About Dacia

My Story
I’ve had a lifelong connection with dogs, with experience working across a wide range of behaviors, environments, and individual needs.
That background shapes the way I approach training today — with a focus on understanding what’s influencing behavior and creating a clear, individualized plan for each dog.
No two dogs are the same, and training shouldn’t be either.

Dacia is a wonderful trainer. She's calm and cool with the dogs, and provides clear instructions for beginners, with repeatable exercises we can work on independently. We've worked with her both in person and remotely, and she's been very helpful every time we've worked with her.

Dacia was awesome with our dog! She was patient and very reassuring, which was so nice considering how shy our girl usually is. I love that she offers trial nights before boarding to make sure everyone gets along and is a good fit! Dacia kept us updated and even sent us plenty of pictures to reassure us she was settling in. I know our dog is in good hands with her and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to receive pet sitting or boarding services!
