Certified dog trainer employed by Petco, providing group classes and private training sessions for puppies and adult dogs. I specialize in positive reinforcement techniques to address basic obedience, manners, and common behavior challenges. Teaching skills such as loose leash walking, recall, polite greetings, and building focus in distracting environments. I especially enjoy working with puppies, adolescents, and shy or overly enthusiastic dogs, helping them gain confidence and self-control. My goal is to make training enjoyable as well as effective, while strengthening the bond between pet parents and their dogs through clear communication. Classes are held in-store with opportunities for socialization and real-world training.
