Mara was amazing and a joy to work with. Teddy, our three year old corgi is an opinionated soul and really struggled with barking, leash manners, and car anxiety. We did the 3 week homeschool session and Teddy is a completely different dog. She really created a plan that worked for Teddy and us. Teddy now exhibits excellent on leash and off leash manners, is calm/ not barking for attention, and is improving with his anxiousness in the car. We also love that he can stay with her when we go out of town. We can’t thank Mara enough!

Business response

Thank you Sophie! Teddy is truly one of the most enjoyable dogs we've worked with. :-) I'm looking forward to his petsitting / board-and-train stay!
