How It Works
Option 1: If you’re unsure if we are a good fit or even where to get started, schedule a Free Discovery Call
In this 15-minute call, we’ll take the time to discuss your dog’s specific challenges and your training goals. I’ll help you understand how I’d approach your issues and together, we’ll determine if my training methods are the right fit for you and your dog. No pressure, just a conversation to see how we can build confidence and calm, one step at a time.
Option 2: Schedule an Initial Consultation
Start here if you’re unsure you're ready for the full training process. All new clients start with a 90-minute initial consultation where we cover your dog’s history, concerns, and goals. After your consultation and each subsequent session, you will receive a follow-up including actionable, personalized training plans and resources to support your learning journey.
Option 3: Schedule a Package
Choose a package if your dog has multiple issues to work through. Packages include the 90-minute initial consultation, followed by additional 60-minute sessions (the number of sessions varies on the package).
Meet with me virtually for private, 1-on-1 sessions designed to set you and your dog up for success. During these live, interactive sessions, I will guide you step-by-step as you train your dog in real time. You will receive personalized advice, demonstrations, and feedback tailored to your dog's unique needs. Each session will be recorded and included in your training plan, which will be emailed to you afterward.

Our Mutual Aid Fund is built on the principles of shared responsibility and community care. When you're able, you can contribute a little extra to help another dog parent access our services. This collaborative model allows us to create an inclusive space where every member of our community can grow and thrive.

When booking our services, you’ll notice a few extra questions at the end of our history form.

If you're in a position to contribute, we invite you to support our community by making a voluntary donation through our dedicated Donorbox page. Your generosity empowers more dog parents to receive the help they need, creating a cycle of shared care and empowerment.
Your extra contributions help create a cycle of support within our community, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to move from reactive to calm and confident.

Absolutely! Remote training focuses on coaching you to communicate effectively with your dog. Because dogs learn best in their home environment, remote training can actually reduce stress and lead to faster progress. Plus, you’ll develop skills to handle challenges long-term. As we say, it doesn’t matter if we can get your dog to do something; it only matters if you can.
Remote training is ideal for a variety of challenges, including:
- Reactivity to people, dogs, or other triggers
- Separation anxiety
- Leash pulling or jumping
- Basic obedience and manners
- Confidence-building for shy or anxious dogs
We will discuss your specific behavior issues during your Initial Consultation.
A behavior modification journey involves much more than simply training your dog. It requires time and effort from all members of the household; the humans play an essential role in the process alongside the dogs.
Your dog behavior training will include several components: gathering history, thorough discussions with me to create a sustainable plan, management strategies, education, and skill-building for both you and your dog.
We will break down more challenging techniques into smaller, manageable steps and build upon skills that have already been learned. This approach will help everyone learn effectively. We will meet you where you are in your training journey and proceed at a pace that is comfortable for both you and your dog, ensuring your success.
Yes, practice is key to success! After each session, you’ll receive clear, step-by-step instructions to continue working with your dog. Don’t worry—I’ll provide all the guidance and resources you need as well as between session check-ins and support.
No problem! I’ll help you get set up before your first session and make sure you feel comfortable using the video platform. If you ever run into issues, I’m just a message away.
Every dog and situation is different, but many clients notice positive changes after just a few sessions. Consistency and practice are key, and I’ll be with you every step of the way to ensure progress.
Force-free training uses science-backed methods that emphasize kindness, trust, and understanding. Instead of punishment, we focus on rewarding desirable behaviors and building a strong, positive relationship with your dog.
Yes! If you have multiple dogs, we can create a plan to address their individual needs while helping them work together. Let’s discuss this during your Initial Consultation to ensure the sessions are tailored for success.
It’s easy! Just click here to schedule your Initial Consultation. I’ll talk about your goals, answer any questions, and create a personalized training plan that fits your lifestyle.
No worries! This is true for many folks starting out. Sign up for our upcoming workshop, Calm & Confident: Overcoming Reactive Dog Behavior and check out our Resources page.
