Toni's journey as a professional dog trainer began in 2015 at Petco, where she completed an intensive training program and became a certified dog trainer. Her passion for animals, combined with her academic background in psychology, made dog training a natural fit—blending her understanding of both canine behavior and human communication.
In 2017, she expanded her experience by working at a local board-and-train facility while continuing to train at Petco. Over the next two years, she worked hands-on with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments—gaining a deeper understanding of canine behavior and refining her skills across a variety of training techniques.
Today, Toni is a trusted expert known for her patient, empathetic, and results-driven approach. Her training philosophy is rooted in positive reinforcement and clear communication, with a strong focus on tailoring each program to the individual dog’s needs and personality. Whether helping a high-energy puppy learn good manners or guiding an anxious rescue toward confidence, Toni is passionate about helping dogs thrive and supporting their humans every step of the way.

Toni’s love for dogs began early—she got her first furry friend at just two years old. Since then, she has opened her heart and home to six canine companions, each one rescued from shelters or found on the streets. Her dedication to giving these dogs a loving home is at the heart of everything she does. Today, Toni shares her life with two beloved dogs, Nova (left) and Madeline (right).
