About Us
Cape Cod Dog Trainer
Emily Catignani has spent more than a decade helping Cape Cod dogs and their people find their rhythm together. Her specialty is the kind of training that shows up in everyday life, basic obedience, clear manners, and practical problem solving that makes mornings, walks, and visitors at the door feel easier. Emily’s approach is positive and science-based, with enough structure to keep things simple: meet the dog where they are, build the right habits, and practice in a way that actually sticks.
When Emily is not coaching families, she is out training and competing with her own dogs in agility, nosework, and dock diving. That sport-dog background gives her a sharp eye for motivation, focus, and teamwork, and she brings that same understanding into pet training. If your dog is high-energy, easily distracted, or just needs a better outlet, Emily helps you channel that drive into productive skills and fun routines.
Clients know Emily for her patient, down-to-earth coaching style. She breaks training into clear steps, explains the why behind what you are doing, and makes sure you leave each session with a plan you can follow. Whether you are starting fresh with a puppy or working through everyday behavior challenges, Emily’s goal is to help you build trust, better communication, and a dog you truly enjoy living with.
