Molly Taylor, CNWI  (she/her) is passionate about sharing the joy, enrichment, and deep connection that Fun Nose Work offers to dogs and the people who love them. What began as an activity for her dogs quickly became a meaningful journey for her as well—one that has deepened her connection with them and continues to reveal just how incredible they truly are.

Molly trains and takes classes with her rescue pups, Pig! and Strudel, and her foster pups get to join the fun, too. Continuing education is an important part of her path as a student, competitor, and instructor, and she regularly attends classes, workshops, camps, and trials.

She believes nose work gives us a rare window into every dog’s brilliance and individuality. By tapping into a dog’s natural superpower, the activity supports curiosity, growth, and confidence across dogs of all experience levels. Rescue dogs hold a special place in Molly’s heart, and she is committed to creating a welcoming space where all dogs can discover what they’re capable of.

Beyond nose work, Molly is a dog walker, cat carer, critter wrangler, and urban farmer in Northeast Los Angeles, and a long-time volunteer with Pasadena Humane. She brings warmth, curiosity, and intention to her teaching and can’t wait to meet you and your dogs and support you on your nose work journey.

“Every dog has a superpower, and I love helping them—and their humans—discover it. I can’t wait to meet you and your dog and explore the joys of nose work together!” – Molly
