My lab Cooper loves her and he usually comes back pooped - which helps me with my guilt when I work long days. I've definitely met some dog walkers that didn't make me feel as comfortable as Marina does...clearly she is intelligent, thoughtful and really cares about animals - all of which should be a required to deal with people's pets, but sadly that is not always the case. Over the years I've met several people that you could tell weren't really responsible so when you find someone like Marina that "gets it" is it's like finding gold!!! It's great to know my "baby" is in excellent hands. Cooper and I really appreciate you Marina, Thank you!!!

One is my dogs is also anxious and nervous so it was imperative that we find the right service. After meeting Marina for the initial interview I felt very comfortable that she was the person and service for my dogs. Bruno and Rosie have been hiking with Marina for a few months and the they are so happy and tired when they return. Marina is responsive, responsible, caring and very attentive. She also works with Bruno to try helping his reactivity and offers advice and ideas for me to try at home. Relieved and thrilled to have found A Bark Above Dogventures!

Here's the thing with sending your dog to training. It ONLY WORKS if you continue the work after…read more Having said that - I have nothing but amazing things to say about Doggone Fit and their staff. They are caring and professional. They get to really know your dog and set up a plan according to their behavioral needs. It is not a "one size fits all" training method as different dogs require different experiences with training. We are experienced German Shepherd owners, but we adopted a 9 month old Shepherd who had no previous training and was traumatized by the sudden death of her previous owner. She was nervous and insecure. She needed more than what we could give her. In comes Doggone Fit. Our trainer Richie fell in love with Leia and she him. We did the 2 week board and train and it was worth EVERY penny of the $2K+ we spent. Leia needed to learn some boundaries and build some confidence. She came home loving the tools and structure she learned. **And I will say it again** - YOU NEED to continue with the training. Your dog will come home improved and will have learned the tools, but unless you continue with the protocol your dog will backslide. We have stuck with Doggon Fit's protocol and Leia is thriving. We even boarded her for the first time with Richie and she was in heaven. It was like summer camp for her. Richie sent us daily updates and photos and we felt so good knowing she was having fun and in the hands of someone who cared for her and obviously knew her training needs. Here's a picture of our happy, confident girl now. She has come so incredibly far. If it wasn't for Doggone Fit we probably would have continued to struggle with meeting her specific needs. She loves the work she learned there and we continue with it daily. It gives her the confidence and structure she (and many dogs) need.

We initially worked with Richie for an introduction to training, which was tremendously helpful. We then worked with Joe Langlois, who was excellent with initial training and weekly adventure hikes for our pup. He spent so much time getting to know our pup to make sure he could bond and effectively work with him. He also took a tremendous amount of time to listen and explain everything including tips to help with our pup's anxieties, which have been an invaluable help. We loved having our high energy dog participate in the adventure hikes and seeing all the adorable photos Joe would very actively post after almost every walk. He obviously loves dogs and really cares about giving them exercise, fun, and training. Also he has rescued all of his dogs, a good marker of how much he cares about dogs in general. We hope to continue working with Joe and highly recommend.
