Dog Training & Behavior Consulting

Pet care experience

Expert dog training tips, reactivity, every day skills, puppies, senior dogs & more. I take a holistic approach to bridging the communication gap between dogs and their counterparts in order to set the foundations for a mutually beneficial life together. I have worked with some of the best dog trainers in the world such as, Tom Davis, Will Atherton and the Monks of New Skete to learn and hone my craft dog training.

Michael's walks are primo-the dog is learning while exercising. Who can ask for more?

Responsive, nice, punctual & a great guy. I was a bit worried cause our pomsky barks and pulls when he sees other dogs. With Michael’s experience, he said our dog didn’t react while passing two dogs by the end of their first walk. He’s awesome and our dog loves his walks :)

Safety, trust & environment

I care for all dogs as if they are my own! I am a dog lover turned dog trainer. I have a fully fenced yard and an indoor area for dogs to train and play. Depending on the level of exercise and stimulation, my neighborhood also offers nature walks and parks for your dog to stretch their legs and enjoy life as a dog! In my training toolbox, I can provide the required equipment to safely introduce new environments to the dog, ultimately helping build their confidence and obedience.

A typical day

I love to teach dogs and stimulate their mind as well as their bodies. We will enjoy walks, playing with toys and puzzles, and many games to keep your dog engaged and happy with his/her walk or stay.
