Kayla from Bark Busters came to our home to help us train our new puppy Bentley. She was great, we worked on some skills at our home, then went to the park to see how he would interact with other dogs.She gave us simple commands to use with Bentley and they worked. Recently I called Kayla to come back out and help us with getting Bentley back on track. Again Kayla’s knowledge and skills were spot on. Bentley responded immediately to the commands. I would highly recommend Kayla at Bark Busters.

We absolutely LOVE Andrea and are so thankful we found her! After moving across the country with our new puppy, Ralph, we struggled to get him back on track with potty training. I called several trainers, but none felt right—some didn’t offer in-home visits, others wanted to send him away for weeks, and many made me feel like I had already failed as a dog owner.
PermalinkThen I spoke with Andrea, and everything changed. She was kind, knowledgeable, and immediately offered helpful tips without hesitation. It was clear she genuinely cares and knows her stuff. Before we even met her in person, my boyfriend and I knew we wanted to work with her.
She’s experienced, funny, compassionate, and just amazing to be around. We’re so excited to keep working with her and help Ralph grow into the well-mannered angel we know he can be!

Johnny has been working with our family for a little over a month and our Yuki has been progressing so quickly. Johnny is a fantastic teacher and will throughly explain the why, how, and when which is great help since I have zero knowledge on dog training. He is always available to answer my questions via text or phone. A month ago I used to see dogs off leash and they would recall their dog and they would come right back. I honestly didn't think that was possible for our little guy because he's so young but we've been able to recall him at the park today after working with Johnny yesterday. Its amazing and so fufilling to see my dog accomplish so much in such a short time. If you're looking for knowledgeable, patient, and kind and really an overall great guy. I highly recommend Johnny and fyi I did a whole lot of research before picking Bark Buster. I asked to speak to Johnny before committing to make sure he was the right fit for our family. He has been the best investment and I look forward to our sessions as Yuki grows into adulthood with the aspirations to become a therapy dog.

Jef has been amazing. I am seeing such a big change in Silence! I am able to use my front door! Barking is getting under control and we are working on our walking confidence and behavior. Jeff's technique with Silence does not use any harsh treatments or punishments. He has simply taught me to communicate I want an unwanted behavior to stop. I can't wait to see the continued improvement and both of us become confident enough to walk the entire neighborhood.
PermalinkThank you for the kind words! Silence is such a good dog and you did a great job of showing him the leadership he needed.
thanks
Jef

Hi Sharon - it’s Nettie. First I want to thank you sincerely for your time and talent yesterday in helping me with Harlee. Your patience and wisdom was amazing and much appreciated. Even when you think you’re an experienced dog owner you meet a pooch with special needs and you helped us get through to him in a kind and meaningful way to overcome his fears. Also - BTW we made it upstairs and downstairs last evening/ morning and we both had the best night of sleep in months. Thank you again from Harlee and me

One Month Later—Still Blown Away
PermalinkI wanted to wait a full month before writing this because I didn’t want to get too excited too fast… but I can say now, without a doubt: Patrick and Bark Busters are absolutely incredible.
If you don’t read any further, just know this—Patrick is the real deal. His guidance and the Bark Busters method made a noticeable difference in our home right away. But—and this is important—you have to do the work. There’s no shortcut. It takes consistency, every day, every moment. But if you’re committed, the results are real.
We have two Labs—one’s 3 years old and the other was 8 months when we reached out for help. We thought the older one was well-behaved because he was “calm,” but in hindsight… maybe not so much. Meanwhile, the puppy was jumping, barking at the door, overwhelmed by visitors, and hadn’t even been introduced to our older dog yet.
Patrick showed up and within minutes he helped us start “speaking dog.” The transformation with our puppy was almost immediate. He gave us tools to lead with clarity—not by being harsh, but by setting limits and being consistent. By the time Patrick left, the energy in the house was completely different. The dogs were calmer, and we felt more in control.
And yes—there’s homework. Every day. But it’s doable. And Patrick is always just a call or text away if you need help.
A month later, things are better than we could have imagined. The dogs are now introduced, they play together, hang out calmly, and we’ve set real boundaries that make everyday life much more enjoyable. Just this week we even realized our “well-behaved” older dog may have been part of the problem all along—turns out we had some habits to break too. Patrick helped us see that, and now we’re working on recall and public behavior with both dogs.
Bottom line: if you’re struggling at all—whether it’s big issues or just small things that are adding up—call Patrick. The Bark Busters system works, and Patrick really knows what he’s doing. We're so grateful we made the call.
