Client Testimonials

  • Charlie & Sunny

    Charlie and Sunny have been a team since Charlie was 5. In the beginning, we had simply hoped Sunny would help him through times of disregulation. But she has far exceeded those expectations. Sunny has helped Charlie in countless ways over the years, it has been beautiful to watch and unfold. 


    Sunny does several tasks for Charlie including deep pressure therapy, block, traction forward walking, and redirecting self harm. She has also given him confidence, pride , and independence. We have been able to do so much more together as a family than we ever could have imagined. We are all so grateful for Sunny.

  • Zach & Bosco

    In May of 2022, Zach’s service dog, Bosco, arrived from Phoenix, Arizona. Bosco has been specialty trained over the last year in preparation to meet Zach’s needs. He’s helped his balance and stability support as well as helping with his visual impairments.

    It has been a game changer for Zach. Who would have thought a service dog could impact a person’s life in so many positive ways? Zach has more confidence now getting back out into his community since his illness.

    Within the first few weeks, Zach was able to overcome things such as taking outdoor walks, going to restaurants, and going to the movies - which were all huge wins for our family. Bosco is such an incredible dog and we are excited to see what’s ahead for Zach and Bosco. They are best buddies in the making for sure!

  • Tara & Lev

    Mike gave me hope and a new life via training Lev to be my service dog. Initially, Lev helped me get around our house more independently; then we started going on walks; eventually, we even went on long walks every day.

    He’s broken my falls on numerous occasions. His “brace” task lets me take breaks to literally lean on Lev; “brace” also helps with stairs, my balance, and sudden onset weakness. Lev’s DPT helps both with intense pain/symptoms, and pots, as well as calming my body amidst a medical crisis.

    Going from practically bed-bound to, last year, flying for the first time in around 15 years to go to Hawaii with my family, Lev has gifted me life - freedom. I started an Etsy shop and have been able to socialize and explore more. He is my best friend, makes me laugh and smile always. He knows me, he’s my hero. Thanks to him, I have a life!
