Lisa is top notch! My pup was not receptive to strangers but warmed up to Lisa quickly. Why? Because she let him come around in his time not forced time. Her love for dogs is obvious and the knowledge she has was immediately visible with her interaction with my fur baby. Milo gets so excited to see Lisa and to go to her facility. It's his favorite place to go. After having a bad experience with a local daycare, I was hesitant to bring someone else into my pups life but I sure picked the right trainer and the right facility. Milo is receptive of strangers and has confidence again to explore and be the puppy he's supposed to be. Check out Lisa and New Era Dog Training, you'll be happy you did and your fur baby will be too.

Ellie is a 2 yr old Black Lab that i adopted when she was approx. 8 months old. she was extremely withdrawn and very fearful. I worked with her on my own, but it took a long time to start to bring her out of her shell. I wish I had found New Era Dog Training a lot sooner. Approx. 4 months ago, I contacted New Era Dog Training and Lisa to help me with Amber, a 2 yr old German Shepherd I adopted as a companion for my Mother. The results with Amber were so incredible that Lisa soon also started working with Ellie. Again, the results were and continue to be life changing for Ellie. Ellie’s confidence level has sky rocketed since working with Lisa. The progress and transformation is absolutely extraordinary!!! I owe it all to Lisa and New ERA DOG TRAINING and Lisa. Lisa is extremely knowledgeable and her technique is superb. She crates a custom and unique plan for each individual dog and its owner. She instructs you as the owner as to what needs to be done so that you can facilitate and continue the training. Lisa and NEW ERA DOG TRAINING are absolutely the best. I highly recommend them and will continue to use NEW ERA DOG TRAINING and LISA to give my dogs absolute best life possible through training with the BEST Trainer!!

I recently worked with Lisa, who transformed my two unruly dogs into calm and obedient companions. Their techniques were clear, effective, and tailored to each of my dogs' individual needs. Not only have my dogs improved dramatically, but I've also learned how to better communicate and maintain consistency with them. Lisa combines professionalism with a genuine passion for animal welfare, making them an exceptional dog trainer. I highly recommend her services to any dog owner seeking positive changes.

- Kate T

I can not recommend highly enough Lisa and New Era! What a patient and knowledgeable and creative gift to this world, and to our furry family members, Lisa is. Thank you for the new dog you’re gifted my family after just one visit. I’m diligent about the enrichment homework I’ve been given because it works! I look forward to our next visit and our outdoor activity.

Recommended Certifications for Dog Trainers


When choosing a dog trainer, professional certifications are a strong indicator of expertise, experience, and commitment to ethical, science-based methods. Widely recognized credentials include the CPDT-KA or CPDT-KSA from the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers, which demonstrate mastery of modern training techniques, canine behavior, and learning theory. The KPA-CTP (Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner) highlights trainers skilled in positive reinforcement and clicker training, while the IAABC Certified Dog Trainer credential, recognized internationally, signals advanced knowledge in behavior modification and problem-solving. Membership or certification through the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT) further reflects ongoing education and adherence to ethical standards. Many trainers also pursue specialty certifications in areas such as aggression management, behavior modification, or puppy development to address specific challenges.


For pet parents, choosing a certified trainer like Lisa Yasenchak , ensures that your dog’s training is grounded in science, safety, and compassion. Asking about a trainer’s credentials is one of the best ways to make a confident, informed choice.
