Jamie is a high-energy trainer who motivated both me and my dog at every session. She and her mom were very involved in our progress; they make a wonderful, caring team.

Siouxsie and I both had a fantastic experience in our class. She learned so many new things and I learned how to better teach her. It was fantastic how Sarah was able to see what worked best for each dog and knew when to push them and when they needed a break. Our class has really sparked our Joy of working with agility and we can’t wait to learn more!
Erin S. with Siouxsie

This was a great experience for me and Porter. Sarah is terrific. She is patient and clearly cares for each dog. She worked with each owner/dog and catered the skill to his/her ability. My concern before starting the class was that Porter would be too afraid to try many of the lessons. Sarah assured me that every dog makes progress, even if it is just a little. She was right; Porter was able to accomplish things I never thought he would. It was wonderful to see him having fun and he was so proud…
Kimberly M. with Porter
So amazing. I can’t wait to take another class. I’ve always loved training and working with Sierra but after this freestyle class, I feel so much more motivation. I am so excited to take future classes there with Sierra!
Stephanie T. with Sierra
It was really good for Mowgli to be around dogs and lots of stimuli, but still practice sitting quietly and being patient. Of course, it was SO fun to have him do the obstacles as well and he seemed to pick them up quickly (though not necessarily execute them quickly haha).
Abby E. with Mowgli
Thanks so much for your work w/ Pork Chop. He has made great strides in his behavior in only three sessions with you, and I feel much more comfortable as a first-time dog owner now. Thanks so much!
Heidi S. with Pork Chop
I loved it. We are still improving our communication but Doggie Academy has helped us make huge strides. Plus, Ted LOVES it!
