Christine Snelgrove, CDBC
CEO & Owner
I’m Christine the owner, head trainer, and founder of Bauser’s Pet Training.
I am a Certified Dog Behavior Consultant, Certified Accredited Pet Trainer, Certified Trick Dog Instructor, and have my PetTech CPR & First AID Certificate of completion.
I am an American Kennel Club (AKC) Canine Good Citizen (CGC) evaluator and instructor, a Professional with the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT), a Professional with the International Association of Canine Professionals (IACP), and a mentor for Animal Behavior College (ABC).
As the owner, I have been involved with canines for many years. I utilize various training modalities in my work with dogs of all ages and sizes while instructing owners too. I am experienced in obedience at all levels, behavior, back yard agility, and tricks as well as working equally well with passive and aggressive dogs. Training is based on positive reinforcement using Least Intrusive and Minimally Aversive (LIMA) style training in group and private sessions.
Cindy Carlson
Co-Owner & Assistant Trainer
Hi. I’m Cindy the co-owner, and Assistant Trainer of Bauser’s Pet Training. I have learned to train dogs, hands on, with Christine over the past 8 years in obedience at all levels, back yard agility, Rally-Obedience, and Tricks. I have my PetTech CPR & First AID Certificate of completion. Cats are my first love and through that I have grown to love dogs just as well. Cats need enrichment just as much as our canine friends. Keep a look out for our Feline Training classes. I have learned a lot about animal learning theory and how to train dogs and cats using positive training methods. The training is based on positive reinforcement using Least Intrusive and Minimally Aversive (LIMA) style training in group and private sessions.
Santana A | CDPT-KA
Pet Trainer
I’m Santana! I’m a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA), and I’ve completed PetTech’s Pet CPR & First Aid training. I recently made the move from Texas to sunny South Florida! Southern hospitality guaranteed, y’all included!
From puppies learning the basics to dogs working through advanced obedience, I offer private lessons and group classes for all stages of training. I believe teaching the humans is just as important as teaching the dogs! After all, you’re the one taking these skills home, and my goal is to give you the knowledge, confidence, and tools to continue building on your success long after class ends.
My favorite part of training is creating an environment where creativity, curiosity, and open-mindedness are encouraged. I want both you and your pup to feel comfortable exploring new things, learning from each other, and having fun along the way! More than anything, I want to help you build an unbreakable bond with your dog that goes far beyond the classroom.
And when I’m not training someone else’s dog, my own pup, Crimson, is usually busy teaching me a thing or two!

Pet Trainer
Meet Lizmar
My journey with dogs started with love-and grew into a purpose. As a trainer, I’m passionate about helping others build life-changing partnerships with their service dogs.
I specialize in service dog foundations, task work, and trick training-because a strong bond isn’t just built through work, but through play and connection, too. I believe training should be empowering, uplifting, and tailored to each unique team.
Whether you’re preparing your dog for service work or looking to strengthen your bond, I’m here to walk beside you-one paw at a time.

Pet Trainer
Meet Jessica J
Hello, my name is Jessica but most call me either Jessi, Jess, or JJ. Since at a very young age, I have always had such passion/love for all types of animals especially dogs. I grew up on a farm and as I grew older all I ever wanted to do was study animals or to become a vet tech to help every animal in need as well as give them the perfect home. That’s when I soon realized that this is something I see myself doing for the rest of my life!
Over at Bauser’s Pet Training, I have the opportunity to help socialize dogs and meet their needs while encouraging their lives. Not only do I enrich their lives, but I also prioritize building confidence with the dogs so that they are fully confident with themselves in daily life situations. Come experience what enrichment with us can do for your dog!
