Testimonials

“Pet Coach to the Rescue helped me manage my dog’s strong prey drive. Walking her used to be a challenge—every time she spotted a squirrel or cat, she’d lunge after them, dragging me along. Now, thanks to their guidance, our walks are peaceful. We can calmly enjoy watching the squirrels instead of chasing them.”
-Kari G

“Shawna and Jessica are wonderful and super knowledgeable. They make training fun, approachable, and easy to understand both for me and my puppy. We did the puppy classes, the walk and train and now we do the social walks. It’s been truly incredible to see my dog’s confidence and manners improve week by week. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for patient, supportive, and skilled trainers.”
-Mieraf E.

“PCttR is incredible! We rescued a very traumatized dog, and Shawna has helped us get to know her needs and behaviors, plus unlocked so many fun things to do with her. She now knows how to heel, stay, wait, and is even working well on being calmer around people and dogs. Cannot recommend enough!”
