Initial 2-Hour Training & Assessment

Every new client begins here.

This 2-hour session allows us to understand your dog’s behavior, identify challenges, and start training right away. We’ll troubleshoot problem areas, introduce foundational commands, and see what motivates your dog to learn best.

At the end of the session, you’ll receive my training eBook along with tailored instructions specific to your dog’s needs, so you can continue reinforcing progress at home.

Investment:

  • $400 for one dog
  • $450 for two dogs

This session is included as the first lesson in all training packages.


After the initial assessment, we’ll continue refining skills and strengthening good behavior through one-hour private sessions. Each lesson includes hands-on coaching, troubleshooting, and clear next-step guidance for continued success. Sessions can be in whatever location training is relevant.

Hourly Rate:

  • $175 per lesson

I Brings Dogs Home! TM
Board & Train Program (Dog Lives in My Home) 

A Transformational Stay For dogs who need a deeper reset, consistent structure, or a jump-start in training, this immersive program combines daily hands-on learning with real-world practice — all in a safe, home-based environment. 

Nestled in the heart of Wine Country, dogs enjoy acres of open space, mental stimulation, and adventure during their stay. Sabrina also spends time in the Bay Area, continuing training in a real home environment with beach walks, city outings, group hikes, and park sessions to build calm confidence in any setting. 

A minimum three-week stay allows your dog to settle into a new rhythm, build lasting habits, and develop reliable obedience skills. When your dog returns home, Sabrina provides hands-on guidance to help you maintain and build on that success.

 Program Overview 3-Week Minimum — $4,250 

Additional Days: $250/day (pro-rated) Dogs with aggression or severe anxiety cases typically require 3–4 weeks, depending on progress and individual needs. 

Includes: 

• 1 × 2-hour handover lesson at drop-off 

•  3 × 1-hour in-home follow-up lessons after the program 

• Real-world training outings (beach, parks, public spaces) 

• Customized routines for obedience, manners, and behavior goals

 The Result : Dogs leave with structure, confidence, and new skills and owners gain the tools and support to sustain that progress long after the program ends.

Dog Rest

Boarding

Your dog enjoys a safe, structured stay in one of our comfortable homes — not a kennel. Each guest has their own cozy crate for rest and security, helping maintain calm routines and good habits.

Throughout the day, your pup gets plenty of exercise, enrichment, and social time. Activities may include group hikes, play sessions, or relaxed downtime tailored to your dog’s needs and energy level.

As a special touch, we provide raw marrow bones sourced from local, sustainable butcher, along with eco-friendly, non-toxic chew toys to keep your dog happy, healthy, and engaged during their stay.

It’s personalized care in a home environment — where dogs feel balanced, enriched, and loved.

Hikes

Sabrina’s select training dogs enjoy weekly hikes to keep them active, engaged, and mentally stimulated. These hikes take place on public trails across various locations and last a minimum of two hours, with off-leash time whenever possibleto encourage natural exploration and socialization.

Dogs are either guided by Sabrina herself or by a trusted local independent contractor, ensuring a safe, structured, and enjoyable experience for every participant.

Have a Classroom?

Sabrina brings dogs into the mix to help young people build trust, patience, and confidence — skills that reach way beyond the leash.

Since 2009, she’s been working with youth in East Palo Alto, Redwood City, Fort Bragg, and Pacificas — teaching K9 care, teamwork, and leadership in a way that feels real. Her programs give kids a chance to connect, open up, and discover what they’re capable of through the power of working with dogs.
