Macatawa Dog Training

Erin does a supreme job on nails. She trimmed and dremmeled pups nails so nice they are actually smooth! Will be bringing my other dogs to her also.

I started bringing my dog, Willow, to private training sessions with Erin to help with her fear of strangers and new people. Since beginning training, Willow has gained so much confidence, learned new commands, and become noticeably more comfortable in unfamiliar situations. I've received several comments from others about how much she's improved. At her most recent grooming appointment, the groomer said it was the best she's ever done and that the training has clearly paid off. I also work at a group home and bring Willow with me. We frequently have new faces coming in and out of the house. She's now much more relaxed when the residents’ guardians or anyone else stops by. Training with Erin has made a remarkable difference for Willow and for everyone who interacts with her.

Not only is Erin the best trainer ever, but Evia is such a wonderful groomer. She does an excellent job on our mini poodle with whatever haircut we throw at her that month. Macatawa Dog Training has all the services; grooming, daycare, training (group and private classes), puppy socials, etc. and I recommend each one! Erin is an absolute pleasure to work with and you can tell she really cares about each and every dog she sees. Plus, she’s one of the few daycares open on weekends now!

Our 4 year old Poochi Angel acted like a terror in public, would not leash walk properly, had aggression issues around people, the list goes on. In just 4 one-one-one classes with Erin, Angel is starting to behave like an angel! With Erin's guidance and training, Angel is more obedient and for the first time in our lives walked in public like a well behaved dog around people and pets! It was incredible. I cannot thank Erin and Macatawa Dog Training enough for all the positive growth our fur baby has had so quickly and highly recommend them!

When we brought home our puppy Erin is who we called. Since then she’s been our trainer, we’ve done some classes and now we love sending our dog to her daycare. She knows dogs better than anyone I’ve met, she shows kindness to us as owners (it’s actually us she’s training!) and runs some amazing programs. Her staff is exceptional as well. also being able to participate in daycare and have A+ grooming as an option at the same location is awesome!! I can’t imagine owning a dog without her.
