BARK BUSTERS IN HOME DOG TRAINING REVIEWS
Rob is great with dogs. We have only had one session with him so far and have already noticed better behaviour with our puppy from the 3 hour session we had. If I were to recommend a trainer for a good deal it would be Rob from Bark Busters.
Honestly quite shocked at how effective the training is. With even a limited number of sessions, we made significant progress. Rob provides the tools, but the pet owner definitely needs to reinforce for greater success.
Rob is amazing! My husband and I learned so much on the first day of training. Plus, I could already see improvements with my dog, Skippy. I know it’s just the start, and it requires a lot of practice and patience, but I’m excited to see the best dog Skippy can be. Can’t wait for the next training session! Thank you for making us understand, sharing and teaching us how to be better pawrents.

CATHIE’S CANINE CONNECTION REVIEWS
This is a wonderful local community dog/human training centre. Cathie has decades of experience and tonnes of different opportunities available to socialize your dog and learn the skills you need to raise ‘em. Cathie’s approach follows the latest science and research which is what we wanted. I know we are on the right track with her, and with the other puppy friends we are making at her classes! I am so thankful to be able to train and socialize our pup here. Very happy to support this little local business and I hope others will do so too.
We attended puppy socialization sessions, puppy training and teen training with Cathie. Thanks to Cathie’s classes our pup has learned to read other dog’s cues and have good behaviours and correct some bad ones! Exposing him early to other puppies in a safe environment was critical for his development and we are super grateful for that. The best part was the amount of learnings that us, as new puppy parents took with us. We are starting to understand and read our puppy’s behaviour and provide him with what he needs based on all the classes we attended. We HIGHLY recommend Cathie, she is not only an expert but does it with genuine care and love. Five stars all around, best money spent in our pup by far!
She’s amazing! She helped me when I needed the most with my dog. I just had a baby and needed to teach my sweet dog to respect her boundaries, he never tried anything, but I was so afraid, hormones all over the place and Cathie came over, showed us how to train him and my baby’s relationship with my dog is amazing now and my dog is much more well behaved (he wanted to jump on people to play, but being a big boy, it can be a problem). Thank you Cathie! Recommend you to anyone, please just hire her and be happy.
I have attended multiple puppy play and learn sessions with Cathy. I found her to be very knowledgeable and I learned a lot from the interactions we have had. I was unsure on whether I could bring my six year old son and she welcomed him with open arms and gave him a book and coloring pages. I was grateful she could make him a part of our puppy socialization. My puppy absolutely loved coming to those classes and I look forward to working more with her in the teen manners course. I highly recommend trying puppy play and learn. - Joanna B

MINDFUL MUTTS REVIEWS
“We are so grateful to the staff at mindful Mutts for helping us through these first few puppy months. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to any of our friends, family or neighbors. We are so happy with the classes and the daycare that they provide. Luna has done so well with her socialization and learning and she has made new friends. we feel extremely comfortable leaving her in their care. She is one happy puppy which keeps the rest of us happy!” Xx Luna and family
My partner and I feel so lucky to be clients of Mindful Mutts - they are our #1 choice for in-home pet care whenever we go on vacation! Despite having an anxious and reactive dog (and being an anxious dog mom!), we never hesitate to leave our furbabies and our home in the care of Mindful Mutts staff. We feel completely at ease, even when we are miles away, knowing they are in the best care and that the staff care for them as much as we do. I don't know what we would do without Mindful Mutts!!
So appreciate Stefania to show me some much needed basic training for my two high energy Boarder Collie pups! I really liked how she was so calm around them and used positive behavior training. Amazing watching her work .. and then trying what she had shown me at home with the pups - it's working! Thank you!!
