My Story
Hi. I’m Mariah Hinds, Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA) and your go-to partner for transforming your dog into the refined companion your lifestyle demands. With 21+ years of exclusive in-home and real-world training across Charlotte, I don’t just teach dogs, I elevate the relationship you share with them, so your home is calm, your walks are effortless, and your outings are stress-free.
We provide the best of scientific & modern positive reinforcement techniques.
— Mariah Hinds, Founder & Head Trainer
I hold CPDT-KA certification, stay on the cutting edge of behavioral science, and bring over a decade and a half of hands-on experience solving the kinds of dog problems no one else wants to touch.
You’re busy, high-standard and demand convenience. My programs are built around your calendar, your space and your rhythm, so training doesn’t feel like extra work, it feels like smart investment.
Every client begins with a conversation, a genuine one. We start by understanding your dog, your household rhythm, and what “well-behaved” looks like in your world. From there, I create a custom plan that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle, not one that disrupts it. Training happens in your environment. Your home, your neighborhood, your favorite walking spots, because that’s where real behavior lives. Along the way, you’ll gain clear, practical tools that make everyday life easier, not more complicated. The process is efficient, elegant, and deeply personal, designed to give you lasting results without the overwhelm.
