Maureen was amazing and a great fit for our needs! Thank you!

Maureen was amazing! She taught us so many skills to help handle our dog better for leash reactivity. And she clearly cared a lot for him. If we have any issues in the future, we will be coming back!

We had our 6 month old puppy (Millie) work with Helena Love in Dropoff Training. Helena is an absolutely AMAZING trainer. She was so attentive with Millie and I feel so confident in saying Millie has positively transformed in over just a few weeks of working with Helena. Helena was always available for our questions and concerns and really formed a deep relationship with our pup! We will miss working with Helena as we are moving out of state, but highly recommend anyone to work with her!! Thank you, Helena!!

Courtney is wonderful! We learned so much from her.

Jamie did a wonderful job with our group! She helped us feel confident and made class enjoyable and go by quickly. She also did a great job correcting us without making us feel like we were doing something wrong. We will definitely look to continue group classes at Tucker Pup's and potentially even boarding!
- Laura Creese
Jamie is great! She kept the Adult Manners class moving, she had a fun attitude, she was very attentive, and didn't take things too seriously. We loved it! Lucy was so happy to go to class, and she improved week over week in class and at home. Thank you, Jamie!

Allison is a wonderful. Our pup still has a long way to go but she has provided us with great tools to build a successful training path.

Maureen was great in the Intermediate Manners course. We were a little nervous, but she put us at ease and worked with us to get the most out of our dog.
- Laure Leger
Jessie was an incredible trainer! She was so patient with us and our sweet pup as we learned to navigate her fear of dogs. Petra has come a long way and really is all due to Jessie and the skills she taught us. Highly recommend and so thankful!

The social is well structured and I always leave with good tips to use at home.

Maureen is extremely knowledgeable, kind, patient and optimistic. We loved working with her, she gave us so many useful tools and the confidence to manage training with love and care!! Our pup Stella loves her too!

Private in-home training with Courtney was great! In 8 short weeks, we have seen so much progress with our dog. We first contacted Tucker Pup's for suspected separation anxiety, which was 'solved' in about 3 lessons. Leash reactivity was next. We can now ignore most dogs while walking past. He used to bark bloody murder if he saw a dog 2 blocks away. Still working on noise sensitivity, but Courtney gave us the tools we need to continue working on his issues and we feel prepared to keep practicing and improving throughout his life.

We really enjoyed our first puppy social with Helena Love and can’t wait to come back!
- Krista Paulsen
Helena is fantastic! She gives ideas and constructive feedback. The puppy social is well run and somehow Helena can talk and keep track of the puppies! We love the socials as an add on to the training.

Phaedra was amazing to work with for drop off training. She’s patient, a clear communicator, and has done an excellent job helping my puppy and I build a strong training foundation. We’ve come so far since our first day – and our success is in large part because Phaedra takes the time to understand my puppy's distinct qualities. She is a standout trainer and we're excited to continue a second round of drop off training together!
- Melissa Bastanipour
Everyone at Tucker Pup's, especially Phaedra, has been amazing! I appreciate how accommodating and patient Phaedra was with Ryder.
Back in November I had to stop walking him because he was pulling me down the sidewalk. Now we are able to go on 6 mile walks with him by my side and checking in with me.
He made so much growth during his time at Tucker Pup's and I could not be more grateful! I know Ryder will be miss his "school days" at TP! :)

We've had a really great experience working with Phaedra through Tucker Pup’s Dropoff Training program. We originally signed Cliff up for one round and have already started a second because of how much progress we’ve seen.
Cliff came into the program as a typical high-energy puppy with a short attention span, especially in distracting environments. Since working with Phaedra, we’ve seen noticeable improvements in his focus, leash behavior, and overall ability to settle and make better decisions both at home and outside.
What we’ve appreciated most is how thoughtful and practical her approach is. She does a great job balancing structured training with real-world application, and the weekly progress sessions have been extremely helpful for us as owners to understand how to reinforce everything at home.
She’s also been very honest and communicative about Cliff’s progress, which we’ve really valued. It’s clear she cares about the dogs she’s working with and wants to set them up for long-term success, not just short-term results.
Overall, we’ve been very happy with the program and working with Phaedra; it’s been a great investment for Cliff and for us.

Jamie is the absolute best, the progression week over week with our puppy was incredible. We will definitely be looking forward to more training and working with Jamie in the future. She is dedicated to helping each puppy parent, she is patient and helps teach everyone in the class.

There are not enough good things to say about Allison. She has a wonderful personality, is a pleasure to work with, was very professional and so helpful and knowledgeable regarding training our poodle. She is so kind and thoughtful and understood deeply what our dog's personality was like and what she needed. I learned so much and feel well able to continue the training process. And most importantly, our poodle LouLou loved her!!
