I just finished my six sessions with Eileen this past week, and I couldn’t be happier. She did more in 6 weeks than I was able to do in over a year. My dog made significant progress and I can’t wait to see what else she will accomplish. I will be signing up for group classes in the fall.

I absolutely LOVE Eileen and her ability to connect with and understand my dog on a level no other trainer could. My staffy pit has been with two trainers in the past who primarily focused on shock collar training. This absolutely broke my heart seeing how my dog would shut down every time we "trained" him. With previous training, I had 0 hope that my dog would release his fear and anxiety. After meeting Eileen, I have felt so comfortable and confident in taking my dog on walks and providing a relaxing environment for him. I am so happy to see that my dog can truly relax and enjoy his days without experiencing high levels of stress or anxiety. I would recommend Eileen's services to ANY dog owner seeking training and will 1000% return with future pups!

I recently started working with Eileen and am extremely impressed. My husband and I are senior citizens with a wonderful 2 1/2 year old Pyredoodle. Being a giant breed, it is imperative that he be well trained. The first thing that impressed me about Eileen was her understanding of his unique needs based on his breed. I've found most trainers seem to treat all dogs the same. Eileen understands how to work with the innate traits of each dog based on its genetics. In just our first zoom session, we were able to get him to LEAVE IT. I'd worked for over 2 years on the problem of his grabbing and eating everything he could find on our walks. This was a safety issue! I couldn't believe the progress! What a relief!! We are currently working on DROP IT and slowly making progress with that issue. We recently met at a local park to begin working on some leash aggression toward other dogs. It was great to meet her in person. She noticed everything about his body language and gave great suggestions about getting him more comfortable with other dogs. Her approach seems very safe and effective. I am thrilled and feel we've made more progress in 3 sessions than we did in numerous sessions with another trainer over the last 2 years. Her approach is very gentle and highly effective!

Our 7mo old puppy (Gumbo) started resource guarding seemingly out of nowhere. We bought books, did research, watched videos, but still couldn’t figure out exactly what was behind his behavior. We contacted Eileen, and it was the best decision we have made for our puppy so far. Eileen is exceptionally perceptive, and was able to identify what was triggering Gumbo’s anxiety in specific scenarios that we would have never picked up on by ourselves. She is a great communicator, and explains things very clearly. Gumbo’s behavior has completely turned around. After working with her, we feel armed with all the knowledge and tools we need to help our dog excel. We couldn’t be happier with her as his trainer.
With Eileen’s expertise and training over the last few months, we’ve seen our 1.5 year old puppy go from very wary of meeting people and acting out, to being able to wag her tail and approach the world in a much more calm and optimistic way.

With Eileen’s expertise and training over the last few months, we’ve seen our 1.5 year old puppy go from very wary of meeting people and acting out, to being able to wag her tail and approach the world in a much more calm and optimistic way. Her transformation makes us (and her) so happy, and we look forward to seeing progress at each session! We cannot recommend Eileen enough, just be ready to put in plenty of time and work with your pup and the results will come.
