About My Services
At Pacific Paws, I recognize that every pet is special, that’s why I tailor training and care to meet their specific needs.

Whether you’re looking to improve your dog’s behavior, teach basic obedience skills, enhance communication with your dog, or establish strong behavioral foundations for your new puppy, my training services are designed to meet your needs!
My training approach is rooted in positive reinforcement and relationship-based training to foster a well-rounded and balanced connection between you both. While part of my role is training your dog, the other equally important part is guiding you.
That’s why my training services involve active participation, a fresh perspective on your dog’s behavior and an openness to constructive feedback. This will ensure a relationship where your dog looks to you for guidance and leadership, strengthening a more cooperative bond.

My services are designed to enrich your dog's life with a combination of novelty, fulfillment, and plenty of engaging exercise. By aligning your dog's lifestyle with their inherent biological and emotional needs, you can directly improve their overall health and happiness — and yours! Every dog needs a life filled with both mental and physical stimulation, customized to suit their unique breed and personality, and it takes a dedicated owner to make this happen. That’s why I’m wholeheartedly committed to helping both dogs and their owners unleash their full potential together, creating a joyful and thriving partnership!

About Me
Hi! My name is Sophia, owner/operator of Pacific Paws Training & Care!
Throughout my life, animals have always held a very special place in my heart. Growing up surrounded by pets, I developed a deep passion for enriching their lives. With several years of experience in pet care and volunteering at animal rescue shelters in Portland OR, I’m dedicated to helping animals and their owners thrive. In 2019, I moved to Eugene to pursue my Bachelor’s of Science in Biological Anthropology at the University of Oregon, graduating in 2021. Since then, I’ve committed myself to pet care full-time. In 2024, I completed my certification in dog training knowledge (CDTK) from CATCH Canine Trainers Academy and I am so thrilled to take this next step in supporting animals and their owners!
I would greatly appreciate your feedback! Please leave a review here.
