I can train any dog, any breed and any age!
Are you looking for help with your four legged friend? I would be happy to help. Whether you have a puppy learning how to behave and be respectful, or a reactive/aggressive mid-aged dog with bad habits that prevent you from exploring the world outside of your home, and anything in between, I can help. My method works and is modified based on your training goals and what best fits your everyday lifestyle. Using balanced training techniques, everything begins with obedience and ends with obedience. I can show you how to implement your training throughout everyday, have the whole family on board and watch the pieces start to fall into place to complete a happy harmonious family. Trust the process, stay consistent and absolute with the work you put in and you will succeed.
My name is Lindsay and I have been training professionally for over 7 years. I worked with Calik9 for a few years and have been running my own business for the past 5 year. I have many reputable references and mentors. I am certified in Pet CPR and First Aid and specialize in obedience and behavior management. This has been a lifelong passion for me and being able to help people rebuild their relationship with their dog is what my job is all about.
Training is not temporary, it’s a lifestyle and is just as much teaching the handler as it is the dog, if not more. I would highly recommend(but not limited to) starting at home before taking it into different environments such as the park or a store. Therefore, private sessions would benefit most meeting in your home, once a week, for the first few sessions. Changing up some routines at home can make a big difference. After all, this is where you and your dog spend most of your time together. Dog training is just as much training the owner as it is training the dog, if not more. From there, we can begin to take training outside on walks or at a park, sometimes even shopping centers or stores for more advanced obedience and socialization. My rates vary depending on travel time. I do tend to go over an hour to make sure and answer any questions. My job is to make sure you as the handler understand how to be the best leader your dog needs to succeed. Call today to set up an over the phone evaluation!
Interested in dog walking services, that is a great place to start! Being a trainer, I automatically work on proper leash response with each dog. This means, no pulling or barking and learning to be calm and confident on walks. This is a great way to lightly introduce some training with your pup and gives me an opportunity to evaluate in which areas could be improved, possibly opening the door to some private sessions as well. Proper socialization is so important. I have group or private walks available. Each dog is guaranteed at least an hour out and about with me. Most dog walkers have some limitations with dogs that have some behavior issues. If this applies to you, please let me know, I can help!
If you're looking for someone to come and walk your pup to simply tire them out while adding their daily dose of outside sniffs and enrichment. Not a problem! Call today to set up a weekly/monthly package! You set the days and times that work best for you!

I have two personal dogs one is a service dog trained. Your pup will also get lots of controlled socialization. If your dog is reactive/aggressive toward other dogs, I have the knowledge and resources to help. Lets help get you and your furry friend back on the right track.
Life can hit hard and I understand. I am willing to accommodate with online private sessions/evaluations as needed. With this service I would provide all the same information as if it were an in person session/meet-and-greet/evaluation as well. Feel free to inquire any further via phone/text/e-mail.
More questions? Not a problem. Again, please give me a call/text at any time 925-323-9851 or send an e-mail to with some details about your pup along with your training goals and which service you are interested in. I would be happy to answer them along with send any pictures or videos upon request. My prices are negotiable as I want to help in any way possible. There is no better time than now!
