About
I’m Nick, I’ve been around dogs all my life. Over the last 7 years I’ve worked with fosters, rescues, and other dog trainers to build and rehabilitate dogs. Through those experiences I’ve develop the tools and techniques that I use to successfully train and rehabilitate dogs. If you should choose to work with my team and I, our goal is to work with you to create a strong relationship between you and your dog and to help you develop a well mannered, obedient, and balanced dog.

I highly recommend Nick’s dog training services. 1:1 Very knowledgeable, respectful and super supportive when training my Rottweiler puppy. I got her at 2 months old and was experiencing issues with crate training, the puppy blues, teething, possession of toys and walking nicely. He helped with all of that and more and she’s 9 months old now and is the best puppy. I get so many compliments of how good she is. Not only did he help my puppy with her behaviors he helped me become a more responsible owner so really can’t thank him enough for all the tips. Side note he also makes dope training gear! So it’s basically a 2 for 1 deal. Durable handmade gear you can purchase and an awesome dog trainer all in one person. Book a training with him!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such an incredible experience working with Nick! At our initial session, it was clear how knowledgeable, patient, and passionate he is about dogs and their owners. Nick didn’t just focus on commands—he really helped us understand how to build confidence, trust, and a stronger bond with our pup. Our dog, Remi, responded so well to Nick’s approach. He explained everything clearly, gave us easy steps to follow at home, and made the session fun and positive. We walked away from each training not only seeing progress in our dog, but also feeling more empowered as owners. If you’re looking for a trainer who truly cares and gets results, Nick is the one to call. Highly recommend!

Nick is an amazing trainer and has helped me set up Puck, my pup, for success in so many ways. He has helped with potty training, crate training, reactivity towards other dogs, and leash pulling. If you want to be one step closer to having your dream pup Nick is definitely your guy!

He taught me various things I was not available to get online. He discussed several questions on behaviors, problem dogs and enlightened me on techniques to help me and my dog's relationships. He is extremely knowable on dog behavior and breeds. I know, I got significant knowledge, information and help from him. I highly recommend him and see him as an excellent trainer. I really appreciated his time and help. I would use him again if needed.
