Private In-Person Dog & Puppy Training
Training programs are customized to you and your dog’s needs. My training method is science-based positive reinforcement performed with patience, kindness, and compassion, teaching you how to build a stronger, happier relationship with your pup through learning, interaction, and enrichment. Whatever your goals—improving your dog’s behavior, teaching new skills, strengthening the bond between you and your pup—I can help you.
Choose from private one-on-one coaching sessions with you and your dog or day training, where I work with your dog during the week and coach you on how to continue the work and maintain particular behaviors.
All training programs begin with an initial consultation, where I will take a complete history of your dog and the presenting problem and help you set realistic expectations for improvement.
I will visit your home for the first behavior consultation to evaluate your pup. One session can make a big difference, and together we can decide if the package is the best option for your goals and lifestyle.
Private Training - I'll teach You
One-on-one puppy or adult dog training and behavior modification. Following the initial consultation, we will then schedule follow-up sessions so I can continue coaching you through the training program.

Day Training - I'll train your Dog
We will come to your home 3 days per week and directly work with your pup. At the end of every week, you will have a transfer session with you and your dog to pass on what your dog learned that week, how and when to use it, and ways to progress and maintain the behavior in the future. A minimum 2-week program includes an initial consultation.

Walk & Train
Is your dog not quite ready for our famous Adventure Hikes? Does your dog need to learn to come when called? Would you need help with teaching your dog walking skills? During these training walks, we can teach your dog leash manners, polite greetings, and recall with mild distractions. This program may not be suited for dogs or puppies that need profound training. This is a 45-minute training walk with approximately half of the time dedicated to training. I recommend at least 3 training walks per week and a transfer session at the end of each week.

I am a Certified Professional Dog Trainer, a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers, an AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Evaluator, and a STAR Puppy Evaluator. I have been professionally training dogs since 2021.
Utilizing reward-based training techniques, you will learn how to manage the environment and manipulate consequences to shape the desired behavior in your dog. You will learn how to manage unwanted behavior while teaching your dog alternative behaviors. You will learn how, by satisfying your dog’s natural desires, you can have a calmer, happier dog and a happier you.
My mission is to improve communication skills between you and your dog and help you to build a stronger, happier relationship.
