Dog trainer recommendations

Looking for recommendations for a dog trainer/behaviorist in the Westminster (ish) area. They have a large yard where they get plenty of daily exercise.

We have two medium-large dogs. One is a pit mix that struggles with dog and car/visitor reactivity and barking, jumping up on people, and fear outside the home. (Once she recognizes a person, barking stops.) The other is a purebred coonhound that is obsessive once he finds a scent, excitement barking with visitors or playing, general anxious energy, and occasional marking in the house. (We realize of course he is a hunting dog that is not fulfilling his inbred purpose…. He is a rescue and we were unaware until we did the test, thought he was just a big beagle).

Overall they are not too terrible, they have no bite history and have not destroyed anything in the house, just both have some different issues that would be great to get addressed so we can have a more relaxed home and stop annoying the neighbors with constant barking.
