Founded in 2023 by Sherry Garcia, Side by Side Dog Training LLC is more than just a training service, it’s a safe space for dogs who need a little extra patience, understanding, and care. With over 17 years of experience working hands-on with rescue dogs through a no kill animal organization, Sherry has developed a deep compassion and unique skill set for helping dogs who struggle with fear, anxiety, and trust issues.

As a fear dog specialist, Sherry’s mission is to help pet parents navigate the emotional and behavioral challenges that come with fearful or under socialized dogs. Her approach is grounded in empathy, positive reinforcement, and a deep respect for each dog’s pace and personality.
