About The Humans

Trish

Approaching 27 years of professional animal training, Trisha Seifried, started her career in one of the most prestigious animal training positions at Sea World and Busch Gardens! After 10 years of developing a background in live animal performance at these incredible organizations, she returned home to start a new adventure! Upon returning home, she was given the opportunity to train cats for commercials representing brands such as Friskies, Cat Chow, Purina One and Pro Plan, and even making an appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel show! Trisha's extensive experience allowed her to follow her dreams and start her own animal talent agency. Her agency, Got Pet-ential, specializes in working with cats and dogs on set and continues to set the bar high in the commercial industry. After years of hearing that "cats can't be trained" and coaching owners on how to succeed with their cats on set, she set out to change the norm and to help everyday cat owners realize their cats potential at home.

Trish is an AKC GCG Evaluator.

Allie is a certifiedTrick Dog Instructor and Animal Actor Evaluator through Do More With Your Dog and an AKC GCG Evaluator.
