Transforming Dogs With Love
1-On-1 Dog Training Programs
Two sibling dogs grew up together. Each was then adopted by a loving family and went their separate ways.
Years later, they reunited and went on a journey together where they faced a series of challenges.
After the journey, one dog remained the same, easily overcoming challenges and enjoying life as before. The other, however, became deeply traumatized, turning fearful, reactive, and occasionally aggressive.
What made the difference between these two dogs?
It’s not about the size of the challenge, but about your dog’s ability to handle it.
It’s heart-wrenching, and yet as the dog parent you feel powerless to help your dog.
To make matters worse, dog parent’s instinct is to control and enforce obedience. This often increases our dog’s stress, worsening the problem instead of solving it.
Raised voices, mixed messages, or asking them to stop barking can unintentionally confuse your dog, increasing their anxiety and even aggression.
The truth is your dog is a sensitive soul that needs understanding; not correction. They need a safe space to learn and grow; not judgment, punishment or control!!
If you love and respect your dog. If you want to help them overcome their fears and thrive, then let’s embark on this journey together. It will be a win-win outcome for both of you 🙂
Who Is This For?
This is for dog parents who truly care about their dog’s emotional well-being and want to understand and support them—not “fix” them. It’s for those who recognize that their dogs aren’t giving them a hard time, but are having a hard time navigating our overwhelming, chaotic modern world.
You’re in the right place if your dog…
Has an exhausted nervous system and gets easily triggered
Struggles to cope with the sensory overload of busy streets, crowded parks, or loud noises
Feels unseen, unheard, or misunderstood—despite your best efforts
Is reactive due to fear, confusion, or unmet needs
Has been labeled as “aggressive” (spoiler: there’s no such thing—only stressed or misunderstood dogs)
Has any form of separation anxiety or anxious attachment
Has been through a past trauma that shifted how they see and experience the world
Missed out on early socialization and is still learning what healthy, trusting relationships feel like
Is a rescue dog or of any breed—because we go far beyond labels and breed stereotypes
Recently moved to Canada and is still adjusting to a new life
Is a puppy or teenager—the earlier we start, the better
Is a senior dog - because healing and growth have no age limit
Is a special needs dog—and that requires tailored care and adjustments
And you, the dog parent, are…
Feeling overwhelmed by conflicting dog training advice that just doesn’t feel right
Trying obedience training, only to find that it made things worse and caused more stress
Struggling to reconnect with your dog and rebuild trust after a tough period
Feeling anxious about how to safely and kindly handle your dog in triggering situations
A first-time dog parent—and wants to start on the right foot

What Is Holistic Dog Training?
It is a process to transform, empower and boost your dog’s confidence to navigate their environment and social interactions. All while strengthening the bond between the two of you.
And since you and your dog impact each other emotionally and energetically, we’ll also explore your triggers, feelings, and mindset.
A confident dog requires a confident supportive parent.
Here’s How I Can Help:
Since behaviour doesn’t happen in a vacuum. I will work with both of you individually and on your relationship dynamics.
My holistic approach will boost your dog’s confidence, enhance their well-being, and turn challenges into opportunities for learning and growth.
By the end of this program, you will both gain confidence, peace of mind, and find joy in every moment together. Life will become fun and exciting for both of you, as it’s meant to be 🙂
We Will Cover Everything:
– Mind, Heart, Body & Bowl: A holistic approach to nutrition, lifestyle, behaviour and enrichment.
– Empowerment: So your dog develops a strong sense of self to navigate their environment and handle everything and everyone in it.
– Decoding Behavior: Understanding and dissolving the root causes of behavior problems.
– Emotional Support: Practical strategies to manage your emotions constructively while supporting your dog.
– Canine Communication: Learning to read and respond to your dog’s cues in ways that show a deeper understanding and respect they’ll appreciate.
– Lifestyle Integration: Effective daily routines to meet your dog’s needs and wants, and works with your schedule.
Is Holistic Dog Training Right For You?
I’m a holistic dog trainer, so treating dogs with love & respect is non-negotiable. This is a win-win approach for both of you 🙂
Holistic dog training programs are right for you if:
– You have an urgent problem, face a dilemma, and seek radical improvements.
– You value your time, seek transformation and long lasting results; not information.
– You love & respect your dogs, truly want to solve their problems, and make them happy.
– You are ready to commit to a training program.
– You are willing to actively participate and implement the training (This is not about doing more, it’s about doing things differently).
– You are willing to provide me with updates, so we can effectively determine the next steps. This is a progressive training.
This is NOT for you if you are looking for information, quick fixes, or if you can’t let go of obedience, superiority, control, or the use of abusive devices of any kind.
If you are not sure, we can start with a dog online coaching session

Please submit a booking request with your goals, lifestyle, and what kind of support you’re looking for. I’ll follow up personally with a custom quote and let you know if Haven is the right fit for you and your dog.
How Dog Training Works
If you have more than 1 dog, and for dog-to-dog introduction, please request a quote in your booking request.
My programs are designed to create deep, lasting transformation — not quick fixes.
Please review the descriptions carefully and choose the training program that best matches your goals and your dog’s needs.
Where & How We Meet
– In-person sessions are available within Vancouver central locations.
– If you live outside my service area but not too far (North/West Van, burnaby, Richmond, etc), we can still meet up within my service area and do some follow-up sessions together 🙂
– Otherwise our sessions will be remotely via zoom video calling.
There’s absolutely no difference in effectiveness between in-person and remote sessions — because in every case, you’re the one implementing the training. I’ll be with you every step of the way, guiding, supporting, and adjusting as needed. 😊
The Initial Consult Session
Every program begins with a 2-hour initial consultation where we dive deep into your dog’s needs, lifestyle, and behavior. You’ll receive a personalized follow-up email with a personality assessment, behavior insights, training plan, and practical next steps.
Monthly Follow-UP Sessions
Each follow-up session is designed to assess progress, adjust the training plan, and guide you through practical, real-time training exercises.
After every session, you’ll receive a personalized follow-up email with your next steps — based on your dog’s feedback and what we covered together.
Exclusive Text Support
I’ll be with you every step of the way through exclusive WhatsApp support — a rare and valuable feature in this industry.
We’ll stay connected through weekly or biweekly check-ins, where you’re invited to share photos, videos, updates, and questions. I’ll review your progress and offer timely, personalized guidance to help you stay on track — adjusting the plan based on your implementation and your dog’s feedback.
Response time: Within 24–48 hours, Wednesday through Sunday (often sooner).
This ensures you get the support you need while honoring a sustainable rhythm for both of us.
Guarantee
Your results are my priority — and I stand behind the process.
As long as you actively participate, implement the recommended changes, and maintain open, consistent communication, you can expect meaningful progress.
If you’re in the right program, doing the work, and your pup’s progress is simply slower than expected, I’ll gladly extend my support at no additional cost until we reach the results we aimed for — together.
I can’t do it for you, but I will never leave you behind if you’re all in.
Payment
Payment is accepted via e-transfer or credit card, and is due either in full upfront or through an automatic monthly payment plan billed on fixed dates.
Refunds & Commitment
– Consultation fees are fully refundable only if cancellation is requested at least 72 hours in advance of your scheduled initial consult.
– Once the initial consult has taken place, all payments are non-refundable, regardless of the payment option selected.
– Commitment is required for the full program duration once the program begins.
Limited Availability
I pour a great deal of time, energy, and care into every client and their unique training journey.
Because of this, I can only take on a limited number of clients at a time. I choose to work exclusively with dog parents who are serious, committed, and ready to show up fully for the process.
If you’re still exploring your options or not quite ready to commit, I invite you to start with a single online coaching session instead — it’s a great way to gain clarity before diving into a full program.
How to Apply
Please submit your application for the program that feels right for you.
I’ll personally review your request and follow up with a payment link if I believe we’re a good fit and I can genuinely support you.
I’m so looking forward to working with you and your exquisite pups 🙂

Doaa is an amazing holistic dog trainer who has helped us with our 1 year old Aussiedoodle.
She gave us valuable insight and guidance on how to be compassionate and understanding dog owners.
Our dog has made tremendous progress interacting with humans and dogs.
★★★★★
Doaa spent three months helping Toby, our senior rescue chihuahua mix, with wonderful results for our family.
She has a true gift for understanding the needs of complex animals. And she came up with workable and creative solutions.
Toby was visibly happier. He barked much less frequently and a stress-related skin condition cleared up.
★★★★★
Our pups love Doaa!
Since working with her, they have gained so much confidence and are much more social with other dogs and people – she really has helped enrich their lives!
The dogs are also a pleasure to walk for us now, which wasn’t always the case with two enthusiastic young puppies.
