Niki the Dog Trainer, LLC

Niki was great with my 6yr old dog. He had developed a habit of ignoring us. As well as a strong belief that knocking on the door was a signal of invading forces. Niki helped remind him and us how to communicate with each other and how to help us make him feel safe again.She was so great with our schedule as we were moving across the country and scared how he would handle the stress. Come move day our buddy was calm, well behaved and even friendly with our movers. It's been a wonderful change in our home not to worry about how he will behave towards guests and neighbors. He even gets excited, without excessive barking, when we get a visitor.

Niki was so great with training our (at the time) 4 mo old Golden Retriever pup, Ryli. She was even better at training us! Ha! We did the Reverse Board and Train, which was 6hrs/ day. She was patient, explained how to take the training further as he progressed, utilize the tools and foundation in other problems areas, and so much more! Highly recommend Niki if you need someone for your dog! She will customize a plan to for your goals and will listen to the problems you want to focus on. And my dog LOVED seeing her everyday!! Bonus: the training wore Ryli out! He even fell asleep in Niki’s shoes while we were recapping the day at the end

Choosing Niki to train our dog Ralphie was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made! We’ve struggled for months to try to overcome some very challenging reactive behaviors. And then we found Niki. She stayed in our home with him while we were away on our honeymoon, and not only did she work with him diligently and help him make TONS of progress on his reactive behaviors, but she cared for him and loved on him more than we could have hoped for. We felt so comforted to know he was being taken care of so well. She sent us pictures daily and gave us updates on his progress. She took him on walks and to the dog park. She even took him to the pet store and hung out with him in our busy apartment hallway waiting for other dogs to come by to help him work on his reactivity with other dogs. We adore Niki and so does Ralph!
