About Alia

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello! I am a mental health professional with my own self trained psychiatric service dog who attends work with me at the high school. I have grown up fostering litters, training, puppies, and helping animals adapt to one another upon adoption. I have cared for dogs and cats for 10+ years, and my biggest passion is animal behavior. I know that the animals are part of the family just as much as anyone else, and I want to give that support back to my community. Animals are humans too.

Alia is the best! We have 5 dogs and she’s incredibly reliable, patient, and consistently goes above and beyond to ensure they are all safe and happy. I cannot recommend her highly enough for her professionalism and genuine care.
