Testimonials

“Melissa did an excellent job addressing some anxiety issues with my mom’s dog. The dog is very attached to my mom and she had trouble leaving the house. Melissa helped by teaching techniques to help ease the dog’s anxiety, calming him down and making it easier for my mom to leave the house. We are very thankful for her help and would recommend her services.”

“From the moment we connected with Helping Paw, and especially with Melissa, the owner, we knew we had found something truly special for our furry family member. This isn’t just an animal obedience business; it’s a place where patience, understanding, and a genuine love for animals shine through in every interaction.”

“Three appointments scheduled. First one Melissa was over a half hour late. Second one was a no show. Melissa is very knowledgeable in her field. But she lacks in time management. Always ready with excuses and reasons why she’s late or just doesn’t show up. Very, very unreliable.”
