Testimonials
“Tomi is the best! I love to play around, but when Tomi tells me to do something, I get serious and pay attention. She is strict, but I can tell that she really cares. Sometimes, I don’t understand her, but she always finds a way to make me understand. She never gets angry, and she always has the best treats!”
– Rob M. (on behalf of “Gnarly”)
“We have absolutely loved every minute of training with Tomi! She is unbelievably professional and super sweet… We had a brand new dog after 6 weeks!… Do not hesitate… Tomi will make your puppy-life more bearable and enjoyable.”
– Wally’s Owners
“Tomi is an amazing dog trainer and true professional! Our dogs absolutely love when she comes to visit and so do we! She does a really great job of teaching us not only training techniques, but the whys behind them to better understand our dogs. Highly recommended!”
