Source of Inspiration

Rachel was inspired to become a dog trainer because of her desire to improve the quality of life for people in need, particularly through service dog training. She saw how dogs could be a life-changing source of companionship and support, and she wanted to play a part in that transformation. The idea of helping individuals build a strong bond with their service dog and experience greater independence motivates her work.

Professional Experience

Rachel holds a Master’s degree in Applied Behavior Analysis from the University of South Florida, which has been a key asset in her career as a dog trainer. For the past 6 years, she has specialized in training service dogs for military veterans, working closely with shelter dogs to help them become reliable companions. Rachel also offers private 1:1 lessons for individual clients, focusing on both basic and advanced obedience, including off-leash work. Her background in behavior analysis gives her a unique edge in understanding and shaping canine behavior effectively.

Unleashing Expertise

Rachel has a strong interest and extensive experience in service dog training and off-leash obedience. Her favorite skill to teach is off-leash recall, as it allows dogs and their families to enjoy greater freedom while maintaining a strong bond and reliable communication. She finds joy in seeing dogs achieve their potential and families gaining more confidence and happiness with their pets.
