    We’ve only had the initial session but it’s obvious that Todd is a talented trainer. We’re very happy with our choice.

    Sara, our Bark Busters trainer did a fabulous job! She gave us thorough explanations, examples and lots of “hands on” practice. Both dogs (one is 14) are doing well with not barking. The front door and vacuum are the biggest challenges and we are making progress!

    Thank you Tammy for your Google Review! You and Ashley are great dog moms. And now you have the knowledge that you were missing to be great leaders. I can’t wait to come back over and add to the training. Keep up the good work.

    My dog was a huge barking problem when new people came over. In the first lesson Steve showed me some strategies that immediately worked. What is amazing is they don’t involve treats or shock collars. He is patient and I love doing the Home work with my dog. We are on the path to a calmer dog and a happier home.

    Photo of Twiggy & Daisy I can't say enough good things about BarkBusters. Their deep understanding of dog psychology and behavior made an incredible difference in my dog’s temperament in just two weeks. They use excellent tools and techniques to redirect unwanted behaviors effectively, and the results have been very good—my dog is now calmer, happier, and more secure in her place within our "pack."

    James is also incredibly responsive to any questions and his contract provides ongoing support when needed, ensuring long-term success. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and results-driven trainer, I highly recommend them!

    Photo of Moose Our dog Moose is a one year old Golden Retriever who loves to put his nose down to the ground dragging us behind on the leash. He also loves to meet people to the point that he's so overexcited that he's hard to handle. After just a couple sessions with Omar, Moose now heels on the leash and we are learning techniques to help settle him down so everyone involved has a better experience meeting, including Moose. Walking our dog is finally a fun experience! Omar is very patient, communicates clearly, and takes time to answer our many questions. He's available between sessions for questions/advice, provides supplemental training videos, and even just checks in with us. We are so impressed with the quick progress we are making and are excited to keep working with Omar on more skills. Thank you, Omar!!

    Photo of Phoebe In one visit, we have experienced a complete transformation. Thank you, James. I'm not sure what we're going to talk about next visit. Maybe we can figure out what is wrong with the cat? 😂

    Carrie was amazing and explained everything so clearly. We immediately saw a difference in Bootsy's behavior and she was responsive to the training. We are excited to see how our relationship improves with our dog.

    The Dog Trainer Who Changed Our Lives!

    We can’t say enough about Jef and the incredible impact he’s had on our lives. After 1.5 years of trying everything to train our Maltipoo, Luna, we were starting to feel like we’d never figure it out. Then we had one lesson with Jef, and everything changed.

    Luna is now a completely different dog—in the best way possible! Friends and fellow travelers constantly ask, “Where is Luna?” and “Who is this dog?!” because they can’t believe the transformation. Jef’s training methods are clear, effective, and, most importantly, they work.

    What truly sets him apart is his ongoing support. If we’re on the road and encounter a challenging situation, we know we can call him for advice. That level of dedication and commitment to his clients is rare and invaluable, especially for full-time travelers like us.

    Photo of Gracie Deb is very knowledgeable and our family needed this in depth education. Deb's observations gave us a few quick changes that worked along with our mutual understanding why it is best for our dog to be her leader! Deb agreed to support us going forward and the price was worth it to have her help us.

    Photo of Millie I am thrilled to share my wonderful experience with Holly from Bark Busters! Bringing my new rescue dog, Millie, home was exciting. Holly's in-home training session has been invaluable in helping Millie adjust and thrive in our home.

    I was particularly impressed with Holly's commitment to positive reinforcement techniques. It was important to me that Millie's training be gentle, encouraging, and focused on building a positive relationship based on trust. Holly's approach aligned perfectly with my values.

    Millie has made impressive strides with recall after one session, thanks to Holly's expert guidance. Additionally, the potty training tips Holly shared were so helpful! What impressed me most was Holly's vast knowledge and ability to demonstrate a real transformation in Millie's behavior after just one session. It was truly remarkable to witness.

    Holly didn't just train Millie; she also equipped me with the knowledge and tools to communicate effectively with my dog. I now feel confident in my ability to continue reinforcing positive behaviors and addressing any challenges that may arise. If you're looking for a compassionate, knowledgeable, and effective dog trainer, I highly recommend Holly from Bark Busters.

I’m so glad that the approach we use aligned with your values and that you feel confident in continuing her progress. Millie is such a sweet dog, and it’s been a pleasure working with both of you.

    Seeing her transformation in just one session is a testament to the amazing bond you two share, and I'm excited to see what the future holds as you continue to build trust and strengthen your relationship. Thank you again for recommending me, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever need more guidance. You’re doing great!
