Kristie was amazing when working with Bella and our family. We saw instant changes in Bella’s behaviour during and after the training. The training was explained so well and made so much sense. It was practical and easy to implement. Kristie involved the whole family so we were all on the same page. I would recommend Kristie to anyone who is in need of training their dog. Thank you, you have made such a difference to our family.

Kristie dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up, Sibling rivalry, Toileting
Kristie was absolutely amazing with great knowledge and communication, as Cleo showed immediate response to the training after the first lesson. The lesson was very thorough with easy to understand information and manageable skills to use. We've noticed such big changes and feel so relieved as Cleo has responded well to the training techniques. Thanks to Kristie we feel less stressed and am looking forward to a calm and behaved dog. We highly recommend Bark busters for anyone needing assistance with their furbaby.
Trainer note from Kristie
Thanks Maria. It all came down to you and how quickly you took all the information and training tips on. Cleo is such an amazing little girl that just needed a little guidance and to know that you were the leader and could take care of her and let her be a calm and relaxed puppy. I am looking forward to our next lesson and to see all the progress that Cleo has made.

We were desperate. Our little 11 week old Trixie was really testing us and unfortunately there is so much conflicting information out there and it seemed that not much was working. What I had used previously with my puppies, just wasn't working and I was feeling really helpless. In our first lesson we learnt how to modify some basic things and instantly we saw results. We still have quite a long way to go, but I feel more hopeful now that I can call on someone to guide me through the process.

Kristie dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Jumping up
I reached out to Kristie from Burk Busters to assist my client to implement dog training skills to better address some concerns such as hyperactivity and barking. We met with Kristie at the client's residence, and she was very organised and prepared. Kristie provided great advise on-site and lesson notes which were easy to read and follow. Kristie was very passionate about her work, and we highly recommend Kristie to our friends and family.

Kristie dealt with Jumping up, Recall, Separation anxiety
Kristie was great. We have a young daughter so fitting in time was challenging, but she worked within our time frame. And even worked around our baby during the lesson.
One of our fears was our dog would lose her sweetness/affection during this process. But Kristie was excellent at alleviating our fears, explaining all the techniques and she was a caring dog trainer/owner herself, which really showed.

I recently had Kristie come over to help with my 13-week-old Samoyed puppy, Benji. We were dealing with all the usual puppy issues - jumping, barking, nipping, crate training, you name it. I realised I needed a professional to ensure I was training him right for the future.
Kristie was incredibly professional, kind, and approachable. You can instantly tell that she’s not only highly knowledgeable about dogs but also genuinely passionate about what she does.
Within just 20 minutes of her being in the house, I noticed a drastic improvement in Benji’s behaviour. Throughout the session, Kristie walked me through every step, showing me practical solutions to each problem I had. No matter what I asked, she had a clear, helpful answer.
If you're looking for someone to help you train your puppy the right way, I highly recommend Kristie. I was skeptical at first, but now I know that bringing her in was the best decision I could've made for Benji’s training and future.

Kristie is absolutely fantastic!! My 1 year old Aussie Shepherd is going through his teenage years and we needed some guidance. After doing some research we had our first lesson with Kristie a week ago. Best decision ever! Kristie genuinely cares for your animal and has a gentle approach to training! Zeke has been very responsive both in our home and on walks. It has been a very promising few days and we hope to continue his training even further
10/10 would highly recommend Kristie !!

Kristie dealt with Barking, Hyperactivity, Sibling rivalry
Kristie has been wonderful, we are at the beginning of our journey but so far it’s been really eye opening (in a good way). I’ve learnt a lot and Kristie has been really understanding of the complexity surrounding my dog. I’ve seen a marked improvement after one session and look forward to continued practice and training to give my dog a healthier and happier lifestyle. Thank you!
