Certified Private Dog Behavior Consultants & Trainers - Ringwood, NJ
As a fully certified and insured professional in Dog Obedience Training and Pet Behavior Modification, I am dedicated to enhancing the lives of both pets and their parents. With credentials from the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC), the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT), and the Pet Professional Guild (PPG), I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to each session. Since May 2021, I have been passionately serving the pet community, helping to transform challenging behaviors into harmonious living experiences for dogs of all sizes, from under 20 lbs to over 80 lbs.
My force-free, positive reinforcement techniques are designed to guide you and your furry friend toward a more peaceful and understanding relationship. I offer personalized in-home sessions, including a 6-session package for more extensive goals, and a 3-session package for minor issues. For those seeking a comprehensive solution, my popular two-week board and train program is a perfect choice. As I travel within a specific radius to provide these services, I ensure that every pet parent receives the convenience and flexibility they need. Additionally, I understand that life can be unpredictable, so I offer a flexible cancellation policy with 48 hours notice required.
If you're ready to embark on a journey toward a happier and more obedient pet, I invite you to book my private dog training services through Petworks. Let's work together to achieve the results you want while understanding your dog's unique perspective. Ready to get started? Book me through Petworks today!
