About Evelin
Hello! My name’s Evelin and I can’t wait to meet your dog! I have been in the grooming industry since 2020. I started as a bather and then attended Rio Grooming School in 2021, where I completed a five month program. After completing schooling, I worked as a groomer in Owatonna before getting a job in Lakeville at Fancy Paws Pet Salon. During my time at Fancy Paws, I received years of mentoring and grooming practice under Susan Hatch, who is a world renowned, master certified groomer who competes in competition grooming and conformation. Through this experience of grooming with a show-dog handler, I have learned very detailed, breed specific grooming.
I continue my grooming education by attending seminars, receiving mentorship from other highly-qualified groomers, and constantly learning about different breeds and their trimming styles.
Something that I’m passionate about and isn’t popular in our area (yet!) is creative grooming! I enjoy giving dogs a pop of color or a fun pattern on their tail, ears, legs, etc. If you are interested in this, let’s chat! Be sure to check-out the cheetah print and tie dye creative groom I did on my Boxer, Maze!
My favorite part of grooming is getting to transform a dog and make them comfortable because they are looking and feeling their best. I really love spending one-on-one time with furry friends through both training and grooming alike! My goal is to make everyone feel as welcome and happy as possible; the grooming shop doesn’t have to be scary! I can’t wait to see you, spend time with your pets, and treat them as if they are my own!

How to register & purchase packagesRegistration is required to attend day training. Just hit the "sign-up" button above! This button will forward you to our Paw Partner software. If you are a new client, you will need to create an account first. Once you are logged in, you can make a reservation by clicking Reservation -> Daycare -> select from the drop down menu if you want Basic Day Training (1 training session) or Elite Day Training (3 training sessions). You can reserve as many days as you would like. Scroll down and hit the "save" button and continue through the prompts. Once you get to the package page, you will do one of two things: If you have enough package credits to cover your reservation, you can scroll to the bottom and hit continue and move forward through the prompts. If you do not have enough package credits to cover your reservation, you can purchase the needed credits by selecting the the button under "purchase" and clicking on the card you stored on file. Hit "continue" and be sure to finish moving forward through all the prompts. Want a discounted rate? If you come an average of 1-2 times per week, you can purchase package credits! You can do this in your Paw Partner account through the "Reservations" or the "Package Credits" box. Once purchased, make sure to book out the number of reservations for that package. The credits do expire and it is your responsibility to book them in the allotted timeframe. If you want a guaranteed spot it is best to book in advance, as we are often fill a few weeks out. With that being said, it is always worth adding your dog to the waitlist! Although we cannot make any guarantees, we typically can get in 1-3 dogs each day off the waitlist. You can waitlist for any day we are open by clicking the same "sign-up" button above and following the prompts.

Drop-off & pick-upDrop-off is from 7:00-9:00 a.m. and pick-up is from 3:00-5:30 p.m. Our facility closes at 5:30 p.m. ​ *Please note: there is a late fee of $20 per 15 minutes for any dogs not picked up within 30 minutes of closing. If we cannot get ahold of you, your dog will go home with a trainer and you will be responsible for our board & train rate for the evening. Many or our trainers have young children, other jobs, or dogs to get home to, so we thank you in advance for respecting our time. ​

-
Spay & neuter requirementsWe do take intact males and females. Unless you have arranged otherwise with a trainer, we generally ask for females currently in heat to remain home and not attend daycare.
-
Training prerequisitesAlthough dogs do not need to have any prior training to attend, we strongly encourage you to participate in a minimum of one private lesson, group class, or online class at some point throughout your dogs training. Day training does not include any training with the owners, so it is best to take a class or private lesson to help maintain your dog's obedience skills at home.
-
EvaluationWe do not require evaluations to attend day training, but we do require owners to disclose any possible aggression or reactivity. Please contact us prior to registration if your dog has any history of the following: dog aggression, human aggression, severe resource guarding, or severe separation anxiety.

Training methodsAt Havana Dog Training, we realize every canine is an individual. With each individual dog comes unique personalities, goals, and needs. We use a variety of methods on a case by case basis to achieve these goals. We are a balanced training facility. We rely primarily on positive reinforcement and rewarding dogs for good behavior using marker words in combination with treats, toys, praise, play, and whatever else motivates the dog. This is especially true when laying foundations and training new skills. We don't believe it is fair to punish a dog that hasn't been taught the correct behavior clearly and consistently through positive reinforcement first. With this being said, we do not limit ourselves to only positive reinforcement. We believe that dogs can understand right versus wrong. For effective communication, we use a variety tools which can include food, toys, treats, leash pressure, non-marker words, prong collars, and electronic collars. We are committed to training in a way that is fair to the dog and promotes mutual respect between canine and owner.
