Welcome to Canine Command

Having trouble finding a reliable, knowledgeable and caring dog trainer or pet sitter? Is your dog ill mannered, or worse, out of your command and control i.e. jumping on you and your children, chewing up/soiling the house or aggressive towards other dogs/humans? Canine Command can help you solve your dog care and training problems!

We first evaluate your dog's temperament and then implement techniques to enhance owner/dog communication, bonding, respect and cooperation We are experienced dog trainers and pet sitters who are passionate about dog care and obedience training!

We offer affordable services at your home and at your convenience! We can work with your dog with a one-time visit, multiple visits or periodic visits based on your schedule and your particular training needs. We teach using the latest learning and behavioral science emphasizing positive reinforcement to shape positive behaviors and modify/extinguish negative behaviors.

Our work involves empowering the owner with knowledge and behavioral tools to strengthen and enhance the owner/dog bond. We firmly believe in and teach what we call the three L's of responsible ownership-leadership, lots of exercise and lots of love for your dog!

Canine Command can also prepare your dog to take and pass the AKC Canine Good Citizen test. This test is the first step in helping your furry friend become a service dog able to comfort ailing patients in nursing homes and hospitals as well as assist children with their learning disabilities. The test also has practical ramifications since it can help protect you from liability claims and also lower your homeowners insurance premiums!

We can also help you select the right pet based on temperament, lifestyle and activity level. And of course we provide companionship, feeding and exercise for your faithful friend when you're away from home on a one-time or periodic basis. We can also combine our pet sitting with training sessions to give you extra value for your dollar!
