Highlights
Pet care experience
My dog clients are my 2nd family ❤️
Hi There! I have 25 years of animal care experience, as well as dog training and behavior knowledge. I’ve just returned from living in Thailand for a year, where I worked as a supervisor for Lanta Animal Welfare, a dog and cat rescue. Prior to that, I volunteered at Rocket Dog Rescue. I had been working as a dog walker for 2 years leading up to my move. To make things even more interesting and weird, I also have have 15 years of experience in gorilla, chimpanzee and other primate care through volunteering with Oakland Zoo, Ape Action Africa and formerly The Gorilla Foundation with Koko! I know how much the animals in my life (domestic and otherwise) mean to me. That said, I promise to treat your pet(s) with the same love and attention I would hope for if I were hiring someone to do the same for my animal family.

Schedule
I’m happiest when my days are filled with pet care jobs, as it is my full time job. I love spending my days opening doors to dogs that are excited to see me!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I will follow any care instructions to the T. As i stated in my profile, I treat every dog as i treat my own dog. Because that is what I would want from a caregiver.

A typical day
I love giving dogs a lot of enrichment! Games, treats, puzzles, exercise and more games. I also love working on training exercises for any behavioral issues.
