From Pawdicures To Big Feelings I’ve Got You.
Dogs may hog the spotlight —only because dog moms keep me booked and busy.
But every species gets the VIP treatment around here.
welcome to my pink vet med world!
Hi, I’m Tania, LVT
Licensed Veterinary Technician, Fear Free Certified Professional, and Cooperative Care Trainer (CARE-TC™ KD), here to make caring for your pet less stressful, less confusing, and much more manageable.
With experience across ICU, emergency, neurology, internal medicine, oncology, and surgery, I’ve learned the little tricks that make complicated care easier, from medications and treatments to organizing discharge instructions.
Because your pet’s care may be a priority, but it shouldn’t become your second full-time job. If you’d rather have someone qualified handle the complicated stuff while you work, rest, travel, or simply enjoy your pet, I’m here. ✨
Know more about me
When I started my vet tech journey, I thought it would be a piece of cake. Spoiler: it was more like baking from scratch without a recipe.
Between endless studying, crazy medical vocabulary, and fostering rescue animals with my besties, I found my own way of making complicated information finally make sense and passed the VTNE on my first try.
I’m still learning every day. Still growing.
I have two cats (you’ll see them around here, my little chaos professors) who taught me firsthand that even when you know everything about animal health, being a pet parent is emotional overwhelming and… honestly? Hard.
That’s why I built Barkcademy: for busy pet parents who want trusted support, families navigating chronic illness or recovery, and future vet nurses who deserve to learn without drowning in flashcards.
Around here, we’re making vet med easier, pinker, and less stressful decorated with pink glitter, obviously.
Welcome to Barkcademy. You love your pet. I’ll help you handle the complicated stuff.
Want a calm, fear-free start for you and your dog?
This guide outlines the same science-based steps used by professional CPDT-KA, and Fear-Free trainers, but with a real-life touch.
I am a Fear Free Certified Trainer + CARE-TC Certified. I do not have the CPTD-KA certification but I use their methods when teaching.
My approach is rooted in science-based learning theory, animal behavior, low-stress handling, and real clinical experience.

Posted on Google Sujanya RavishankarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t recommend Tania enough for boarding as well as training. Our 1 year old high energy dog Papdi was so happy with her she was actually looking for Tania once we brought her back home! Tania actually kept up with Papdi’s training while we boarded her. She is also so in tune with all the enrichment, exercise and training a dog needs which allowed us to not worry about Papdi when we were traveling ! She also has some great alternatives and suggestions up her sleeve tailored to your dog which is super nice and she really goes above and beyond sending updates and pictures! Thank you, Tania from Papdi and I! 🙂❤️Posted on Google DanielTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tania is Great Always takes excellent care of my cat Toñito.Posted on Google Taylor RussellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tania is the best! As an anxious dog mom, I have no worries leaving Rosie with Tania and we always come back to a more well behaved pup! I recommend her to everyone!! I would give more than 5 stars if I could.Posted on Google Gaby GarciaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tania es asombrosa, ha ayudado muchísimo a mis perros y también a mí a entenderlos mejor. Como amante de los perros, me encanta conocer a alguien con el mismo amor por ellos y que te pueda guiar para mejorar su convivencia y vida diaria. Mis perros la adoran <3Posted on Google Surbhi KoshalTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our dog boarded with Tania for almost a month and a half and we were absolutely carefree. We had known Tania as she had trained our dog earlier and also boarded with her for short durations, so we knew she was the right person to take care of Coco while we were out of the country. She went above and beyond with her care, routine and training. We definitely recommend her!Posted on Google Michelle SolisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tania is the only person I trust with my fur babies. She’s compassionate & kind with them & you can tell she loves them as her own. She’s also very knowledgeable about training & has helped me & my puppy tremendously. We love her!!Posted on Google LizTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I love Tania! The last time she pet sat for me I had 5 adult cats and three kittens in my home. She managed all of them perfectly, and, being a veterinary technician she was able to tell that the kittens had fleas, which I was then able to treat. The combination of her love for animals and her veterinary knowledge make her a wonderful pet sitter. With Tania, I am totally confident that my babies get the most skilled, loving, and reliable care while I'm away. She treats my babies as if they are her own 😻Posted on Google Viridiana Zequeida SuasteguiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a first-time dog owner, Tania has been invaluable. She's incredibly knowledgeable about training for pets of all sizes and has helped me with not only my 90-pound dog but also my cats! She taught me several tricks to keep my pets enriched and happy. I trust her completely with my furry family, whether she's walking them or boarding them. She is one of the best pet sitters I've ever had, and I always feel at ease knowing they're with her. I highly recommend her!Posted on Google Bethany MooreTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tania is amazing! She is very attentive and took amazing care of my 4 dogs. 10/10 recommend!Posted on Google Dana Elisa Rodriguez AlvarezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When I first got my puppy I didn't know where to start her training and Tania was my best option, she gave me advice on how to train my puppy so she can be on her best behavior. Not only that, but she also gave me tips to keep her healthy such as the best food for her, the correct amount of food and more. She is an excellent teacher and an excellent dog trainer.
