Why Dog Owners in Marblehead Choose Me
I got my start in dog training through an apprenticeship with Top Dog Training in Kentucky, and the more I learned, the more I wanted to keep going. I’ve since earned certifications:
- Family Dog Mediator (FDM)
- Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA)
- Licensed Family Paws Parent Educator (FPPE).
A credential that reflects one of my greatest passions: helping families with both dogs and kids thrive together. If you’re expecting a new baby or simply trying to help your children and dog find their groove, this is work I truly love.

FAQs
Do you work with dogs who have behavior problems?
Do you come to me, or do I come to you?
I come to you. In-home training is one of the most effective approaches precisely because that’s where most behavior challenges actually play out. There’s no need to load up the car — I bring everything to your door. With certain behavior issues, we have the option to meet in the community as well.
How do I get started?
Start with a free 20-minute phone consultation. We’ll talk about your dog, what you’re hoping to work on, and whether we’re a good match — no pressure, just a conversation.
