Clients Say…

Sarah was an awesome instructor. She made learning fun & it was a great experience for me & my puppy. We’d highly recommend her & hope to take more classes with her in the future.

online dog training
I was a little nervous about trying to do dog training via ZOOM, but was surprised at how well it worked. I had a full room-size view of Lizzie and her dog Phin and she could see me and Maya very well. It was also very helpful to see her working with her own dog.

Williamsburg dog training
Sarah was wonderful. She was timely, friendly and Mufasa seemed to love her! We really appreciated her thoughtful approach and willingness to talk about anything we threw at her.. and we threw out a lot 😉

corgi puppy
Franklin is my first dog, and this experience was our first puppy social. I expected all of the puppies to just play together the whole time, but I had learned so much in that hour observing the puppies being shy and on different social/energy levels. Patrick did a fantastic job moderating and spending time focusing on each puppy. He brought to our attention an important lesson to train our Franklin and gave great advice.

duck tolling retriever
Very pleased with our experience at Doggie Academy. Reilly clearly enjoys it. It’s fun to see that he’s an eager learner and it’s great exercise for him physically and mentally. Sarah sized up Reilly right away and gave specific suggestions for training our speedster.
Sharon S. with Reilly
dog obedience
We first heard about Doggie Academy from the Internet. Once we had a session with Kate, though, we were hooked. She has such a positive, upbeat attitude, and offers helpful tips for improving our life with Wicket (within the practical realm of what we and Wicket are able to achieve). Unlike other trainers we had worked with previously, Kate is not judgmental, listens carefully, and does not try to rush things. She gives thorough advice, feedback, and (of course) Wicket loves her.
