Private Lessons
One-on-One 60-Minute Lesson
We will create a training plan after our first session that is catered to your dog’s needs and your goals. Our training plan will help you see your progress along our training journey. My focus is to teach both you and your dog how to achieve the best life together. The path towards that is not the same for every individual or dog. We are all unique individuals; it is my job to help create smooth communication between your dog and your family with a tailored, cultivated training plan for your success.
Day Training
Do you have a busy schedule but your dog needs a bit of adventure and maybe even a little training? This might be the right fit for you! A day training session can be anything from an introduction to basic obedience cues like sit or door manners, a walk that focuses on leash manners while smelling a few flowers and watching people pass by, or even just a night outing/adventure while you are at work. Just like daycare you get an update to how their session went. Feel free to reach out if you have questions.

Board and Train Programs
Board & Train — 2-Week Program
Our 2-week Board & Train welcomes your dog into the trainer’s home for intensive, hands-on learning in a warm, attentive environment. With the same reliable behavior and obedience results you expect from our standard programs, this option gives your dog consistent practice, positive reinforcement, and individualized support from a caring professional. It’s perfect for families who prefer a fully immersive experience and want their dog to build confident, well-mannered habits in a structured, home-like setting.
What’s Included
Initial Meet & Greet: A pre-program meeting at your home (or virtually if needed) to evaluate your dog, discuss goals, review medical/behavior history, and cover logistics.
Two Weeks of Boarding & Training: Your dog stays at the trainer’s home for daily, focused sessions that cover the agreed-upon obedience and behavior goals. Training is customized to your dog’s temperament, age, and needs, using positive, reward-based methods.
Go-Home Lesson: A comprehensive in-person lesson at your home on the day your dog returns. You’ll learn how to maintain and reinforce the skills your dog learned while boarding.
Follow-Up Lesson: One in-home follow-up lesson scheduled after you’ve had time to practice at home. This session refines skills, addresses questions, and ensures consistency.
Progress Reports: Regular updates during the boarding period, including notes on progress, challenges, and tips to prepare for the go-home lesson.
Personalized Training Plan: A take-home plan outlining commands taught, reinforcement strategies, troubleshooting tips, and a practice schedule.

What Success Looks Like At the end of the 2-week Board & Train, your dog will return with improved obedience, reliable manners in common household situations, better leash behavior, and tools for impulse control. The go-home and follow-up lessons ensure you can translate the trainer’s work into everyday life to maintain long-term success.
