It's not quite what it was hyped up to be when I called. It's supposed to be lifetime and it was very expensive and unfortunately did nothing for my dogs. I met with Michelle 3 times all less than 1 hour and spent well over $2,000. Quite disappointed and wish I would have seen more honest reviews prior. She does push for positive reviews at her first visit. Like someone else mentioned she teaches you to bark and growl at your dogs to get them to listen and follow commands. I think it maybe works during her first visit because they are so confused at first but quickly looses effectiveness.

I was delightfully surprised that my dog's behavior improved immediately after just one session…read morewith Michelle.. BarkBusters works!

She then spent months lying and avoiding, including: - Gave a bad phone number - Dodged emails until I found her business online - Claimed she'd never hit my car despite photo evidence and an eyewitness - Sent someone to try to find my car without my consent or knowledge - Actively dodged a process server from small claims court This was over a small repair that would have been a business write-off, and this is how she handles something that isn't a living creature. Are you really going to give her your pet and hope for the best? If something goes awry will she be truthful? Her track record says she will not. Think hard about it.

5 Stars! I had the…read morepleasure of working with Elisa for 3 in-home training sessions focused on basic obedience and potty training for my two puppies, and I can't recommend her enough! She's not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also an excellent communicator and listener. She took the time to understand my concerns, answered all my questions, and made the entire process feel easy and encouraging. Her calm, positive energy made a huge difference - my puppies responded so well to her techniques, and I felt more confident after each session. On top of being a great trainer, she's just a genuinely kind and wonderful person to work with. If you're looking for someone who truly cares, teaches clearly, and makes training a positive experience for both you and your pups, she's the one!

We had previously completed seven sessions with another trainer at Rob's Dogs and while that experience was fine for basic obedience, it felt like 'training' rather than the deep level behavioral correction we actually needed. Thankfully, because of the Rob's Dogs lifetime guarantee, we were connected with Joel. From the first hour, the difference was night and day. Joel immediately identified the core issues and provided professional, actionable insight on how to actually shift the dogs' behavior, rather than just running through commands. We already feel significantly more confident moving forward and have total trust in the tools and guidance Joel has given us. If you are struggling with behavioral issues that go beyond the basics, I highly recommend working with Joel. We are incredibly optimistic about the progress we'll make in our upcoming sessions.

From their first meeting at the intake, to the 2-week "boot camp", they provided reassurance and updates. The narrated video updates were reassuring and helped bring peace of mind that this was the right decision. So helpful was the 2-hour training period on Graduation Day! It gives me, as her daughter, peace of mind knowing that my mom can now safely bike ride with him, not seeing him jump up on her, and it is much more fun to visit without finding something of mine chewed! If you are contemplating investing in Rob's Dogs for training, do it!! Nathan, thank you for being fantastic with Coal and my mom!

Some call me a "Crazy Cat Mom." Others just use the "Crazy Cat Lady" title. Long story short,…read morewhen I go out of town I need someone who I trust 100% with my little ones. I also love my home and my privacy so when looking for a person to care for my fur babies my standards skyrocket very quickly because it also means I need to trust this person/company with my home. Yes, it is to a point where I should probably dial it back or seek professional help but I don't care. My cats rock and I love them and I have faith that there are good people/companies out there who can get the job done right. This is where Carrie Pawpins comes in. I met Carrie because we both come from a profession in the animal world. I immediately connected with her and could tell this was a girl who didn't mess around. I worked with her on a professional level for a while and she was one of the people I went to when looking for a cat sitter. I had no idea that she provided this service I simply was asking because I valued her professional opinion. I was SO EXCITED when I found out it would be her taking point in caring for my furries! I have since used Carrie Pawpins on multiple occasions. I can share that she along with her fabulous staff are AWESOME!! I can leave for vacation without a single worry. I also get wonderful pictures and updates on how my little ones are doing while I am away. I would HIGHLY recommend Carrie Pawpins and her entire staff to care for any pet out there!

I called about dog bootcamp for my dog that has major aggression and separation anxiety. The…read moretrainer said every dog is different and with issues like this they would have to come evaluate him first for $250. I get that, but I just asked what the range would be so I could know what I would be facing in the future and not waste time if I couldn't afford it. I was told it was going to cost anywhere from $3000-$16000. I understood it was going to be expensive but that is way out of the price range I am able to budget. I then said I could only spend up to $2000 on it , being 24 and just recently getting a new job. The trainer told me I was going to "flush the $2000 down the drain" and that Champ would most likely not get better. He then was going to refer me to someone else and then said "you might need to REHOME" the dog. I was like "WHAT?!". I couldn't believe he told me to basically get rid of my dog because I wasn't planning on using his services. I said that the conversation was over and that was that. It was truly unprofessional and feel like I was treated horribly. In scheduling my phone call the man that was taking my name and number down was also very abrasive in the way he was speaking to me. I also looked on their website- they now have something called "Hall of Shame" that plans to humiliate dissatisfied customers who went on websites and told about their experience. To me, this is low for any business to do. I am big on constructive criticism and instead of bashing people, wouldn't it be easier to work things out with them?! This was my experience and I am taking my business elsewhere.
