FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Private Lessons: My rate is $100 per hour. This includes customized one-on-one training sessions and a follow-up summary of what we covered. Board & Train Programs: These programs are $1,000 per week and provide a comprehensive, immersive training experience for your dog. No Hidden Fees: The price you see is the price you pay. There are no additional fees for consultations, evaluations, or training materials. I also offer special discounts for multi-week packages and returning clients.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My process is designed to ensure a great fit and a clear plan for you and your dog. It’s a simple three-step journey: Free Phone Consultation: We’ll discuss your goals, your dog’s specific needs, and how I can help. In-person Evaluation: We'll schedule a free evaluation to meet your dog and discuss the best training path, whether it’s private lessons or a board & train program. Intake & Onboarding: Once we have a plan, we'll complete some quick intake documents so I have all the key information to get started.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've dedicated myself to continuous learning in dog behavior and training, so I can provide the best possible care for your pet. My experience includes: Multiple years of hands-on experience working with a wide range of breeds and behavioral issues. Ongoing professional development through seminars, workshops, and staying current with the latest techniques in positive reinforcement and balanced training. Mentorship under several highly respected trainers, which has provided me with deep insights into canine psychology and effective training methods.
