Hello! Thank you for considering me as a partner on your horses’ health care team! I take a holistic and natural approach to hoof care with a focus on keeping the horse comfortable during my trims. I am patient, calm and mindful when working with all animals.
I have been an animal lover and caretaker my whole life. I began professionally taking care of animals about 10 years ago, starting my own pet and house sitting business, including ranch and farm animal care.
In 2023 I joined the PHCP training and mentoring program. I have successfully completed the beginning training program. I also continue positive relationships with several local experienced trimmers. I am happy to offer trimming services as an Intermediate Student Practitioner. I am also a dealer for Red Horse Products like Artimud and Hoof Stuff. As part of my continuing education I am working on becoming a boot fitter and dealer for Easy Care and Scoot Boots and I will be offering glue on shoes as a future service.
I service the San Francisco Bay area I am currently accepting new clients including owners of one or two horses. The best way to contact me for a quick response is by text at 510.304.9641. I look forward to hearing from you.
