Sarah, our talented and dedicated Lead Trainer, has been an integral part of the Pawsh Park family since 2023. Bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience to her role, Sarah’s journey in the pet care industry began in 2016 when she graduated from a prestigious veterinary technical college. Driven by her passion for animal behavior, she specialized in behavior modification and earned her training certification from the American Kennel Club in 2018.
Throughout her career, Sarah has worked with a diverse range of dogs, from the sophisticated AKC champion Black Russian Terrier to young protégés and even abandoned pit bulls needing a new lease on life. Her dual certification in animal first aid and training has equipped her to handle every breed, size, and age of dog, ensuring that each one receives the personalized care and attention they deserve.
Sarah’s remarkable ability to connect with dogs is evident in her memorable experiences, particularly with Jack and Jenny, two dogs with contrasting personalities who, under her guidance, displayed exceptional teamwork and focus. Her approach to ensuring the safety, comfort, and happiness of every dog at Pawsh Park is meticulous, focusing on creating harmonious playgroups and providing individual care to those in need of extra attention.
Apart from her professional achievements, Sarah’s creativity shines through her hobbies, which include portrait and freelance photography. Her long-term goals are ambitious yet grounded, aiming to lead and mentor trainers across all Pawsh locations while continuing to contribute her expertise in advanced training classes and behavioral consultations.
Sarah’s interaction with pet owners is marked by her commitment to honesty, dedication, and genuine care. Understanding the importance of building trust, she ensures that every concern is addressed with empathy and expertise, fostering a community of well-informed and confident pet parents.
At Pawsh Park, we are proud to have Sarah as our Head Trainer. Her exceptional skills, heartfelt dedication, and visionary goals contribute immensely to the growth and success of our facility, making it a haven for pets and a trusted choice for their owners. You will be very impressed!
