I offer an integrative & holistic approach to animal care, training & behavioral modification and routinely work with dogs & cats, but also with birds, rats, horses, chickens, fish & more!
Services conducted at your home, a local park, store, vet, or anywhere pet friendly.
I offer Zoom lessons for our long-distance and international students as well as Lodge N Learn Services for in-my-home boarding options.
Certifications and specializations in several areas as well as vast experience in the behavioral, veterinary medicine, and shelter/rescue fields, including: Fear Free & Cooperative Care training programs, Puppy S.T.A.R. programs, general practice & emergency/critical care veterinary medicine, nutrition and weight loss programs, Canine Good Citizen and Tricks evaluation, Animal Shelter Management Leadership ... and more!
I am also a Service Dog & Therapeutic Dog Trainer with Soldier's Best Friend...
** If you or someone you know is a veteran and may have need of a NO-COST Service Dog Program (PTSD/TBI), please reach out directly to: https://soldiersbestfriend.org/who-we-are/mission.html
SBF is also always in need of foster homes!
Foster homes help keep our program dogs safe for 4-6weeks until they can be paired with a veteran...and they have a long list of veterans waiting to be paired with dogs!

Featured with Skyler Jan 2023 on 98KUPD from Lost Our Home Pet Rescue (Phoenix area) where she has consulted:
Facebook link: https://fb.watch/ijSpeqhqD0/?mibextid=NnVzG8
John had attempted to feature Skyler several times before and he, nor his crew, could get near her and always had to have a wall or window in between. In this clip, she is actually a mere couple of feet away and much more happily working for me and ignoring him with no barriers...in only a couple of short lessons with me. She also had now been officially ADOPTED after over 2.5yrs in the shelter! Go Skyler! Yay!
Julie and her dogs were also discussed on a radio Podcast on 98KUPD on Holberg's Morning Sickness on 11/11/22, only 8days after she arrived in Phoenix. The audio link is available here, where he starts talking about Argos and Hazmat around the 5min mark and several times throughout the approx 35min audio clip. :
