What my customers are saying…
“Highly recommend for training! Emily is very knowledgeable and the games she uses really helped us with heel walking for our pups. They felt like small changes at first but now it is so good to be able to not be pulled throughout the walks. Emily made the sessions really fun and worked around our busy schedules, and having the information about the games after each session really helped us to keep up the training in between.” - Beth T Amer
“Emily has been working with us to help us with our rescue dog who did not have a good start in life.
With her help we have been able to cue our dog to focus on us during walks so we can let him off the lead sometimes, and to ensure he disengages from potential danger.
Emily's style is very inclusive and she shows so much patience with the human side of the equation!
Emily also looks after Lucky if we have to be away: we are very happy to leave her in charge as we know our home and our dog are in safe and professional hands.” - Andrew Ginn
“We’ve just finished a 6 week puppy training course with Emily and I can’t recommend her highly enough. From the start, Emily created a structured yet fun and engaging environment that really helped our shy pup, Frank, come out of his shell. He used to be very wary of other dogs, but thanks to Emily’s calm and patient approach, he’s now confident and friendly, truly every dog’s best friend!
Emily goes the extra mile in every session, making sure both owners and pups leave with new skills (and smiles!). Her classes are well organised, supportive, and always positive. We’re so grateful for the progress Frank has made and are really looking forward to working with her again in the future.” - Jordon Piper
“Emily at Pawz and Tails Dog Training and pet sitting was awesome. We have recently completed the 6 week puppy class and Emily was so patient with Colby, our Border Collie X Golden Retreiver. You could see his confidence grow at every session, and the excellent advice, tips and tricks Emily showed us really helped us to understand how to keep his focus and mind on the end goal. We will be continuing to use Emily to help us with some aspects of his walking and building confidence around bigger dogs. Highly recommend Emilys services to anybody!” - Chris Poole
