Passionate about caring for animals

Pet care experience

Hello:) I am a huge dog lover with several years of dog handling experience! I have worked at an animal shelter now for three years. In this role I have knowledge/experience walking large breeds, reactive dogs and dogs with behavioral quirks. I am a responsible dog walker and will always keep your dog safe on leash. Prior to my shelter experience I worked in a dog grooming salon for 2 years. I enjoy walking/hiking and would love to have your dog join me! Feel more than welcome to contact me with any questions you may have!

Yanessa went above and beyond with our dog. Fortune got sick during her stay and Yanessa was very kind and patient.
