We trust Julia with our little Margaux more than anyone we’ve worked with. When Julia first met Margaux, she was anxious, not completely potty trained, and could not be left alone. After a couple weeks working with Julia, she is a completely different dog. She is confident, calm on her walks, and able to stay alone without barking. Julia was patient, intuitive, calm, and caring with Margaux and gave us some great tips to help build a healthy relationship with our dog.

I am so glad I found Julia when I did. My whole experience of finally having a dog had been a bit of a disappointment and I was going through a lot of feelings like guilt, doubt, and even regret. She took the time to assure me that this can be normal for first time owners; love at first sight hardly ever happens. Julia really took her time listening to my issues and Ezra’s (my 6-month-old poodle) behavior. Ezra was very anxious and needy. After Julia’s advice, Ezra’s barking, while we were away, stopped immediately and completely and within the next weeks, she became a playful and fun puppy. I would definitely recommend her to anyone experiencing challenges with their dog and plan to consult her regularly for more behavioral tips and training as Ezra gets older.

Julia, we cannot thank you enough for how you’ve helped us be better parents for our rescue dog, Loki. He was so reactive, lunging at other dogs on lead, chasing squirrels, trying to chase ducks and going crazy if he saw cats. Even after one session with you, and following your advice, one week later he was well on the road to being a much calmer, more amenable dog, easier to walk and, we think, happier too. We are sure that if he could talk, Loki would be in full agreement, and we would not hesitate to recommend you (indeed Sarah has already done so) to anyone with a dog who is not yet perfectly behaved. Thank you again!

As first-time dog owners, it is such a relief knowing Julia. We had the pleasure of working with Julia for the past two months, shortly after we have adopted our insecure and shy dog Wammes. Due to his history, Wammes has some anxiety issues, like staying alone and interacting with other dogs. Julia has been an amazing help in the rehabilitation process for Wammes. During her initial visit, Julia patiently and calmly listened to us, taking notes and generally made us feel that she really valued our input. In the end, her advice and recommendations are really tailored according to the unique personality of each dog, non-judgmentally leaving it up to you to adjust. She truly cares for the well-being of the dogs. We highly recommend Julia to any dog owner who is looking for a professional, caring and compassionate behavior therapist.

Julia has saved me and my dog Miffy from losing our minds as we couldn’t communicate and understand each other completely. I was so tired of all his misbehaves I started considering a new home for him. It’s then when a friend of mine told me about Julia and forced me to contact her. Best decision ever! In only 3 sessions Miffy changed to the affection showing and well-behaving friend of mine! I now feel confident walking him in different places where other dogs are and I know he won’t run away as he used to do. I really recommend Julia!

Overcoming ours dog issues wouldn’t be possible without Julia’s help. We are very grateful for all the tips and hands-on experience as after years of struggling with different training methods nothing helped to teach our dog a recall and being left home alone. Julia achieved it in the most calm and positive way we could ever imagine. It was a pleasure to work with her and to have our eyes opened to the most dog friendly approach in the training possible.

Not only is Julia professional and highly experienced in dog behaviour but she has a way of explaining things that was calming to us as dog owners. She was just so lovely and patient with us and showed a genuine desire to be involved every step of the way! By following her guidance our dog Noa, in only two weeks, became much calmer and relaxed. We are thrilled with the results so far.

Thanks so much for all your help! Definitely invaluable! Max might not had stayed with us if it wasn’t for you. You help us all! Big thanks to you again. You are very good at what you do and it is clearly more than a job but a real passion.

I just wanted to say big thank you for setting us on the right path with our dog – Moro, because prior to meeting you and starting his behaviour modification we were really at a loss with how to proceed with his issues, or even if he could improve at all.
