In-Person & Virtual Sessions Available
Private sessions are designed to meet you and your dog exactly where you are, using a trauma-informed approach to behavior modification that prioritizes safety, trust, and emotional well-being.
Through games-based training, you’ll learn how to turn everyday moments into fun, meaningful learning experiences reducing stress while building real-life skills.
Together, we’ll focus on creating clarity, confidence, and connection on both ends of the leash, so training feels less like a chore and more like something you and your dog genuinely enjoy.
Not every dog (or human) thrives in a group class setting. Private training offers a safe, supportive space designed around your unique needs, whether you're working through specific challenges or building specialized skills.
Dogs who are fearful, reactive, or easily overwhelmed by other dogs or people
Dogs showing big emotional responses like barking, lunging, or shutting down
Working dogs training for Therapy or Service Dog roles
Dogs recovering from past trauma who need a slower, more supportive approach
Owners looking for personalized guidance on specific training goals
Every dog is an individual. While some flourish in group classes, others need a more customized, low-pressure environment to truly succeedand that’s exactly what private sessions provide.
All private training begins with a 90-minute Behavior Evaluation Session ($150). This session allows us to fully understand your dog’s behavior, your goals, and how you and your dog work together as a team.
We’ll discuss your concerns, goals, and your dog’s history
I’ll observe your dog’s natural behaviors in real-life situations
We’ll tailor introductions and interactions based on your dog’s comfort level
When appropriate, we may take a short walk or engage in simple activities to see behavior in motion
This session is intentionally flexible and trauma-informed—designed to reduce stress and allow your dog to show us who they truly are, without pressure.
One-on-one private sessions
A customized combination of training plans and guided exercises
Gradual progression toward real-world scenarios or small group work (if appropriate)
6 Session Package
Private sessions are where learning comes to life for both ends of the leash.
Using games-based training methods, we focus on making training engaging, effective, and enjoyable. Instead of drilling commands, you’ll learn how to:
Build focus, confidence, and calm behavior through play
Teach real-life skills in a way your dog naturally understands
Strengthen your relationship through positive, meaningful interaction
Practicing games you’ve already learned, with gentle coaching and progression
Introducing new games to build specific skills like recall, focus, or calmness
Applying these skills to real-life situations (like walks or being around other dogs)
We move at your dog’s pace, using distance, environment, and thoughtful setups to ensure success; especially for reactive or sensitive dogs.
Sessions can be scheduled on a repeating schedule at the same time and weekly or bi-weekly.
