Welcome to the Pack!
What We Do
Training Services
Rather than strictly obedience training, our training philosophy is based out of an undestanding of dog psychology and body language to allow owners to create a stronger relationship with their dog. Through gaining a deeper understanding of your dog , it will provide you the tools and knowledge to manage common behavioural issues as well as hyperactivity, over-excitement, reactivity, anxiety and aggression. Below you can find a list of our training options to best suit you and your dog! All sessions are tailored to the needs and issues of the dog.
Individual Session:
In our individual sessions, we are able to cover specific behavioral issues you are experiencing with your dog or cover a specific training topic. Some example topics are how to achieve a calm loose leash walk, puppy basics, potty training, crate training, excessive barking, jumping up, recall, socialization etc.
These sessions are offered at an hourly rate for 1 dog with an additional rate for a second dog. Each session is typically 2-3 hours depending on the severity of the issues and sessions are done in home.

We've got a top notch team!
Lili Romeo
Owner and Head Trainer
At an early age, I knew I was going to pursue a career with dogs. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life but my true passion for canines started with my childhood dog, a miniature poodle named Domino and from there my love for dogs only grew. In 2017, I founded Leader of the Pack Professional Dog Services which has allowed me to successfully fulfill my dream of helping both dogs and their humans acheive a more balanced and harmonious relationship based out of a deep understanding of dog pyschology and behaviour.Over the years, I've had the honour of training and working with numerous trainers all over North America such as Cesar Millan and Heather Beck to gaining more knowledge to further help our KW community!My pack of pups (Sadie, Lady and Georgie) and I are so grateful to be apart of such a wonderful region of passionate dog lovers and can't thank all of our family, friends, clients and community members enough for all their support!
Kate Taylor
Head Pack Leader
I’m Kate. I attended training at the Dog Psychology Centre with Lili in 2017. Currently I work from home as a reflexologist (right now just for humans), so i enjoy the flexibility to join and help with the pack walks during the week!I have a 7 year old mixed breed rescue dog named Hammer who also attends the walks! While he can be shy and has been working on some social skills , there truly is nothing he enjoys more than a calm pack walk with his buddies. Except maybe treats! He loves snacks!
