About me

History With Animals

My work with animals started on a farm in Alabama in 2010. I worked closely with Dr. Manny Deck to ensure safety and health over horses, pigs, goats, cows and a sassy chicken named Row. During my time on the farm, I found my love for animals. I worked with the Animal Care Department at The Institute for Marine Mammal Studies/Ocean Adventures where the exotic animals (dolphins, sealions, and sea turtles) have been rescued. I have also spent time volunteering at the Hattiesburg Zoo in Mississippi working to ensure habitable living areas for all zoo animals.

How I Became a Certified Dog Trainer

I was introduced to domestic animals (cats and dogs) in 2018 working as a Kennel Manager at Live Oak Animal Hospital. I discovered that I have a passion for dog training and enrolled at Animal Behavior College. I graduated with honors in 2022. (proof of certification can be provided if necessary)

Mission Statement

My goal is to open a facility to conduct group and private lessons, puppy classes, playdates, doggie boot camp, field trips, doggie spa day and board & train. I want to ensure every dog has their forever home with Love, Patience & Consistency.
