Hi, I'm Emilie! I have over 15 years experience training dogs in a variety of settings. I graduated from Starmark Academy in 2005 and I'm certified through the Association of Pet Dog Trainers. I have worked with some of the top training professionals in the industry and in doing so, learned the most positve, effective techniques to get results.
I find deep joy in helping pet owners form a closer bond with their dog through positive reinforcement training and behavior modification. I'm especially drawn to dogs that struggle with fear and anxiety, because I have a worried dog of my own!
The journey I walk with my clients and their dogs, as well as the progress and victories that are seen along the way, is why I do what I do. I'm also there to encourage clients when there's a training setback or when they're feeling discouraged with their dog. When owners are able to enjoy their pet as a close family member with joy instead of frustration, I know that I've succeeded at what God has placed me here to do. My own dogs have always brought me great joy, and my goal is to help others experience it with their dog, as well!
In my free time I enjoy traveling, hiking, and camping with my constant canine companion, Moose. I am active in my church and love spending time with my new husband and family!
