Private Dog Behavioral Training - In Home K9 Trainers - Raleigh, NC
Welcome to my pet training services! As a CTA Certified Dog Trainer (CCDT) and IACP Certified Dog Trainer (IACP CDT), I specialize in in-home, residency on and off-leash behavioral training that seamlessly translates to real-world settings. With over six years of experience since 2017, I have dedicated my career to helping pet parents like you confidently take your furry friends anywhere, regardless of typical distractions. I provide tailored training for all sizes of dogs, from those under 20 lbs to over 80 lbs, ensuring that every dog receives personalized attention and care.
In addition to my comprehensive behavioral training, I also offer specialized programs in Therapy Dog Training and Private Puppy Programs. My goal is to reinforce good manners and skills through engaging, real-life scenarios. I understand that life can be hectic, which is why I also provide dog-staycations, daily walking, and pet sitting services carried out by my trained and dedicated staff. I ensure that every interaction is a positive reinforcement of your pet's training, making it a win-win for both you and your furry companion!
I proudly serve pets within a flexible travel radius, and I offer convenient online sessions as an option for those who prefer training from the comfort of their home.
