Coastal Canine Coach was founded in 2025 as the West Coasts first fear free, force free dog walking and training services.

After working in and around rescue for 10 years and working with a wide range of dogs with various behavioral issues, dogs lacking confidence and owners also feeling stuck with no where to go and no way to get the help they needed I had the realization the West Coast was really lacking one on one, fear free, force free dog walking and training services, especially for less social dogs. This is when I set out to make my dream of working with dogs a reality. I am a APDTNZ and IAABC member, knowledgeable, confident and dedicated to making a real difference with my controlled socialization, fear free training and enjoyable walks for a wide range of pooches. I am constantly upskilling through courses, discussions with other fear and force free trainers and advocating for putting in the extra work and avoiding aversive training methods. My dedication to being the best I can be for you and your dog is the reason I am continuously upskilling with the latest canine science and behavior courses, striving to give you and your dog a easier life together.
