About Us!
Meet head trainer and owner, Samantha! Samantha always has had a love for animals of all shapes and sizes growing up. When she adopted her first dog as an adult, he challenged her skills and pushed her to grow as a dog owner. Samantha dove head first into this challenge and quickly developed a passion to learn the ins and outs of how dogs think and behave. After learning from a variety of resources in the dog world, Stellar Canine was born! In her free time, Samantha enjoys competing in a variety of dog sports with her personal pups and planning continued education trips so she can continue to give her four-legged students the best available training!
Stellar Canine provides a range of private and group classes to fit you and your dog's individual needs. From social skills to being a canine good citizen, we have personalized training programs to reach your goals!
Satisfied Owners. Happier Pets.
I have worked with Samantha on training for 3 of our dogs and boarding whenever we are out of town. I truly cannot say how INCREDIBLE she really is. She is someone that loves my babies as much as I do and it shows when our babies are so happy and excited to see her. We trust her completely and recommend her to everyone that we know.
Sam is fantastic, I've left Nike many places to board and Sam is by far "our" favorite. When we get there Nike always runs up to the front door. That is a great sign!

We had a great experience! Our 8 month old Golden Retriever was quite a handful. Sam met with us & spent time getting to know not only Bella but us as well & how Bella fit into our household & daily lives, Her confidence, knowledge, patience & calm demeanor put us & Bella at ease & we immediately knew we were in good hands. Bella spent two weeks in training & Sam kept us updated on her progress with pictures & videos, When Bella came home, Sam again spent an unlimited amount of time with us to reinforce the importance of continuing to hold Bella accountable. She gave us all the tools to continue to make Bella the best version of herself. This has been an invaluable experience. We are so pleased with Bella's behavior & are enjoying doing more fun things with her every day!!

Samantha has taken such good care of our 2 dogs on several occasions over the last year and a half. She sends us photos and keeps updated on their activities. Knowing that they are being loved on and cared for in a safe environment makes going away much easier. I contact Sam to see if she has availability before I commit to vacation dates. The pick up and drop off service is so convenient and stress free. They come home happy and healthy every time and while we miss them while we are away we have peace of mind knowing they are in Sam's care.
