Certified Dog Trainer – East Bay, CA

Shell Kaminsky is a balanced dog trainer with nearly nine years of professional experience helping dogs and their owners build lasting success together. As the former Head Trainer and Operations Manager at a respected California board-and-train program, she has worked with hundreds of dogs ranging from family companions and puppies to advanced obedience, behavior modification, and service dogs.

Shell is a graduate of the ProTrain Institute Professional Dog Trainer program, an IACP member, and an AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator.

Shell believes successful training comes from teaching the owner just as much as the dog. Clients consistently praise her patience, professionalism, and ability to explain concepts in a way that builds confidence for the entire family. Whether she’s working with a young puppy learning life’s first lessons, helping a family overcome challenging behaviors, or preparing a dog for advanced obedience, Shell focuses on clear communication, consistency, and practical training that creates lasting results.
