Bark Busters Reviews and Customer Testimonials

9th October 2026 - Catharina Jeffery

Catharina dealt with Barking, Chewing, Digging, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall

We cannot recommend Cat highly enough! I called Cat out of desperation with a 9 month old German Shepherd whose barking was getting out of control, he still mouthed and jumped up on people, so much so that our little ones didn’t feel confident being outside with him. I was skeptical about the ‘no treat and no punishment’ approach but I can honestly say, he was a different dog after the first session. Cat is calm and confident and great at communicating techniques on how to set good boundaries using and understanding canine communication. You literally have to see it to believe it. Results were instantaneous. We have been practicing the techniques since her initial session and still making progress. Cat is on the phone if you have any questions and she ensures timely follow up to ensure changes are sustainable. We have some other goals we want to work on down the track, and know we have Cat’s support when we’re ready. Worth every cent! Thanks Cat

Trainer note from Catharina
It was so great to meet you and Duke, he is such a lovely boy, and I know he will be a great family dog for you. It was wonderful to see him respond to you so well (and the kids!) in your first lesson, and I know he will continue to kick goals as he matures! Looking forward to seeing your progress at your next lesson...

Catharina dealt with Chewing, Jumping up, Pulling, Recall, Sibling rivalry

Awesome service that suited us. One on one in home was great as the whole family could undertake training. Also, reduced the stress of being in an unfamiliar environment with a new dog.

Trainer note from Catharina
It was great to help you with your newly rescued dog, Curly (7 month old Jack Russell x Staffy). It can be a a stressful time for them with changes in environments and being in kennels to then coming to a new home. It was lovely to hear your update that you had noticed she was calmer over all and listening to you. I look forward to seeing her improvements at your next lesson.

Catharina dealt with Aggression

Cat change our lives as dog owners for the better. My partner and I were virtually in tears during the first session as we could see the positive impact that it would have on our relationship with our beautiful rescue American Staffy. He has come such an incredibly long way since the very first interaction with Cat and the wealth of knowledge she provided us. We are so grateful for Cat's time and patience with us and our boy Lu. Highly recommend her services!

- V.M, Witchcliffe (Testimonial)

Trainer note from Catharina
Thank you so much for leaving a review Victoria. It was great to see the change in Lu (7yo male American Staffy) and how his dog aggression could be overcome as you worked on his training plan with him. It is great to hear that he has maintained the positive results after your move as well. Awesome work guys!
