Catherine demonstrated professionalism, honesty, and provided valuable information during her visit. As a dog owner with a 14 week old rescue puppy, I had started training techniques by watching YouTube videos. However, I needed a professional trainer to ensure I was utilizing the proper techniques. Catherine exceeded my expectations by offering various tips and suggestions that I would not have known on my own. She was also easy to talk to and did not watch the clock during our session, willing to stay longer than scheduled. Catherine's honesty stood out as she assessed my progress before we began and believed I did not need additional sessions, encouraging me to continue practicing on my own with the tips she provided. This was truly appreciated as other trainers may have insisted on additional lessons.

Working with Catherine was an absolutely amazing experience! My husband and I adopted a 2-3 year old Rottweiler that had been through 2 rescues and had previously been a mother, but unfortunately, we knew very little about her past. Despite her timidness and fearfulness towards people, occasionally resulting in nips, and her need for obedience training, we were determined to help her become the happy and lovable dog we knew she could be, especially with a baby on the way. That's when we stumbled upon Catherine's CrackerJack page, and after reading up on her credentials and rave reviews, we decided to give her a shot. We are so glad we did! Catherine's guidance and expertise have proven to be incredibly effective in just 2 months. Our dog no longer nips and is much more comfortable with people, children, and other animals. She has even learned multiple commands and seems happier and more at ease in our home. Catherine clearly loves what she does and it truly shows in her results. If you're in need of any assistance with your dog's behavior or training, look no further than Catherine - she is the real deal! 10000000000/5 stars!

Catherine was amazing in her approach towards our dog who had spent her first 5 years in a puppy mill, leaving her traumatized and extremely fearful. Catherine knew exactly how to handle Jessie and went above and beyond by spending more than an hour each visit to allow Jessie to become more comfortable with her. Her insights were invaluable and her techniques enabled us to gain Jessie's trust and start training her without causing stress. Catherine's recommendations proved to be effective as within 2-3 weeks, Jessie's fear of men improved and she began to trust my husband, seeking him out for walks and pets on her own. She no longer hides or cowers in fear when strangers enter the house and displays notably more confidence. Catherine was readily accessible, responding immediately to our questions and concerns. We could not be happier with Jessie's progress and would highly recommend Catherine to anyone in need of assistance with their furry companions.

Working with Catherine has been a wonderful experience. As a new dog owner, I appreciate her professionalism and patience. She has been able to communicate essential information to me in a concise and clear manner, which has made her training method very effective. My yellow lab, Maisie, has benefited greatly from the personalized attention and is making significant improvements.

Catherine proved to be a fantastic help, exhibiting remarkable patience and presenting a plethora of valuable ideas. She went out of her way to ensure my old dog and I had a convenient experience. Dealing with a senior dog, for whom a lifetime habit is hard to break, posed a considerable challenge, which Catherine managed to overcome admirably.
