Sparky's Comrade - Toronto Dog TRAIN+WALK

I was beyond impressed with Nicole’s knowledge and expertise, especially when it comes to fearful dogs. Our French bulldog was resource guarding and biting and we were feeling pretty hopeless when we reached out to Nicole. She was so positive and solution focused and helped our family understand our dog’s behavior as well as taught us positive reinforcement training techniques that have really helped. I can’t recommend Sparks’s Comrade enough!

Nicole has been working with Brooklyn for almost 6 years! And she has become Brook's second mom! I have never met someone like Nicole, she is driven, professional and fun. Brooklyn has the best time when she's with the Sparky's crew I often feel she doesn't want to come home. I recommend Nicole to everyone I meet who has a pup. Brooklyn is the MOST important in my life and I wouldn't trust anyone else to watch her. Nicole you are amazing, thank you for everything you do!Paul & Brooklyn

My life saver.I have an extremely anxious rescue chihuahua and Nicole has gone above and beyond to try to reach him. I swear, I cried the first day he was excited to put his sweater on and go for a walk. Nicole is amazing and I can't recommend her enough.

Nicole was absolutely amazing with our dog! Beyond her expertise, she is always extremely professional and always willing to give advice to us even after we finished our programming. I would happily use the services again and would recommend her to anyone seeking an educated, ethical dog trainer.

Nicole has been instrumental in helping our dog adjust to living in the city and dealing with a new baby at home. Her training walks, in home training, and virtual sessions have all been such a massive help. She's been our go to for every behavioural challenge we've had over the years, and her level of knowledge and approach to training is something we deeply appreciate. Our dog wouldn't be as well adjusted as she is today without Nicole and her team.

Nicole is awesome! Her business savvy provides for a very seamless operation. Her attention to detail- daily notes and prompt emails when there are any changes make for very happy pet “parents”. And, most importantly our dog loves her! Nicole’s caring and disciplined approach to her daily walks make a for a very happy dog.

Nicole has been amazing with our dog! She's been with us since Andi was a puppy and Andi loves her! She has provided with a lot of valuable information and tips over the years! I trust Nicole and highly recommend her!

Nicole has such a wonderful attitude and depth of expertise - she’s a rock star! Love working with her and our pup does too.

I highly recommend Nicole and her amazing walker Cathy. They have transformed a terrified, anti social rescue chihuahua into a confident, excited, and playful dog! Nicole has an amazing ability to match dogs with other dog friends who are similar in temperament and personality. I can't talk highly enough about this company and their staff.

Nicole (and her services) are absolutely amazing. Highly recommend to any dog owner that is looking to build a strong relationship with their dog and set them up for success in life!We have an adolescent bully who needed to work on manners, recall, and focus - he’s a smart and friendly dog but as a pandemic pup needed some extra help to lock it in, and build confidence for both him and us in every situation.We signed up with a “walk and train” program - 3 days a week plus a virtual homework session, where Nicole taught us the important mechanics on HOW to train - after countless YouTube videos we felt like we were still missing something… and that was Nicole!Not only is Rudy leaps and bounds more obedient and eager to learn, but our work with her reinstilled our confidence in him and our training. As a bully he will always face a stigma and so it’s imperative that he be an ambassador for the breed.I really can’t recommend this service enough - qualified and professional yet also a ton of fun for all of us. Her transfer of skills program for other dog walkers and people involved with your dog is a huge bonus, and the videos and homework sheets have been an incredible help for us to continue to reinforce training.
