Hi! I’m Persephone Arlen Addison (she/her), a professional dog trainer offering personalized, one-on-one, in-home training tailored to your dog and your lifestyle.

I work with puppies and adult dogs, focusing on practical skills, confidence, and long-term behavior change.

I’m a great fit if you’re looking for:

  • Gentle, science-based training (no fear or punishment)

  • Support with puppies, manners, reactivity, or behavior challenges

  • A trainer who focuses on both dog and human learning

  • Clear guidance without judgment or pressure

Personalized Training That Fits Your Needs

I've been a professional dog trainer for four years, at PetSmart and now working independently. My background includes a Bachelor’s degree in Biology, and as an autistic trainer, working with dogs and their people is a lifelong special interest that shapes my thoughtful, detail-oriented approach.

To me, there’s no such thing as a “problem dog”—only dogs who need a little extra patience and the right kind of attention to get on the right track. My training is based on positive reinforcement and behavior science. That means no shock collars, no punishment, and no intimidation—just clear communication, consistency, and rewards that help dogs learn faster and feel safe.

All training sessions are intentionally 90 minutes, allowing time for thoughtful observation, hands-on coaching, and clear guidance without rushing learning.

  • Single Session: $110 (90 minutes)

  • 3-Session Package: $315 (save $15)

  • 5-Session Package: $515 (save $35)

Training is a learning process, and progress depends on consistency between sessions. I do not offer quick fixes, but rather science-based, individualized support designed for lasting change.

A free consultation is available to ensure we’re a good fit and to set clear expectations before we begin. Packages are optional and designed to support consistency over time.
