From our very first phone call, Kim demonstrated exceptional insight and knowledge about our two Beagles, which surpassed anything we had previously heard or considered. On the day of training, Kim arrived punctually and was fantastic with our boys, who quickly picked up the commands. Kim's gentle yet firm approach to their training played a significant role in this accomplishment. There is much more that I could say, but I highly recommend Eye-To-Eye Training. A+++++.

Kim is simply incredible! After only two sessions with her, our three-month-old golden retriever puppy has already mastered potty training, sitting, coming, watching, and lying down, and has made significant improvements in the "leave it" command. Additionally, she has assisted in our puppy's successful crate training! We are thrilled with Kim and couldn't be happier with our choice. We're eagerly anticipating our third session with her! 💕

Working with Kim was an absolute pleasure--her gentle approach with dogs is unparalleled. Thanks to her expertise and guidance, our dog Ginger, who had been prone to resource guarding and snippiness, is now much safer and more manageable. Kim was able to help us address this issue in a single session, and we ended up working with her for a total of three--with plans for more in the spring. Her practical solutions are both effective and affordable. Believe me, I did my research, and you will not find a better value than Eye to Eye Dog Training. Kim is simply the best!

My smart dog was causing me endless frustration with his reluctance to obey me. That's when I stumbled upon Kim who I shared my concerns with, including my pooch's aggressive tendencies. Our initial appointment with her was simply incredible. Along with Miloh, I too acquired a wealth of knowledge from her. Kim's rates were reasonable, and her techniques earned her a five-star rating from me. I'm glad to have found the right means of managing my newest addition to the family.

Kim is amazing! When we adopted a dog last November, we quickly realized we lacked knowledge on how to handle him. We enrolled in a 3-visit package and after the first visit, we gained some incredible tools that gave us a sense of relief and boosted our dog's confidence. During the follow-up visits, Kim supported us in addressing our dog's walking reactivity, leash abilities, and approaching unfamiliar people. She has been an incredibly valuable resource to us! Her patience and clarity in explanations are truly remarkable. Thank you so much!
