Services & Pricing

INITIAL CONSULTATION

$215

In order to assess the underlying cause of your dog's behaviors, you will fill out a behavior questionnaire, and our first session will involve discussing those answers. We will talk about your dog and the behaviors you would like to work on.

This will take around 90 minutes and will allow me to customize a training plan for you and your dog.

PRIVATE TRAINING SESSION

$165

We will do hands-on training, during which time I will teach you how to understand your dog's needs and communicate with them. We will cover training tools to help them feel calm and safe, and teach them behaviors that are more appropriate when they are feeling overwhelmed.

PACKAGES AVAILABLE

For existing clients. Three, five, and ten-session packages are a great way to commit to a longer-term training plan for your dog, all while saving money.

We will work together to create a roadmap for your goals. Training packages can include a combination of in-home and virtual sessions.

BETH MARTIN

MEET THE TRAINER

I am a positive reinforcement trainer who believes that every dog deserves a compassionate ear and respect. I train at the dog's pace. I teach all my clients about dog body language so that they can develop a deeper understanding of their dog. I have a number of certifications, including the CPDT-KA, CBCC-KA, VSA, and CSAP-BC.
I am always working to increase my knowledge and skills so that I can better serve my clients and their dogs.

I have always had an affinity for animals and knew that I wanted to dedicate my life to them in some way. In the past I have had jobs in wildlife research, wildlife rehabilitation, veterinary assistance, and animal welfare advocacy (I REALLY love animals!). Around a decade ago I was applying to graduate school for Ethology (animal behavior). I started walking dogs while studying for the GRE, which took me down a path that led me to becoming a dog trainer.
