Heather is the dog whisperer! She is professional and knowledgeable She had our puppy literally eating out of her hand! She had practical and effective strategies for us to employ to encourage desirable behaviors while discouraging those issues that we were trying to eliminate. Highly recommend having a training session with her to address your concerns!

I knew Heather from her previous job where I got to see firsthand how well she interacted with dogs. When I heard she started her own business, I reached out to her when I needed a pet sitter for my 2 dogs. My dogs LOVE her! ❤️❤️ I’ve used her services for in home pet sitting several times and was very happy. I was comfortable leaving my dogs in her care during one of the hottest weeks of the summer! It was nice to enjoy my vacation and not have to worry about them. I especially liked the Instagram posts so I could see how the dogs were doing. She is a professional business owner, returning calls, texts or emails usually same day. All of her policies are clearly outlined on her website and she was very patient with answering all of my many questions!! I will definitely be using Heather again!

Heather, owner of handful of leashes provides absolutely impeccable service. Her ability to connect with her trainees and their humans is unmatched. Heather is an excellent listener and will ease your mind about the dog training process. Our dog Sadie came into our home in late January 2022. Heather was with us from the start, even before we brought Sadie into our home heather helped us to figure out how to make our resident dog comfortable during our transition from a one dog household to a two dog home. Heather was incredibly patient with me and thoughtfully and thoroughly answered all of my questions and eased my anxiety. Once Sadie came home we bought Heathers 4 session training package to help Sadie learn the basics of being a well kept house dog. That package led to 2 more 4 session training packages. Heather spent dozens of hours helping us to train Sadie. Without Heathers common sense approach to good dog behavior Sadie would not be the dog she is today. We have also utilized Heathers boarding offering at her Family farm and we could not be happier with how well our Sadie is treated while at the farm. Heather is a wonderful dog trainer and even better person. I would highly recommend her services if you want your four legged family member to be well trained.

Heather was such a huge help for my dog and I. She was able to help us with some basic skills as well as introduce us to off leash freedom. I get told all the time that my dog is so well trained and I owe it all to Heather!

We had a great experience with private dog training sessions with Heather. We have a newborn baby and needed to redefine our relationship with our dog Ruby so she would listen better around our baby. Heather was patient and listened to our needs. She also explained why she was teaching us and ruby certain skills and commands. Since completing training I have had many family members comment on how better behaved Ruby is! She has also been so much better behaved around the baby! I would definitely recommend Heather/handful of leashes for dog training!
