Hi! I'm Rhonda Bilodeau,
I'm the creator of the My Dog Camp online course.
My passion for empowering individuals to run their own dog camp businesses stems from my unwavering belief that it’s the most rewarding and empowering path a dog lover can take in this lifetime.
With this conviction, I set out to create a transformative course that not only ignites your journey to hiking, training dogs and Pack Leadership but also focuses on self improvement (because every great business needs a great leader). I was once an under-confident Pack Leader until I learned the industries top secrets. Now, in our course, I ensure you'll avoid the struggles and myths that once hindered my own growth.
My 16+ years of hands-on dog camp and dog training experience (especially in off-leash Pack Leadership) have helped countless dogs and guided hundreds of students through our online courses to become confident Pack Leaders. Before I found this career, I wanted to do something big and help others. Now, I help dog lovers like you, who want to make a big impact in their communities creating a profitable career hiking and training dogs.
I had very little understanding about dogs when I first started my journey (I didn't even have a dog when I started my dog walking business and even got denied by my local doggy daycare!). I felt like I was starting at a deficit but then a few years later I accomplished being an incredible Pack Leader! The system I used then and improve upon each year is in our course! My ultimate joy lies in witnessing the transformation of each student, as they discover their passion and embrace their calling. If I can do it, you can do it! You're in much better hands than I was when I first started because you're in my hands!
As your guide at My Dog Camp, I am thrilled & committed to providing you expert guidance throughout your journey. I can’t wait to empower you to create a life filled with purpose, joy, and success with dogs! You now have someone on your side, rooting for you :)

Are you a dog walker struggling with excelling
and attaining financial freedom?
"I was walking 7-10 dogs a day and started to feel overwhelmed because I needed some help with my dogs. Some of them were picking on other dogs, fights broke out for what I thought was no reason. I could tell some of them were stressed and they were stressing out others. I started taking my personal dogs to local trainers to troubleshoot how to train them to benefit my camp. I found some success but still was struggling until another dog walker in my area suggested your course.
The course is such a low cost to start a business and it helps so much. If I could have used the techniques in the course on day one, I would have saved so much money, stress and so much time in the first few years of building my dog walking business."
- Brie of Expawditions
Are you worried you don't have enough confidence or dog experience?
"The course truly will equip you with the skills that you need. I'm not anything special.
I'm not this like magical dog whisperer. I just took the course and I followed the program. It genuinely is the most positive life change I've ever made!"
- Alexx of Chance's Canine Camp
Are you unsatisfied with your current job and wonder if Dog Camp can be full-time?
"I had just graduated college and was driving an hour one way to go to work at this job. I was making good money, I had full benefits but I lasted 10 months. I was burnt out. I had taken the My Dog Camp course with the idea that I was just going to do it for fun on weekends. I really saw how fun running my own dog camp was, how flexible it could be and the joy it brought my own dog. I also loved seeing how much joy it brought my client's dogs being outside. Being stuck indoors was something I struggled with at my old job, because I was at a desk for eight hours.
I'm full time running camp one year out from the course and I'm full! I have a waitlist of dogs trying to get in! I started off part time and now I have over 30 clients so it's pretty cool to see how you can grow your business!"
- Emma of Mountain Ridge Dog Pack

“If there was one thing I knew I loved in life it was dogs. The My Dog Camp Course was a perfect fit for me; an over-enthusiastic, unorganized person, with little dog experience.
The My Dog Camp course helped me finally start a business where I could be really happy spending my days with dogs and living out my entrepreneurial dreams!"
- Chelsea of Buddy's Buddies Dog Camp

“I am a very passionate person. I just wasn’t passionate about any of the jobs I was in. But I knew I was passionate about dogs and traveling. Not only has My Dog Camp given me the ability to make an impact in my client’s and their dog's lives but I’m able to travel all over the world.

Are you worried about what your friends or family might think about you starting a dog camp?
"I thought about taking the course and my mom thought it was a pyramid scheme. She thinks it's so funny now because she looks at me and how successful my businesses is and I’m like -‘eat your words mom’.
My word of advice is if you're on the fence, just do it! It helps so much with personal dog training and even if you start slow, it gives you the tools to work with your own personal dog. Just being able to have that type of training is so helpful."

Do you need to be able to support your family?
“I have always loved being with dogs and I was at a point in my life where I wanted to transition out of my 9 to 5 shirt and tie job but I needed a way to make enough money to support my family. I had no idea how to manage multiple dogs walking loose at once.
The My Dog Camp course turned out to be a great decision. Not only did I learn how to manage multiple dogs, I also learned how to choose dogs that would be a good fit for the pack walk. The course also taught me how to start my business, what insurance I needed, how to market my new business, how to find customers, how to find property to hike on, and more.
I took the course nearly two years ago and have been working with dogs full-time ever since. Without My Dog Camp, this would not have been possible. Rhonda’s knowledge and her support have been invaluable. If you are thinking about a new career working with dogs, sign up for this program. At the end, you will gain the knowledge and confidence needed to lead your own dog packs!”

Having a camp is amazing, it's like a dream! Sometimes I still feel like I'm in a dream.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does this price compare to other programs?
I don’t know of any other programs that teach the Art of Pack Leadership and show you how to start a business. That's why I created it :) If you resonate with me and what you've read here then you'll resonate with the way I train. Every trainer is different and some focus more on obedience. I focus on obedience plus behavior modification, management, relaxation & mindset techniques for yourself and the dogs. My Shadow Programs used to cost $2k for a week and I still couldn’t teach everything I teach in this course in such great detail! Today, you can only access me here inside the course.
I was originally looking to go somewhere to learn how to do this because I don't learn as well online. Is learning in-person a better option?
It's hard to find someone that teaches this specific art form and really understands behavior modification. I’ve had a lot of mentors in my time and almost none of them are qualified to teach this subject because they don't understand behavior modification. Many work a lot with strict obedience and a lot of suppression. I personally am a hands-on learner too. I thought I couldn't learn well online but the opposite turned out to be true. I learn very well online because it allows me to re-watch and listen to videos - so valuable for my slower processing brain! Learning in-person usually means you only have access to the mentor during that time and only hear things once. In the My Dog Camp course, I put everything I know about running a dog camp into my course (no stone left unturned) and you get access to me and can ask me (and the growing community) questions anytime in the private FB group!
How long do I have access to the Course?
You have lifetime access to the course as long as you are in good standing. You also have access to any future updates.
Can you really start your own Dog Camp business all from the Online Course?
Absolutely! Our proven system has empowered countless dog lovers, even those without prior experience, to achieve success all while doing this from the comfort of their home, online.
Do I receive some sort of certificate?
Yes, when you complete all the quizzes and show you've completed all the videos you will receive a My Dog Camp certificate of completion. You can then show clients this certification if they ask what your experience is working with dogs.
Do I need to upgrade to a larger vehicle if I have a small car?
No. You can start with what you have. As your pack grows and your income increases, you might want to consider a larger vehicle.
Are there additional costs after purchasing the course for starting the business?
Startup costs are minimal. Dog camp is a low-startup, low-overhead business that requires most things you already have! Some of those essentials are; a car, leashes, treats and the things you will need to invest in are in marketing and insurance.
Can I make this a full-time or part-time job?
Absolutely, the flexibility is yours! Whether you want to work part-time or dive into a full-time career, the choice is yours to make. You are your own boss! You decide how many days you work and how quickly you want to grow. Work as little or as much as you’d like!
How long until I’m able to make this a full time career?
Results vary depending on how populated your area is. Most people make My Dog Camp a full time career within 1.5 years!
I already have set up a business. Is the full course necessary?
Our Mastering Pack Leadership System™ is well worth the price of the course. Students who already have businesses are surprised by the advanced business building section that helps them improve client relations, develop more professionalism through professional handouts and contracts, improve upon their websites and business appearance helping them generate thousands more each year!
Will I be able to support my family?
Absolutely! You will see countless testimonials from past graduates making more money than their traditional jobs! Not only can you support your family, but you’ll also have more quality time to spend with them, as you can finish work by 2 pm. Most of our graduates are the primary providers for their families! Incredible!
How fast will I be able to transition from my current job to hiking dogs for a living?
Many people will go from full time at their current job to part time, walking dogs on their off days. They usually make the transition in 3-6 months . This is a great way to change careers because it means you have consistent money coming in!
“I can’t wait to help you start
your exciting new career!”
