K9s Place offers comprehensive dog training programs including Board & Train, Day Train, Private Lessons, Puppy Play & Learn (PAL), and Pack Walks.

These programs include post-training support like at-home sessions, daycare days, and pack walks.

Private lessons provide one-on-one instruction tailored to specific behavioral issues. Day training allows dogs to receive focused training during the day without overnight stays.

Testimonials

“I stumbled upon K9 Place when I was in a desperate search to find boarding for my dog during the Memorial Day holiday weekend. It just so happens I live 5 minutes away! From the moment they took my initial call to dropping my dog off, I felt so comfortable with all the amazing staff. They treat my dog as if he was their own. He is so much more confident around other dogs and people now! I would 100% recommend K9 Place to everyone! The staff is so professional and kind. I try to send him weekly if I can!”

“I recently been doing private training sessions and weekly pack walks with Trevor and his staff at K9s Place in Melbourne FL, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the first session, Trevor demonstrated an incredible understanding of canine behavior, coupled with a warm and engaging approach that both my dog and I instantly connected with. The private training sessions were tailored to our specific needs, focusing on obedience and behavior modification that made a noticeable difference from day one. Trevor’s techniques are not only effective but also humane and kind, always emphasizing reinforcement.”

The owner and staff are great and the prices a very reasonable. Their two week board and train program is amazing. I am so happy I found this place and I completely trust them with my Daisy girl.”
