I’m a first time dog mom and Lise made Puppy ABCs easy and fun. My dog absolutely loved her and we both benefitted from the training. Lise was very patient with us both and let me ask a ton questions, which I greatly appreciated. I would definitely recommend Paws Afoot and I plan on signing up for more classes down the road.

We can't say enough great things about Lise! She was very thorough and so knowledgeable. She made our training sessions fun and easy. Our boy is a rescue and he has a lot of anxiety. She was very patient with him and he enjoyed his time with her. Thank you so much Lise! We now have the tools we need to make sure Jax has a wonderful life ahead of him.

Lise is amazing. We found her on Google, but realized a few of our friends had hired her for their puppy training in the past. Lise was able to come to our house in winter, during COVID, and help us do training outside with masks on in cold temperatures. Ashland has benefited so much from the step by step training tools she provided us with. I would recommend her 100% to anyone adopting or looking to improve their relationship with their existing pet.
I can't stress enough how awesome Lise is. She was so great with our corgi puppy, so patient with us, and provided so many amazing tips for training.

I can't stress enough how awesome Lise is. She was so great with our corgi puppy, so patient with us, and provided so many amazing tips for training. We focused on some training basics that have made our day-to-day lives with our puppy much easier (and fun)! Lise is SO organized and easy to work with. She sends along a digital copy of everything you learn in each session which makes practicing so much easier. We can't wait to book some follow up lessons soon!

Lise is amazing. Winnie, my 15 year old min pin, has separation anxiety to the point I couldn't go anywhere without her screaming endlessly until I returned. Lise has been so attentive and supportive in teaching me how to train Winnie. We did it over video, which worked really well. Separation Anxiety training is a lot of work, but totally worth it. Winnie is still in the process of training, but making excellent progress thanks to Lise. I highly recommend her!
