Megan
General Manager & Lead Trainer
Megan is our resident behavior nerd — and we say that with love. With more than a decade of experience in dog training, shelter support, and behavior consulting, Megan brings serious expertise wrapped in warmth, humor, and real-talk honesty.
As Paws Around Motown’s Lead Trainer, Megan specializes in positive reinforcement and science-backed methods. Whether she’s coaching a new puppy through polite leash manners or helping a reactive dog build confidence, she’s deeply committed to ethical, compassionate, and effective training.
Megan is CPDT-KA certified and constantly staying sharp through continuing education, seminars, and mentorship. Her superpower? Making behavior concepts approachable for pet parents. She believes in progress over perfection — and that dog training should feel like a win for both ends of the leash.
She’s also a go-to mentor for our team, helping our techs and enrichment specialists grow their behavior chops with clarity and confidence. Clients love Megan for her insight, follow-through, and the way she celebrates every tail wag, big or small.
Outside of training sessions, you’ll find Megan hiking with her dogs, diving into the latest canine behavior research, or crying happy tears when a once-nervous dog nails their recall.
