I believe that by providing expert and compassionate support for cat guardians and their cats, pet parents can learn to understand their cat’s sometimes mysterious behaviors. This understanding can lead to strengthened bonds and can be a foundation for solving many cat behavior issues. Through informed and care driven support I teach positive training which strengthens the human-animal bond, along with behavior management to help solve behavior issues. As a cat behavior specialist, I serve busy cat guardians by listening to, educating, and guiding cat parents to help manage their cat’s behaviors, so they can live their best lives together.

Testimonials

Cat Guardian: Patricia

Robin helped us introduce a new cat to our resident cats. She has an obvious affinity for animals, and they respond in kind. Our often shy residents were easier around her than with most new people. She is very knowledgeable and up to date about cat behavior. Even though we've had cats forever, she taught us some new and helpful things about them and their often mysterious ways! I recommend her without reservation or hesitation.

Dog Guardian: Kathryn

Robin is just wonderful! She is kind and compassionate as well as very knowledgeable and professional. She has been helping me with my husky puppy for many months now and I trust her completely in my home and with my fur babies. Highly recommend!
