Testimonials

  • "Lily’s philosophy and methods of teaching positive reinforcement training are wonderful, fun and, best yet, effective. For example “A dog is not being stubborn or trying to disobey you when they don’t listen; there is a communication break down and they just have no idea what you want”. I love that she emphasizes mutual respect, trust and providing an interesting and fun life for your dog where their needs really matter too..."

  • "**Highly Recommend! Flexible, Accommodating, and Professional** ... She always communicated promptly and worked with me to find the best times that suited both of us. Lily was professional, patient, and great with my dog. Her tailored approach really made a difference, and my dog responded so well to her techniques. If you're looking for a reliable and flexible dog trainer who truly cares, I highly recommend Lily!"

  • "I have had Lily working and training my English Mastiff for 6 sessions. She has done a very good job with him and has helped much in calming him down and teaching him improved behaviors. I am very happy with her skills."

    Steve & Odin

  • "I booked a consultation with Lily and really appreciated how informative it was. She is extremely empathetic and respectful and took the time to assess our needs! The recommendations she gave were extremely helpful and I am very glad I reached out to her."

    Mallory & Birdie

  • "Finding a trainer that will come to my home and see me and my dogs in action is invaluable. Lily is knowledgeable and offers great ideas during training sessions. Her summary emails are packed with information, links, and videos. How she remembers everything we talked about and observed is amazing, but she doesn't miss a thing. I don't know how she does it. I can work off the ideas and tips in the email for weeks! I would definitely recommend Lily to anyone who wants to build a strong, positive relationship with their dogs!"

  • "Lily was incredibly professional and so attentive to my dogs. She walked me through a training plan that addressed our immediate needs. After our session, ... I received an email packed with wonderful resources, tips, and recommendations that she has collected from her own experiences, so I can continue to work with them while I wait for our scheduled sessions. I’m so glad we decided to hire Lily! It was such a great choice, and I can’t wait to have her come back to help us some more with our puppies!"

    Kela, Padfoot & Croia

  • "We absolutely LOVE Lily and would recommend her a million times to anyone needing help training their dog. We found Spot On Dog Training LLC through recommendations on Reddit and we could not be happier. Our dog Moose is a 4 year old wild boy. Lily was very knowledgeable with reactive animals and... she also focused on his mental and physical health to get him on the path to becoming the goodest boy. Lily is amazing and really takes the time with your pet and you making sure that you have all the questions answered..."
