Canine Concierge: More Training, Less on Your Plate
Help your puppy or adolescent dog thrive with hands-on training and dedicated concierge support.
Want a well-mannered dog but don't have the time (or interest) to do all the training yourself? Leave the heavy lifting to me and enjoy the progress your dog makes.
Foundational Skills
Sit, Down, Wait, Touch, Come When Called, Confidence Building, Comfort with Handling

Puppy and Adolescent Skills

No two dogs or families are alike. Training is tailored to your dog's needs and your family's goals.
Thoughtful guidance tailored to your dog, your home, and your goals. My training focuses on clear communication, practical skills, and helping dogs and their people succeed together in everyday life.
Families who choose Canine Concierge want their dogs to learn directly from a professional without taking on all the teaching and repetition themselves. They recognize the value of consistent training but would rather spend their limited time enjoying their dogs than laying every foundation.
And unlike board-and-train, their dogs stay home, where families can be part of those exciting first moments and celebrate each new accomplishment.
I frequently work with families throughout northern Bergen County, including Ho-Ho-Kus, Ridgewood, Tenafly, Ramsey, Demarest, Oradell, and Closter.
Professional Training. Personal Support.
Judgement Free Zone
I want you and your dog to succeed. Have questions? Ask away. When it comes to dogs, nothing is off-limits. And seriously, no apologies for how your house looks. I'm the dog trainer, not the in-law.
Custom Training Plans
Your dog's training plan is designed around their individual needs and your family's goals. We focus on the skills that matter to you, without spending time on things that don't.
Skills for Real Life
Training doesn't happen in a vacuum. While I take on much of the teaching and repetition, you're still an important part of your dog's success. We'll meet weekly to help you learn and practice the skills your dog is developing, with text support available between sessions.
HOW THE CANINE CONCIERGE WORKS
Canine Concierge combines professional, trainer-led lessons with hands-on coaching for you and your family. I take on much of the initial teaching and repetition, then help you learn how to maintain and build on your dog's developing skills.

Recommended by Our Veterinarian
“My vet suggested both my dogs be trained by Brooke! I understand why. Brooke respects each dog understanding which rule to teach. She knows how to teach dogs what they need know to be a great family member.”
Loraine, Rescue Dog Mom | Englewood
Calmer, More Responsive On and Off Leash
“Loki is now more relaxed and responsive to our commands on and off leash. Brooke taught us about dog behavior and gave us the tools we needed to move forward in a way that benefits both us and Loki.”
Carol, Golden Retriever Mom | Englewood
I frequently partner with dog guardians throughout northern Bergen County — including Ho-Ho-Kus, Ridgewood, Tenafly, Ramsey, Demarest, Oradell, and Closter.
Your Questions Answered
Transparency matters. Here you’ll find clear answers to common questions about our training process and what to expect.
-
The number of lessons depends on your dog’s goals, temperament, and your desired level of involvement. During your initial consultation, I’ll recommend a clear training plan so you know exactly what to expect.
-
The right option depends on how involved you’d like to be in the hands-on training process.
Option 1 - Coaching: You'll observe the trainer demonstrate the techniques, then it's your turn to practice. Weekly meetings are scheduled, and it's important for you to continue practicing what you learn during your private lessons throughout the week.
Option 2 - Canine Concierge: Our premium service includes three training sessions per week for your dog. All necessary training supplies are provided. You'll attend one lesson a week to witness the progress your dog has made.
-
The Canine Concierge program provides many benefits of traditional board-and-train while keeping you fully involved and informed throughout the process. You can watch every trainer and dog only lesson or just join the weekly transfer lesson—it’s up to you. If you’re juggling a busy schedule or find repetitive training a chore, this package is for you.

We provide in-home training throughout northern Bergen County. Families we regularly work with include those in Ho-Ho-Kus, Ridgewood, Demarest, Tenafly, Ramsey, Oradell, Closter, and Englewood.
Because lessons take place in your home and neighborhood, travel availability may vary slightly based on scheduling, but most nearby towns are comfortably within our service area.
If you live outside our travel radius, our online training program allows you to receive the same guidance wherever you are.
Behavior change becomes possible when you have a clear plan and the right support guiding each step forward.
My role is to lead the training process thoughtfully — building skills first, then helping you confidently maintain them for lasting success.
Choose the level of support that best fits your goals, schedule, and how involved you’d like to be in the training process.
