I have known Grace for a while now and she has saved not one but two of my dogs from getting evicted from my home lol. Recently I saw she put up a post about a so called doggy daycare company that clearly in it for money not love. I also have seen the personal attacks on line posting spam bullshit trying to discredit her to cover their own lack of morals, I also have seen people post anonymously as the are cowards to say who they are because they know what they are attempting to do! I can say with 100% honesty that I have never met someone like Grace for many reasons lol, but I can say she is good, damn good at her job and always has the dogs best interests first, sometimes even above the owners when they feel they know better. Grace is kind, confident and equally as stubborn as the dogs she trains. Grace never gives up or backs down from what she knows to be true even when she probably should, she knows her stuff like no other I have met and it’s a shame what the shitty company tried to do to ruin her reputation. I am proud to know Grace and will be hiring her in a few weeks for our new puppy but I am so proud of her for once again not backing down and holding her head high and carry herself with dignity, you can’t knock that girl down she just comes back stronger. Grace is an amazing trainer and if you need help trust me she is the one for you. Money well spent and she is ALWAYS in your corner and available by text almost always even when she is on holidays( thank god) when we need her. Thank you our amazing Grace and can’t wait to start in a couple weeks.
Thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement. Can’t wait to see you in September
We adopted a “Covid puppy” she was 14 months old when we got her and had some issues that we really needed to work on. With Grace’s help we were able to work on all of the less than desirable behaviours that our girl had and now when we go for walks I get compliments on what a good girl we have and how well behaved she is. I simply cannot recommend Grace enough!!
I first met Grace when Maisie was just a puppy. At the time I did not realize that Maisie was slowly developing anxiety and fear (leading into fear aggression). Maisie’s behaviour was becoming unpredictable and her reactions started to escalate to barking, chasing or attempting to ‘air-bite’ at the heals of anyone coming or leaving our home.
I remembered the conversation I had with Grace and decided it was time to give her a call.
Maisie has been enrolled in dog manners, obedience and other training, but nothing was working. The problems were not at the training classes … most of her issues were at home ‘protecting her space’.
Grace explained the dog behaviour and that I (we) needed to take on a stronger leaders position with her. My partner and I have been using the tools and applying her advice and instruction - I am amazed at the changes we are seeing in our pet, our home and in us as Maisie’s handlers.
Grace, thank you for sharing your knowledge, skills and honest forthright guidance. You are indeed the Dog Whisperer…and we are reaping the benefits of your instruction and our calmer home.
My name is Linda and my dog is a sweet little girl until I take her for a walk, then she turns into a little holy terror. If I’m honest I’m embarrassed to take her in public, and such a total personality switch. I was given Graces name through the community Facebook page where I asked for suggestions for a trainer. There were several options besides Grace and I called several of them on the list and felt like some of the people I spoke with were more interested in money vs results, some guaranteed results before even meeting with us and said they were the best! After speaking with Grace over the phone she just has a way about her that spoke to my soul and met me on a level I could get behind and thought I need to actually meet this lady and see if my instincts were correct? Boy oh boy was my gut feeling bang on, Grace is absolutely a god send and fully understood my heart ache and made me feel at ease knowing I was not alone was a game changer. I had 2 lessons with Grace and the transformation was amazing and if I’m honest came quickly, we used the right tools and developed a plan just mor me and my girl, no bullshit just brutal honesty and that was what I needed. Grace may not be high on everyone’s list of referrals but she absolutely should be on the top of your list of trainer! She doesn’t do a lot of advertising on social media and that’s okay as she is too busy changing peoples lives and the lives of our dogs. So I’ll do her advertising for her. Grace you are amazing, knowledgeable, compassionate, and an absolute miracle worker! I absolutely adore you and can’t say enough good things about you. If you need help with anything from behaviour issues, basic obedience or getting your puppy off on the right footing you should call Grace. Thank you so much and from the bottom of my heart I am no longer embarrassed to take my sweet girl out in public, she actually wants to greet people now where before wanted to eat them. ❤️
Thank you so much for you’re very kind words they mean the world to me. I am grateful for you.
Grace trained us how to help our girl be the best she could b
Grace came to my work to help me socialize my dog so she could stay and come to work with me everyday. I had clients and delivery people who were either afraid of her or loved her so much they encouraged the bad behaviour and she would not listen to me at all. She was so jumpy that she even knocked people off their feet and then proceeded to hump or bark in their faces, obviously this was a huge problem and I was gonna be let go or have to keep her home if something didn’t change and neither option was a good one for me. So I called Grace and she not only knew what to do but how to make my girl respectful of people and the work place, in just a few lessons we had a new dog and a dog who responded to me and my commands and now the people who were afraid of her now enjoy her company and can often find her in their offices having cuddles or simply napping 💤 this was an entirely new work environment and she now is employee of the month lol. I am so grateful for Grace and her knowledge and capability to change dogs and make them a joy to be around. Grace is amazing and I know you may think I’m blowing smoke up your ass but trust me she is worth every penny I spent and would recommend her to everyone no matter your issues big or small she has a solution that works if you work her program. You won’t regret giving her a call!
Wow!! Thank you for that amazing review and you are the very reason and so many dogs like yours is why I absolutely love my job!!!
We contacted Grace for training issues with Sophie, a 2 year old Portuguese Water dog. As soon as we spoke, I knew she was the one for us after we had taken her to 2 others, with poor results.
Grace knows dogs, their behavour patterns and how to correct learned and/or bad habits. She provides insight as to why your dog acts the way she/he does and how to correct your bevaviour to get the right results.
She's earthy, approachable, calls a spade a spade & tells you staight up when you, as the parent, are enabling your dog to act out.
I wish we had contacted Grace much sooner than we did. She would have changed our ways in dealing with this highly intelligent, challenging bundle of unconditional love. We now have a less challenging, fun loving amazing dog who is so intuned to us and our expected behaviour.
Thank you Grace. We will always keep in touch with you just to hear your humourous stories of all your pets - dogs, cats, pigs, horses.
We called Grace because she came highly recommended. We have a dog who has severe trust issues and it makes things almost impossible to do, she wouldn’t walk, always paces, can’t give meds, groom, or even run kitchen appliances such as the dishwasher. We called Grace and she came out and did our assessment and felt she could make significant improvements so we rolled the dice and said let’s try! Grace came in calm and quiet and just sat low on the floor and patiently waited for our girl to be interested in her and it took less then 5 min, that alone I was amazed as our girl barely trust us. Once Grace earned her trust she looked to Grace for guidance and before we knew it she was following Grace everywhere! She even sat in the kitchen while the dishwasher ran and ate snacks from Grace, usually she would have run out of the kitchen and go hide. On our second visit Grace was able to cut her nails and detangle a knot out of her fur, I was so impressed and couldn’t believe what I was seeing. We know our girl will never be so called normal but Grace is showing us how to be patient and help her overcome her fears and to look for us for comfort. Grace is a miracle worker as far as I’m concerned and as she was highly recommended to me, I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone who needs help with their dogs! She is honest and never says she can do something if she feels like she can’t! Thank you so much Grace we greatly appreciate you.
Thank you so much for your kind words
I called Grace about a month or so about my dog, I was at my wits end. My dog was so out of control and if I’m honest she was embarrassing! I have had dogs my entire life but nothing like this girl. She jumped on everything and everyone, ate anything she could get her mouth on, dug holes all over my yard, stole food off counters etc. etc. etc. I tried everything and searched the internet and watched 100’s of videos and nothing was working so I called Grace. Grace came into my home and I think was shocked at my girl but bravely said she would take on this wild dog. I said to Grace if this doesn’t work she would be finding a new home. Grace came back two weeks later, took a deep breath and started to put this dog in her place to show her she was not the boss of my house. Grace showed her what she wanted and after many corrections she finally started to listen, Grace was breaking a sweat but didn’t quit until she got the behaviour she wanted and explained to me to not back down and just dig in and not stop until she does as she was told. After many many hours, weeks of work and continued support from Grace we finally were able to do what was needed. My dog was looking to me for direction and when I gave her a clear command she did it! I can’t believe the impossible was now possible and this dog is like a brand new dog. Thank you so much Grace for showing ME how to train her and hold myself accountable. You are amazing and would hire you again in a minute, I have told and shown everyone about your amazing work and will pass you info on to everyone. Thanks for saving my sanity, you are simply the best. Much love and appreciation.
I would like to speak to all who are feeling defeated, frustrated, lost and who think they are on a desert island. You are not alone! I know you’re struggling and most likely have spent lots of money on some very bad advice from so called trainers in this area and I feel your pain. I was in the same boat you think you are now, but I promise you Grace will be the one to rescue you from this. We had spent money on a couple trainers and included was some daycares, I promise they are not all created equal, not by a long shot.
Grace is very unique and like nothing you have met before, she is brutally honest, does not mince words and will always tell it like it is whether you want to hear it or not. She is strong willed, hard working and patient, she is also sarcastically funny, but will not give up on you or your dog. Thank god she is because if she wasn’t people and dogs would be getting injured and this world would be a shit show! We called Grace when we were at the end of our ropes, we thought our only options left were either re homing our dog or possible euthanasia, neither was an option that made us feel good.
Grace came to our house, met us, our dog and our environment and quickly figured out where we were going wrong, it was US! We were the issue and our dog was taking advantage of our soft hearts and ignorance of what was a good home. We thought a good home was warm, full of love, food, toys, beds etc. Grace made us understand that none of that matters if we do not have structure, confidence, consistency of the rules and what our expectations are of a good dog. Grace as far as I’m concerned is a miracle worker, she held us accountable and showed us a path to success, great success if I’m completely honest, it wasn’t easy but worth every minute and dollar we spent.
Grace succeeded where other trainers failed. So if any of my story sounds or feels familiar it’s because you are not alone. Grace will be there! Grace will show up! Grace will forge a path to success, Grace will make your wishes come true! Grace I thank you from the bottom of our hearts for saving what is now our sweet dog. I highly recommend anyone and everyone to call Grace, you won’t be disappointed I promise.
sincerely lady B
Hi, I just wanted to add my comments along with all the above about Grace and her expertise and knowledge of our furbabies and best friends. After saying goodbye to my fourteen year old cockapoo this summer I realized I needed a new buddy and that’s when I found Cassie. Being only eight weeks old she came with all the vim and vinegar her five pound little body could hold wrapped up in Love and kisses. It wasn’t long before I realized I needed help as she was fast becoming the ruler here. Hence entered Grace and doggy boot camp. I missed her a lot but Grace put pics up on Facebook for me to keep tabs on Cassie daily and called a few times as well…I so appreciate communication. When she came home we could have a nice walk not pulling and yanking me all over the place, being 99% trained, not jumping all over guests and meeting other dogs calmly. We still have work to do her and I but on my terms now. Thank you Grace for your patience and understanding in teaching us the ground rules upon which we can continue to build on thru the years.
