Hi! I’m Jen 🏳️‍🌈 …

Building relationships and trust with dogs is the best part of this work. And it's something I have found I am naturally well suited for. I have developed a mindful style of care that keeps me focused and present with furry friends I spend time with - increasing enjoyment, trust and ease all around. I bring a spirit of fun, play, presence and patience to my work. It’s all about setting the pups up to succeed no matter what we’re doing.

After several years of growing a small business focused on dog walking, cat care and overnight pet sitting, I have now officially completed a Professional Dog Trainer Certification through Good Pup Dog Training. Yay! I practice a methodology of pet care that is positive, celebratory, mindful, calm and silly… harm free and fear free always.

Prior to finding my way to the best “job” I’ve ever had as a Pet Professional, I did different kinds of work… 13 years of non-profit administration for Outward Bound… 13 years of teaching as a 500hr Ayurvedic Yoga Teacher…10 years of management with Clyde’s Restaurant Group. And, I attended UMBC in the late 1900s and have a degree in Literature. Go Retrievers!

I’m happy to now be a fully formed LLC, and an employer to a growing team of aspiring pet professionals. Learn more about them below!
