UpSwing Canine Behavioral Services - Fetch & Fable

5/5 stars and more with Rachel! We had a very serious situation with our dogs and she swooped in to help us and save the day for our family. She's understanding, non-judgmental and very experienced and great at giving the humans the tools necessary to help their pets. She has a knowledge of dogs that most likely 100% of the human race does not and she relates to dogs on an unparalleled level. We'd very highly recommend Rachel to anyone with a canine issue. She's like the Superwoman of canines!!! Mike and Amanda Farina

Rachel has been an absolute godsend to our family, for our pups and for us. We've had our 2 year old rescue since she was a puppy, and she's always struggled with over arousal and hyperactivity. Once she hit adolescence, it got worse because she started to redirect onto one of our other two pups and start altercations. We were really struggling, and from the very first session, Rachel has been amazing. She is supportive, beyond knowledgeable, and truly cares about our dogs and us, and helping all of us to succeed. So many places offer just "obedience" and use outdated methods and aversive techniques and tools that would only increase the issues we were dealing with. Rachel is a positive method behavioral trainer that helps our dogs learn to make the right decisions by their own choic

Rachel is amazing! She helped me connect better with our deaf rescue dog and helped train our two pups to be much more pleasant to walk together! I no longer get tied in a knot or pulled in different directions when taking them out now! She had also been great with answering all of my crazy questions or concerns. I can't recommend her enough!

Rachel is incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to animal behavior, whether that be dog, cat, or bird. She is kind and will listen and work with her clients to find the best solution for the animal and household, unlike many trainers in the area who just throw shock collars at all their clients. She assisted with my fearful, anxiety-ridden, high energy dog who adores her. I would recommend Rachel to anyone who is looking for help with basic training and getting to know their dog as well as those with difficult behavior cases that many other trainers won't touch. A+++

A friend from work recommended Upswing to train our rescue pup. He was extremely reactive, nervous, and unsocialized. Rachel's approach to training is very holistic and focuses on giving our good boy coping skills to better manage new people, traveling, and being left alone. No shocking. A lot of positive reinforcement. She taught us how to teach him and that has been the best for his continued success. Highly recommend Upswing.
