FirstBarkWe thought Evelia’s foundation 1 program was great training for both our pooch and us. She was great in explaining how to implement and practice the behaviors we want, and discourage the ones we don’t!

Amazing pet sitting services!!! I was away visiting family for 10 days, Evelia at PAWsitive Approach provided daily care for my senior cat and 2 guinea pigs. While I was away, she sent updates - which is super comforting :) When I came back home, my animals were just as happy and healthy as they were when I left them. My place was also spotless when I got home, which is such a relief! All the cat bowls were clean, trash was emptied, litter box was fresh, and old cat food cans were rinsed and recycled. Evelia is amazing! Thank you!!

We had a private session with Evelia to help us with our newly adopted shelter dog. Evelia listened to our concerns and what we wanted to work on. She guided us through some training and came up with a detailed plan for us to work on at home. Evelia is professional, kind and gentle in her approach with the animals and really listens to her clients needs. I would recommend Pawsitive Approach to my friends and I give them 5 stars!!

I had an initial consultation for my dog that was adopted from a shelter where she lived for 3 years. She made tremendous progress since we brought her home but needed more help with her bladder regulation. Mostly, I had a lot of questions regarding how to get her onto a schedule at night which we definitely needed because she never learned to wait overnight to go out. After the 1 hour consultation, we learned a lot about how to handle specific issues including a new strategy for nigh-time. I am satisfied with what I learned from the experts at Pawsitive Approach! They were very knowledgeable and it was easy to have them come to my home.
We absolutely love Evelia! Our dog Popeye, a 100-lb bundle of energy, was a 2-year-old wild child—jumping on everyone, ignoring commands, and not understanding car safety. He was even petrified to get into a car. But thanks to our amazing dog trainer Evelia, we've learned so much…Read full reviewClose full review
We absolutely love Evelia! Our dog Popeye, a 100-lb bundle of energy, was a 2-year-old wild child—jumping on everyone, ignoring commands, and not understanding car safety. He was even petrified to get into a car. But thanks to our amazing dog trainer Evelia, we've learned so much about how to communicate with him and teach him. Popeye now sits, stays, learning to wait and respect cars and is even getting into our cars now! The progress we've seen is incredible, and it's made such a difference in our family dynamic. Working with PAWsitive Approach was the best decision we made for our family and Popeye!
