As new owners of a 4-month-old puppy, we needed guidance on how to properly train and handle certain behaviors. Our dog has been especially challenging due to his breed, and while he’s still a work in progress, Stephanie has helped us learn how to communicate with him in a way that truly strengthened our bond as dog parents. She gave us the tools, knowledge, and confidence to do the training ourselves — which made the process far more effective and empowering. Now, at 11 months old, our dog has grown into the best boy, and Stephanie continues to be an incredible source of support whenever we hit a few speed bumps. She has introduced us to new environments like the dog park, helped us feel more comfortable in social situations, and significantly improved his reactivity on walks through leash training and practical techniques. Her approach made the entire process easier, more effective, and genuinely enjoyable. She also brings a wide range of professional certifications and expertise, which gave us a lot of confidence that we were working with someone truly knowledgeable and experienced. I highly recommend Stephanie. Even outside of scheduled training sessions, she allows us to reach out with questions and always provides thoughtful, helpful advice when we need it. She has been an amazing help throughout our journey, and I’m extremely grateful for her continued support.

Our training experience with Stephanie has been awesome. She has helped turn Beau-a very reactive dog prior to training-into a calm, less reactive dog who is now enjoying life. Stephanie is very knowledgeable. She shared her knowledge regarding positive reinforcement, reading a dogs body language, human energy, and how it affects our pets. She did this all the way through the training process. Stephanie always gave homework and followed up where we left off before moving on. Stephanie was very patient and calm throughout our training. Her passion/love for animals definitely shows through her training. I highly recommend Stephanie. We could have never gotten this far with Beau without her help.

In September I learned my elderly father would be needing extra help and I decided to move with my 2 almost 6 month old puppies. I had been working on my own with them but wanted a professional to help train them so they would behave appropriately around older people. Other trainers had told me they needed to be separated and trained away from the house and gradually reintroduced to each other in a boarding program. I did not want to do that but knew training them might be more difficult than training one. Stephanie trained me how to handle the puppies separately and then we occasionally brought them together. They are crate and potty trained and have learned to sit and stay, lay down, come when called, leash manners, drop things, focus on me, sit for their food and more. Stephanie is great at reading dog body language as well as knowing breed characteristics contributing to dog behavior. She taught me so much about how my behavior affects the dogs. It is really important to be consistent and practice everything you are taught with your dog or dogs. I would highly recommend hiring Stephanie to train you and your dogs!

Stephanie, helped my family so much with our Labradoodle. Stephanie came over the same day I reached out to her. My dog was a wild puppy and she helped us work with her. Stephanie was always on time and very calm. She is always a text or a call away. Stephanie helped us with walking the dog, commands, products, whatever we needed. Stephanie is a great trainer and I would highly recommend her.

Stephanie responded promptly to my first message, and we were able to set up a meeting. She is very knowledgeable and experienced in handling and training dogs and was able to help me come to an understanding of what I should be doing better with my pup. Since then, our communication with my animal has grown, and I feel like we better understand each other.
