Training that Builds Understanding, Not just Obedience

My approach supports both ends of the leash. By focusing on communication, relationship-building, and practical skills, I help create change in your dog that lasts, not just for the length of a session.

Tailored to You & Your Dog

Obedience & Everyday Manners

Coaching built around your dog's specific challenges, including reactivity, impulse control, and the everyday skills that make life together easier.

Day Training

Trainer-led sessions that keep your dog's training consistent, even on busy weeks. I pick up your dog for training and socialization, with updates sent along the way.

Sports & Advanced Training

If you're building on sport skills or looking for the right outlet for your dog, from disc to nosework and beyond, this is where we get more advanced and have fun doing it!

Why Train With Me?

No one-size-fits-all method. I train the dog in front of me, using what actually works for the owner, too. With a diverse training toolbox, including positive reinforcement, play, structure, and fair consequences.
Real range, real experience. From high-drive sport dogs to working breeds, I've spent years building the skills, outlets, and structure these dogs actually need to thrive, not just get by.
I love a good puzzle. Creative problem-solving and troubleshooting tricky behaviors is my favorite part of the job, not a last resort.
Puppies through advanced work. Wherever you and your dog are in your journey, I'll meet you exactly where you are and help build from there.

From rescue dogs to stunt dogs, there's a lot that led me here. Get to know the person behind The Precious Pack.​

Real training, real results, real stories.

Common Questions

How much does training cost?

Lesson packages are the most economical choice! 1-on-1 sessions start at $100/hr, with bundle savings for ongoing progress. Virtual lessons as low as $35/30 mins. I accept credit cards and offer payment plans. During the consult, we'll go over training options and build a plan.

I focus first on the basics, structure, trust, a dog who's getting what they need, and that groundwork is what makes solving specific problems possible. Whatever you're dealing with, we'll find a practical solution that works for you and your dog.

I primarily serve Upland, Rancho Cucamonga, Claremont, Montclair, Ontario, and nearby areas in Southern California. Outside that range? Virtual coaching is also available, so distance doesn't have to be a barrier. Reach out for options!

All of them. From young puppies to adult dogs, and every breed and temperament in between. My training approach adjusts to the dog in front of me, not the other way around.

Private lessons are hands-on coaching for you and your dog together, real progress happens between sessions, so how consistently you practice makes a big difference. Day Training is a great add-on alongside lessons: I pick up your dog for training, socialization, and exposure to new environments, then send you updates so you're still in the loop.

No trainer can honestly promise specific results, every dog and situation is different. What I can tell you is that the dogs who progress fastest have owners who stay consistent with practice between sessions. I'll give you the tools; how far they go depends on how they're used in everyday life. Text and video support is always available between sessions, so you're never left with questions!
