Melissa changed my world. She came to my training aid swiftly, assessed and jumped right in giving quick training tips that resulted in immediate results. Melissa was available via text and was also willing to come as much as I wanted or needed. So very grateful for her!

I met Melissa today to discuss walking my 2 dogs. 1 dog was anxious & calmed down after a few minutes. The other dog immediately positively responded to Melissa. I think the dog walking will go well!
