Since I was little, I’ve taken responsibility for feeding, walking, bathing, and grooming my pets — including my family’s shih-tzu, who I absolutely adore. I currently live at home with my parents, which gives me a great support system and plenty of flexibility to focus on your pet’s needs. We also have an older family dog, but my parents care for him while I’m with clients… though he definitely gives me a full sniff-down when I get home to see which furry friend I was “cheating” on him with.

I’m newer in the field, but I’m supported by an amazing team at my brokerage, and my flexible schedule allows me to dedicate the time and attention your pet deserves. What sets me apart is my patience, affection, and genuine love for animals. I always work to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for. I treat every animal like my own and pride myself on being reliable, trustworthy, and respectful of your home — leaving it exactly as I found it or even a little better. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know how your pet is doing. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and spoil them with love and attention!

Life-Changing Dog Training--Seriously!…read more I waited a full month before writing this review because I wanted to be sure the changes we saw weren't just a fluke. Now, I can confidently say: Patrick and the Bark Busters program are nothing short of incredible. If you read nothing else--just know this: Patrick is the real deal. From the moment he stepped into our home, everything started to shift. He gave us tools, guidance, and insight that immediately began to transform our household. And here's the critical takeaway: Patrick will show you the way--but you have to do the work. There's no shortcut, no magic wand. The key is consistency. You'll be amazed at what you and your dog can accomplish with daily, intentional effort. If you're struggling--whether your dog is a puppy or a seasoned adult--pick up the phone and call Patrick. We have two Labrador Retrievers: one is 3 years old, the other just 8 months. We thought our older dog was well-behaved because he was calm... until we learned what calm really means. Meanwhile, our puppy was an adorable whirlwind--jumping, barking at the door, and definitely not ready to meet his older sibling. We knew we needed help, and fast. Enter Patrick. In just minutes, he had us "speaking dog." No gimmicks, no harsh discipline--just firm, clear leadership. Our puppy's behavior began to shift before our eyes. By the end of that first session, we were stunned. We felt more confident. The house felt calmer. The dogs were listening. Now, don't get me wrong--this isn't passive training. There's homework, every single day. In fact, every interaction becomes part of the training. But it's worth it. The results speak for themselves. And Patrick is always just a call or text away for support, clarification, or encouragement. One month in, and we have a completely different experience with our dogs. The puppy and the older dog are now peacefully coexisting--playing, lounging, and even responding calmly to the doorbell. We've established boundaries, learned to lead with confidence, and--maybe most surprisingly--realized our older dog wasn't quite the angel we thought. (Thanks, Patrick, for gently pointing that out in your follow-up visit!) Our new mission: bulletproof recall and calm, confident behavior in public. And thanks to Patrick, we're well on our way. If you're thinking about reaching out--stop thinking and just do it. Bark Busters and Patrick have given us tools that truly work, and a better relationship with our dogs. Whatever challenge you're facing, I honestly believe they can help.

Stay away from this dog training company! I contacted Bark Busters and set up an initial visit…read more This cost $300 whether or not you decide to use their service. I was scheduled with Patrick at the end of June. Due to their schedule I had to book it a month later. Well, Patrick came to my home. He is a very nice man, who thought he was the end all to training. Okay, I listened, he started out with the owner has to be the alpha dog. He actually said that dogs do not understand when we speak to them all they understand is "BARK". He claims that's how the converse with other dogs and this how we need to converse with them. I disagreed. I could believe this man and how he became a trainer. Anyone who has a dog knows they understand us. Patrick stated all I have to do was say "BARK at a normal voice and if they do not listen to say "BARK!!!" using a deep, strong, loud voice. I continued to disagree with him. Patrick stated we should part ways. I believe I should get my fee of $300 back. Especially since he would not offer their services. Patrick offered to send me some videos to help me with corrective training. I never received them. Oh by the way, Patrick stated he is the number one dog trainer in the area. He has a website don't remember the site but just put in search engine Patrick Dog Busters. I am amazed that this company is still in business and anyone would use them. Hoping they return will my deposit due to how ridiculous the initial visit, what a joke.

Love the report cards that let us know how he adjusted! Fast forward to 2025 and a promotion for Star Student Training (1 on 1 with Danville, their trainer). Pancho needed that because my husband passed and his anxiety is through the roof. We came two times a week and learned all the skills that my daughter paid $3000 for at a boarding trainer. We chatted and Danville advised on how to handle a number of issues. My loving 8 year old boy has learned so fast - if only I can give him the repetitions he needs. We are taking a break while I address my health issues but meanwhile we connected with the groomer for nails and hope to have him do the 3 hour play sessions. Pancho's excitement when I say we are going to see Danville is over the top with jumping and cries of joy. Linda, Danville, and the staff LOVE dogs as I witnessed in my two hour a week sessions. Thank you, Dog Resort, for making Pancho happy and trained!

They were crazy about food and now they will sit in front of food and wait to eat it when they are told. It's amazing! We then brought them back for a tune up when our son was born. It was awesome knowing they were with people who knew them and loved them. Our dog Charlie ran and jumped in the lake immediately! Happy as can be. A huge shoutout to Derrick! When our son was born 4 weeks early he went out of his way to pick our dogs up when we were stuck at the hospital. He truly loves the dogs and cares about the families. You can tell this is his passion and it shows through his work! Lastly, Anthony has been fantastic to work with throughout too! Due to him and Derrick we will continue bringing our dogs back here when we need boarding knowing they are in the BEST hands.

My husband &I drove to Ft myers from North Port to check out Preppy Pet. From time we walked in, they met our girl, they fell in love with her, and she felt comfortable. Day of cruise we took her there she at first didn't understand why we were leaving her, but she did very well. When we picked her up wk later she was happy to see us. We had pictures of her being silly. They impressed me, the employees do love the dogs & my girl knew that she truly loved her. She is very laid back loves to sunbathe and she had a great time there. Yes we worried because we never leave her take her everywhere with us/she is a service dog/medical alert dog. So she's very intelligent. If she was unhappy I could tell but she was happy. I am picky of where we take her for boarding. I was very impressed by the whole place. She will be going there again dec 2025.

Here's the quick story: we dropped off on a Saturday afternoon and said we'd come back on Sunday at 4 p.m. Their windows to pick up on Sunday are 10:00-10:30 a.m. and 4 p.m.-4:30 p.m. by appointment only. So we agreed to pick up on Sunday at 4 p.m. with the employee on duty and the employee also agreed. We showed up on Sunday at 3:55 p.m. and waited until 4:15 p.m. No one was there and no one answered the door, which was locked. We called twice and left voicemails and we never received a phone call back. There was a sign on the door that said closed due to the Easter holiday. We picked up on Monday morning, the next day, at 7 a.m. and they charged us for the extra day, so total was $82 for the two days. They also charge $10-11 extra if you want "all day play." We asked why the employee said to come back at 4 p.m. to pick up on Sunday if they were going to be closed for the holiday and the response was, "didn't you see the sign?" They also keep all dogs in the back, and they don't allow anyone back there so no transparency which is very suspicious. I would not recommend this company and they've lost our business permanently. We will use another company going forward.
