In-Home Private Training
The benefits of having your own personal dog trainer
It’s a simple equation:
Customized training plan
No two dogs are the same. No two people or families are either. I adapt to you—your goals, your lifestyle and your dog.
No time-consuming classes or travel
I come to your home at your convenience. Or, even better, your dog comes to stay with me in mine.
On-going support
I’ll never leave you hanging. I’ll be here for you throughout the training process, and if you need me, beyond.
Real results
That’s my goal for you, and why I do things the way I do—real, lasting results at home and out in your community. What’s the point, otherwise?
Peace of mind
You know you have a reliable professional dedicated to your training goals—your own personal dog trainer.
Choose your customized training package
Choose the package that’s right for you, then we’ll adapt the plan to fit you just right.
The foundation of your program is laid during your consultation. It is a stand alone session with zero pressure to commit to a program.
The Good Dog
This program is perfect for basic obedience around mild distractions. It’s also ideal for puppies. In addition to basic obedience, puppies get all the benefits of my Puppy Starter program. This includes housebreaking, crate training, and how to keep puppies from chewing, biting and all of those other less-than-adorable puppy antics. Your dog will learn:
- 3 commands: Sit/stay, Down/stay, Place (go to bed)
- Come when called (on leash)
- We work on impulse control — no busting through open doorways or plowing down the stairs
What you get
- 3 PRIVATE SESSIONS in your home
- PLUS: Detailed email notes, training equipment*, 3 months of phone/email support and 3 months access to client portal**
The Calm Dog
This is the program you need if you want your dog to behave politely around moderate distractions. Whether you have visitors or are just trying to eat dinner with the family, the calm dog does NOT jump on guests or beg at the table. Your dog will learn:
- 4 commands: Sit/stay, Down/stay, Place (got to bed), Leave it
- Come when called (on leash)
- Loose leash walking
- We work on impulse control — stopping naughty behaviors such as digging, barking, and counter surfing
What you get

The Zen Dog
This program is similar in structure to Calm Dog, but is ideal if you’re looking for rock solid obedience no matter how distracting or demanding the situation. You’ll be able to get work done around the house, even kick back and enjoy company. On top of that, you’ll be able to take your dog anywhere and feel confident in his behavior. Your dog will learn:
- Unlimited commands: Sit/stay, Down/stay, Place, Heel, Touch, Leave it, etc.
