My dog Willow and I had a great experience working with Lise. She was knowledgeable and professional. I was a little hesitant picking a trainer from a Google search, but after meeting with Lise and hearing her plan I was really excited about training. The skills I learned gave me tools to work with Willow in her challenging behaviors. Willow and I have a great relationship because of Lise’s work with us. Having Lise come to the house gave us one on one time to address Willow’s needs. Lise was always on time, prepared and ready to go. I highly recommend Lise!

Our pup was jumping on people like crazy as a result of being a COVID puppy. Lisa helped us tremendously by teaching us how to train her and we have seen a great improvement! I'd say the lessons made her mature a little and gave her more structure. Definitely would recommend Lisa to anyone looking to teach their dog good manners.

Lise is great! She’s easy to learn from and my dog loves her, but most importantly the methods work.

If you have a new puppy the best thing you can do for yourself and your pup is call Lise! Her Puppy ABCs program was perfect and set us up for success with Daisy, our little Cavachon. Lise doesn't just train your pup but helps you understand how a dog thinks and why certain techniques work. This helped us learn how to interact with Daisy beyond the basic training. Lise was so patient and supportive for us first time puppy parents. She provided us with positive re-enforcement and training documents which we refer to over and over. Lise thank you for all your help in giving our family a great start with Daisy .

I can't say enough good things about working with Lise. She is infinitely patient AND is like the Pied Piper for our highly distractible puppy -- he could barely take his eyes off her when she was in the room! Our training took place during Covid and Lise accommodated us (two adults and one teen) with all the safeguards necessary to do in-person training. All of us humans learned a TON and are on our way to raising a well-mannered dog.
