Working with Holly allowed me to build a deeper relationship with my dog and gain useful knowledge that i still use on my own after the training sessions. The process was done professionally and i always felt safe in every session. My dog and I have more fun in social settings and have a richer life together because of the new skills we’ve learned. From walking next to me on long walks to sitting quietly next to my chair in a crowded outdoor restaurant, I have a new best friend in my dog. I highly recommend this business if you’re looking to advance your relationship and quality of life with your animal.

“Our dog Obi is now 8 years old.  We got him when he was a 3 month old  puppy.  He has boarded with Holly over the years and she has cared for him as if he were her own.  I know he will be fed carefully and that is important as he has food intolerances. I leave careful feeding instructions which she adheres to.  I know he will be given plenty of exercise and plenty of love while there too.  I have complete confidence in her abilities to care for him.  He enjoys his time with her and I am grateful.”
