“I have had the wonderful privilege to work with Gari. She was absolutely amazing in giving me directions and helping me learn what I needed to do. She had a perfect delivery of her voice and gave easy to understand instructions, how to read my dog’s responses and what to do. It turned something dramatic into something easy and worry free. I highly recommend Gari to anyone with pet issues!” – Steve and Blue, Boynton Beach, Florida
