I like working with animals because they see the best in us when we are at our worst. No matter what we are going through, you can count on their smiling face, wagging tail, and big heart to wash it all away. I started working with animals when I moved to New York City. I've always had animals in my life. Dogs, cats, fish, horses, and goats were commonplace. Once I graduated college, I moved to the city and began working with them closely in a dog daycare, and now on my own. In my spare time, I like to read books, crochet, go for long walks, and spend time with my dog. One thing you should know about me is that I will go the extra mile to make sure everything is done correctly. I strive to make an impression that raises the bar for the next person doing the job. My skills include dog sitting, dog walking, and pet behavior.

I had the pleasure of working with Austin as his manager at our doggy daycare, and I can confidently say that he is one of the most dedicated and skilled individuals I've had the opportunity to work with. Austin has an exceptional ability to connect with dogs, understanding their needs and behaviors with a natural ease. His calm demeanor and patient approach make him a trusted caregiver, and he consistently demonstrates great leadership and problem-solving skills in high-energy, fast-paced environments. Austin’s strong communication skills and attention to detail ensure that both dogs and clients receive the best care possible. He is a true asset to any team and I wholeheartedly recommend him for any position in the pet care industry.
