Who North Paw Is:

Hi, I’m Victoria — the founder of North Paw Dog Training based in Calgary, Alberta. With years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments, I’ve built my business around one simple goal: to help pets and their people feel calmer, more connected, and more confident together.

North Paw was born out of my passion for real-world, results-based leash training and my deep love for animals who thrive in structured, respectful environments. I specialize in 1-on-1 leash training walks that correct pulling, reactivity, and overstimulation — without gimmicks or harsh methods. Just grounded, consistent guidance.

I also offer in-home overnight pet sitting for both dogs and cats, allowing pets to stay comfortable in their own environment while their owners are away. Whether I’m walking, training, or house-sitting, I treat every animal like they’re my own — with patience, reliability, and a calm, grounded presence.

While I don’t hold formal training certifications, my work is rooted in real-life experience, observation, and years of direct care. I believe every animal deserves to feel safe and understood — and I’m here to help make that happen.
