Our Staff
Sherry Moore
Owner/Manager
Sherry’s journey with That’s My Dog! began in 2002 when she trained her first dog, Ruger. She returned in 2015 to train her black Lab, Otto, and soon became deeply involved in the TMD mission.
With a background as a Veterinary Assistant and Training Manager—and an MBA from Clarke University—Sherry’s passion for animals and business made her a natural fit. She served as General Manager for five years before becoming the proud owner of That’s My Dog! in January 2022.
Today, Sherry leads the TMD team with dedication and vision. When she’s not working, she’s enjoying the outdoors with her husband, Robert, and their dogs, Otto and Miles.

Maddie
Marketing/Social Media Manager
I got my start with dog training when I brought my mini Goldendoodle, Callaway, to TMD. Seeing how much proper training improved her life—and mine—sparked my passion for helping other dogs and their owners.
What I love most about working at TMD is being surrounded by dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities every day. It’s rewarding to watch them grow and thrive through training, daycare, and socialization.
Callaway still attends group classes and daycare weekly, and it’s amazing to see her progress. I graduated from Clarke University in 2025 with a B.A. in Communication and a Marketing emphasis, which helps me connect with clients and support TMD’s mission.
Amanda
Trainer
Amanda’s love for dog training comes from her passion for helping people enjoy life with their dogs—without the stress of behavior issues. While earning her Biology and Geography degree at UW–Platteville, a guest lecture by Robin, former owner of TMD, sparked her interest in dog behavior and launched her training career. Her favorite part of working at TMD is seeing how training builds confidence between dogs and their owners. Outside of work, Amanda stays busy with her husband, kids, two cats (Dolly and Peluche), and a whole crew of farm animals.
Tracy
Trainer
Tracy grew up surrounded by dogs and always had a special love for mixed breeds. After working as a therapist for the elderly, she discovered her passion for dog training while assisting at TMD and soon joined full-time. She loves helping owners build better bonds with their dogs—especially when they can finally enjoy a peaceful walk together. Tracy shares her life with two playful pups, Auggie and Doja, and is a graduate of Robin’s ECademy training program.
Jade
Groomer & Pet Stylist
Growing up on a farm, caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. Although I pursued veterinary technician school, I realized my true passion was grooming. With 2 years of professional grooming experience, I received training and mentorship at my previous job. I’m passionate about working with dogs and building strong relationships with clients. At home, I have two Rottweilers and two cats who are a big part of my family.
Shiloh
Groomer & Pet Stylist
With 3+ years of experience, I specialize in grooming all dog breeds, from small to large. My journey started with my own miniature schnauzer and led to professional training at PetSmart in Illinois. I offer expert grooming services, including haircuts, baths, nail trims, and coat care. Building lasting relationships with clients and ensuring every dog’s comfort is my priority. At home, I have a mini schnauzer and two Australian Cattle Dogs who love hiking.
Aubrey
Day Camp Manager
I’ve had dogs all my life, but my professional journey started at DRHC before I joined the team at TMD. Everything changed when I took in a stray, pregnant husky—raising her puppies and training her sparked a deep interest in dog behavior and care, and I’ve been learning ever since!
What I love most about working at TMD is getting to know each dog on a personal level. I enjoy helping them overcome nervousness—whether it’s being around a group of dogs or trying something new. It’s all about making their day the best it can be.
At home, I have Luna, the husky who started it all. I also have Hollan, my foster “fail” German Shepherd, who has taught me more about dogs—and myself—than I ever expected. I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Biology, which helps deepen my understanding of animal behavior and care.
Maddy
Day Camp Assistant
My journey with dogs began at my first job as a leadout at the Dubuque Greyhound Park, where I worked closely with lots of greyhounds and discovered my passion for animal care. What I love most about working at TMD is getting to spend every day with so many amazing dogs—it never gets old!
At home, I have a fun and unique crew: Queenie, a pitbull mix; Clementine, a lab mix puppy; Gator, my bearded dragon; Indie, a California King Snake; and Sriracha, a hognose snake. Life is never boring with this crew!
Christian
Kennel Manager
I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and when I was ready for a career change, I jumped at the chance to work with them professionally. It’s been one of the most rewarding decisions I’ve made!
What I love most about working at TMD is getting to meet and care for so many different types of dogs—and being surrounded by people who love dogs just as much as I do.
At home, I have Miska, my almost 8-year-old husky. She’s always up for a long hike or walk, loves tug-of-war with any toy she can find, and while fetch isn’t exactly her strong suit, she keeps things fun and unpredictable.
