how do I teach my neighbors dog to not bark when she's not home?
She’s a sweet dog and I can go over to her from time to time but I don’t want her to think I’ll come over every time she barks.
No bark collars of course.

Go out and let her see you. Walk towards her and when she starts to bark at you turn and walk away. When she stops turn and walk towards her. And keep on repeating until she gets the idea.

Most often, barking results from boredom, fear, or frustration. You should be able to identify what’s causing the barking and work from there.

It isn’t really up to you, it’s your neighbors dog. If you could teach her then anyone could hence negating the purpose of having a dog. Her owners need to work on this matter.
You can try to yell no to her but I doubt hat will work.
What you might want to try is to talk to her; when you pass her just yell hi (her name), maybe after a while of that she will get the hint.

Give her something to keep herself occupied.

JBroden has the cause, but the solution is up to your neighbor and not you. It all depends on why she is barking and you walking over to her will simply train her to stop when you approach .. and maybe that is what she wants .. attention and company. And maybe she is just one of those that barks. Let your neighbor know it is a problem they have to correct.
