Pack Leader/Level 5 IDTA Trainer | Specialty Certificate: Therapy Dog Trainer, Service Dog Trainer

Michelle was born in Philadelphia and has lived in New Orleans since 2003. Her husband, Brandon, is a local New Orleanian and wanted to raise their 3 sons in his hometown so they could experience all that New Orleans has to offer. Michelle has been a training and development expert for over 25 years in the retail and service industry. She has spent the last 15 years pursuing her passion for training humans as a Director of Human Resources and in 2022 decided to turn her attention to dogs! Together, Michelle and Brandon opened their business. Always Faithful Dog Training has allowed her the opportunity to run a locally-owned business that makes her proud. “I have always loved training and the structure it brings to my life. And even though my background has previously been training in the corporate world, I now have a business that lets me help people in my community become responsible and loving dog owners – both for themselves and their dog. Owning a dog is a choice and I want to help people learn to love the journey with their dog as much as the dog loves their human.”
