Kind words from the teams we've helped.

After struggling for months with Mazie's anxiety—afraid of kids, other dogs and riding in vehicles—we decided to try Pawsitively Service Dogs. From day one, Jen was compassionate, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. Their personalized approach really set them apart: they took the time to get to know Mazie's triggers, created a step-by-step desensitization plan, and taught us exactly how to reinforce calm behavior at home. Within just a few weeks, we saw Mazie transform from a nervous wreck into a confident, relaxed pup. The training sessions themselves were fun and stress-free, and Jen always made both Mazie and us feel supported. They provided clear homework exercises, ongoing check-ins, and encouraging feedback, which kept us motivated and on track. Thanks to their expertise, Mazie now greets visitors with a wagging tail instead of trembling and drooling. She loves going in the car to work or camping. We couldn't be happier with the results—Jen was amazing, and we wholeheartedly recommend Pawsitively Service to anyone whose dog needs help overcoming anxiety!

I've been working with Melanie for several months with Ruby (Roo) the chocolate lab. I am disabled and low income, but Melanie has worked with me to ensure I can still take part in the training program. She travels to me most of the time because I don't have my own car. She's incredibly kind, patient and understanding. I now have my service dog in training full time, and it's changed my life so much. The confidence I have gained is priceless

Jenn is thoughtful, reliable and trustworthy. My dog Juni is always delighted to see her and looks forward to their weekly walks together! I would recommend Jenn to anyone who is looking for someone they can trust with their furry loved ones!

Melanie is a great person to work with. She is knowledgeable, confident, and understanding. When I first met Melanie, it was through our Spaniel group as we have the same breed of dog. Her dog Chewie was her service dog at the time and I was interested in information around training my dog as a service dog. I was nervous to approach Melanie but I really should not have been! She was very kind and offered me the information I needed as well as offered to assess my Cavalier, Ginny, to see if she could become a service dog/ if I could train in public. After Melanie assessed Ginny, she continued to answer my questions and help me with my training. Melanie is so understanding and accommodating for my disability she is one of the people I feel most comfortable with bringing my questions to. Melanie has helped me immensely in my service dog journey and I would not be where I am today without her!
