My wife and I had a great experience working with Ann and her assistant dog-trainer - Kaya. We had both group lessons and a few private lessons and felt like my wife, our dog - Raven - and had a great experience. Raven learned a lot, but - more importantly -- we learned how to train Raven on our own

After a a very frustrating period in which I could not get my 6 year old rescue Scottie to "get" housebreaking I hired Ann. It was a total game-changer and we are now a happy family with no more constant washing of dog beds, pee pads and so on.It's important to keep in mind that behavior will never change in a day but if you stick to the plan with consistency and patience you will be rewarded with positive results!Highly recommend her.

We absolutely loved working with Ann for private training! She gave us the tools to bring out the best in our dog and helped us address his reactivities on leash. Our dog is a bit fearful and after working with Ann we've seen him make huge strides in building his confidence!

Had a great experience while training our bullmastiff puppy with Pups to Pooches! Great service, would highly recommend it to anyone, regardless of the size of their dog!

Ann us the perfect trainer for new puppies and dogs with old habits! I hired Ann to help me train my new puppy - so I have a well behaved dog and will make both our lives happier. After working with her and watching her engage with Piper, I knew she could help my son with his 10 year old dog. As expected - she has help both of us! If you are looking for an exceptional pet trainer and a “dog” whisperer - you won’t go wrong hiring Ann!

Kaya is amazing! She is very sweet, knowledgeable about pups, and her training technique is really amazing. She has helped my family so much with training our 1 year old golden doodle.

Our nonprofit has been collaborating with Pups to Pooches to help more behaviorally-challenged dogs develop the skills they need to life harmoniously with the veterans who adopt them and to avoid the dogs being surrendered to shelters.One such case is an Air Force veteran and her adopted dog, Hanna, who showed serious aggression issues following her adoption. Our veteran was devastated by the shelter trainer's recommendation that Hanna be euthanized.Pups 2 Pooches was nothing short of lifesaving, for both Hanna and her human. An initial, in-depth consultation revealed that Hanna was not a euthanasia candidate after all. With proper tools and guidance from Pups 2 Pooches, Hanna is thriving and her veteran has regained her sense or purpose.In fact, I'll paraphrase something our veteran said at the end of a recent virtual training session - thank you for saving Hanna's life and, by extension, the veteran's as well. It's clear that in a short period of time that Pups 2 Pooches developed a strong rapport with our veteran and her dog, and are giving them even more tools to create their future success.Don't give up on a "problem" dog before contacting Pups 2 Pooches. Tell them Hanna sent you!

Ann was very helpful in training our dog Twiggy, who is a handful. Months later we still use many of her suggestions and I don't know where we would be without her help. I could not recommend more enthusiastically.

Ann is Great! I purchased 5 in home session and it was 100% worth it. She carefully walks you through working with your puppy and sends follow up videos after each session. I would recommend this to any dog owner.

Ann and her crew are great trainers - for pups and people! Her knowledge of breed personalities/characteristics far outreach what information I obtained through extensive internet research before we purchased our mini-bernedoodle and she has really helped us understand our new addition! Training techniques are spot on and they're great at training the trainer - not just the pooch. Looking forward to the next level!

Ann’s puppy classes were a great help with my new puppy. We were able to take lessons learned in class and easily complete them from home. Would definitely recommend if you have a new puppy and want help with training.

I highly recommend Ann as a trainer. She is patient, professional, reliable and most importantly knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. I was having difficulty handling Zuko’s hyper activeness and Ann helped me regain confidence in myself as a pet parent. After his first training session, we realized that he had some anxiety and fear issues. Ann did an incredible job working with Zuko using simple games that helped build his confidence. And now his fear, reactivity and anxiety are greatly reduced. Anne exceeded our expectations as a trainer. I am truly appreciative and grateful to Ann and I can’t thank her enough for helping me and Zuko.
