Erin Sinski - Trainer

Erin Sinski is a native of Northern Virginia and has been a life long dog owner and lover. She also grew up riding horses and actively competed in the hunters growing up and throughout college. She currently owns two dogs, a black lab mix and an Aussie mix.

Erin got into dog training with her most recent dog when she sought help for his behavioral issues. After seeing the difference a good training program and proper tools could make, she become interested in all things dog related. She knew what it felt like to feel helpless or out of control with your dog and wanted to help others find that same balance in their relationship with their dog. Erin was lucky enough to come on to the Off Leash Northern Virginia team where she has been privileged to learn from some of the best trainers around. Erin has since been able to apply her experience to help other dog owners and continues to expand her training knowledge. Erin loves working with all breeds and sizes of dogs. She especially loves being apart of the lesson program and getting to see the growth of the owner and dog week after week as they master each new command. Erin believes that every new dog that walks in the door is a new challenge and teaches her something new. Dog training sure is not dull, but she loves every second of it!
