Training Cats and Dogs

We enjoyed working with Sharon for our retired racing greyhound, Rosie. Sharon helped show us how to teach Rosie basic house manners, and how to help with her leash walking. She has a positive and fun approach to training that worked well for us and Rosie :)

Sharon was a MASSIVE help with our 11-​month boy, Bronco. It’s not easy having a 50-​pound puppy living on a busy street in Manhattan. I work from home and have had quite a challenging learning curve getting to know my new dog and what he needs to stay happy. Sharon was recommended by our vet in Chelsea and she was extraordinarily responsive and extremely generous with her time. She made sure we were learning in a style that was effective for Bronco and he was very receptive of her style and technique. She provided additional guidance on appropriate treats, toys, and overall well-​being. Importantly, she taught me how to engage my puppy to play while also training — so that we could have fun together while working on commands. I am so grateful for our family’s time with Sharon! Truly life-​changing!

We contacted Sharon to help us with our two Scottish Fold kittens. We are first-​time pet owners, and though we did a good deal of research before we brought them home, we still couldn’t understand why one of our cats was acting so angrily, and had numerous questions about veterinarians, feeding, grooming, playing, and other kitten needs. We really wanted the best for our kittens. Sharon was wonderful with them, answered all of our questions, led us to sources for toys and feeding. She even sent us emails later with more helpful links. Sharon Mear is kind, professional and very knowledgeable. I recommend her highly!

we took training with Sharon for a lively pup with herding instincts from a rescue. Worked for us! Sharon also provided documentation on nutrition and other arenas. Sharon herself is «well trained“academically along with extraordinarily sound instincts and experience. We recommend her highly.
