I couldn’t have kept my Great Dane puppy without her guidance and training. Which is still ongoing. We do training at my house, in the street, at the park, I can call or email her with issues as they arise. I’ve also found her knowledge of products like food, collars, leads ect helpful. Totally recommend! 👏Posted on Google Victoria FitzgeraldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Caroline trained our Cavoodle Stanley to loose lead walk and he is walking beautifully now. Caroline is now training our second Cavoodle Rupert who isn't used to walking without Stanley and has been planting himself and not walking with us. In three lessons Rupert has improved so much, the planting has reduced and he is learning to be more obedient when he walks with us. Thank you Caroline!Posted on Google Celia Newlands (Central Busns Assoc.)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our puppy Hazel is medium/large, and was not fun to walk - constantly pulling and very erratic, even causing significant pain on some occasions. Because of her size and strength, it was making us all dread walking her. Caroline got us all sorted in just the two lessons, and walks are now a much more calm and pleasant experience for all of us! So worthwhile, and such a transformation - for puppy and owners 😉 Thank you from all of us 🐶🐾🦮🥰Posted on Google Rebecca DavisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing experience working along side Caroline with our two pups. We all have learnt so much we can’t recommend her highly enough!! Thank you Caroline!!Posted on Google Jack WardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We cannot recommend Caroline highly enough! She has been an absolute lifesaver for our Westie puppy, Ripley. When we started, we were struggling with some of the most common puppy challenges, especially recall and walking on a lead. It often felt like we were making no progress. Caroline's approach is incredible. She is so patient and knowledgeable, not just with Ripley, but with us as well. She gave us the tools and confidence to work with her effectively. The improvements have been amazing. Ripley's recall has gone from non-existent to reliable, and our walks are now so much more enjoyable because she walks calmly by our side. Beyond recall and lead work, Caroline has helped us with a range of other behavioral improvements. Her positive reinforcement techniques have made such a difference, and it's clear how much she truly loves dogs. We are so grateful for her guidance and support in helping Ripley become a well-behaved and happy member of our family.Posted on Google Olivia JorgensenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an amazing experience with Caroline as our dog trainer for our 2-year-old miniature dachshund, Maurice. She was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and informative throughout the entire process. Caroline took the time to understand Maurice’s unique personality and gave us practical, effective tools to work with him at home. We’ve seen a noticeable improvement in his behavior and confidence, and we feel much more confident as dog owners too. Highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for a skilled and caring trainer!Posted on Google gosia vukovicTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Caroline was an absolute lifesaver! Before we reached out to her, our two rescue dogs, Zazu and Ash, were struggling—Zazu was quite aggressive, and Ash was extremely shy. They even got into serious fights, and we had to keep them separated, constantly rotating them in different spaces, which was exhausting and stressful. With Caroline’s expert guidance and structured approach, we took things slowly—incorporating games, positive moments, and walks—and the results were incredible. Now, they’re the best of friends! Zazu is much gentler with other dogs, and Ash has gained so much confidence, happily playing at the park. We’re beyond grateful for the tools Caroline gave us to create this happy bond. Highly recommend her to anyone needing help with their dogs!Posted on Google Desley KeuneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thanks Caroline for you very informative one on one sessions with our family. We feel more confident now with our puppy that we have worked with you. Your instructions are direct and clear, making it easy for us to do the necessary homework. We will be in touch for some fine tuning down the track, I'm sure.Posted on Google Team Fresh CleaningTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Caroline helping us managing change of attention and working on focus skills. With key tasks and details as eye looking contact, sharp change of direction of walking and right positioning of the dog and lead size while keeping Leo under control, being able to recognise right timing for treat and rate reward, while having fun and understanding. Highly recommend! 👏Posted on Google Alison FraserTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Caroline is the puppy whisperer! Nobody can believe at 12wks how well behaved she is! I got in touch with Caroline just before picking up our new 8wk old puppy and booked in for 2 in home puppy lessons. I cannot recommend these lessons to new puppy owners enough. Caroline was extremely professional, tailored the sessions to suit us and our goals and kept everything fun for both us and the puppy! Getting in touch with Caroline early meant we started training off on the right foot and avoided any bad habits from the get go. Plus the positive reinforcement and relationship building games that Caroline uses are so fun that our pup absolutely loves training (although the treats may help)! We learnt so much from Caroline and our pup aced puppy preschool based on Caroline’s methods. We definitely learnt more from Caroline than from puppy preschool (which was great for socialisation), so if you can I would recommend both together. We are planning to keep in touch and check in with Caroline in the future as she is a fantastic source of knowledge.
