About

I get fast and long lasting results, without breaking the bank! Watching the look on a clients face when their dog has conquered their toughest problem. They just light up and are so filled with pride, it really makes my job so satisfying.

We LOVE Melissa. She is full of life and education with the training of dogs AND their owners 😄. We rescued a 2year old Pit Bull who does not know her own strength, within 20 of our very FIRST session, our 9 year old daughter was loose leash walking her! Absutley blew us away, she is VERY reasonable priced in comparison to most trainers, and full of talent! I have already referred my friends to her! You will NOT be disappointed! Thanks Melissa! See you tomorrow

Melissa is an EXCELLENT dog trainer! We have two small dogs who were pulling on leashes, had leash aggression, and who barked quite often. All of those things are past tense now. Her methods are gentle but effective, and more advanced than the "click and treat" that at a certain point stops working (especially with the barking). We are so grateful that we hired her and have already recommended her to some of our friends. Her pricing was also excellent! Hire her, your home will be much more peaceful!

Melissa is so good with my dog. She is firm but also nurturing. My pup responds to her well. I plan to keep up the training for awhile

Melissa does an excellent job with our dog. She understands him, stays in control and makes sure both we and our dog are ready to move forward with each step during our training sessions.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Be very careful with who you agree to work with! Always make sure that they I'll
