Certified Dog Trainer & Walker

Hi, I'm Madison! I'm a certified dog trainer with 4 years of professional experience and nearly 15 years of living with dogs of my own. Every walk I offer is a 30-minute Walk & Train session, not just a stroll around the block. I pop by your home midday (with or without you home), and we work on real skills while we walk: - Loose-leash walking - Focus and check-ins - Calmly passing people, dogs, and distractions - Manners at the door and around the house Does your dog struggle with something specific? We'll talk through your goals up front, so every time I see your pup, we're actively working toward the things that matter most to you. After every session, I send you an update on what we worked on and what you can practice. I specialize in puppies, obedience, and behavior, and I have a soft spot for anxious and reactive dogs. Perfect for busy professionals and families who want a well-behaved pup without adding another thing to their plate!

Safety, trust & environment

Because I offer walks and training, most of my care happens in your home and neighborhood, and I treat both with total respect. Safety always comes first. I follow whatever routine and instructions you give me, so if that means leashed walks, that's exactly what happens, and if it means letting your dog run around in a secure yard, that's what I'll do. I stay fully present and vigilant the entire time, always proactive rather than reactive, so I can catch and prevent anything before it becomes a problem. I'm used to working with dogs, I have great handling skills, and I'll always communicate, send updates, and make sure your dog and your home are exactly how I left them, if not in even better shape. My goal is simple: a calm, safe, happy dog, and a worry-free you.

Schedule

Dog training is my full-time work, so I'm around dogs every single day of the week. That means I have consistent weekly availability, typically from late morning through the late afternoon and into the evening. Because caring for dogs is already my daily routine, your pup fits right in and gets my full attention, along with the same calm, structured care I give every dog I work with.
