Tailored Training That Respects Every Dog—and Every Human

In-Home Private Lesson

Each session lasts one hour, with an additional 15 minutes offered at no extra cost for questions, practice, or just extra support.

Sessions are designed to be hands-on and collaborative:

I begin by working directly with your dog to introduce and reinforce the desired behaviors.

Then, I guide you through the same techniques, ensuring you feel confident and capable.

Finally, I observe your practice with your dog, offering real-time feedback and adjustments.

At the end of each session, you’ll receive customized homework to reinforce progress between lessons.

No two dogs are the same. That’s why your dog’s training program is always customized to meet your dog’s unique personality, history, and home environment. Whether you’re looking for help with foundational obedience or need support addressing specific behavioral issues like anxiety or reactivity, I’ll create a training plan that fits your goals and your lifestyle.

As your dog and you demonstrate readiness and solid foundational skills, we will begin to focus on more advanced training:

  • Exposure to specific and controlled distractions (e.g., food, toys, movement)

  • Introduction of advanced obedience commands and increased difficulty

  • Gradually working through more stressful or stimulating situations

  • Sessions conducted in public settings. Improving your dog’s focus, confidence, and reliability outside the home including parks and dog-friendly retail locations, or even your place of work if you want to be able to bring your pup along.

  • Structured work around other dogs

Day Train With Sarah

Does your dog struggle walking calmly through busy parking lots, or feel overwhelmed by crowds, bikes, or skateboards? Maybe your dog just needs a little refresher on some basics.

Let’s take some of the pressure off your schedule while helping your dog build confidence and skills. With our Day Train program, your dog will be picked up directly from your home and spend five focused hours with Sarah, working on targeted training goals tailored to their needs.

At the end of the day, Sarah will fill you in on everything your dog worked on, the progress they made, and what you can keep practicing at home to keep things moving forward.

The Day Train program is designed to be a simple, stress-free way to give your dog some extra support—and give you a little break, too.
