Sarah has been working with animals since high school, ranging from a dog daycare, to zoo volunteer work, wildlife research, and more. After adopting her dog, Zuri, Sarah became interested in training and behavior as she navigated Zuri’s insecurity with dogs and body handling sensitivities. This experience was so rewarding that Sarah pivoted her career to focus on animal behavior professionally. She has since graduated from the Karen Pryor Academy and is a Fear-Free Certified Professional.
Training Philosophy
Sarah provides science-based behavior support for pets with anxious, fearful, or hyperactive behaviors. She finds improving the quality of life for both pets and their guardians extremely rewarding, and recognizes the importance of empowering guardians to support their pets during the behavior treatment process.
