I have to say I'm ABSOLUTELY AMAZED at Melissa:s ability to work with dogs and at first I had many doubts but when I seen it was fascinating she really is like a dog whisperer and btw my dog is a XL pitbull that was abused and she had no problems no doubt I would never trust anyone else thank you Melissa so much!

Melissa came into our home to help us with our 2 dogs adjusting to our newborn baby. We are only 1 session in but we see a great deal of progress already. Her confidence and expertise definitely shows. She has been very personable and we appreciate her work.

Melissa did an excellent job addressing some anxiety issues with my mom’s dog. The dog is very attached to my mom and she had trouble leaving the house. Melissa helped by teaching techniques to help ease the dog’s anxiety, calming him down and making it easier for my mom to leave the house. We are very thankful for her help and would recommend her services.

, here's a 5-star review for "Helping Paw," highlighting melissa exceptional service and attention to detail: From the moment we connected with Helping Paw, and especially with melissa, the owner, we knew we had found something truly special for our furry family member. This isn't just an animal obedience business; it's a place where patience, understanding, and a genuine love for animals shine through in every interaction. We initially sought help with basic obedience for our energetic young Labrador, and Milasasa's approach was nothing short of transformative. She took the time to thoroughly understand our dog's personality, our lifestyle, and our specific goals. It wasn't a one-size-fits-all program; it was a tailored experience that addressed our dog's individual needs and our concerns as owners. Helping Paw offers a comprehensive range of services that any pet owner would find invaluable. Whether you're looking for puppy socialization classes to build a confident and well-adjusted companion, basic obedience training to establish clear communication, or more advanced behavioral modification for specific challenges melissa has the expertise and dedication to guide you. She also offers helpful resources and ongoing support to ensure lasting success long after the formal training sessions conclude. What truly sets Melissa apart is her remarkable attention to detail. Every aspect of her training philosophy demonstrates a deep understanding of animal behavior and learning. She meticulously explained the reasoning behind each technique, ensuring we felt confident in implementing them at home. We were particularly impressed by her focus on positive reinforcement methods, creating a fun and engaging learning environment for our dog. She noticed even the subtlest cues in our dog's behavior, adapting her approach as needed to ensure he was comfortable and making progress. Beyond the training itself, melissa fostered a sense of partnership. She was always available to answer our questions, offer encouragement, and celebrate our successes, no matter how small. Her passion for helping animals and their owners build strong, positive relationships is evident in everything she does. If you're looking for an animal obedience business that goes above and beyond, with an owner who is truly invested in your pet's well-being and your success, look no further than Helping Paw and the incredible Milasasa. We wholeheartedly recommend their services!

Melissa is the dog-whisperer as far as I'm concerned. It's very clear she knows what she's doing. We really enjoyed her methods, especially using treats only very sparingly, focusing on positive reinforcement. Our rescue pup responded to Melissa's training very well, much better than we could do on our own. She was wonderful and very kind and passionate about her business. Highly recommend to anyone with a dog that needs some guidance
