What they are saying about us

My golden retriever, Leo, is so excited when we pull up to Carolyn’s house! He starts wagging his tail and swiftly moving back and forth across the backseat of my car. He can’t wait to jump out and run to the front door, eager to play and to see Carolyn and her dog, Libby! I feel so comfortable and relaxed taking Leo over for the day to Carolyn’s house, knowing that he will be enjoying playing. I have even left him for a week when I have been out of town, and he is as happy as can be. I know he is treated like a part of her family. He is not caged. He runs, goes on walks, plays, eats, and naps. He does not stay for the day in a crate. He is free to enjoy being a dog in a friendly, playful environment. Carolyn will also work on training Leo while he is staying with her, and she has helped to communicate with me about how to help him follow the commands. Carolyn is kind, experienced, and deeply cares about each dog that she takes care of and trains. She is wonderful!

Carolyn Nussman, owner of PAWsitive Canine Coaching provides an exceptional level of service you rarely see these days. Traveling is no more a concern now that I know my pups, Houser and Gypsy are in Carolyn’s hands. In fact, they are just as at home boarding with Carolyn as they are at my house, because of her love and true passion caring for and training dogs. Gypsy, my shepherd mix was not the social butterfly when she was rescued, but through Carolyn’s patience, wisdom and expertise – she is no longer the timid wallflower she was. Thanks, Carolyn & PAWsitive Canine Coaching, for my complete peace of mind when I am away and for the best training in the DFW metroplex!!!

Carolyn has taken care of our precious Boston Terrier, Pouncy, many times. We love being able to go out of town knowing that she will be in such great hands! Pouncy sleeps with us at home, and we love that she gets to sleep with Carolyn as well! Carolyn is such a passionate, gifted trainer, and knows how to give great customer service. She at times, will even send pictures showing what our puppy is up to, which are really fun to get as well! It is an added bonus that Pouncy gets to run loose, play with a new friend and gets a bit of instruction just from being there with Carolyn. I highly recommend Carolyn for boarding and training! We will never have her stay at the vet in a crate again!!! You will have a fabulous experience with Pawsitive Canine Coaching, and your pooch/pooches will have a blast while you’re away! 🙂

My Basset Hound Max is my everything and anyone that knows me understands that leaving him with someone new is terrifying for me. I decided to use PAWSitive Canine Coaching for boarding for a short weekend instead of my usual friends. Carolyn was so welcoming, attentive and loving towards Max right away. He is extremely high maintenance (and stubborn) at 14 years old. His “special needs” require a lot of attention and patience. She updated me with pictures and said he was having a ball with the other dogs. She was around so much he didn’t even have one accident indoors which is amazing! I am absolutely impressed with how she handled the other dogs in her care all the while teaching them manners and rewarding good behavior. I will refer everyone to her for coaching and boarding and plan on using her again in two weeks. Consider your dog lucky to be in her hands.

Who says you can’t teach an old dog, new tricks, with Carolyn you can! My dogs are 4 and 8 and they have made great progress with Pawsitive Canine Coaching! Carolyn has helped us have our “babies” be better behaved when guests come and when they are out and about! Thanks Pawsitive Canine!

Carolyn has been such a great resource for us as a family of 4, AND 1st time dog owners. She takes each of our personalities and helps us use each of our strengths to best teach & nurture Pepper. Carolyn was very positive when coaching us as a family on how to interact with Pepper. She lets us be individuals but yet reinforces the basic rules of Consistency and Positive Reinforcement.

My dog Nash is always in great hands when going to PAWSitive Canine Coaching. The professionalism, friendliness, reliability and excellent care Carolyn provides for her customers makes her my first choice when looking for a dog sitter.
