Brooke has always had a special place in her heart for dogs! Growing up in a pet-loving family, Brooke was blessed to have several four-legged family members that made her childhood feel complete. In addition to dogs, horses have also played a significant role: she has been a riding instructor for the last 16 years and has competed for most of her life.
Driven by her childhood dream, she has over eight years of experience as a professional dog trainer and could not be more proud to be part of the Suburban K9 team! She finds that the most rewarding part of her job is working with owners to eliminate stress and ensure that their dog has the best life possible. Brooke is also a certified evaluator for A.K.C. and has years of electronic fence experience!
In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her husband and two beautiful little boys, who she hopes will one day take on a profession that is just as rewarding as hers. She also has two Bullmastiffs, Brutus and Presley, who hold a GIANT piece of her heart! Suburban K9 has truly been a blessing for Brooke and she can honestly say that she LOVES her job!!
