Tamara Gansz

Dog trainer in Chicago

Support your dog trainer by sharing your story

Tamara Gansz has been obsessed with dogs since her earliest days. While her degree is in Art History, she started Pets-Chicago, a dog walking company, in 2003 and has been humbled and learning every day through the beauty of the animals she cares for. Leeloo, Jinx and Sevro are Tamara's three rescue dogs and each has been a beacon for her to dive deeper and learn more. Leeloo, a therapy dog with Canine Therapy Corp, started and learned all of her fundamentals through Anything is Pawzible and for Tamara, the ultimate success was being able to be a part of AIP's team. There is not a day that goes by where dogs aren't at the epicenter of Tamara's universe (much to the chagrin of her husband and two wonderful teenagers). 18 years of dog walking and boarding gave Tamara the landscape to see the amazing complexity of dogs and training is a stepping stone to communicate and understand our furry companions on a deeper level.
