At our pet training service, we are passionate about transforming the lives of pets and their owners with our innovative open enrollment program. With over three years of experience since our establishment in June 2020, we have developed a reputation for providing top-notch training tailored to meet the unique needs of each pet. Our team is proudly affiliated with the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT), ensuring that we adhere to the highest standards of pet care and training. We specialize in a wide range of services, including dog agility training, obedience training, therapy dog foundation, and behavior modification for cats, chickens, dogs, and even horses. Whether your dog is a tiny pup under 20 lbs or a gentle giant over 80 lbs, we have the expertise to help.

Our flagship offering is the 10-week beginner series, priced at an unbeatable $255, or even less with our various discounts and barter options to promote inclusivity within the community. We understand that each pet parent has unique needs, which is why we provide the flexibility to start classes immediately, whether you have a new puppy as young as eight weeks or a recently adopted rescue dog. From deterring unwanted behaviors to preparing your canine companion for show performances and agility trials, our comprehensive training methods utilize positive reinforcement techniques such as clickers, praise, toys, and treats. Our mobile services ensure that we can conveniently come to you, making the training process as seamless and enjoyable as possible.
