About Laura

Hi! I'm Laura, a local professional dog trainer and business owner. I help dogs and their humans build calm, confident relationships through positive reinforcement training. I believe dogs learn best through trust and clear communication. Every dog is unique, so I tailor my approach to your dog's temperament and needs. My work is rooted in encouragement, structure, and reward- and play-based methods - and I do not use prong, chain, or e-collars. I offer private training (puppy through advanced skills), neighborhood walks, and outdoor adventure hikes so dogs can thrive with both guidance and enrichment. I bring a calm, empathetic, and organized energy to every session. I currently have a couple of weekday openings and would love to work with you and your dog! Please note: Displayed rates are estimates within Care's format. Services are structured and priced based on type and duration. I'm happy to provide exact pricing upon request.

Laura was the perfect fit to help us with some bathroom issues we’d been having with our seven year old jack russell mix. Her analysis was spot on and her advice and training have had such a positive impact on all of our lives. She spent the time to get to know our dog and understand him which shows in the effectiveness of her training. I can’t recommend her enough.
