Hi, I’m

Corinthian McIntyre

Evansville,IN - Indiana

Summary

I am a caring and passionate dog handler with many years of experience in animal care, as well as dog training. I have an established clientele and repeat customers that appreciate my knowledge of dogs, and are more than satisfied with the results I give. With a background working in kennels, I have a strong knowledge of diverse dog breeds and temperaments. I have worked my way up through the pet industry! From scooping up poop, to working hands on with behavior modification. I have gained knowledge from all corners of the pet industry, which gives me a unique perspective as the target consumer and client.

My professional skills extend outside of work as well. I am actively training and competing in AKC obedience/rally and agility with my personal dogs. I am a confident, experienced, and trustworthy individual with strong morals. I intend to go far in the pet industry and would be a valuable employee for a company looking to expand.
