Foundations & Manners
Help your dog build essential skills for everyday life. From leash manners and reliable recall to polite house or patio behaviour, these sessions set the stage for a well-mannered, happy companion. If you’re starting fresh or refining the basics - we can cover a range of behaviours depending on your lifestyle goals! We’ll focus on areas where your dog needs the most support and set goals that will be achievable for your dog.
Why choose private sessions with me?
When we work one-on-one, your dog learns in a low-stress, personalized setting—no one-size-fits-all plans, just what works for your dog.
Private sessions mean less overwhelm and more progress, without the chaos of a busy group class.
We train where it matters most: your home, neighbourhood, or local park—real-life spaces where your dog needs confidence.
You’ll get individualized coaching and plenty of hands-on practice with me right there to guide you every step of the way.
You’ll get hands-on coaching, flexible scheduling, and ongoing support even after your sessions end. I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
How do I get started?
1. Book Your FREE Discovery Call
Let’s start with a no-pressure chat so we can get to know each other better and outline what you'd love to achieve with your dog.
2. Schedule your Behaviour Audit (All new clients start here)
This initial session is our deep-dive into your dog’s behaviour. In order to change any behaviour, we need to understand why it’s occurring in the first place. You’ll walk away from this with a new understanding of your dog and a fresh perspective on training. We’ll explore:
Dog Behaviour Theory: why your dog is behaving a certain way and how to address it
Your dog’s routine and how it effects their emotions and actions
Your goals as a dog guardian so I can provide you with a customized training plan tailored to your lifestyle
Investment: $189.00 for a 90 min session
3. Follow-up with 3x Coaching Sessions
From there, we’ll work together session by session, building hands-on skills, confidence, and connection with your dog. I’ll be with you every step of the way, offering support and guidance. In these sessions, I will:
Coach you through handling skills and strategies
Adjust and refine strategies as your dog grows, learns, and responds
Help you troubleshoot challenges in real-time - because life can be unpredictable
Build your confidence as a handler and how to stay motivated
Investment: $378.00 for all 3 sessions (45 min each)
