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 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





The Confidence Builder puppy social was excellent. The trainers (Natalie and Claire) were great. We will definitely be back!

Anne-Sophie Brumelot





Natalie was a great guide for our puppy social! She offered clear direction, encouragement, reassurance and helpful explanations about puppy behavior. We’re so happy we joined in, Cosmo had a blast and we felt at ease that he could learn to play safely.
