I spent my entire childhood growing up with dogs and have had 3 of my own. They inspired me to pursue dog training alongside my career as a biologist. I’ve previously volunteered and worked as a trainer at the MSPCA and I’m a CPDT-KA certified trainer. I am passionate about working with dogs and their humans on basic obedience as well as problem behaviors, and fear based behavior issues. I am a science backed positive reinforcement trainer using fear free approaches. I am comfortable handling all sizes, ages, breeds, and reactivity levels and would be happy to do a preliminary phone call to make sure we're a good fit for each other's needs. You can be confident that I will treat your pet with the same care and attention I do my own and provide you with the skills to build a long lasting relationship with your pup based on trust. They are a part of the family after all!
