Locally owned and operated in the heart of Sonoma County. I have been dog training for 20 years and love working with dogs and people. I believe in being fair to the dog and have clear communication with the dog. Most problems start in the home.

Dog Training
Marie took such great care of my dog Coco. She trained her all the basics plus crate training, being w other dogs and calm around cats! Would totally recommend Marie and looking forward to utilizing her in the future. More...

Lola is a sweet dog with alot of energy. I am glad we found a way to work together to get her to settle down more.
Doris Constant
Marie is the consummate professional. She takes the time to evaluate both the dog and the owner to establish the correct course of training. As I learned, it is mostly the people who need training the most! Consistency is the key and Marie is the Key Master! Thanks Marie for helping to make my rambunctious rescue pup a much better citizen and making me a much better dog mom. More...

Gigi
I have a well behaved young dog because of the training we received at Perfect Pooch Performance. She trained the dog, then she showed me how to handle her. And, I feel 100% comfortable when I leave my dog in her care. More...

Marie was highly competent in dealing with my Bill Mastiff Critter. He is our sweet baby boy! She also was able to handle myself and husband with firm kid gloves! We are one happy family now.

Critter is a gentle giant and just needed to learn some boundaries. It was a joy to watch how his training evolved to allow you to have a happy home with him.
