Carrie was very knowledgeable about the issues I was concerned about as well as the basic commands and behavior of my dog Greta . She was able to communicate with the animal and get positive results. Greta is still having some issues but Carrie was able to train me on how to handle those issues on a daily basis which have gotten much better. We are still working on these but making progress. It was a fun and very helpful experience. She is also inexpensive and well worth every penny.

Carrie has an amazing way with dogs. She has a kind and gentle demeanor but also captures the respect of the pups. Carrie is working privately with my golden retriever puppy and I. My pup is doing so well! Our experience with Carrie has been wonderful!! I recommend her. When you are choosing a dog trainer, please put Carrie at the top of your list. She will make a difference in yours and your pups life together.

Carrie's knowledge & compassion for animals was immediately apparent in the way she handled Riley at our first meeting. My little dog had just run out the front door & down several streets before I was able to catch her - this was 30 mins before Carrie arrived - she immediately began our session by dealing with this issue, knowing I was terrified of Riley running into traffic or being stolen. We have been working on all the training lessons 'homework' Carrie left us with & I can already see positive results. I'm excited to continue our training knowing it will keep Riley safe in the future. This is also training me to be a better parent & will build a stronger bond between us. Thank you Carrie.
