Elizabeth understands the dog (and human!) mind and gives practical exercises, equipment, treats and tips on how to improve communication between dog and human in a clear, concise way. In the months that we worked with Elizabeth, and practiced her recommendations, we saw vast improvements in our dog's behavior in public and at home.

We very quickly saw an improvement. Our stress levels came down, and we have been able to implement her techniques with great success.

I was shocked. I loved how she sent me updates, photos, and videos everyday when I was out of town.

I heard about Cara through a friend who has a nervous, reactive pup. I'd seen such an improvement…read morein him, so I thought it'd be worth a try with my own anxious tiny one. The first time Cara took my dog on a hike, she could hardly get in the car with all of her barking and snarling at the other dogs. Now she never barks at all and is so comfortable with all the other pups in the pack. I've noticed that my walks with my dog are better, too. She is far less obsessed with other dogs we see, she doesn't need to be coaxed with treats, she's just way more balanced and confident. I know that having a dog--particularly a tiny anxious one--is constant work, but Cara has made it so much easier. My dog loves going on her her hikes and is totally obsessed with Cara. So glad we found her! Highly recommended!

I love getting to ask them what they did with their friends today and reading the note Jenn always leaves when I get home!! Other awesome things about Jenn include: really open communication (for example changes to your dogs routine), flexible, and most importantly - she really, really cares about our friends and family in fur pants.

She came over prior to the start of the scheduled potty breaks and she was very generous in the amount of time she spent here so my dog could have the opportunity to check her out and feel more comfortable with a stranger in his home. I admit that I am a bit anxious about my dog and she did everything she could to help allay any concerns I might have about how he would respond to her. Her knowledge of dog behavior made her a clear choice when I was considering how to get his needs met while hubby was away on a business trip (usually works from home). And she made great progress with gaining my dog's trust during the 4 days she helped us out.
