What do you love most about your job?
I love connecting with clients and helping them to establish a genuine bond with their canine companions.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I felt that working with other companies I wasn't able to give individual clients the time and energy each needed. Now as a business owner I am able to commit myself to each client and their dog in order to meet the families training and behavioral needs.
Why should our clients choose you?
I use proven, science-supported techniques to bring success to the human-dog training relationship. Through positive reinforcement techniques, clients consistently tell me they feel they understand their dog better and have a more fulfilling and enjoyable relationship.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I provide in-person dog training services to clients located in Manhattan under 96th street. I provide online services to clients located outside of my service area. All separation anxiety services are also conducted online.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I am vaccinated and offer clients the option of choosing mask preferences.
Separation Anxiety Training
Does your dog bark and cry when left home alone? We're here to help. Through virtual and app-based training strategies we can help you to help your dog feel safe and comfortable when left home alone.
Puppy Training
Bringing home a new puppy can be very exciting but also somewhat daunting. We help new parents learn all they need to know to set their puppy up for the rest of their lives. Skills that are covered include housebreaking, crate training, separation skills, and basic manners.
Basic Manners Dog Training
Do you have an adult dog that jumps up on people or steals food from the counter? We can help with that! Many wonderful family dogs have never experienced any kind of training or need a little refresher. We teach clients how to instill polite, calm behaviors in their older pups.
Behavior Modification Dog Training
If your dog is experiencing fear or stress on a regular basis this may result in some abnormal or unwanted behaviors. It can be especially challenging living with a dog who is exhibiting behaviors like barking and lunging when on leash or fear of the outdoors. We help clients teach their dogs how to feel safe and confident around previously triggering stimuli.
