Dog Hiker
Every animal in my care is treated with the same love, attention, and respect that I would give my own pets. Their health, happiness, safety, and well-being are incredibly important to me.
I’ve always believed in pursuing what brings me joy, but finding a job that truly aligned with my passions seemed almost impossible until I found Active Dog and knew it was the perfect fit.
Favorite type of dog?
My first dog and soul dog was a Bernese Mountain Dog, so Berners will always have a special place in my heart. But I love dogs of all shapes and sizes!
Favorite season to hike in?
I would have to say spring. Even though it can be a bit temperamental, I think that’s part of what makes it so beautiful. I love seeing the world wake up again after winter, especially the flowers!
Do you have any pets of your own?
I currently have three cats at home. My personal cat is Finley who I rescued from a shelter in NYC 3 1⁄2 years ago.
What’s your favorite way to spend a day/weekend off?
On a day off you will find me either thrifting, reading, writing, practicing yoga, hanging out with Finley or somewhere outside!
If you were stranded on a desert island, what three items would you want to have with?
If I were stranded on a desert island I’d bring my journal, a pen, and a super long book.
Other Fun Facts
I have had a few interesting pets throughout my life including, a lizard, tarantulas, chickens, frogs and alpacas!
Here’s a look at what’s happening on our nature hikes. We post photos and videos for every hike.
