Positive dog training for trust and teamwork.

I’m Holly (she/they), a positive reinforcement dog trainer based in Richmond, Virginia. I offer in-person training in the Richmond area and online training anywhere in the world.

My approach uses force-free methods and games to help you and your dog grow together. While we learn everyday skills like sit and stay, we'll also explore how your dog communicates and what helps them feel safe and confident.

As a new trainer, I need practice and feedback on the quality of my services. For the rest of the summer, all training is free of charge in exchange for your honest feedback. Feedback is private (no fishing for reviews!) and will be used to improve my offerings.

Services

New Dog Support • House Manners • Life Skills

Personalized training for pet guardians who want a compassionate, relationship-centered approach. I offer one-on-one dog training, either in person in Richmond, Virginia or online anywhere in the world.

While I can help you with a variety of different training goals, I specialize in house manners and life skills for adult and adolescent dogs — especially those who are settling into a new home. Alongside learning to sit and stay, we'll also build resilience, confidence, and communication skills that will strengthen your bond for life. I can also help you with cooperative care, button training, common behavior concerns, and enrichment.
