Puppy Training : One on One
Bringing home a puppy is such an exciting moment, full of cuddles, little paws, and big dreams. But let’s be honest... it can also feel a little overwhelming.
One minute they’re melting your heart, the next they’re chewing your socks, your jumper, your keys, and yep, they’ve just peed on the carpet even though you swear they went outside five minutes ago.
We get it. We’ve been there. That’s why we’ve created puppy programs that meet you exactly where you are, whether you’re looking for the basics or you’re ready to dive deep into training.
Our one-on-one Puppy Programs (For Puppies Up to 1 Year Old) are designed to guide you through the ups, downs, and “what do I do now?!” moments of puppyhood. We’ll help you build a strong, positive foundation with training that’s customized to your pup’s unique personality, and works with your family’s lifestyle.
You don’t have to figure it all out on your own. We’re here to help you and your puppy grow, learn, and enjoy the journey together.
Dog Training : One on One
Our approach is grounded in compassion, not control, and tailored to fit your dog’s unique needs and your real-life challenges.
If you’re here, chances are things feel hard right now. Maybe walks have become stressful instead of relaxing. You might find yourself avoiding certain routes, scanning the street before stepping outside, or timing your day around when the world is quiet enough for your dog to cope. Having guests over may feel out of reach. You may feel stuck at home, exhausted by constant barking, destructive behavior, or the guilt of leaving your dog alone.
Maybe your dog pulls on leash, can’t settle, jumps on visitors, or seems to go from 0 to 100 in a second. They might bark nonstop, chew through doors, escape from the yard, or struggle to be alone. Whatever it looks like, it’s overwhelming, and it’s okay to say that out loud.
You’re not alone, and you’re not failing. These behaviors are often signs of deeper needs, unmet emotions, or simply a dog who doesn’t yet know how to cope. We’re here to help uncover what’s really going on and guide your dog toward feeling safe, calm, and connected.
This isn’t about fixing a “bad” dog. It’s about helping you both breathe a little easier. And that change starts here.
Smart Walks : Ongoing Training
More than just a walk, this service offers your dog a chance to learn, play, and grow, all while you're busy with your day. Designed to support your dog’s training goals, these sessions blend calm, structured walking with fun and purposeful learning.
What’s Included:
Skill Building: We reinforce and build on your dog’s existing skills like loose-leash walking, recall, and focus, even around distractions such as bikes, dogs, or busy streets.
Play & Enrichment: Confidence-building games and activities tailored to your dog’s personality.
Easy & Flexible: Pick-up and drop-off included when suitable.
Tailored for Every Dog: All dogs are welcome! If your dog experiences anxiety or reactivity, let us know in advance so we can discuss whether a more personalized plan would suit them better.
You don’t need to be home, we’ll take care of everything. Your dog gets the benefit of gentle, positive guidance and consistent support, and you get peace of mind knowing they're in caring, professional hands.
*Each session is 60min long and priced at 65$.
