ABOUT

Canine Academy logo with a pink paw print inside a stylized letter N.

“I was 8 years old when I discovered my passion for dog training. By the time I was 17 years old, I had turned my passion into a source of income, helping dog parents in multiple states improve their dogs' lifestyles. By the time I was 19 years old, I earned my credentials as a Professional Dog Trainer and founded ND Canine Academy. Having successfully trained my own service animal in the past; I used the knowledge I gained to help others train their own, as well as spreading awareness about service animals and ADA rights. I aim to contribute to building a future where service animal etiquette is an integral part of everyday societal knowledge, ensuring inclusivity, spreading awareness, and working towards creating a safer society for service animal handlers. Throughout the years, I have gained experience that has helped shape not only my training methods and approach but also the way I provide for and support my clients. I aim to provide the utmost luxury care for dedicated dog parents by not just training, but by the attention to detail and time I dedicate to each of my clients. Every gift that is handcrafted, training guide designed, and dog transformed speaks for ND Canine Academy’s passion.”
