About

I've done group classes and private sessions with puppies, adult and senior dogs. At this time, I focus on training puppies (8 weeks to around 6 months old) through private in-home lessons. I am there for those who have never owned a dog before and just got their first puppy or those who haven't raised a puppy in years. I help with every facet of having a puppy from the potty training to the nipping to visiting the vet and having guests come over to teaching a puppy how to correctly start walking on the leash, manners in the home and correctly developing relationships between puppies and children and resident dogs. Also, absolutely everything in between! I operate with compassion and science and get results. Providing support, reassurance and guidance to the puppy parent through the most challenging yet most important time of a dogs life: puppyhood.

I have been working with Cami for a few weeks now, and our experience thus far has been fantastic. I have a very young Border Collie puppy who hasn't finished her vaccinations yet and work full time. This creates a difficult situation, as a young puppy needs exercise but without full completed vaccinations is not a candidate for doggy day care. Cami has set up a schedule with me to either come to my home twice a day to spend time with the puppy or I take my puppy to Cami's home for petsitting. We have also been doing a class once a week learning all the basics, from good housebreaking techniques, sit, down, leave it, release, and leash walking. I could not be happier. Cami has turned out to be just the kind of situation I was looking for, allowing my puppy to be exercised and socialized with well-mannered healthy dogs by a certified trainer who knows what she is doing and really cares about my little girl!

Camila has been an amazing dog trainer! Our dog has learned so much already and it's all thanks to Camila! Barley always looks forward to his weekly training sessions. We love that during our 5 week training sessions we can reach out to Camila with any questions or concerns and she is there to assist.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My knowledge of the dog training field will continually be expanding. Being a Certified Professional Dog Trainer through the CCPDT requires CEUs for recertification.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I adopted two puppies at the same time, made plenty of mistakes, fell in love with dog training and wanted to help others not go through it blind like I did. My dogs taught me a lot about myself and dogs can really make a difference in peoples lives. I want other people to enjoy their dogs also. I do that through science based, compassionate dog training to help people raise their puppy right.
