My dog had a great time staying with Tonya. I loved the cute picture updates she sent me. He will definitely stay with her again when I am out of town and unable to take him.

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Are e- collars used during the training? And do they train to be service animals?
I don't know. I only went there to inquire about training and pricing.

E-collars are used for some of the programs. We do not train service dogs but we can get your dog started in the right direction.

Do you train service dogs?
Our main training focus is family dogs. I would recommend contacting someone with service dog experience before even picking out a dog for service dog work. Most dogs do not qualify for that type of work. A lot of people want to make their family pets service dogs and in most cases it is not a good fit. If you have a family dog that you would like to be more behaved so you can spend more time with them and do more with them that would be right up our alley. We love to help people do more with their pets.

I was in desperate need to have my small rat terrier, Guinness, trained. Not just the basic commands of ‘sit’ ‘down’ etc.. he needed to learn to stay in place, walk well on a leash, not run out the door and TONYA DID ALL OF THIS AND MORE! Tonya exceeded all my expectations of what I was looking for and followed up with me at my house and any time guinness has slipped up, (she also came over and helped train my husky to walk on a leash) she’s available to talk over the phone or assist how she can. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend her! I enjoyed how she treated my pup so well that I actually use her as my dog sitter when I leave town. Incredibly trustworthy and worth EVERY penny!!

We adopted Murphy aka Domino in February 2018 from Animal Ark. He was a perfect fit for our Bailey after a week of foster care we made it permanent. Right after that we realized he was extremely aggressive towards anyone that came to the house.(daycare called him a social butterfly) I called Animal Ark to see about returning him (something ive never considered) they suggested i contact Tonya. Long story short Tonya recognized the issues, worked with him/us, now Murphy is a wonderful addition to our family.. He still needs a little work when new people come over but we recognize the the posture and know how to correct him..
Tonya did a great job of training my dog, Alice. Alice is now a calm and capable dog. I truly appreciate all of Tonya's help.

Tonya is 100% professional and trustworthy. Our dog, Piper, loved her. We were looking for a dog sitter in Columbus, GA who would go above and beyond for a certain scenario. We were coming in from Columbus, OH for our wedding in Columbus, GA and Piper was our "Flower Dog." We not only needed a place for her to stay, but we also needed someone to drop her off and pick her up at the appropriate times on our wedding day so she could be a part of the ceremony and pictures. Tonya was perfect and it was as smooth as it could be. I highly recommend Tonya.
