I’m nearly a native Washingtonian! I lived in Washington, DC until I was five. After college I came back to the city and now live a few blocks away from where I grew up!
My two dogs are named after an NBA star, a sweetener, a foreign city and a type of tree,
I am neurodivergent, This can help me better understand animals and their behaviors since I often think like they do.
I’ve been working with dogs since 2007, when I first started volunteering at the Washington Humane Society (WHS, now Humane Rescue Alliance). Since then, I’ve worked at WHS and been a professional pet sitter and dog walker.
I earned my B.S. in Psychology and I’m committed to force-free, science-based positive reinforcement and cooperative care.
I’m Fear Free certified and also certified in Pet CPR and Pet First Aid.
Dogs deserve the best
