Trista F. Pet Care Provider in Hugo, MN 55038

have graduated from the University of MN with a Biological Sciences degree in Ecology, Evolution and Animal Behavior. I have been employed at various facilities, working with hundreds of domesticated and wild animals. I have been dog walking for over a decade, working with clients privately to provide the best care possible for their pets. My responsibilities over the years have included (but not limited to) general dog walking and care taking responsibilities, socializing dog via dog park using safe, behaviorally appropriate strategies, medicinal help and therapies, potty training young and adult dogs, leash training etc. I utilize operant conditioning via positive reinforcement to assist my efforts for the owners behavioral modifications.

I also have a long history of working with cats, also exceeding a decade. I am very familiar with their care and behavioral tendencies. I have provided care including (but not limited to): playtime, petting, dietary and medicinal needs, etc.

I have 2 huskies of my own and absolutely adore working and caring for canines and felines. I enjoy working with animals of all sizes and personalities. I have the background knowledge and experience to handle animals that are more timid, higher stress and high energy. And of course everything in between!

For additional distance of travel information, pay rate questions, training and behavioral questions, etc-- please message me!!
Please let me know if you are interested and would like to discuss further the care for your pets!
