About The Trainer

Cade Overturf

Cade has been around many dogs his whole life. Growing up with dog training and boarding in his house due to his father’s business gave him a lot of hands-on experience throughout most stages of his life. One of his earliest memories with dog training was as a toddler, helping carry bowls to the various boarding dogs at dinner time, making sure to tell each of them “Bone-appetit” as he placed the bowls down. Cade’s 5th birthday party was even dog themed. Shortly after, he moved to Costa Rica for the rest of his childhood. After moving back to California, he assisted with training of the dogs that came to stay and board for his father’s business, Your Best Companion Dog Behavior and Training. Continuously learning more about what was effective for dogs and building a passion for helping dogs be their best selves. As an adult Cade showed interest in his father’s training business and took his father’s advice and became certified as a dog trainer at Animal Behavior College to add to what he was learning from his dad. Cade’s training and love for seeing the positive impact training can make in his own life and his own dog is what prompted the choice to help other people with their own dogs. Cade continues to learn from other sources about alternative training methods in order to get a broader perspective on dog behavior and training and be able to better help his clients.

What Client Say About Us

Thank you so very much for the training and good advice for Maggie and me. It was a pleasure to meet and work with you. I enjoyed the process, and will continue with the lessons that we learned from you. You are a very special person, as well as a wonderful trainer. I would definitely recommend you.

Jackie Ross

Cade trained my golden retriever Jacob and me several years ago. The reason I say she trained both of us is because she gives you the tools to continue training on your own. I had five private sessions with Cade, and Jacob has become the most well trained dog I’ve ever had. It was totally worth the investment! Cade is knowledgeable, patient and kind, yet assertive when necessary. I will definitely hire Cade again in the future.

Sharon Cohen

Our beagle puppy, Bandit, used to run out the front door every time we opened it, jump on our table and eat our dinner before we could get to it, and growl at us when we tried to discipline him. We knew we needed professional help with his training. I researched and interviewed several trainers, and chose Cade because she made us and our dog feel comfortable from the first time we met her.

She came over once a week and trained me how to train my dog. It didn’t take long before Bandit walked beside me for off-leash walks, and was a perfect member of our household. Thank you, Cade, for helping Bandit become a happy, well-behaved dog!

Monique Klarich

I signed up for a group class with Cade, and I highly recommend him for your dog training needs! Cade always had a great attitude! Her handling of each dog was consistent and with a gentle authority. It’s clear she knows what she’s doing. It amazed me how quickly all the dogs responded to his commands. Cade had total control of each situation.

Behaviors such as barking, chewing, digging – Cade’s training techniques conquered each one. She made dog training look easy! I was extremely impressed with how well all the owners and dogs did by the end of the sessions. And after the course whenever I had a question, Cade took the time to walk me through the problem step by step, making sure I was confident I could handle the situation before hanging up the phone. Cade is an outstanding dog trainer!
