In-Person Certified Dog Trainer Services

A Better Relationship Starts With a Certified Dog Trainer

Every dog and owner share a distinct journey, shaped by their own individual experiences and challenges. Sometimes, these differences can lead to misunderstandings or a less-than-ideal partnership.

Our certified dog trainer’s goal is to help you achieve a balanced and compatible relationship with your pet through professional, science-based methods.

We begin with an initial consultation with certified dog trainer, Jane Gerard. As a certified professional, Jane will thoroughly assess your dog and learn more about their environment, giving you a solid grasp on achievable outcomes so you know what to expect. Our certified dog trainer will then explore the desired behaviors you wish to see and determine which training track is best for your intended results.

Rates: $120 for initial consultation with a certified dog trainer / $85 per follow-up training session
