My soon to be one year old shiz poo refused to walk with me or wanted to wander every where. She was walking beside me before an hour of training. Alisa answered all if our questions succinctly and gave many practical suggestions. We had never gotten Poppy to walk down steps which meant we would have to carry her down our many house steps. In one minute Alisa had her walking down the steps. She is God sent. The best trainerI have ever seen. It is worth every penny of ur money if u have concerns about ur dog or puppy.

I have a lab mix that developed aggressive behaviors on the leash, specifically towards other dogs. We have tried using a pinch collar, a shock collar, and the advice of another dog trainer that advised us to practice dominance training (leaving her in the kennel often & using heel on the leash). None of these options worked long term, she always found a way around it to continue her reactivity. We went to the Dog Whisperette for different advice to train our dog, and we really enjoy her cognitive-focused approach. It has been a few weeks since we saw the Dog Whisperette, and the effectiveness of this training has not worn off like the others did. The Dog Whisperette provides you with all of the knowledge you need to be successful in training your dog. It is up to you to be consistent with the training to see results, but it is a slow process to break the bad habits. In my opinion, this training is definitely worth the more expensive one-time fee. Highly recommend using the Dog Whisperette!

Very knowledgable and was able to help ME learn to take control of my dog's energy. She is thorough and pleasant to work with. Training techniques so helpful. She also stays in touch, so you don't feel abandoned if you have any concerns going forward.

Words do not describe how grateful I am to Alisa. My husband and I adopted two of the most adorable dogs from the SPCA. Cute as they are they were unruly destructive wild animals. When I told my husband that I had hired the Dog whisperererette and she was going to train the dogs in a day… he said she hasn’t met our dogs 🤣. I have to admit I was a skeptic myself but within the first five minutes of meeting the dogs they had she had their undivided attention and after her spending the afternoon with us they were doing exactly what they were told not just buy her but by us as well. I’m not sure how she trained better them or us. I gave her five stars because she earned them. We will forever be grateful for what she was able to accomplish in a day. Do I think she’s worth the money? I personally think she’s worth 10 times that much… Thank God she doesn’t chargeThat much
