Hilly is truly one of the best human beings you could ever meet. There's not enough stars and there's not enough words to describe how amazing Hilly truly is! We first met Hilly a few years back, way before I had my now gsd pup. There was a gorgeous gsd that was so well behaved, we were truly amazed that we just had to exchange info. Fast forward a few years, we got our own gsd and knew to contact Hilly asap! Our pup is almost 1 years old now, but he's been training with Hilly since he was about 4 months old. Our gsd is confident, well-behaved (as well-behaved a gsd pup can be lol), and with every training session, we see all the positive changes that Hilly has done with him. He doesn't pull on walks, he doesn't let other dogs barking at him bother him, he is confident around other people, and handles new environments pretty dang well. Even after our training sessions, Hilly stays available for any questions we have and literally has an answer for everything 😂 Which is awesome, cause we always have tons lol! Hilly is just *chef's kiss* one of the best out there. Not just as a trainer, but as a person. And there's nobody else we would trust our fur babies with. Hilly is the absolute sweetest, most educated in her field, super funny, and just the BEST. Absolute best ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you, Hilly for all that you do!!!

"Our dog did the puppy program and is now a PERFECT GENTLEMAN! Hilly not only trained our dog, but also trained us. Training with Hilly is WELL WORTH THE INVESTMENT!"

Our Labradoodle, Leo, just came home from a board and train with Hilly and we're blown away. Leo clearly loves Hilly, and Hilly is easy to work with and very reasonable. Their program sets their clients and their pups up for success but they also recognize that we aren't all dog trainers."

"Hilly is nothing short of a dog whisperer! They know and love dogs and the dogs adore them. They have been indispensable in training our rescue dog. We get constant compliments on our dog's obedience. Thanks to Hilly, our dog is loving, well-mannered, and filled with joy!"

"Prior to training, our dog was scared of everything. From typical things like garbage trucks to more unusual things like her own big floppy ears flapping in the wind--our pup navigated life riddled with anxiety. Hilly instilled confidence in our dog and just as importantly, empowered us as pet parents to guide our pup through life. Our dog now exudes happiness and joy! She's still a lovable goofball, but with Hilly's training and guidance, she can now focus on being a goofy pup obsessed with her hooman siblings instead of anxiety!"

"Our dog went through Hilly's Fully Trained Dog program and it was the best investment we ever made. Our pup had zero recall before his training and when he escaped it was so scary. He also was territorial in our house, reactive to other dogs when walking, and jumped on our guests...he caused us a lot of stress. After his training we now have full recall, and walk him without incident. He is way better with guests, and when he regresses, we have the tools to correct. hisbehavior. We are enjoyhim him so much more now, and he is calmer since he realizes he is not in charge. This was a game changer for our family."

"We sent our 7 month old German Shepherd to Hily's Fully Trained Dog Program. It was a great investment. Lex is almost 2 years old now and a. joy to have around. Because of his training, he's able to partake in family outings whether out shipping, restaurants, crowded events or at the park with his two little human brothers. His favorite though is being off-leash at. our local park. Due to his amazing recall and e-collar training, I'm comfortable to let him be off-leash and that would not have been possible without his time at Dog Training Together."

"We love Hilly! They are the best trainer and we're so happy we did the puppy board and train with them. Our puppy exhibited some fear aggression behavior. We wanted to make sure we got that under control. After three weeks, our Teddy came back from training still his sweet self but now with so much more confidence and we can communicate with him so much better. Not only do they train and teach commands, they address each dog's individual behavior and really gets to know them. Contact Hilly today if you need any help with your puppy or adult dog!"

"Hilly is nothing short of a dog whisperer! They know and love dogs and the dogs adore them. They have been indispensable in training our rescue dog with protective behavior as well as off-leash recall when distracted. They not only trained our dog but helped train the entire family. They are easy to communicate with and continue to provide ongoing support as needed. We get constant compliments on our dog's obedience. Thanks to Hilly, our dog is loving, well-mannered, and filled with joy!"

I used to dread walking my dog due to his reactivity towards other dogs and cars. Seeking help, I found Hilly, a fantastic trainer who transformed my experience with my 6 year old Samoyed. Hilly’s training methods changed my life, and I now truly enjoy our walks together! Hilly is incredibly patient, kind, and professional. Thank you, Hilly, for guiding me through a challenging time when I felt lost and frustrated. You’re the best!

Hilly is incredibly skilled, patient, and a pleasure to work with. Our labradoodle absolutely adores Hilly and has learned so much from our shared training and boarding experiences. I can't possibly recommend Dog Training Together, and especially Hilly, enough.

It has been an absolute joy to work with Hilly. We sent our 2 dogs to the Board and Train program and it was truly remarkable what Hilly was able to accomplish with them in just a few weeks. I was so grateful to be involved in the process. I learned a lot and had fun too! Both of our dogs are so well behaved now and they are happier and more confident with all of their new skills. Since initial training, our dogs have boarded there several times and they rush into the house with excitement when it’s time to be dropped off. Hilly truly loves our dogs and they love being with Hilly, which means the world to us!
