Her journey in animal care began at the Pasadena Humane Society, where she served as a Dog Behavior Specialist providing enrichment and training for shelter animals, including dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and even reptiles. There, she developed and led volunteer enrichment programs and worked one-on-one with animals needing specialized behavior support.

She has completed advanced coursework in dog aggression and defensive handling and is certified in Fear Free and Low Stress Handling techniques, ensuring your dog’s emotional well-being during training.
Before moving to Oregon, Quinn ran her own in-home training business, helping pet owners build strong, trusting relationships with their dogs, as well as working with service animals. With a unique background working with both children and animals, Quinn brings patience, clear communication, and a thoughtful approach to every session.
