About Me

Dog Trainer in Baltimore, MD | Baltimore K9 Tutors

Hi, I’m Hannah (she/they), the trainer behind Baltimore K9 Tutors.

I work with thoughtful dog guardians who want to better understand their dogs—whether you’re working through everyday challenges or more complex behavior concerns.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure what to do next—and still trying really hard to do right by your dog...you're in the right place!

Dog Training That Actually Feels Good (for Both of You)

You don’t need more control.
You need clarity, support, and a plan that makes sense for your dog.

My work focuses on:

Reactive dog training in Baltimore
Fear, anxiety, and behavior modification
Cooperative care (vet visits, nail trims, handling)
Puppy foundations and relationship building

Everything I do is:
✔ Positive reinforcement-based
✔ Backed by behavioral science
✔ Tailored to your dog’s individual needs
✔ Designed to support both ends of the leash

Because training isn’t just about compliance—it’s about your relationship.

My Approach

I specialize in working with dogs who don’t fit the “easy” mold.

Dogs who:

Bark, lunge, or shut down
Struggle with handling or restraint
Feel overwhelmed by the world around them

And humans who:

Feel exhausted, confused, or stuck
Want to do the right thing—but don’t know what that is
Care deeply about their dog’s emotional wellbeing

Together, we focus on:

Reducing stress (not just stopping behavior)
Building communication and trust
Creating sustainable, real-life change

Meet My Helper Dog

This is Potato!

Potato is my current companion & helper dog, and like many of the dogs I work with, he’s on his own learning journey. He helps support training sessions for dogs working through reactivity and social skills—at a pace that feels safe and appropriate for everyone involved.
