Virtual behavior & home environment consultations for dogs & cats

Is Your Pet Struggling?

Behavior problems are stressful for pets and the people who love them. The science of applied animal behavior has taught us that fear, anxiety, and discomfort are at the root of most common pet behavior challenges. Fear Free Spaces offers virtual dog and cat behavior consultations and animal-centered home environment assessments — grounded in applied animal behavior science and Fear Free principles.

Aggression toward people or other animals
