After exhausting our friends & family…read morenetwork, I was at my wit's end about how to best provide some much needed outdoor time for our poor dogs. I found Noah on Yelp at the last minute (Thursday night) and, on the off chance he could fit us into his schedule, contacted him to see whether he could walk our dogs the next day. Noah got back to me fairly quickly, taking the time to answer my inquiry an hour AFTER his posted closing time. (Maybe it was my tone of desperation?) He also allowed me to ramble on, via text, about how great my dogs were for a good 10 minutes. He made the process simple and painless, was clear about pricing and what he would deliver, and provided his services in a laid back but quick and professional manner. I would DEFINITELY recommend him to anyone needing companionship for their pet.

He was always available, flexible, and able to come in extra days when our return home was delayed. More importantly, our three kitties loved him! He took a number of photos of himself cuddling/playing with all three of them- quite an achievement, since our calico baby Samsara does not usually care for strangers. Noah even patiently provided additional recommendations when this was requested of him. We highly and unconditionally recommend him as a pet-sitter; when your dog or cat is in his care, you can travel anxiety-free. Thanks for all you've done, Noah!

Judy, our sitter, sent a text after her first visit on Saturday to reassure me that she got in the house and the cats were good. Whenever I emailed her to check-in, she responded within 5 minutes.

She washed out the empty cans of wet food before placing them in the recycle bin, she brought in the mail, she left extremely detailed notes on every visit. I couldn't be more impressed. We'll definitely be using Judy again and I'll make sure to refer your service to all of my fellow pet owner friends.

We recently adopted a new puppy (Nala) to keep our 3 year old Golden doodle (Augie) company…read more Although the two dogs are siblings from different litters, they didn't immediately take to being together. Unlike Augie, who was always sweet and extremely mellow even as a puppy, Nala bit us in the face, barked, destroyed things in our home and terrorized Augie to the extent that he would run away from her. We weren't sure we could keep her because she was so badly behaved and seemed untrainable. In the span of 3 weeks, David transformed Nala from a challenging puppy into a dream puppy. She obeys all the commands, walks off leash in our wooded neighborhood, sleeps hours later than when she left and most importantly she is able to play well with Augie who now seeks her out and willingly allows her even to sleep in his own bed. David sent dozens of videos so we could watch her while she was in training and learn the language she was learning from David. He kept in contact and was even able to drop her off and meet our other dog for a walk with Nala. Without Massachusetts Dog Training, we would likely have given our wonderful puppy away and never realized what a gem we had. David helped to uncover Nala's true potential and helped us to realize how smart, sweet and special she is. We will be forever grateful for his wisdom, expertise and love for our Nala.

On the very first day with David, he was already playing calmly with other dogs, something I never thought I'd see. David kept me updated every step of the way, sending daily videos that showed my dog's progress, which gave me so much peace of mind. When he came home, he could finally walk on a leash without pulling (a major win for a husky owner!) and he no longer jumps on guests the second they walk in the door. Now, he greets people calmly and listens better than ever. It honestly feels like I have a brand new dog. He is happier, more obedient, and much more social. I'm beyond grateful for David's help and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a professional, compassionate, and highly effective dog trainer. He truly works wonders!
