Certified Canine Massage Therapist - Bloomington, IL

Verified Member since Apr 2025 Verified checkmark

Happy Feet Canine provides years of experience in canine training, massage, and overall care.

Owner, Sara Taylor, NCCMT grew up in Carlock, IL near Bloomington-Normal, IL with dogs her whole life but didn’t really fall in love with dogs until she got her first Border Collie, Samson in 2016.

Sara knew that having a Border Collie meant that she would need to get him trained and keep him active. Through this love she joined the local kennel club and became a dog trainer. You can often see her there on Monday nights when class is in session helping other dog owners connect with their dogs.

Soon after bringing Samson home he got very sick and Sara decided to do what was needed to make sure he was always comfortable. Once they were able to figure out what was wrong with Samson he was able to go on and have fun playing in the ring with Sara at agility trials. It was at an agility trial that Sara met her first Canine Massage Therapist and she was hooked! Sara then studied at Canis Bodyworks and became nationally certified through the National Board of Certification for Animal Acupressure and Massage (NBCAAM) for Canine Massage.
