Services
Behavior evaluation and INTERVENTIOn for dogs and cats
We’ll take the time to get your pet’s complete history including health, home environment, and relationships with other members of your family. We’ll also discuss specific problem triggers and recommended solutions, both short-term and long-term.
We charge a standard hourly rate of $100 that is applied to all services, including time spent:
- Conducting a behavioral evaluation of your pet by video call or at your home (1.5 to 2 hours)
- Developing and discussing your personalized behavioral recommendations and training plan (1 to 1.5 hours)
- Traveling to and from your home for any in-person evaluation or training session
Most cases fall in this range of 2.5 to 3.5 hours ($250 to $350), exclusive of any travel time.
For pets with severe behavior issues, in-person training may be indicated. Based on the training plan developed either by us or another approved behaviorist, we conduct hourly training and behavior modification sessions.
In-person training requires your active participation. One to two sessions are typically required. The same $100/hour rate applies.
