They took care of my 4-month-old puppy while I was in town for work - came to my hotel 2x a day at my choosing to feed him, walk with him, play with him for an hour at a time. Not only were they incredibly loving towards my pup, but they practiced safety measures and truly care! They were extremely punctual and responsive and sent a full detailed report and photos at each visit. They truly went above and beyond for me and my puppy and I can't thank, nor recommend them enough!

She helped us teach our dog to walk calmly right next to us, come reliably when called, and how to correct unwanted behaviors immediately and effectively. Ronit also gave us some really helpful tips on easing our dog's anxiety during car rides, which have been super helpful. She's patient, knowledgeable, and truly understands dog behavior. I'm so glad we worked with her -- highly recommend her training if you're looking for real results with a gentle, clear approach!

Ronit came highly recommended, and I'm not exaggerating when I say she's the reason we're now a happy family. Her cool & collected demeanor immediately put us all at ease. In just one session, she helped us get Arnold to potty outside, taught us basic leash walking, and "place." We were STUNNED at the difference! Ronit gave us the skills & confidence we needed to give Arnold the structure, boundaries, and safety he needed. It's been a joy to see his personality blossom! He's curious, playful, intuitive, and trusting. We're so grateful for Ronit's guidance!

Joan is so good! Oh my goodness. Joan is not the first trainer we have worked with in the Santa…read moreBarbara area but she is DEFINITELY the most intuitive, gifted and well-trained. Unlike others, Joan uses the latest in techniques -- based on research about how dogs' brains really work and what works. What's best is that when you're using the techniques and training from Joan, the training itself IMPROVES the quality of your relationship with your dog (in addition to giving him/her better behavior or manners). We had used another trainer in the SBA area one time and in fact we asked her to leave early because the aversive techniques she was encouraging me to use on my sweet puppy were decreasing his trust in me. It's a lot of work to repair frayed trust. Much better to not lose it. We got HUGE value for our money from our session with Joan this afternoon. She made the training fun and easy -- with lots of repetition so I can remember. Her manner with dogs and people alike is warm and encouraging -- with an emphasis on positive reinforcement. We'll use her again and encourage you to do the same if you're looking for changes in your dog's behavior.

I didn't really think my dog needed training, but when I found the workshops offered by Joan Hunter…read moreMayer, I was intrigued. I admitted that my dog needed some help in these areas, and thought it would be a fun activity with my dog. I was right! Not only did my dog enjoy the class, she learned some new GOOD behaviors! And if I'm truthful, so did I. The way that Joan explains things in class is excellent. You really get what she's trying to convey because she uses metaphors that we humans understand to explain what the dog is thinking and/or doing. She also gives great handouts for us to take away so we can practice at home, which is the key, of course. I'll definitely be looking forward to more of her workshops, and even hire her for some individual training.

Secondly, Sunny is always on time and I don't need to dedicate half of the day to the project. She's a dog lover and it shows with Penny's attitude towards her on arrival. Last but not least, she's an excellent groomer and Penny looks adorable every time. I can highly recommend and encourage you to schedule your next appointment with Sunny!

She listens to how I want my dog groomed, and she leaves my dog looking amazing! She also really loves dogs and is gentle and loving with our little one. This is so important to me, as previous groomers have really frightened Mia. I love that she has Mia on a grooming schedule, which has really helped keep Mia free from matting. She is SO much better than the other mobile grooming service we have used before. We have used her for about 6 months now, and I look forward to years of having her groom Mia.

I have had tremendous problems in simply getting a groomer to respond to my calls and have even been stood up by other groomers even though an appointment was scheduled. That being said, I strongly recommend you give Kirstie a call if you need a quality, responsive and reliable groomer.
