Private Training
One hour private session at a public space or your home.
I offer 1 hour free consultations for all new clients!
Day Training
I will work with your dog(s) for a predetermined amount of time on their training. Your presence is not required but always welcomed! Many people prefer to have a trainer work with their dog while they’re away at work as one of the benefits of day training is that your dog gets in both training and mental & physical enrichment.
A free 1-hour consultation is required before day training can start. This gives me an opportunity to meet and get to know your dog, talk with you about a plan, and identify goals for your dog.

Pricing
$40/hour for private training
Other trainers in Bellingham charge $60-100/hour, but many of them have years more experience with me or have formal training/certifications. I am currently working towards a Certification for Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed which requires 300 hours of dog training prior to taking the certification exam.
My current rate reflects my experience working with shelter, rescue, and wildlife rehabilitation.
If you reside outside of Bellingham city limits, I charge $10/hour for travel. I am always happy to meet at a park or another public location closer to minimize travel costs.
Rescue Rehabilitation discount:
Planning on adopting soon? Did you recently bring home a rescue dog and want to help them settle in better? Did you adopt a few months ago and now are seeing changes in their behavior?
I offer half-priced training for all rescued dogs. You gave them a second chance; I want to help you both find balance and joy without breaking the bank.
Good Neighbor discount:
If you’re located in the Fairhaven, Happy Valley, and South Hill neighborhoods of Bellingham, I offer half priced training.
Sliding Fee discount:
If you are serious about training and are willing to put in the work with your dog(s), please select the free or low-cost option in your training inquiry.
