ONe-on-One Coaching
Be involved in the learning and training process right along with your dog!
What makes us different is that we don’t use treats or excessive force teach your dog how to listen. We teach through relationship building and clear communication.
In your sessions you will receive coaching from your certified dog trainer to address behavioral issues and train new skills. Your trainer will provide practices for you to implement throughout the week, and provides a support group for you to ask questions in between sessions to ensure you are confident in your practices.
Meet weekly, either in your home or a designated location (park, pet store, home depot, etc.) to work on your dog’s training goals in real world scenarios.

Boarding school Program
The classic Board & Train program provides an immersive experience where your dog gets to live with a certified professional trainer, and their personal pack, as they learn a new way of being. Let your trainer put in the time and effort to influence your dog’s behavior and boost their skillset during this time.
A board and train program is not a “quick fix” but rather a “behavioral boost”. You will still need to learn how to maintain the results and continue working with your dog to progress them further once they return home. This is why we encourage a weekly visit during their stay so you can still be a part of the learning process alongside your dog.
Since we are offering this service in our personal home space, we only take up to 2 dogs at a time to ensure that they receive our full focus and attention during their program.
You will receive regular updates during their stay via video and photos.

Behavior Modification
For dogs who struggle with the following behaviors:
Timidness / Fearfulness:
Navigating normal life situations like neighborhood walks, going into public spaces, having guests over etc.
Reactivity: lunging and barking at other dogs or people
Hyperactivity: can’t sit still, settle down or listen!
Fulfilment activities including Environmental Agility
*The Behavior Modification program may include some obedience training commands.
Boarding School Requirements:
Crate Trained: Your dog must be comfortable sleeping in a crate overnight. If your dog is not yet crate trained, we can teach you how to crate train to prepare your dog for their board and train program.
Health: Your dog must be up to date on vaccine (rabies and distemper) and have a clean fecal test within 2 weeks of arriving for their program – this is to prevent the spread of parvo and parasites.
*we do not accept extreme cases of separation anxiety/ confinement phobia where your dog may injure themselves if left alone.
Group classes
Join our group classes, where your certified trainer will lead a 45 minute session focused on education and activities to fulfill your dog and enhance your training and relationship. This allows you to work with your dog in a setting that offers some distractions to work around. Come learn with your dog and make some new friends in class!

Virtual Dog Training Programs
Have you ever heard the saying: “It’s more about training the human than the dog”? Well, nothing could be truer than that! Virtual dog training focuses on the human end of the leash, diving deep into understanding canine psychology and how that applies to YOUR dog, while creating custom solutions for your dog’s behavior struggles.
Take advantage of the opportunity to learn from Kinsey’s
years of experience and education from the comfort of your own home!
- Kinsey provides virtual dog training services for all 50 states and Canada.
- Virtual sessions are provided on the Zoom Meeting format or FaceTime.
- You will be required to have consistent WiFi connection and a quiet, uninterrupted environment for your sessions.
- To best assist you, Kinsey may also request videos of your dog’s behavior so she can assess the dynamics and provide accurate guidance.
Where to Start:
