Pet care experience
I am a trained veterinarian assistance (over 10 years experience) with a background in positive reinforcement training and grooming. I've also done a lot of work with special needs dogs (deaf, blind, amputees, behavioral issues, megaesophagous, Degenerative Myelopathy, diabetes, ect.) as well as being a certified therapy dog handler and trainer with Black Paw Canine. I worked for 10 years as a full time veterinary assistant at non-profit, full service vet clinics in Columbus and at various dog boarding and training facilities. I work part time as a Firefighter/Paramedic, so I am looking to fill my spare time doing something else I love! I wish to tailor the experience for each pet I meet. I can play, run, cuddle, groom, administer meds, train, you name it! It all depends on what your pet enjoys and what will be most beneficial to them! Thank you for trusting me with your furry family members! You can rest easy that with my years of experience and my time in veterinary and human medicine that your furry family member will receive the best care!
Reviews
Solana does a fantastic job with our dog Apollo - he is always so excited to see her! We are very grateful for her dedication to animals.
Solana is 100% trusted with my animals, especially with her background in veterinary medicine. I fully trust her with medicating my pets if necessary and being able to appropriately identify a medical issue in my absence. Besides medical knowledge, she truly loves animals and will spend time making sure your pets receive adequate love and care.
Solana has always been amazing and attentive with my dog's over the years. Highly recommend her for not only dogs but any furry family member.
Solana has years of experience caring for pets and is educated and trained in medicine. She has cared for my cats and dogs on numerous occasions, and I’m always left with peace of mind. I would recommend her to everyone I know!

Safety, trust & environment
Each pet gets a specialized care plan based on their needs. This will be discussed in length as to which things you'd like me to work on with your pup or what things we can reinforce when I care for your pet.
Information Solana C. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any dietary restrictions, allergies, medical conditions or physical limitations! What are any concerns or struggles you've had with training for your pet? Do they have any reactivity or situations that make them uncomfortable? What are their favorite activities?
A typical day
I love taking dogs to hike or swim (I know all the good hidden spots) and which parks have the best trails. I believe that not only should you tire out your dog physically but also mentally and will always we helping your dog to improve their training with basic commands, shaping exercises, and puzzle toys. Each dog needs something different!
