OUR SERVICES
Are you tired of feeling guilty when you leave? Do you want to stop feeling trapped and see your dog happy again? If this is you, Zen Critter can help! We offer a number of training options to help you get your life back.
45 Minute Separation Anxiety Consultation
World Wide
We begin with a Google Meet consultation (about 40–60 minutes), where we dive into:
- Separation anxiety myths (like crates, toys, food puzzles, and medications)
- How the training process works
- What needs to happen for training to succeed (especially managing absences)
A consultation must be done prior to signing up for training.
Separation Anxiety Light Program
- A 30 minute initial assessment to determine a starting point for training.
- One 30 minute check-in session every other week (4 total).
- Up to 5 customized training plans each week via SA Pro Training App (up to 35 total).
- Coaching and support throughout the program.
All separation anxiety training is conducted entirely online via Google Meet. If I were physically in the house, your dog would behave differently. To truly help them learn calm behavior when you’re gone, they need to practice being alone without a stranger present. Online sessions let your dog experience real alone time, not a staged demo during an in-person visit. I can observe quietly and guide you in real-time (or through recordings) without influencing your dog’s natural behavior.
Managing absences is a crucial part of the work. If making adjustments to absence schedules isn’t feasible, it can make training less likely to succeed. That’s completely okay—I’ll share this upfront because I want everyone to have the best shot at success before investing in a program.

We believe every dog deserves great training, and every family’s situation is unique. If cost ever feels like a barrier, feel free to reach out. We’re always happy to talk and find something that works.

What Our Clients Say
Watson’s separation anxiety was a huge source of stress for us. We felt discouraged that none of our efforts seemed to help. We felt as though we were planning our lives around leaving him alone for as little time as possible, and felt guilty whenever we couldn’t take him with us. Working with you has decreased these negative feelings, and has helped us to feel empowered with the skills and knowledge to help our pup. We have been extremely appreciative of your thoughtful guidance from the very beginning, and how you’ve crafted the entire training process to meet our family’s unique needs. We are so encouraged by the progress we’ve seen thus far and are thankful for the opportunity to continue working with you!
