Amanda is an excellent trainer. She really helps you understand why your dog may be behaving the way they are and helps you with solutions that are achievable and effective to resolve your dogs behavioral problems. You’ll see results at your first lesson. If you’re looking for help with behavioral issues with your dog Amanda and Bark Busters can help. I highly recommend. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I can’t say enough good things about my experience! From the very start, both Tiffany and Amanda were incredibly responsive and understanding. Tiffany took the time to answer every one of my questions and concerns over email and phone before our first session, which really put me at ease.
PermalinkI came into our first session pretty anxious since my dog struggles with fear aggression, and I was worried about everyone’s safety. Amanda immediately made me feel comfortable and confident that we were in good hands. She addressed all of my concerns with patience and professionalism, adapting her training approach to fit my dog’s specific needs and behavior.
For the first time in a long while, I feel genuine relief and hope that helping and managing my dog’s behavior is possible. I can’t wait to keep working with Amanda and continue building on the awesome progress we’ve already made!

We’re expecting our first baby and reached out to Amanda because our 7-year-old black lab mix had started showing some protective behavior toward me. I was worried about how he’d handle all the changes that come with bringing a new baby home, and I wanted to make sure we set everyone up for success and not have our dog become a source of stress.
PermalinkWe are amazed at how much progress he’s made already! Amanda is awesome at helping us think through different situations that will arise when the baby comes and proactively address them.
One of our other goals was to have him crate trained by Thanksgiving (a two-month window) so we could host guests without worrying about him barking or him being in everyone’s space. To our surprise, literally after the first session, he already has the skills, and I feel confident he’ll meet that goal!
I really appreciate the practical tools and knowledge Amanda shares to help us reestablish calm, confident leadership and create a peaceful home environment. We’re so excited to keep working with her, and I already feel so much more at ease about bringing our baby home, knowing our dog is learning to respect boundaries and can just be a relaxed, happy dog.

Bark Busters’ in home training has been tremendously effective in helping us manage our seven year old dog’s separation anxiety. We now understand the reasons for Sophie’s barking, and can better manage and anticipate situations that trigger her fear. Natalie is extremely personable and professional, and she has been spot-on in identifying problem issues with our Cavachon.
PermalinkShe is firm and direct, yet compassionate and warm. We are so grateful for how Natalie has helped us have Sophie greet people at the door, and greet other dogs on our walks. Reintroducing the crate also did a lot to help Sophie settle into her own space of comfort.
We recommend Bark Busters without reservation, and wish we had known enough to seek their help much sooner!

Informative, Explantions provided were very helpful, time to practice training was great. Maggies attitude was wonderful & my dog responded accordingly! His love and concern for animals is obvious.

We had such a wonderful experience with Bark Busters and our trainer, Jared! As first-time dog owners, we were feeling overwhelmed and unsure about how to effectively communicate with our pup. Jared completely changed that. He taught us how to understand and work with our dog in a way that felt natural and frustration-free.
PermalinkJared was always punctual, professional, and incredibly easy to communicate with. He made sure all our questions were answered--no matter how small--and took the time to explain things clearly and patiently. It's so obvious how much he genuinely cares, not just about the dogs, but about their humans too.
If you're a new dog owner or just looking for a trainer who truly gets it, we can't recommend Jared and Bark Busters enough. He's kind, hardworking, and a total lifesaver. Thank you, Jared!

We are so happy with Bark Busters and especially our trainer Kayla! She has been so great. Full of information and techniques and very encouraging to both my husband and I and our dog. We have a Bernese who definitely struggled with certain behaviors and after just a couple of weeks we are already seeing an improvement in him. We couldn’t believe it!! Kayla is wonderful, so knowledgeable and supportive. I highly recommend!!

Sharon was truly a dog whisperer. She gave clear instructions to my elderly parent and the puppy has responded beautifully! After just one visit, we had so much more control even though he is a medium/large dog. Less pulling, jumping up on people, counter, surfing, and attention demanding. Then, when we needed some reminders and reinforcement, Sharon responded promptly and came right back to fill in the blanks that we had forgotten. I would highly recommend Sharon and Bark Busters!

I wish we had found Sharon when Thor was a puppy! We have a 6-year-old Australian Cattle Dog named Thor and he lives up to all the classic traits of a Heeler. He was constantly alert and on edge. He is triggered by movement. We had issues with him being reactive, chasing cars and barking at other dogs. We tried a “treat” based trainer, and while he learned a lot of tricks, it did not solve our dog's behavioral issues. Now I have ditched the treat bag and am relating to him on an instinctual level. It has made such a significant difference. He is so much calmer and even more affectionate. Sharon has taught us great behavioral techniques. She has been available anytime we needed more reinforcement and real settings with real dogs.

I can’t say enough good things about Erin Miller at Bark Busters! My Rottweiler, Cerberus, was a handful — lunging, nipping, reactive, and basically running the house. I was at my wits’ end before working with Erin. From the very first session, she helped me understand why Cerberus was acting out and gave me clear, practical tools to change his behavior. The transformation has been incredible! He’s now calm, responsive, and respectful — a totally different dog. Erin’s calm, confident approach made all the difference, and she genuinely cares about both the dog and the owner. I finally feel in control and connected with my dog in a way I never thought possible. If you’re struggling with your pup’s behavior, don’t hesitate — Erin is the real deal!
