Hi, I'm Courtney Rodriguez. From a young age, I was always drawn to animals. My family jokingly called me “Dr. Dolittle” because I spent my time researching dog and cat breeds and soaking up any animal-related knowledge I could find. It was no surprise when I entered the pet industry. At 18, I left my job at Wawa and began exploring my options, eventually taking an animal control officer course. Though it wasn’t the right fit, it led me to volunteer work at a cat rescue and a bather position at Petsmart, which marked the start of my 13-year grooming career.

Along the way, I gained valuable experience working in a spay clinic as a vet tech, learning more about animal care. Though fulfilling, it wasn’t sustainable as a long-term career, and I returned to grooming. As a groomer, I frequently got asked for dog trainer referrals, and soon I thought, “Why not do it myself?” I began mentoring under a friend, but it wasn’t enough to build a full career. That’s when I found Lauraine’s post on Facebook looking for someone with experience who was eager to learn. I knew right away that this was the opportunity I had been waiting for.

Since joining the team, I’ve seen remarkable transformations—dogs once too fearful to be touched now confidently working with any trainer, and clients willing to invest because of the proven methods and guaranteed results. Seeing how successful the trainers are, while doing what they love, inspires me to keep pushing forward. My start has been slow, but I trust the process, knowing I’m surrounded by a supportive team that wants me to succeed. I’m excited to be a part of this journey and look forward to seeing where it takes me.
