I work as an animal trainer and caretaker who spends a lot of time delved in deeper research to better understand out animal companions. I have had 5+ years of experience working with canines, felines, avians, reptiles and other smaller household mammals. I work on keeping animals healthy, happy and providing the most optimal conditions possible as well as in helping those with animal troubles to better understand how to deal with and work around them. I am an intuitive, creative person who things outside the box and fits any type of training to individualize for each animal at the time, suiting the animals level of comfort and ability rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. I train in a positive, reward-based manner mixed with very subtle use of ways to tell an animal "no" such as a time-out in a lone room, as an example. I do not use any harmful tools nor physical force.
