About Your Trainer
Hi! I’m Holly, a dog trainer who specializes in helping reactive dogs and their owners feel safer and helping everyday dogs learn how to be good citizens without losing their personality. I also work with dog owners with disabilities to help them train their dogs; having limitations myself gives me a unique perspective into the challenges of training a pet dog without getting frustrated or feeling pressured. My approach is calm, kind, patient, understanding, and rooted in positive reinforcement, because I know that progress only happens when dogs and their owners feel understood, not pressured.
My goal is simple: To help you and your dog communicate better, stress less, and enjoy each other more. Training doesn’t have to feel intimidating. It can be clear, doable, and even fun.
If you’re ready for a trainer who gets the messy, emotional, frustrating, astounding, empowering, life-changing reality of living with a dog, you’re at the right place.
