Betsy grew up in Bloomington and has lived in southwest Minneapolis since 1999. She has a B.A. in Psychology and English from the University of Kansas. Nothing makes her happier than spending time with dogs outdoors – it’s free therapy! She can’t believe how many dog and kitty friends she’s made over the last 19 years with These Paws – they all have a very special place in her heart.

Betsy walks very fast – her mom says she always has. When she thinks a dog needs exercise, she gets moving! Betsy plans to keep doing this job until her legs fall off. When she’s not working, she’s hanging out with her own dogs, Huckleberry and Billie. They drive to a different neighborhood every morning to walk and enjoy new scents and scenery. Pack life is the best life!
