About Rachel
Professional Dog Trainer & Behavior Consultant
You’ll benefit from my nearly 10 years of teaching a variety of topics to humans. Enjoy easy-to-follow instructions, hands-on demonstrations, and purposeful tasks that get you closer to your goals every week. Everything in our sessions will be tailored just for you and your pet.
My Approach
I use positive reinforcement-based techniques to teach you and your pet new skills. You’ll leave our sessions with the ability to teach your pet skills at home with love and kindness.
My Process
Regardless of the training you select, I set you up for success and gradually introduce challenges to strengthen the goal behaviors we’re working toward. For example, you’ll be able to get your dog to sit at home and at the vet.
My Plan for You
We’ll work side by side to create simple, helpful solutions that you can live with and that bring back the joy of living with your pet. You’ll have strong support the whole way through.
