    Todd is very knowledgeable in what he does. He always has an answer for any kind of question!
    I would recommend Bark Busters to anyone looking for a reliable and flexible service. Very respectful, kind and professional.

    Todd was fantastic! I highly recommend him if you are seeking help with your dog. In a matter of minutes being with us and our dog he was able to address the issues we had with nipping, jumping up, mouthing, and so much more. He was informative, professional and friendly and it was amazing to see that he relied on his knowledge rather than just treats. Definitely worth the money and he already has us booked in for a zoom call to see our progress and give any extra tips if needed. Again we highly recommend him to others having issues with their dog.

    Thank you Todd !!! 1 session with you and there is already a massive improvement in my boy.
    Being a spoodle he is highly active and gets too excited and likes to bark and jump. Now with one command he doesn’t bark, jump or try to escape thru the front door ! He is even relaxed now when visitors arrive ….. all that after 1 session ! I can’t wait to see what he’s like after a few more !!!
    Thanks again Todd !

    Todd from bark busters is genuine, accomodating and professional. He understands our challenges we are facing with a 14 week old puppy and a 19 month old toddler. That is why it so important for our family to get it right the first time with a dog training service.
    Todd from Bark Busters came highly recommended from our apartment neighbours, and from our very first appointment you could see why. Truely exceptional service!!
    Our puppy to dog training journey has just began, but with Todd from bark busters we already feel confident and getting incredible results. Thank you 🙏🙏 Todd !!

    After only one session we can not rate Todd from Bark Busters Illawarra highly enough. Our 5 month old Border Collie was driving us nuts with the constant nipping, escape attempts and food stealing. The strategies Todd gave us are simple but INCREDIBLY effective. I am still finding it hard to believe this is our dog. We were initially hesitant to sign up to a significant one off cost but we have absolutely no regrets. It would have taken us years and probably multiple rounds at dog school (which adds up), to achieve on our own what we have achieved with Todd in just a few short days. After seeing our dogs rapid progress, we probably would have been happy if the fee had covered only a single session but knowing the service guarantees lifetime care, we have no doubt it is cost effective. Todd is so knowledgeable, responsive and professional (there was not a single question or problem he didn’t have an answer or strategy for). Can’t wait for the rest of our Bark Busters journey and to see just how far our little Doggo can come.

    Todd is an amazing trainer! We had him come over for a re-visit over a year later as different challenges with Hunter arose, and within an hour, we saw Hunter’s behaviour improve! It gave us hope again that he can be around other dogs safely and feeling less anxious. Todd was quick to respond as always, and gave quality advice and support. This is by far the best dog training we have ever invested in, and we tried so many without seeing as great results like we do with Bark Busters! Thanks Todd 🙂

    Fantastic 1st lesson of training by Todd. He was able to come to the home and teach a few basic fundamentals for puppy training. Bert has really taken to what he learnt and so have we, Still a little way to go yet but positive so far! Thanks again Todd and look forward to working with you soon. Everything was explained clearly and Todd help us work thru what we needed to do for Bert to learn the skills he needs … How not to be the boss of the house at 6 months of age! 😀
    Thanks again! Highly recommend!

We are looking forward to the training journey ahead, knowing we have all the support & experience behind us that we need to have a calm household.

    I have worked with other trainers but never achieved the results I had hoped for.
    We still have a long way to go to be free of our separation anxiety issues but I feel at last we are making progress.

    There are no words. We were at the end of our ropes and contacted Todd who walked us through every step of the process, and made sure to offer us all our options, ensuring it was tailored to our situation. After only one session, we can already see an immense change in our dogs and we have hope for the first time in a long time. The value of this service is beyond belief, and the lifetime guarantee takes such a weight off our shoulders, knowing Todd is only a call away if we need any future help. Our pups absolutely adored Todd, and he was so patient, friendly and knowledgeable. We will be recommending his services to everyone we know!
