From the time Stef entered our home, she provided us with advice about how to address Naala's behaviour (mainly barking). She was so patient and informative in our initial session and we started to see immediate (positive) changes in Naala. Another problem was Naala's walking, which was also addressed during the first session and I am so happy with her progress. She now walks on a loose lead consistently! Although Naala still does have a few things to improve, she has come a long way since our first session. Seeing so much progress since her first session is fantastic!

We are first-time dog owners. We have had the three initial lessons and one recently about something that arose with changing circumstances in our household. We have been very heartened by the training which gave us a consistent and well thought-through strategy for every area that was causing us difficulty and has put us in control. It made an obvious difference in the dog's demeanor. He was much calmer (as were we!) and we were able to begin to really enjoy him. We really like the fact that the owner signs up for the life of the dog. Stefanie is very accommodating and positive. She obviously loves her work and cares about the animals she works with.

The first session was great! Very detailed and informative. It was easy to understand and we started to see progress already in the first session.

When we met Stefanie for the first time she was very kind, friendly and very understanding with our concerns and needs with our new companion TITAN who we adopted recently from the SECOND CHANCE ANIMAL RESCUE 🐶. . Stefanie gave us a fabulous insight in to how we should treat and understand TITAN 🐶, meaning as humans trying to teach him the human ways, & not just his basic K-9 behaviour. Our Family time spending with TITAN 🐶: walking has been sooo enjoyable and relaxing compare to when we first had him we struggled to get him to walk beside us as he was always tugging. In one session with our TITAN 🐶: Stefanie has given us a system that works and benefits for all my family.. Thank you Stefanie for your time and understanding, am sooooo Greatful. .#TEAMTITAN

Stef has been amazing with my puppy staffy Dakota! I first met Stef when I was fostering dogs and when she got adopted, a few months later I got a pup of my own I didn’t think twice about calling Stef at Bark Busters! Her guidance and advice has helped me improve my 6 month old jumping, door control, assertiveness and walking on the lead right beside me! From pulling on the lead and giving me rope burn (them Staffies are strong!!) during our walks I now enjoy walking my excitable pup!

Very happy with the progress after only 1 lesson. Stefanie was great!

Stef was wonderful. Very patient and clear in explaining the process. Was very impressed with how quickly my 9 year old Labrador was picking up the new commands. She has been very helpful with both his listening skills (which needed improvement) and assisted in the introduction of him to our new kitten.

Stefanie was very clear in her instructions & requirements of myself and my dog. She was very easy to talk to honestly regarding any concerns I have with my dog or the training. I look forward to further training Inka with the tools and skills Stefanie gave me to further improve my dogs separation anxiety.

We were pleased with the training techniques used by Bark Busters and would recommend them.

Stefanie was very friendly and made us feel completely comfortable with training our beautiful Sophie from the first few minutes of our first consultation. The training was clear, concise, easy to follow & Stefanie displayed so much patience ensuring that we understood each component before moving onto the next. Sophie has responded to the training techniques so well & we have noticed vast improvements within a short time frame. My only regret is not booking a training session with Bark Busters much earlier!

The training was clear and introduced a new way of looking at our dog's behaviour and how we deal with the behaviours we wish to reduce. The BARF diet was explained and we are moving across to this way of feeding the dog. He already looks more lean and healthier.

Stefanie was very clear with the training process and techniques from the very beginning and explained it so both myself (First time training a dog / Hank) and my partner (Trained Hank before) understood. I Absolutely LOVE that she didn't use treats or any aggression towards the dog as a training technique and rather used our voices which Hank reacted instantly too! Within the fist lesson you could already tell the change in Hank, he was listening to us and we could already call him off possums which was a BIG deal for us. He now patiently waits at doors for us to ask him in and out, he doesn't pull or growl / bark when another dog walks past him. He LISTENS to us! We cannot recommend Stef and Bark Busters enough, so much so that we are using Stef for our new puppy Nala.
