Emily Herr, Certified Professional Dog Trainer
About Me
I am a Certified Professional Dog Trainer accredited through the Animal Behavior College and a Certified Canine Good Citizen Evaluator of the AKC. With more than 16 years of experience in animal welfare, I have dedicated my career to helping animals, especially those that need a bit more TLC. Whether it's dogs or cats, each animal has its own unique personality and challenges, and I tailor my approach to meet their specific needs. My passion has always been for the "underdogs," those animals who require a bit more patience and care to thrive.
My Experience
Over the past decade and more, I have honed my skills in both canine and feline behavior. From understanding the subtle cues of a nervous dog to identifying the needs of a high-energy pup, my extensive experience allows me to offer comprehensive training and behavioral support. Whether you are considering getting a new pet, have just welcomed one into your home, or are dealing with behavioral challenges in your current furry family member, I am here to provide the guidance and support you need.
How I Can Help
I believe that every pet-guardian relationship can be a happy and fulfilling one with the right guidance and support. My goal is to work with you and your pet to create a harmonious and joyful home environment. Whether it's through one-on-one training sessions, behavioral consultations, or ongoing support, we will work together to address any challenges and achieve lasting results.

Happy as a Clam
I’ve worked with my dogs in the past, but none have been quite like my little yorkie mix, Moose. Emily has done an amazing job retraining me so I can effectively work with him! He came to us needing help with potty training, recall, walking on the leash and general manners. Emily has helped us to find solutions and a plan of action for every problem we’ve presented using gentle, reward based training. This has been key for results with his personality! She’s professional, patient, kind, compassionate and determined. I can’t recommend her enough!
Emily Hewitt
Highly recommend Emily. The level of direction she has given me with both my dogs’ behavioral challenges has been profound. She is incredibly dedicated, kind, and honest.

“For more than a decade, Emily has been there for our pets when they needed her. From massaging sore old muscles, to helping with intractable training problems, Emily is a star, a real pet whisperer who communicates with our guys on a level I can’t hear. They love her and so do we. People with her skills are rare birds. If she’s available, snap her up.’
