About me

My name is Devin. I am a certified dog trainer and vet assistant. I've worked with animals for the last 10 years in vet clinics and as a dog trainer. My love of animals started young, watching Animal Planet, especially It's Me or The Dog, and interacting with my first dog, a beagle named Ginger. When Ginger passed, I got my second dog, Buddy.  Buddy was 6 months old when we brought him home. A 6-month-old puppy is a lot of work, and I was determined to research all the best care for my new best friend. That is when my passion really ignited. I grew to love that research, and it continued past Buddy's puppy phase. Buddy is now 16 years old, and we continue to learn together every day. I am passionate about helping dog guardians improve their relationships with their four-legged friends. I hope to share that passion with you!

Why virtual dog training?

What are your certifications?

What is your cost break down?

Virtual dog training is the new gold standard when it comes to most behavior modification. The environment shapes the behavior. So when I am in your living room, your dog will act differently than when I am not. With virtual calls, I get to see a true glimpse of your dog's behavior. Virtual calls focus on guardian and dog interaction versus trainer and dog interactions.

Dog Training for you! 

Holistic Approach

Every dog and household is unique. When we train, I will look at every aspect of you and your dogs life to set realistic and obtainable goals. 

Positive Reinforcement

I will never recommend the use of pain or punishment-based tools. 

Affordability

Training should not break the bank. I strive to keep my costs accessible to any dog guardian. 

Words From Clients

"We love Devin! We have had training with her for the last 1.5 years to work on various behaviors for my rescue pup and she’s been so patient with me while I’m learning and him. Definitely recommend her!"

Sabine and Oreo

"Devin at Pup Science has done incredible work with our anxious pup, Lollie! Devin’s style of positive reinforcement has allowed us to build a healthy and trusting relationship with Lollie while working on a number of techniques to keep her safe and happy. Virtual training allows Devin to see Lollie in her natural environment to maximize effectiveness in real situations. I highly recommend working with Devin!"

Carolyn and Lollie

"Words cannot describe how grateful we are for Devin!! We adopted our pup, Kanan, from the shelter when he was a year old and quickly realized he was reactive to other dogs. Through our sessions, she has equipped me and my husband with skills that allow us to stay calm when our pup reacts, which ensures we can give him what he needs! She has a large arsenal of different cues and games. Reactivity training is slow work, but Devin has been so patient and celebrates every little win with us. As a first time dog owner, I don’t know what I would do without her. I would highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking to hone some training skills with their pup!!"
