Testimonials
Kelly was my trainer for my two pups "Rachel & Zeus". She was fantastic! Always looked forward to getting the report cards. Kelly is always responsive to any questions, and very informative! My dogs love her! It's wonderful that I can meet up with Kelly in case any situations arise. Thank you Kelly so much! I have totally much more well behaved dogs now. It is so wonderful! Can actually take them out and about and not have to worry about anything now.

Penny had a great 2 week board and train with trainer Kelly Whitescarver. I am super impressed with the training and the outcome. She was just turned over to me and I have been recommending this company to everyone I know since day 3 of her training. The daily report cards, pictures and videos are great.. Awesome company and great trainers. 10/10 would recommend. This is an investment for anyone who wants a rewarding relationship with their dog.

My trainer Kelly was phenomenal! She was informative, kept me informed and gave me tips before I picked up my Herman Shepherd “Sansa”. I chose training with Kelly as she was recommended by several coworkers and numerous positive reviews. She understands you are entrusted with your pet and she takes that responsibility seriously. Kelly fully understood that from my conversation with her prior to, during and post pick up. I could not be more pleased with how my dog turned out.

Kelly has helped my dog tremendously. She is an awesome trainer. Zoey was heeling in 3 minutes. Which is awesome. My Zoey is a GSH mix and a shelter dog who had a rough start.Kelly is her theirs trainer and is responding so well to the E Collar training. I highly recommend! It is definitely worth the time and money.

My rescue pup has fear aggression issues and Kelly did an amazing job helping him cope with his fears by not immediately lashing out when he feels scared. His response to commands was more than I had hoped for. I was amazed that our trainer Kelly was able to take him into a crowded place and walk him off leash without him wanting to eat anyone. Cant say enough good things about the work she does to help dogs. We will certainly use them again if and when we decide to adopt another pup. Thank you All for taking such good care of our dog Chase.

Kelly did an amazing job with our pups. We can now walk both of them in tandem without pulling or erratic behavior. Eli went for aggression and Stella went for basic obedience. Stella was very skittish and nervous, and would submissive pee a lot. And now she's gained all the confidence in the world. I would definitely recommend Kelly to anyone looking for professional dog training!
Bianca Arias
Kelly is an awesome trainer! She had our dogs attention and ours from the get go. Not only did Kelly do an amazing job training our dog in two short weeks, but she has generously contributed significant time working with us after the initial session to ensure our success. Above and beyond her training prowess, Kelly has an exceptionally engaging personality which allows her to work with differing dog owner personalities.

We sent our 6.5 yr old Pitt rescue for two weeks of training with Kelly. We could not have asked for better training. He listens and we take him everywhere with us. His trainer Kelly is the best!
