Pet care experience

Dog trainer and pet enthusiast!

I have shared my love and home with animals of all kinds for 27 years! I’ve been lucky to work with animals in a professional capacity since 2017 when I got an internship as a zookeeper. While there I learned so many facets of animal care, caring for reptiles, wild cats, and coyotes! After my internship I explored the veterinary world, I worked for 2 years at a local vet clinic working within the hospital and the doggy daycare and boarding facilities. There I found my love and passion for dog training and since then I’ve been working as a professional dog trainer. I love working everything from puppy raising to basic obedience, service dog training and behavioral modification! In my free time I work with and compete with my own dogs, some of my dogs are Search and Rescue K9s, I also participate in sports such as FastCAT and dock diving with my pups. Safety is ALWAYS my priority! I am certified in pet first aid and CPR and currently working on my program to become an instructor. Id love to get to know your fur babies and be able to give you someone reliable and trustworthy to take care of them with you.

Tammy is amazing! Our dogs are normally a bit scared with sitters but they love Tammy. She always goes above and beyond.

Our dogs are typically a bit nervous around new people but Tammy is so good with them! They absolutely love her and we feel so comfortable leaving them with her when we need to!

Safety, trust & environment

I always bring a calm energy into the home when meeting a new pet and building that initial bond. I love bringing toys or favorite treats to help keep visits and walks exciting for them. In my training pouch for walks I bring a spare slip lead, my phones incase contact is needed and for cute photos! Verbal deterrent for any unsuspected visitors and water and a bowl. It gets warm quick around here! Carrying my knowledge of pet first aid, I’m always watching for signs of physical stress on a walk or an outing.

Pets

A typical day

I love working dogs mentally and physically! If your dog loves to play fetch or tug we may walk down to a nearby park and throw the ball on a long lead for a bit. I also love doing scent based games like food puzzles or even hide and seek with some kibble or treats!
