Hello, I'm Ali, your go-to pet professional dedicated to enhancing the bond between you and your furry companions. With over 20 years of experience as a veterinary technician and six years specializing in dog training, I bring a wealth of knowledge and compassion to every session. I'm a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA) and hold certifications as a Fear Free Certified Professional and Low-Stress Handling® Certified – Silver (LSHC-S). My approach is centered around the force-free, choice-based training philosophy, which empowers your dog to communicate their needs and fosters a harmonious relationship between you and your pet.

I am committed to continuous learning, having attended numerous seminars and courses led by veterinary behaviorists. These experiences have enriched my skills in both dog obedience training and pet behavior modification. I offer personalized in-home training sessions and board-and-train options, ensuring that your dog learns in an environment that suits their comfort and needs. Whether you're looking to resolve specific behavioral issues or enhance your pet's obedience skills, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.

I serve a wide range of animals, including dogs, and am flexible in catering to your unique scheduling needs with a cancellation policy designed to accommodate life's unexpected events. My goal is to make every training session a positive and stress-free experience for both you and your pet. Ready to embark on a journey towards a harmonious relationship with your furry friend?
