PET CARE EXPERT
Sabrina Webb
she/her
In 2013 she jumped into the pet dog industry, inspired by her two little mutts Bing and Wiley, and opened Walked Paws dog walking in Vancouver BC.
In 2018 she officially became the “chihuahua lady” when Bear joined the family. Since opening her first business she has been fully invested in continuing education and is a certified dog trainer.
In 2021 she moved to 100 Mile House BC and shifted her focus to improving the quality of the pet care industry through action and community.

Training Philosophy
Sabrina’s training philosophy can be summed up fairly accurately with the label Force and Fear Free. This means that she chooses not to use any methods or tools that utilize pain, fear or intimidation.
When approaching any behaviour or training problem the first step is always to ensure that the emotional and physical needs of the dog are being met consistently.
From there the emphasis is on both management (keeping everyone safe and limiting exposure to triggers) and ethical, science based training that teaches our dogs new coping skills.
