Animal Experience

Before becoming a dog trainer, I was dog a handler at two doggy daycares for three years. This has given me a solid understanding of dog behavior and socialization. I was also a neighborhood dog walker. My passion for dogs led me to become a full-time trainer.

Why I Became a Dog Trainer

I have always had an interest in the way dogs think and behave. I believe that it is important to have an understanding between dog and owner to create harmony in the home. I also strongly believe in positive reinforcement training tactics, and strive to teach others how to apply them.

Testimonials


Natalie was great in the Puppy Social! Very communicative and informational. She made sure all the pups were respected and had a great time. I learned a lot as well.
Thank you!

- Joe Hammond





Natalie did an excellent job of narrating the behaviors she saw during the puppy social and I learned a lot! It was amazing exposure for Ringo. I cant wait for the next one!

- Chloe Weiss





Mango loves Natalie (the treat lady) so much! She has responded really well and has made going out on walks much more enjoyable and lower stress. We know what to look for and what to do when she sees other dogs and she's overall easier to walk. We look forward to working with her in the future.
