My Experience
For 15 years I’ve studied dog behavior and body language to make my dog-loving lifestyle a fulfilling career. Early in my career, I worked as a groomer, handling dogs of all sizes and helping them look and feel their best. I then went on to manage large-scale dog daycare and boarding facilities caring for up to 150 dogs per day! I have experience with therapy and service dogs as well as sports and competition-level training.
To keep my skills sharp, I regularly pursue continuing education and attend conventions. I’ve also been invited to be an expert speaker at renowned conferences such as IACP, Pet Boarding & Daycare Expo, and IBPSA. I am proud to be one of the first Professional Animal Care Providers certified worldwide through PACCC.
My personal dogs are titled in Tricks, Rally, Fast Cat, and Canine Good Citizens.
