Christine Pazdalski | The Pet Behaviorist - Nationwide
I’m Christine Pazdalski, a certified animal behavior consultant and professional dog trainer providing compassionate, science-based pet behavior support through convenient online consultations. I earned my certificate in Applied Animal Behavior from the University of Washington. I'm a Fear Free Certified Pet Professional and Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA). I help pet parents understand the “why” behind challenging behavior and create practical, customized plans that fit real life.
Whether you’re dealing with a shy or reactive dog; separation-related distress; puppy overwhelm; obedience concerns; or a cat with litter box challenges, I provide immediate guidance and clear next steps. My behavior modification approach uses only humane, fear-free, reward-based tools and techniques—including treats, toys, praise, barriers, and appropriate harness or collar options—to build confidence and lasting positive change.
I work with dogs, cats, and a wide variety of companion and farm animals, including birds, rabbits, reptiles and more. As a member of the CCPDT and IAABC, I’m committed to knowledgeable, ethical care for every pet and family I serve. Ready to get started? Book me through PetWorks today!

Customer Reviews
Christine was very knowledgeable. No judgement on how I was caring for my cats before (mainly verbal reactions on inappropriate urination) because I am human. All that matters is how I improve moving forward. I’m excited to get both my cats but mainly Luna on the right path to earn back her trust from some common minor mistakes I unknowingly made. I would recommend Christine to anyone!
