About
I’m a certified professional dog trainer with a passion for helping dogs and their people thrive together. I take time to understand each dog and each household, creating a customized training plan that fits your lifestyle. My approach is positive and science-based, making the process clear, supportive, and effective. With a background in recruiting, I bring strong people skills to every session — I know how to identify strengths, fill in gaps, and set both humans and dogs up for success. I love working with families of all sizes, from those with young children to retired and senior dog owners who appreciate flexible daytime sessions and steady results. Training isn’t just about the dog — it’s about building a lasting, confident relationship between you and your companion. For answers to frequently asked questions, please refer to my *******. Happy to help!

Brenda is AMAZING! My dog had knee surgery 4 months before we started training with Brenda. She was very willing to adjust training time and methods to better suit my dog during the healing process. I would absolutely recommend Brenda! My dog had zero leash experience because we lived in the country until she was 4 years old. My dog was very naughty on the leash and would almost pull my over. After only THREE sessions with Brenda, my dog looks like a pro on the leash. Brenda taught my dog, but more importantly she taught ME how to continue training on a daily basis. THANK YOU BRENDA! A+++

Our experience with Brenda was so positive! Not only did we make a lot of progress with our dog during our weekly one-hour slots with her, she also equipped us with all of the tools and training techniques we need to continue being successful on our own. Brenda was so responsive to our family and dog's needs. I really appreciate her professionalism, flexibility and responsiveness. She's very good at what she does!

Brenda did an outstanding job of taking care of my two dogs while I was away. She updated me everyday on the activities, and really cared about how the dogs were getting along. I would recommend her to anyone who wants great dog care or training.

Brenda has been a life saver for us. After rescuing Chopper, we were pretty much "lost" on how to make him feel happy again. Brenda came to our lives with great insights, tools and advice. She is available 24/7 for any questions or concerns we might have - she listened to us and listened our dog. After three weeks of training and counseling, Chopper is a new dog, he is happy, self confident and not afraid anymore. Thank you Brenda for everything!

I would recommend Brenda for dog training. Her rates are very reasonable and she does the fair thing if time adjustments are needed. Brenda was patient and accommodating to our schedules. We'll be using her again as our puppy continues to grow and needs follow-up lessons or advanced lessons. Our puppy loves Brenda and gets very excited to see her when she comes for training. It was a win-win for us. Thanks Brenda!
