner and cyclist so if your pooch needs lots of exercise, then I have you covered. If you pet is less active, then there's no shortage of pets and snuggles that I can offer! I am a regular park goer and am not opposed to bringing your pup along for an adventure if that's what you'd like!
