“Amazing! She is the best.”

“Raquel has changed our lives!!! She came out to work with our German Shepherd, who we found out was highly prey-driven, and quite a bit neurotic. She helped us understand her behaviors, and what we could do to redirect her. She spent two and a half hours with us, and it was money well spent! We didn’t want to post our review right away, to make sure the training stuck. I have to say, we, and our dog, have retained what we learned in one session with Raquel, and the change has been dramatic. Walks are extremely enjoyable now, not a tug-of-war, like they used to be. Our dog knows her limits, and we really only correct her occasionally now. We are forever grateful for the knowledge and expertise that Raquel imparted to us and our dog. We highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a GREAT trainer!”

“Raquel is a dream to work with. Direct, action-based, knowledgeable, and kind – a perfect combination with working with challenging pups. As first time dog people, Raquel provided us with the tools, understanding, and confidence to work towards a well balanced dog. We couldn’t recommend Raquel more highly.”

“I was recommended to Raquel through my friend who found her on Thumbtack. She was amazing! Everything my friend said she could do, she did. I had a terrible issue with potty training and manners in general, especially jumping whenever visitors came, or playing too rough with the kids. She stopped both our dogs immediately from jumping and not listening. It was magical to watch the dogs react to her. But more importantly she taught us how to get the same respect from our dogs. The dogs are completely different and we waited a month to post our review because one day dog training seemed impossible to believe. It’s been over a month and the dogs continue to improve using her techniques. Potty issues are finally resolved after four trainers and a board-and-train program. Raquel was right, the only reason they get naughty is if we don’t use the techniques and are not consistent. We even experimented and yes, if we slacked so did the dogs. Do yourself a favor, don’t waste your time and money on anyone else like we did. This trainer is great and really cares about you, your kids, and your dogs.”

“Raquel was great. She knows a lot about dog training and was very helpful. Our dog Oreo is a different dog now. Last night, after she left, I used the skills that she trained us on with Oreo and it worked. I called a couple of other dog trainers but after reading her reviews I decided to go with Raquel and I am happy that I did, she is wonderful.”
