after I adopted my first rescue puppy. I sent him to a board and train that made things worse. I decided to start learning and training on my own.

After one session with Marissa I would love to say that she Is by far one of the best dog trainers I have met already she gave great advice and worked really well with my puppy she was friendly and understanding she really does treat your dog like her own 10 out of 10. Was very good at giving advice and answering all questions we had.

Marissa is a wonderful trainer! In one week she trained our 10 week old pup to sit and lay down. She also has trained him to walk on a leash. Marissa is a trainer who looks at the whole picture ( family members, environment, and etc). She goes out of her way to help! I highly recommend her!

Marissa has been great with us and especially with our new Pom puppy! We are a bit overwhelmed with this new pup and all that is involved with training. We especially like her positive behavior method of training and also that she is able to come to our home for training. It makes it so much easier for us!

Marissa is so great to work with. I love her energy and she makes everything so easy for me to understand. She takes the time to make sure that I’m doing it correctly. And my dog really likes her too

I have an 8 month old pitbull who is very excited about life, loves to jump on people, has slight food aggression, and leash pulling. Marissa has taught us how to properly train him where we can better communicate with him and understand his body language alot better.
Chico is not the only one learning, so are we as his owners. Patience is the key. My husband and I are really happy and thankful with Marissa's personal training sessions. Chico has gotten alot better. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND MARISSA TO ANYONE STRUGGLING WITH THERE DOGS.
