What do you love most about your job?
Watching dogs finally feel understood—and watching their humans realize they don’t need to be “alpha” to lead, just trustworthy.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Well I can only a credit that to my amazing partner Lauren, who was the one who originally wanted to be a dog trainer after leaving the world of horse training.
Why should our clients choose you?
Because we don’t just train dogs—We teach people how to speak their dog’s language. It’s real-life training with real results, not recycled commands.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yep! Virtual coaching and custom training plans are available for clients anywhere.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
We keep sizes small and only take on a maximum of 4 pups with 2 trainers in the home, sanitize regularly with kennel level disinfectants, and offer virtual support options for anyone who prefers to train from home.
