Phenomenal Dog Trainer
Beyond my CPDT-KA certification, I've logged approximately 1,000 hours training dogs of all ages, from puppies through Canine Good Citizen. I've also earned AKC obedience and sporting titles with my own dogs, including training my German Shepherd in French Ring. My greatest passion is coaching people to become confident trainers for their own dogs, giving you the knowledge, confidence, and skills to build a stronger relationship with your dog and achieve lasting results.

What to expect
Consultation
Your initial consultation includes a complimentary introductory phone call to discuss your goals, your dog's history, and answer any questions. During our 90-minute consultation, we'll evaluate your dog's current skills and behavior, prioritize your goals, and together we will create a personalized training roadmap designed to set both you and your dog up for success.
Sessions
Each training session is hands-on, interactive, and tailored to your progress. I'll demonstrate each exercise, coach you through the techniques, and provide immediate feedback as you practice with your dog. My goal is not only to teach your dog new skills, but to give you the knowledge, confidence, and tools to continue making progress long after our sessions are over. Between sessions, you'll receive simple practice games and exercises that fit into your daily routine. Just a few minutes of consistent practice each day can lead to lasting results.

My CPDT-KA certification reflects my commitment to professional, evidence-based dog training and ongoing continuing education. I use positive, reward-based methods tailored to each dog's personality, learning style, and your goals. There's nothing more rewarding than helping dogs and their families build clear communication, confidence, trust, and skills that last a lifetime.
