Introduction
Let’s chat! 15 minute complementary phone call to answer a few questions about the training process. ——- I am a certified positive reinforcement trainer and behavior consultant through DTIA San Francisco. I offer consults to review your dogs behavior, provide a training and management plan. During the consult I will evaluate if the dog needs additional training with me or if the owner can do the training. The consult is 1.5 hours in length for $295. I work with the client to help them understand their dog’s behavior. Train the human to work with their dog to modify behaviors and help improve the dogs emotional state. If needed a I offer a complementary 15 minute phone call to answer a few initial questions the incoming client has about the training process. I offer remote training (Zoom, FaceTime, Skype) if you are outside of my business area.

After two long years of carrying our dog down the stairs, we had almost given up hope—until we found Naomi. From the very beginning, it was clear that she approaches training with an incredible level of creativity and dedication that sets her apart. As someone who works in a creative industry myself, I was truly impressed by how she treated our dog’s hesitation as a puzzle to solve, bringing fresh and innovative ideas to every session. Naomi’s resilience and commitment are unmatched. She didn’t just show up for a session and leave it at that—she continuously checked in, asked for updates, and thoroughly evaluated our training videos, providing thoughtful tips and encouragement along the way. On top of that, she went above and beyond by recording personalized tutorial videos for us, breaking down each step to ensure we felt confident and equipped to continue the training on our own. And then, the moment we had been waiting for finally happened—after years of struggling, our dog finally went down the stairs! Naomi celebrated this milestone with us like it was her own victory, and it truly felt like a team effort. If you’re looking for a trainer who is not only skilled but also deeply passionate, creative, and supportive in their approach, Naomi is the one. We can’t thank her enough for her patience, insight, and unwavering encouragement. We’re beyond grateful and highly recommend her.

We had the best experience with Naomi, she took the time to listen to what we were looking for and then gave us good, solid and actionable steps to get our puppy crate trained. She was also able to offer advice and support with other training we were working on. After our initial consultation, Naomi was responsive when we reached out to her and also took the time to regularly check in with us. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Naomi to anyone looking for advice/assistance with any dog training, she's simply the best!

My experience with Naomi has been absolutely wonderful. Kosette my small Pomeranian has been totally responsive to all of Naomi’s insight and approach in helping me train her. Naomi has been responsive and gone above and beyond the call of duty. Her warmth and knowledge of training is outstanding as well as her genuine approach to working with both myself and Kosette. I highly recommend her.

Naomi is a gem! Our doggie is challenging and Naomi immediately was able to focus on her issues. She takes a very gentle approach in earning our dog's trust. She is a joy to work with and she puts 150% into her attention to our dog's needs and ours. I highly recommend her to train your dog! You'll be very happy!!
