I’m a veteran dog runner of four years and a former collegiate cross country runner. In 2008, I founded Happy Trails Dog Running in Portland, Oregon and quickly discovered I’d created a dream job for myself! At the time, Happy Trails was the first dog running business in the state. Now there are over 10!

In mid-2011, I founded Dog Runner Jobs as a way to help other runners break into the booming dog running industry. While many have succeeded without my help, many have not. For each success story, twice as many dog runners fail. I, too, really struggled when starting out. Since then, however, my business has thrived! I’ve spent years endlessly researching, tweaking, and revising it in an attempt to craft the most perfect dog running business possible with the most effective marketing. Eventually I succeeded!

I realized I had something of great value to share with other runners and thus Dog Runner Jobs was born! Currently, I live in Miami Beach, Florida, where I just started my second dog running business, Miami Dog Walkers.
