~*Bachelor Student in Canine Studies*~

Pet care experience

I am currently a Bachelor of Science student earning a degree in Cynology (canine studies) at Bergin University of Canine Studies. Bergin University is the only place in the entire world where someone can go to earn a a degree specifically related to the canine. Dr. Bonnie Bergin is the president and CEO of the university, and she is also the same woman who invented the concept of the service dog back in 1976. I have had the honor and privilege of having Dr. Bergin as my professor and mentor. After I earn my Master's Degree from Bergin University, I will be opening up a non-profit organization with my husband to breed and raise service dogs to help people with disabilities. It has always been my dream to help others, and having such a strong passion for dogs has led me down this road where I receive the best of both worlds; I get to be around dogs every day and still help people. I train service dogs every semester at Bergin University, and I have also volunteered to train dogs at the local humane society in order to make them more adoptable. I am a professional dog trainer who uses positive reinforcement and non-aversive methods for all of my training techniques. When I watch your furry family member for you, I don't just babysit; I train a little too. Your dog will be better when you come home than it was when you left. I understand the psychology of the dog, and will attend to your dog's needs. I love all dogs and all shapes & sizes. I would love the opportunity to speak with you so I can understand your expectations for dog sitting. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon. (I do not have any reviews on Rover.com yet, but you can find reviews on my dog training & my background check on another website if you ask me for the details)

Kristen is such a great dog trainer! I have known her for a long time and she has always had a passion for all animals, especially dogs. Kristen has helped train my dog (a beagle named Lady) to cope with anxieties, sit, shake and plenty more! Kristen has even helped train ME to be a better "parent" to my sweet fur-baby! Because of Kristen's expertise I have become closer with my dog and have expanded my knowledge about dogs. Kristen even taught me about the diet that my dog is supposed to be on! My dog is happy and healthy. I'm so lucky to know someone who is so knowledgeable about dogs and sweet and determined! She is patient with even the most difficult dogs. I have seen her at work with many types of dogs and she works wonders! I would recommend Kristen to anyone and everyone who needs help training their dog. No matter what the Barrier is your dog can Overcome it Now and Evermore!
