Michael's Pack Dog Training Center

Nikki was our trainer. She worked with us for two months. She is very punctual with her visits and is a very good communicator in person and over text. The lessons never seemed rushed. I highly recommend her. We have two pugs from the same litter, so there’s a bit of litter syndrome there. Since we started working with her, the dogs are doing much better. The techniques she taught us really helped calm the dogs because they are overly active. They are barking less and their distraction levels are getting better. They are almost house trained, and they can sit, come and lay down. They are definitely on the right track because of Nikki.

My rescue dog, Lexie, and I train with Nikki and OMG I am so lucky that she is Lexie’s trainer. We started up about over a year ago now with Nikki when Lexie was around 7 months old. Lexie was a pretty easy to train dog at first, she is naturally very calm-tempered and Nikki taught me great techniques to further help socialize and calm her down from puppy overstimulation and excitement the first few months. Let me begin by saying Nikki is probably the best dog trainer I have ever heard of, worked with, or seen. She is creative, compassionate, understanding, accommodating, very intelligent and knowledgeable, supportive, easy to work with. just all the greatest adjectives you could think of that associate with dog trainers. Her techniques are some I really have never seen before in typical

Nikki is the best! As a first time dog owner she helped me a lot with understanding his needs and pinpointing his issues. Cashew has become less reactive to other dogs on leashes and we are working on separation anxiety now! Nikki is always there when I have questions and super responsive and always eager to help me and Cashew! Nikki has made myself and my dog a lot more confident in each other!

Nikki is an amazing dog trainer. Bob is our baby and we are very selective in who gets to work with him. Nikki is creative, positive, and encouraging, and most importantly is supportive of dog owners in learning to understand their pet. Bob loves her and is always excited to complete his training exercises. He is not perfect but he’s learning and improving every day. He gives Nikki two paws up.

Nicole is absolutely fantastic! From the very first session, she made both me and my dog feel comfortable and confident. She has a calm, patient approach and really takes the time to explain not just the “how,” but also the “why” behind each technique. What I appreciated most is that Nicole tailored the training to fit my dog’s personality and my lifestyle, so everything felt practical and easy to keep up with. She clearly loves what she does, and her passion shows through in the results. If you’re looking for a trainer who is knowledgeable, professional, and truly cares, I couldn’t recommend Nicole enough.
