Testimonials
“Maddy has been so awesome from day one! She has worked with me with a high level of professionalism and patience. She has helped build both of our confidence and provided insight and problem solving to some unique challenges!”
Jesse W.
“Maddy has been so great! Our dog is definitely a “slow to warm” kind of guy and Maddy keeps limited numbers of clients for daycare and boarding on a given day so she is able to give all dogs the attention and care they need. We’re so happy we found her! And she takes the best glamor shots :).”
Diana D.
“We took our German Shepard puppy to Madelyn and she does amazing work! Our puppy is so well behaved and gets complements everywhere we go! … All at a very affordable price. I would recommend anyone who has a puppy or dog to try Life with Paws and see what a difference it makes.”
Bridgett T.
“We took our 1 year old Ridgeback to Madelyn for a 10 day board and train and it worked out great! … they worked on his tricky reactivity and she asked beforehand what we specifically wanted them to work on. When we got home Franklin seemed a lot calmer than when we have just boarded him before. We will be continuing to work with Madelyn for training and boarding!”
