"Thank you to Luke! From the consultation, to the board and train, and then the 2 follow up sessions, he's fantastic at actually helping you bond with your dog and teaching your dog to respect you.
I'll definitely continue using Luke. Highly recommend him!"
—Christa Douglas

Board & Train Pricing & Services
Real Life. Real Results. Right Here.
Sometimes life is busy, and sometimes your dog needs more than a once-a-week lesson to get where they need to be. That's where Board & Train comes in.
Your dog stays with me — living in a real home environment, not a kennel — and works through a structured training program every single day. Whether you've got a pup who's pulling you down the street, a reactive dog who loses their mind at the sight of another dog, or a high-drive working breed that needs a serious outlet and clear boundaries, I've seen it and can help.
I use balanced training methods that teach the 'yes' and the 'no' in a way your dog understands. Because I believe every dog deserves tools and techniques matched to their needs, I work with each dog as an individual — there's never a one-size-fits-all approach. My goal isn't just a trained dog — it's a dog you can actually live with, enjoy, and be proud of.
Every Board & Train includes:
- Multiple daily structured training sessions
- Real-world exposure and socialization
- Detailed progress updates so you know exactly what's happening
- A hands-on transfer session so you leave confident too
Your dog comes home a different dog. You leave knowing exactly how to keep it that way. All packages are customized to you and your needs, but the following are typical programs and pricing.

"I recommend this trainer, one because he has patience!! Having a Siberian Husky requires a lot of patience and consistency, due to them having a mind of their own. He repeatedly has shown me many things I've needed help with. Thanks to him, my pup even passed his CGC."
—Nancy Velasquez

Weekly Private Lessons
You and Your Dog. One-on-One. No Distractions.
Private lessons are built for pet parents who want to be part of the process from day one — learning right alongside their dog, on your schedule, at your pace.
Whether you're starting fresh with a new puppy, working through leash reactivity, building obedience fundamentals, or taking the first steps toward a service dog certification, private sessions give us the time and focus to address exactly what your dog needs.
No cookie-cutter programs here. I meet you where you are, then build a plan that makes sense, and work through it together.
Private lessons are a great fit for:
- Puppies getting started on the right foot
- Family dogs needing manners and basic obedience
- Reactive or anxious dogs requiring a custom, careful approach
- High-drive breeds that need clear structure and engagement
- Handlers pursuing service dog training
I'll work with you on technique, timing, and consistency — because the training that happens between sessions matters just as much as the sessions themselves.
