CareyTrainsMe Services

 

Creating calm, confident city dogs for life,  one structured farm stay at a time.

Choosing the right training path shouldn’t feel overwhelming. At CareyTrainsMe, every service is designed to meet dogs where they are, whether they’re overwhelmed, excitable, fearful, or just needing clarity and consistency to thrive.
Your dog’s journey begins with a free consultation, where we learn about your goals, assess your dog’s needs, and determine the best program fit.

 

Board & Train Programs

Structured training. Real-world results. A peaceful farm environment you can trust.

All board & train dogs live in-home on my 5-acre Aldergrove hobby farm, not in kennels. Dogs learn through daily structure, enrichment, calmness training, social exposure, confidence-building, and personalized behaviour plans. Each program includes client coaching sessions, follow-up support, and a tailored home-transition plan.

​

Puppy Boarding School (8–20 weeks)

Build strong foundations early.
For puppies learning manners, social skills, confidence, crate training, potty training, and calmness. Ideal for new puppy owners wanting a smooth, structured start.

Best for: Socialization, preventing future behaviour issues, building great habits from day one.

 

Hyper to Calm (Excitable, Impulsive Dogs)

For dogs who can’t settle, jump on guests, pull on leash, or have a “go-go-go” energy.
This program builds impulse control, calmness, focus, and frustration tolerance so your dog can finally relax and think.

Best for: Over-excitement, poor focus, leash pulling, impulsivity.

 

Fearful to Confident (Shy, Shutdown, Anxious Dogs)

For nervous dogs who need time, patience, and clear communication.
Your dog learns resilience, safe exposure, emotional regulation, and the confidence to navigate the world without panic.

Best for: Fearfulness, reactivity rooted in fear, noise sensitivity, hesitation around new people or environments.

 

Leash Manners & Rocket Recall Program

A focused immersion for dogs who struggle with pulling, distractions, or unreliable recall.
Through structured practice on the farm and in real-world environments, your dog learns how to walk politely and return every time you call.

Best for: Daily walks, off-leash reliability, safety skills.
