Dog Careers with Rhonda
Welcome to Dog Careers with Rhonda, the show that helps you turn your passion for dogs into purpose, prosperity, and personal freedom. I’m your host, Rhonda Bilodeau, dog trainer, mentor, and creator of My Dog Camp™, SAFE School for Dogs™, and the Enlightened Dog Trainer Academy™.
This podcast isn’t just about how to train dogs, it’s about why we do what we do, how to build meaningful careers around it, and how to grow into the kind of leader dogs naturally trust and follow. Each week, we’ll explore the emotional, energetic, and business sides of dog training and entrepreneurship, from understanding canine behavior through the lens of safety and energy, to creating a life and career that feels as aligned as it is successful.
So whether you’re dreaming of leaving your 9–5 to start your own dog business, or you’re already deep in the field and ready to elevate your impact, you’re in the right place.

E 12: Starting Your Dream Job Running a Dog Camp with Emma Best
Today on the Divine Feminine Dog Trainer Podcast I interview one of my favorite dog people on the planet, Emma Best. Emma Best is a dog trainer in Salisbury, Vermont and Owner of Mountain Ridge Dog Pack a dog camp servicing Middlebury, VT and surrounding areas. Emma has been an integral part of my businesses helping to edit all my online courses. She's a wealth of information on dogs and building businesses at a young age of 25!
Emma talks about leaving her stable cushy job in accounting after graduating from college to become an entrepreneur in the dog field. She talks about how important the Happy Rescue Dogs and My Dog Camp course was for her to start her career in the dog field.
We also talk about what it's like coming out to dog camp and seeing one in action for the first time, what it was like taking her reactive dog out to dog camp (and how her dog is flourishing now!), how her dog camp exploded when she started it and how she's expanded to helping puppies and dogs that are not ready for dog camp through a day school program. She's also expanded her business with her first employee!
Enjoy this fun episode all about having faith and taking chances on achieving your dream! You can find Emma Best at https://mountainridgedogpack.com/ or https://www.instagram.com/mountainridgedogpack/
