From our Clients...

When Sophie came in to my life, I was home full-time; we were together 24/7. However, I recently returned to work and was concerned about the amount of time she would be alone. Russ immediately put my mind at ease; knowing that Sophie was in, loving and responsible hands. My first week away from her was a bit of an adjustment period for both of us. She has since come to love her visits with Russ and has adjusted very well. It’s nice for me to know that she is cared for in my absence and after a long day of work I know that I don’t have to rush back outside to walk her. Our walks are for enjoyment now, a leisurely activity. Russ has been a blessing. The care that he provides is priceless.

Hi I'm Zeus! Russ and his team have become some of my very best friends! On the days my people need to be away for a while, I know that I can count on them to show up for a great play date. Sometimes we play Frisbee and Ball – Russ has a pretty good arm… and sometimes we go for a nice run around the neighborhood or both! They never leave without some nice petting and cuddling and without writing a note to my people telling them what a good boy I was! I’m a lucky dog to have Russ and the Pack Leader team in my life! P.S. My people said to add that Russ is incredibly flexible, reliable, professional and a great pleasure to work with. I guess they feel pretty lucky too…

We cannot say enough positive things about Russell and Pack Leader Pets! Our dog, Buddy, absolutely loves her walks and playtime with Russell. Russell's gentle demeanor and brisk walks are exactly what our energetic puppy needs. In addition, his professionalism is second to none. We highly recommend Pack Leader Pets to all of our friends. Our children would like to add: "Russell is awesome!" and "Russell is the best!"

Here is a picture of your satisfied customer, Cicely! She is a much happier "puppy" with you on the job. Thank you so much for all that you do for us. We would be lost without you!

Being first time puppy owners, we needed all the help and advice we could get on how to raise our boxer puppy, Otis. We always look forward to Russ’ notes he leaves us to see what Otis has done during his visit. What we like the most is that Russ would spend extra time with Otis if he can fit it into his busy schedule. We were also looking into puppy training lessons and the best is that Russ provided private obedience lessons right at our own home. Russ came over weekly and had homework assignments ready for us. Thank you Russ for doing a fantastic job and being flexible! We will refer Pack Leader to our family, friends and any dog owner we meet.

Being first time puppy owners, my husband and I needed all the help and advice we could get on how to raise our golden retriever Sophie. We looked into signing her up for group obedience classes, but we ended up finding the Pack Leader website and were delighted to see that they offered private obedience lessons, and we were able to have these classes right in our home! On day one of the course, Russ came over with a folder full of lesson plans and information on training, along with our weekly homework assignments. He taught us the basic commands such as sit, down, recall, and loose leash walking. We also learned to do touch, stay, leave it, drop, and he provided us with a lot of tips and advice along the way. He really spent a lot of time with Sophie, and on one night when she passed out half way through our lesson, he came by the next night to finish it! He was absolutely wonderful with her! This has been a great learning experience for both us and for Sophie. After 7 weeks of classes, we have a much better trained puppy and we plan to continue the exercises that Russ has taught us throughout her first year. Thank you Russ for doing such a wonderful job! We will be sure to refer Pack Leader to our family and friends.
