When I first contacted Katerina I was a little worried about her accent, but as soon as she entered my home, I realized there were no communication problems. My dog Snickers responded to her beautifully!! In no time at all she taught him how to behave properly when guests arrive. We couldn't be happier!

Some people know people. But it takes an even deeper talent to know dogs. And Katerina knows dogs…read more She also knows how to help people who need help with their dogs. She is a true miracle worker (at least in the realm of turning a wild beast into a gentle spirit). If you have a dog that requires training, look no further.

She made sure all of our questions were answered and makes me feel like we aren't alone. Such a blessing!

Would recommend to anyone looking for hands on training that teaches your dog and you how to work together for results. If you take these courses and want good result you do need to be willing to put in the work, this is as much about your consistency as it is about your dogs abilities. Very happy with the outcomes!

As a further waste of my time, I was given one price for training only to be upsold once I was in person. It's great they have these favorable reviews but my experience was completely negative. It's probably worth noting these reviews seem to be rather dated. Perhaps the management changed or ownership changed. The staff needs to take more copious notes when initially speaking with potential clients. In my experience if the manager had a modicum of common sense she would have offered a discount on a class for the inconvenience they caused.
