When you love what you do, work is just fun

Where it all began

2010-2013

I received her Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Central Florida.

From there, I went on to study for my Master's of Biology at The University of Kentucky.

This was fun!

2014-2017

I worked with dozens of animals in zoos, wildlife rehabilitation centers, and in a coastal marine lab.

It was the first time I knew I needed to work with animals. My love for them grew more each day, until I decided to open my own business.

When it got real

2017-2021

The Everyday Trainer was born.

Let’s a brief story of why you chose this name.
Turned all my lessons and learnings into my dream: building a dog training business.

What we do

We are all about the state of mind

Dog training is only effective if you want it to be. That’s why I incorporate years of knowledge, practice and studying dog behavior into our programs, so that I can give dog owners what they seek.

What our customers say about us

I just took my pug, Bean, home after he completed a three week board and train with Meghan. She is absolutely phenomenal and caring. I can tell she put a lot of work into his training. She took the time to explain what she worked on and how I can best continue his training and learning. I keep up with her instagram and can tell she puts the same care and effort into working with everyone's dog. She is also very open to answering any question or offering any additional help to me after I've taken him home, which I fine very comforting. I can't recommend Meghan enough!
