The first time I met Heather was when she was evaluating my dog, Nova’s, behavior. Nova struggled with human/dog reactivity. I was immediately blown away by the amount of knowledge Heather had. The thing that impressed me most, was that she told me she did not need to watch my dog perform bad behavior in order to see the areas that needed work. Heather provided me with the proper tools that I needed to advocate for my dog. Heather is a wonderful dog trainer, and its a joy to be around her. She gives off such a positive energy!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We couldn’t be happier with Project K9 and Heather’s incredible care! From the detailed questionnaire to the meet-and-greet with a trial daycare, the entire process made us feel confident that our boys were in the best hands. Heather’s clear communication and deep understanding of breed-specific needs and boundaries stood out—especially with our three dogs, who have strong and very different personalities. As sitters ourselves, we truly value her structured yet compassionate approach. We’re excited for our boys to become regulars at daycare and highly recommend Project K9 to anyone looking for a professional, thoughtful, and skilled sitter! 🐾

So thankful for Project K9! My dog is listening to me and behaving, my anxiety has diminished. I no longer have to worry about him going after other dogs while on walks and it feels great! He’s much more calm.

Heather is an excellent trainer and human being! She definitely customized the experience to our needs and wants. We understand our dog more on how he communicates because of her help. And our relationship with our dog is even better. We are newer dog owners so she cleared up so many things for us on what to look for in different situations, allergies, good quality food, the best shape for his nails, so he can be as happy/healthy as possible. Thanks Heather!

We loved working with Project K9 and our doodle dog, Sophie. We learned so much about how to train her, and how to help her to be a fun member of our family. She walks well on a leash and we enjoy playing with her off leash. Heather was really great to watch us and our son and work with us individually as we learned how to teach Sophie. We had in person and virtual lessons and they have all been great. We highly recommend Project K9.

I was having a massive problem with my dog jumping my fence to go after other dogs and being unable to take him out of my yard without both of us having a meltdown. I found Heather through a dog group online and when I found out she was in southern UT, I was sold! She helped me learn how to help my dog exist peacefully in the world and how I can advocate for him to keep him comfortable! We even went off leash (after MONTHS of training and prepping for it) for the first time ever last week!
