Ali is super nice and truly a pleasure to work with on potty training my sweet fur baby! I love that she listened to every question I had and gave great feedback with thoughtful responses that were very specific to my situation! She definitely took her time, and it was clearly evident that she just wanted to help. AND she provides realistic advice and expectations. We eventually ended our meeting with a clear, concise plan to follow moving forward, and it certainly helps that she’s made herself available for follow-up questions! I would recommend Ali to anyone who needs help with dog training— I can tell she has taken the time to understand the way our dogs are perceiving the world, and this makes for an excellent trainer! Thank you again, Ali!

Ali was incredibly helpful with my dog’s unique problems. He was having issues settling and maintaining consistent boundaries and for a GSD that is HARD. Ali took the time to really understand my issues and gave me great advice on the problem and the source of the problem. I now feel like I’m on the right track with my dog and don’t feel so defeated anymore! Also I appreciate Ali checking in on me a few days later to make sure that progress was being made. I would recommend her to anyone!

Ali answered our plea for help to get our dog Vader (and us) up to speed on crate training plus a couple of other issues related to our dogs separation anxiety and overall obedience.
Ali was extremely helpful and gave us plenty of quality feedback — both on what we’ve done right with Vader thus far (keep doing that!) and still need to work on to get him to be a great addition to our family.
I’m looking forward to using what we’ve learned and will happily be keeping Ali in mind for any other dog obedience and general well-being assistance.
Thank you!!
