Meet Juliet Prey

I’ve helped transform the lives of more than 1,000 dogs and their families as a Behaviour Therapist and Master Dog Trainer with Bark Busters. In addition to operating my own successful training business serving the Scarborough and Durham region, I am also the Co-Owner of Bark Busters Canada, where I train, mentor, and support dog trainers across the country. Helping both dogs and their owners succeed is at the heart of everything I do.

With a background in psychology, teaching, nursing, and adult education, I bring a unique combination of expertise, compassion, and practical knowledge to every family I work with. My lifelong passion for animal behaviour began while growing up on a farm, surrounded by animals and fascinated by the ways they think, learn, and communicate. Today, I combine that passion with my love of teaching, helping families build stronger, more trusting relationships with their dogs.

Before pursuing dog training full-time, I worked as an ICU nurse and clinical instructor, where I discovered how much I enjoyed teaching and guiding others through challenging situations. My first experience with Bark Busters was a turning point. I was amazed by the simplicity and effectiveness of its communication-based training methods and immediately saw an opportunity to combine my passion for animals with my passion for helping people.

As a certified Behaviour Therapist and Master Trainer, I specialize in helping owners better understand their dogs and communicate more effectively with them. Whether I’m setting puppies up for lifelong success, addressing behavioural challenges in adult dogs, or helping families create a calmer home environment, my focus is always on strengthening the bond between people and their canine companions while reducing stress for everyone involved.

My mission is simple: to help dog owners better understand their dogs so they can enjoy a happier, calmer, and more rewarding life together.

We Understand How Frustrating
Dog Behaviour Problems Can Be

Your dog means everything to you. But their behaviour is exhausting you.

    • Your home feels chaotic every single day.
    • Friends and family have stopped coming by.
    • Walks have turned into constant struggles.
    • You’ve invested in classes, tried different tools and methods, and nothing has changed.
    • The relentless barking drains your energy.
    • Their aggressive moments leave you feeling worried.
    • Seeing them panic when you leave breaks your heart.

This can’t go on. But it doesn’t have to.

Why Our Approach Works Where Others Fail:

  • In-home dog training addresses real-world behaviours
  • No punishment-based methods
  • Tools and techniques designed to work long-term, not just mask the problem
  • We train you, not just your dog
  • Results often visible in the first 2–2.5-hour session
  • We offer lifetime support, which means you’re never alone

Scarborough Dog Owners Just Like You Are Finally Enjoying Well-Behaved Dogs

“Juliet is amazing at being there and helping when needed. My dog is crazy. I reached out looking for assistance on her behaviour, and within 1 session already noticed positive changes in my dog. Highly recommend!”

— Victoria Thomas, Scarborough

“We got our husky a month ago, he has no background in training and has struggled walking on a leash without pulling. Within 20 minutes of Juliet showing us how to properly walk him and correct his behaviour, he was walking beside us with NO PULLING!! We’ve never seen him walk so nicely and so relaxed. We are new dog owners and had no idea how to even start training our 4-year-old adult husky, but we can already see the positive changes in his behaviour. I highly recommend working with Juliet; she is kind, knowledgeable, and great to work with. I can’t wait to see what other changes we will see in the future.”

— Vivian Kay, Scarborough

FAQs

How much does training cost?

We offer a one-time fee that includes your initial assessment, training sessions, and lifetime support. Pricing depends on your specific needs. Call 905-853-0195 for a free quote, or book a consultation to discuss your situation.

How quickly will I see results?

Most clients see noticeable improvement during the first session. Long-term habits take consistency, don’t forget! We schedule follow-up appointments to suit your dog’s needs and help you! Your lifetime guarantee means you always have the support you need.

Do you train all breeds and ages?

Yes! We’ve successfully trained puppies to senior dogs and all breeds. No dog is too old or too stubborn to learn.

What if my dog is aggressive? Is training safe?

Aggression is one of our specialties. Each Bark Busters trainer is trained on our unique “Stand Rite No Bite” system, and must pass a test to make sure they know how to safely approach aggressive situations. We use safe, effective communication techniques, and coach the humans on how to address the root cause of aggression to create lasting change.

Why in-home training instead of group classes?

Dogs behave differently at home, where they’re most comfortable and where problems actually occur. In-home training addresses the exact behaviours causing you stress, in the exact setting where they happen.

What does "lifetime support" really mean?

You can call us anytime – weeks, months, or years later – for advice or follow-up sessions. There’s no time limit. We’re here for the life of your dog.

Do I need special equipment like bark collars?

We do not use any form of shock collar. Your trainer will assess and advise you on what your specific dog will need. You do not need to buy anything in advance.

How long are training sessions?

The initial session is typically 2-2.5 hours. This gives us time to assess your dog, teach you effective techniques, and start seeing results immediately. The follow-up sessions are typically an hour.
