Hi, I'm so excited to meet your pet! What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on background in animal welfare. As a volunteer at PAWS and a former intern at Resilient Hearts Animal Sanctuary, I have spent hundreds of hours working directly with a wide variety of dog breeds, sizes, and personalities. This professional training means I am deeply familiar with dog body language, safety protocols, and positive reinforcement techniques. I know how to read a dog's subtle cues to keep them feeling safe, calm, and happy. Because of my experience with rescue environments, I specialize in: -Building trust with shy, nervous, or anxious dogs -Managing high-energy or reactive pups with patience and composure -Strict safety and leash habits to ensure your dog is always secure Whether your pet needs an active walking buddy or a patient caregiver who respects their boundaries, I bring a calm, shelter-tested approach to every visit. I can't wait to give your pet the high-quality, attentive care they deserve!
