About Us

Hey there!

I'm so glad you're here, looking for a professional to help you stop pulling your hair out over every puddle of pee, every chewed up shoe, every minute spent trying to get an uncooperative dog back inside so you can get to work.

I know what it's like to have a dog who just won't listen and makes you just want to give up, maybe even consider rehoming them. You just wish somebody would tell you how to train them the right way, but there is so much conflicting information online and it's hard to tell which methods actually work.

Look no further, I've done all the research and found what works best so you don't have to waste anymore of your precious time!

We're here for YOU!

I’m Nicole, professional dog trainer, mom, and veteran. Since 2016 I’ve been helping dog owners all around the Minot area find solutions for their dogs’ crazy behaviors. I’m so thankful to have been able to share my experience and knowledge with dog owners to stop everything from jumping to pulling on leash to running away and tormenting the neighbors. It’s always so rewarding to hear that I’ve helped someone actually enjoy having a dog again, and that they don’t worry about chasing their dog through the neighborhood anymore!

I know how frustrating it can be to have a dog who doesn’t listen, who chews up everything in sight, and drags you down the street – not to mention embarrassing! So many dogs are rehomed due to these very issues every day, which is why I’ve dedicated years to learning the most efficient and effective ways to stop nuisance behaviors and teach dogs how they should behave. 


I truly love working with dogs and their owners to find solutions to everyday problems, and because every dog is different I pride myself on having multiple approaches to every behavior so we can find what works best for each individual. That’s why I am always learning and always looking for better ways to help dogs understand how to live with us in a human society. That’s also why I’m confident that I can help you with just about any problem you may be having with your dog.


In 2023 & 2024 I added two AMAZING ladies to my training team, both of whom have continued to achieve the same results with our clients that I have always strived for. They each bring their own special touch to our training process, and I know you'll love working with any of us here at Tandem Dog Training!

I'd love to hear about what's going on with your dog! Contact us today so we can find a program that fits you and your dog.
