Private Puppy and Dog Training - Geyserville, CA
Every dog and every household is different, so I come to you. In-home sessions let us work through real situations in the environment where they actually happen, whether that’s a dog who barks at the mail carrier, struggles with separation anxiety, or just needs help with the basics like potty training and leash manners.
Beyond one-on-one training, I offer Neighborhood Walks for dogs who need structured exercise and socialization, and Leave the Leash to Us for owners who want reliable, trustworthy care without the guesswork.
Whether you’re bringing home a new puppy, working through a specific behavior challenge, or simply want a stronger bond with your dog, I’m here to help. Serving Sonoma County with a personal, hands-on approach that’s built on trust rather than intimidation.
Let’s work together to bring out the best in your dog, one wag at a time.
