Testimonials

“Kelsy is an excellent trainer and really cares for your dog. We also board our Australian Shepherd there whenever we go away. It’s great to see photos and videos of her enjoying her time “at camp”! It makes us feel like we never left.”
-Chip Hurd, Millie’s Human

“I recently sent my 11-month old Australian Shepherd (named Malibu) to Kelsy’s one-week board and train program and she came back a brand new dog. I suggest Kelsy to anybody that is looking to improve their dogs behavior. 10/10 service!”
-Sydney Stelz, Malibu’s Human

“Bailey was a scardy cat, it was hard to go out with her as she was always pulling me. After 2 weeks, my Bailey is doing amazing. She responds to commands with no more pulling, and she seems more confident, allowing people to approach her and touch her. I am very happy with the results!”
-Milquely Santana, Bailey’s Human
