FirstBarkThis is such a long overdue review but we absolutely adore Erin. We have a little pittie who had trouble regulating her big emotions and Erin was so patient with her and gave us such great learning plans for each session that really helped calm our pup down. Couldn’t recommend Erin enough to everyone and their pups!

Erin is amazing at what she does! You can tell right away how much she cares about dogs, and it really comes through in her training approach. I especially appreciate her focus on training us (not just our dog), so we feel confident and equipped to handle an easily overstimulated adolescent pup. She gave us so many tools and resources to set us up for success, plus incredibly detailed notes after each session that have helped us stay on track. We've seen great progress since working with Erin. Highly recommend!

We’ve been working closely with Erin since November 2022, just a week after bringing Virgil home. He’s our first puppy and, while he’s an absolute love bug, he’s also got a lot of Big Feelings that have translated into some negative behaviours like reactivity. Erin’s been an incredible partner in helping us understand him and how to set him up for success, and in addition to teaching Virgil so many things, has also taught us the best way to manage him and help him have the happiest life. She’s extremely thoughtful and dedicated, and works really hard to adjust her training programs and approach to each dog and their individual quirks. It’s so clear how very much she loves dogs—even, or perhaps especially, the weirdos like Virgil—and wants what is best for them. We trust her completely and are fortunate beyond measure to be able to work with her.
Erin is great at what she does. She brings a positive vibe, patience, and a strong knowledge base to training. I couldn't be happier to have worked with such a reliable, thoughtful and talented trainer. I cannot recommend her enough, you won't be disappointed.
We have benefited so much from Erin's training expertise! She has this warm, calm approach that helps our nervous dog (and nervous dog moms!!!) so much. Can't recommend working with her enough.
