The Reality
You're doing everything right.
So why isn't it working?
The endless cycle
You've watched every YouTube video, read every article, tried every tip—but nothing sticks. Generic advice doesn't account for your unique dog, your life, your specific challenges.
The emotional toll
The stress of every walk. The embarrassment when your dog reacts. The heartbreak of seeing them struggle. The guilt that maybe you're failing them.
The isolation
When something goes wrong at 4pm on a Tuesday, who do you ask? When you need reassurance or a quick video assessment, traditional behaviourists leave you waiting days or weeks for answers.
“I only wish we'd reached out sooner.”

MSc
“When you love something, you spend your whole life learning about it.”
As a qualified Applied Animal Behaviorist and Canine Specialist, I've dedicated my career to understanding the science behind dog behavior—and translating that science into practical, compassionate solutions for guardians like you.
My approach is rooted in positive reinforcement methodology, which means we work with your dog's natural instincts rather than against them. Every dog is an individual, and every guardian-dog relationship deserves personalized attention.

Still need reassurance? Let's talk about it.
“I've already tried training and it didn't work”
This isn't traditional training. As a qualified behaviorist, I address the root cause of behavior—not just the symptoms. We work with your dog's emotional state, not against it.
“Can virtual coaching really help my dog?”
Absolutely. Remote coaching has transformed thousands of dogs worldwide. Plus, you're learning in your actual environment—where the behaviors happen. And with text access, you get real-time guidance when it matters most.
What if my dog's issues are too severe?”
I specialize in complex cases: reactivity, anxiety, fear-based behaviors. The comprehensive assessment ensures we create a plan specifically for your dog's unique needs. If I'm not the right fit, I'll tell you honestly.
“$195/month feels like a big investment”
Consider: a single in-person behavior session costs $300+, with no between-session support. Here you get ongoing access, monthly calls, full resources, AND course discounts. Most importantly—you get results.
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before getting started.
How quickly can I expect to see results?
Every dog is different, but many clients report noticeable improvements within the first few weeks. Behavior change takes time and consistency—this isn't about quick fixes, it's about lasting transformation. The key is that you'll have ongoing support throughout the entire journey.
What are the 'business hours' for text support?
Text support is available during East Coast business hours, typically 9am-5pm EST/EDT, Monday through Friday. I aim to respond to all messages within the same business day. For urgent situations outside these hours, we can discuss strategies during our monthly calls.
Do I need to be tech-savvy for remote coaching?
Not at all! If you can send a text message and join a video call, you have all the skills you need. I'll guide you through recording short videos of your dog if needed for assessment, but there's no complicated technology involved.
What if I need to cancel or pause my membership?
Life happens! You can cancel anytime with no penalties or awkward conversations.
Is this only for reactive or anxious dogs?
While I specialize in complex behavioral cases, Elite Coaching is for any guardian who wants deep, personalized support. Whether you're dealing with reactivity, anxiety, fear issues, or simply want to optimize your relationship with your dog—this program can help.
What's included in the Guardian Toolkit?
The toolkit includes evidence-based protocols for various behavioral challenges, management strategies, enrichment ideas, training guides, and educational resources. It's continually updated with new materials. Think of it as your comprehensive behavioral support library.
How is this different from your group programs?
Yes! I work with guardians and dogs worldwide. Remote coaching removes geographical barriers entirely. As long as we can communicate via text and video call, location doesn't matter.
Can you work with dogs outside the US?
Framer is a design tool that allows you to design websites on a freeform canvas, and then publish them as websites with a single click.
Take the Next Step
Your dog is waiting for you
to understand them.
The relationship you've been dreaming of is possible. It starts with the decision to invest in real support.
