CPDT-KA Certified Trainer
Pet care experience
I am a professionally certified local dog trainer! I continually educate myself about modern positive reinforcement techniques, and you can rest assured that every moment your dog spends with me will be fun and filled with active, beneficial learning. After walking with me your dog will be more well-behaved, with less pulling, lunging, & barking!
Reviews
Emily is a natural at pet-care and training. Her empathy and expertise shines through in the compassionate way she treats them. She has experience tending beloved furry pets, feathered friends, farm animals, and aquatic critters.
Emily has a way with dogs! My pup always gets excited when she's around, even though he's usually nervous around other people. It's a pleasure to work with her.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am a CPDT-KA certified, educated, and experienced dog trainer. I have in-depth knowledge about necessary safety equipment such as leashes, harnesses, collars, crates, and fencing. If you do not have a fully fenced-in yard, I can also provide a 20-foot leash to practice safe recall and allow for safe playtime under observation. Your pet's safety is my top priority!
Information Emily S. would like to know about your pet
As a dog trainer, I almost always have a bag of treats with me. Please let me know if your dog has any allergies or sensitivities and I will choose my treats accordingly! Please also inform me about any medical conditions or recent injuries so I can adjust our activity level if needed.
A typical day
Dog walks should be stimulating and fun! It is almost impossible to walk a dog to exhaustion, even dogs that aren't particularly high energy. But I make sure to incorporate appropriate exercise (like running up stairs), sniffing adventures for mental stimulation, and socialization to keep your dog feeling fulfilled and happy. It's about the journey, not the destination!
