Hello there! I am so glad you landed here! My name is Sarah Pellizzari, and I am an Animal Assisted Therapist as well as a professional Animal Trainer. Whether you are here to explore my animal assisted therapy services, which I offer in a professional office setting, or my private dog training services, I'm excited that you are here!
My passion lies in understanding behavior and communication across species. I've discovered that the core principles of building trust, positive reinforcement, and reading nonverbal cues are remarkably similar whether working with humans or animals. This dual perspective enhances both sides of my practice - my experience with family dynamics strengthens my approach to training dogs in home settings, while my animal behavior expertise brings unique insights to therapeutic work. I believe that clear communication and strong relationships are the foundation of growth and healing, regardless of species.
