Susan was great with me and my older dog. I had a few big life changes recently, including a big move and my 9 1/2 year old Shiba Inu was having a rough time. Susan helped me with him, getting him to refocus his energy. She was a pleasure to work with, knowledgeable and personable. I highly recommend Heart Pet Care!!!

Susan is very professional and listened to our family's needs. We are training our Bullmastiff to be a service dog for special needs child. Bella loves her. Looking forward to continued training/boarding with her.

Susan is just outstanding with the way she works with dogs. She is always focused on the actual problem and helps to solve it!

When we got our puppy, one of our best decisions was to sign up for Illuminado Dog Training. We were happy to find the program to be customizable to our schedule and lifestyle needs. Having the trainer come to our home a few times a week gave us the opportunity to learn in small steps, reinforcing each step before taking the next. It also allowed us to quickly verify and validate what we learned. With two of us learning to train our puppy, we did not always agree on what we thought the trainer had advised. Having the trainer stop by every few days allowed us to check out what she said and ensure we were handling our puppy’s training consistently. Also, having the training in our home allowed the trainer to see and evaluate what would work best for us in our environment. We’re happy to say we could not be more pleased with the results. Thank you Illuminado! Our happy (now well-behaved) puppy thanks you, too!!!

Susan is very flexible and great to work with. She holds dog and owner accountable. I'm really impressed with the progress my puppy has made to learn all the right behaviors.
