Training Support

Let’s keep up the good work!

Behavior-focused training programs & force-free pet care; working together so you can live your best life with your dog.

You’re here because your dog needs more than just a pet sitter. They need someone who truly understands dog behavior, reactivity, and anxiety and can meet them where they are.

You’re here because you want a pet sitter that understands your dog’s unique needs and will work to make them feel safe while you’re away.

But what happens when you get home? Wouldn’t it be great to continue the work and support your dog throughout your daily lives together?

Part of what makes me the pet sitter I am is that I’m also a professional dog trainer. My training expertise is focused on dogs with big feelings - reactivity, anxiety, over-excitement, or even just the daily challenges of adolescence.

Utilizing my dog training services in conjunction with pet sitting helps maintain consistency for your dog. I build trust with them and learn their needs and challenges.

And you don’t have to worry about hiring another trainer who promises big behavior change, but just uses forceful and aversive tools and techniques on your dog.

Reactivity

Embarrassed by your dog’s big feelings? Joined the midnight dog walking club because of your dog’s barking and lunging on leash? Stopped having guests over because of reactions to strangers and friends?

You’re at the end of your leash with your dog’s behavior. I’ve been there - having a reactive or overexcited dog makes life hard.

But it doesn’t have to be.

Enrichment Programs

Calling all counter surfers, yard diggers, and shoe chewers! Are you ready to get FEMA involved with your disaster site cleanup? Or maybe your dog is on temporary rest recovering from surgery, is getting older, or is just slowing down.

If your dog needs a job, Indeed is not the answer. But an enrichment program just might be, and I’m excited to bring out your dog’s full potential.

Muzzle Fitting & Training

Is your dog a scavenger of that sweet Sacramento “street meat?” Maybe your dog just needs a little extra space from two- and four-legged strangers? Does your dog have a bite history or feel nervous at the vet?

Good dogs wear muzzles for many reasons!

Muzzles help everyone feel safe, so let’s get your dog fitted for some new gear.
