Literally the best trainer ever! I got my first puppy as in adult in August and my baby boy has been in her puppy class and now beginner class since September. She is phenomenal. Whenever I need help she is a text or phone call away. She really cares about what she does and really want to see pup parents and the pups succeed. She is knowledgeable friendly and an overall wonderful woman! I can not say more about Lisa. If you are having any issues with your pup please reach out to her you will not be disappointed!

Our goal was to help our rescued pup who while a very intelligent girl, she expressed fear and we needed help to not only work WITH Remi but understand her. Although Remi's origins and fears were not fully understood initially, a breakthrough emerged with the expert guidance of Lisa.

Lisa’s 20+ years of expertise with her intuitive ability has help us to understand Remi’s body language and what is being communicated. This was imperative so we could help her feel safe and help her understand what we need from her. All of this with positive reinforcement!! Lisa’s love for animals and the love of her work made working WITH Remi a breeze. It doesn’t have to be hard but it does require our commitment to Remi and we’re up for the task. Thank you Lisa! We are so grateful for you!

We just rescued an Olde English Bully mix and he is smart but mischievous, so we called Lisa for a 1 hour, in-home, training session. She came ready with so many tips, tricks, treats and suggestions. We saw immediate improvements to our pups manners and we felt like we got a wealth of knowledge for the amount we paid. I would suggest having a list of priority items ready to go so that she can help you tackle each of them in the time available. We plan to use the tools she's provided us with and then call her back in a couple weeks for a check-up training session. We certainly will be calling her again. If not for group training, certainly for boarding. She was awesome and our pup loved her.

We would love to recommend Lisa’s puppy training class to anyone and everyone! It has been such a game changer for us as first time puppy parents, and we know our dog has developed the foundations that will set her up for a lifetime of success thanks to the class. She is already doing amazing with leash walking and basic commands now that the course is almost done. Lisa is so knowledgeable and positive - we have learned so much from her and are forever thankful!

My fiancé and I adopted a rescue dog from Save-A-pet. I had a dog (my son) already that I had had for years but the new addition was different and bigger and scared of everything and everyone. Going to Lisa’s class, at first he wouldn’t leave my or my fiancés side. And honestly it was my fiancés first dog of his very own. My fiancé was just as wary of the class as Moose was. We went through the introduction class and came so far we went to the intermediate right away to keep training. By the middle of that Moose willingly went to her and was not afraid of men. I’ve recommended a few others to her class and expertise and they all have been thankful for it.

We adopted our dog at 5 months old and are currently in our second class with Lisa. To say her knowledge on training dogs to their specific needs and learning styles would be an understatement. In the short time we have had our dog he has learned so many commands and his leash walking has improved tremendously. Lisa is super helpful in general pet knowledge as she helped us find near instant solution to our dog getting car sick and anxious in the car. She has given us so much confidence in setting our dog up for a bright future.

Thank-you Lisa for working with me and my rescue JuJu. He's done great in 6 week's. His initial visit eval was an entire hour of non stop barking and terror on his part to now taking your treats with no barking. He's also learned some basic commands and walks have become more pleasant. It's nice to see that he's enjoying life!

Lisa is amazing. She truly saved us from a rough situation. Our puppy injured our older dog and Lisa helped us learn how to understand our dogs, prevent them from fighting, and what to do if they do fight. She taught us to understand their behaviors. She helped us get our high energy, high prey drive puppy to walk nicely on a leash, heel, and focus while passing by distractions such as other dogs. We can even take her on runs with us now. She also helped us get our four year old dog to stop pulling on his leash. We have recommended Lisa to our friends and she has been able to help them as well. I cannot recommend Lisa enough.
