Experienced with reactive dogs. With a lifetime spent caring for dogs, cats, and more, I bring years of hands-on experience and am highly observant of animal behavior. I have skills for working with reactive dogs of all temperaments and training levels. Whether your pup is well-managed and needs their training reinforced, or is still learning to navigate the world, I meet each dog where they are. I understand that reactivity isn’t a choice, and I approach every dog with patience, compassion, and a focus on building their confidence and comfort. I also consider it my job to set your dog up for success, by being mindful of avoiding triggers. As a fellow pet parent, I know firsthand how hard it is to leave your loved ones at home. My own journey with Gibson, my reactive rescue and soul-dog, taught me the importance of reliability, trust, patience, and empathy in pet care. What I offer: • Experience with reactive and special needs dogs • Reliable, flexible scheduling (I’m self-employed and work from home) • Limited bookings for focused, individualized care • Skilled in administering pills and liquid medications, always using force-free, creative methods • Commitment to patience, compassion, and positive reinforcement Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to their needs and your preferences. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet. I’d love to help your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
