Support your dog trainer by sharing your story

Hi! I'm Lizzy, a multi-certified, insured positive-reinforcement dog trainer and behavior consultant. My dogs Tuck, Finch, and Idgie and I live in a cottage near the woods in Worcester, MA.

Whether you're in Worcester, Massachusetts, or Walla Walla, Washington, I'm here for you! I graduated with honors from Jean Donaldson's esteemed Academy for Dog Trainers, where I studied dog behavior and training and learning theory. My dog training spans basics like teaching "sit" to advanced aggression cases. I see clients in private one-on-one sessions, online via Zoom, and in classes.

More recently, I earned the Fear Free and Separation Anxiety Professional Trainer certifications (SA PRO).

My Approach

I vow to use efficient, force-free, Fear Free methods in our work together. I will respect your time and financial investment. It would be unethical for me to make promises about outcomes regarding animal behavior, but I am all about honoring your goals!

I'll bring compassion, patience, knowledge, and kindness to every session--maybe a few laughs, too! Also, bags of chicken, cheese, or turkey.
