Living with a reactive dog means carrying a mental load that so few people ever see. And every day asks a little more of you than most people realize.

So I just wanted to remind you that you’re doing a great job and your dog is lucky to have you 💗

I’ve been teasing this on stories but it’s finally time to officially share...

Our Stellar Sitter Certification Course is coming VERY soon 🎉

This is something I’ve been wanting to create for a long time. I’m taking the training, systems, and behavior knowledge that helped me build my successful Stella Sitter Squad and opening it up to pet professionals who want to elevate their care and their business.

You will learn the exact recipe to our secret sauce that has helped us stand out in our business and helped our sitters confidently navigate pets with behavior challenges, tricky situations, and provide the kind of care that clients truly trust.

If you’re ready to raise the bar in your pet sitting business, get on the waitlist because this is going to be soooo GOOD 🔥

Comment SSC and I’ll dm you the link to the waitlist, or you can find it in the bio too.

Can’t wait to share more!!!

Puppy training tip 9/30 - You don’t need fancy equipment to build your puppy’s confidence.

Grab an empty cardboard box and let them explore it at their own pace.

Reward any interaction, whether it’s sniffing, touching it with a paw, stepping inside, or climbing over it.

Simple confidence-building games like this help puppies learn that new things are safe and fun.

⚠️ Always supervise this activity and remove the box if your puppy starts eating the cardboard.

Puppy training tip 8/30 - You don’t have to walk through the busiest part of the city to socialize your puppy. Find a quiet spot just off the sidewalk where they can safely observe people, dogs, bikes, and city sounds without being in the middle of all the action. Giving your puppy a little distance helps them stay calm and build confidence at their own pace.

Behind the big feelings is often the sweetest, funniest, most loving dog you’ll ever meet. And not everyone gets to see that side of them.

But maybe that’s what makes it one of the greatest privileges of loving a reactive dog…

Puppy training tip 7/10 - Play “Ready? Set…Find it!”

I teach every puppy this game! Start by saying, “Ready? Set...” to build a little excitement, then toss a piece of food and say, “Find it!”

Sniffing is naturally calming for dogs, making this a simple game you can use for enrichment, engagement, and redirecting your puppy’s attention in everyday situations.

NYC Puppy training tip 6/30 | When your puppy takes a break from playing on their own, mark the moment and reward them!

Whether they come back to you, pause to sniff, or simply disengage for a second, these little breaks are worth reinforcing. They help your puppy learn that it’s okay to pause, regulate their excitement, and make thoughtful choices during play.

I’ve always believed that behavior support should be more accessible, and I’m so excited to bring that mission into my new role as Training Director with Rescue Bond Initiative Rescue Bond Initiative

Together, we’re working toward a world where fewer families have to make impossible choices and where more dogs can stay in the homes that love them.

Because adoption is only the beginning. The real work is helping dogs and people thrive together.

I can’t wait to share more about what we’re building. Follow along to learn more and support the mission at Rescue Bond Initiative
