Certified Separation anxiety Specialist
Helping Dogs Feel Safe When You’re Away
Tailor-made online coaching to help your dog feel secure alone, so you can reclaim your time and peace of mind.
Living with a dog who panics when left alone is exhausting emotionally and physically.
You love your dog, but you’re also tired, stressed, and running out of ideas.
You’re not alone, and there is a path forward.
Separation anxiety isn’t disobedience, it’s extreme fear or panic of being left alone.
Signs of Separation Anxiety
Vocalization
Self-harm behaviors
Soiling
Destruction
What does the training process look like?

Gradual Exposure:
We help your dog get used to being alone in small, manageable steps that don’t scare them. Over time, we slowly increase the duration so they can feel safe and confident when alone.
Safe Boundaries:
A big part of progress is avoiding situations where your dog feels pushed too far. When we prevent meltdowns, lunges, or barking spirals, we protect their nervous system and set them up for success. This means thoughtful management, smart routines, and giving your dog the space they need to learn.
Consistent Support & Tailored Guidance
Patience and consistency are essential. Training takes time, but we’ll guide you through every step, so your dog can succeed without feeling overwhelmed.

F.A.Q
How long does it take to see progress?
Every dog is different! Some show improvements within a few weeks, while others need months of gradual training. Consistency and patience are key. My goal is to set a pace that works for your dog so that progress is long-lasting.
Can I leave my dog alone during training?
Not yet! In the beginning, we work with controlled absences to prevent setbacks. I’ll help you plan alternative solutions (like pet sitters, daycares, or adjusted schedules) while your dog is still learning.
Will I need to be home all the time for training?
At first, yes. You’ll need to commit to avoiding stressful alone time for your dog while we work through the process. But I’ll help you make it work within your routine.
Do I need to live near you to join your program?
Nope! All training is done remotely through video calls and online coaching. This allows me to assess your dog in their natural environment without the added stress of an in-person visit.
What can we work on in the Brave Dog Program?
Anything your anxious or big-feelings dog needs help with. We can focus on reactivity, fear, noise sensitivity, loose leash walking, confidence building, impulse control, or everyday challenges that feel overwhelming. The program is fully tailored to your dog and your goals.
I’ve tried training before, and it didn’t work. Why would this be different?
Many training programs move too fast or use outdated methods that don’t consider your dog’s emotional state. My approach is fully customized to your dog’s needs, focusing on gradual progress, stress reduction, and clear communication to set them up for success.
But training is too expensive…
I get it. Investing in training can feel like a lot. But this isn’t just any training — it includes my years of experience, specialized knowledge, and a plan tailored specifically for your dog.
Think about it: a happier, calmer dog means fewer sitters, less daycare, and less stress for both of you. You’re not just paying for sessions — you’re investing in your dog’s wellbeing and a life that’s easier and more joyful together.
Why do you only offer packages?
Good training takes time. Lasting results don’t happen in one session or a quick fix — especially with anxious, reactive, or sensitive dogs. Packages allow us to work step by step, at your dog’s pace, with consistent guidance and support. That way, progress is real, sustainable, and your dog isn’t pushed or overwhelmed.
When does my training package start?
Your training package officially starts when you receive your first personalized training plan. Even though we already know your dog from the initial assessment, the plan marks the moment we begin putting strategies into action.
From that day, all video reviews, support, and guidance are included as part of your package. This way, you can start at your own pace with clear steps and see real progress from day one.
