I recently had a call with Andrea regarding my dog, and trying to rectify some of his behavior. What I didn't expect to get on that first introductory call was such a generous and thoughtful discussion around my dog. A discussion that made me rethink some of his behaviors, as well as some tangible solutions that I have worked. I would have zero hesitation in working with Andrea again in a larger capacity. The intelligence and level of expertise she bought to the problem was impeccable. Highly, HIGHLY recommended.

Everyone at Andrea Arden is incredible and the style of training is the absolute best - all positive reinforcement, so it's the highlight of my dog's week. We've done puppy training group classes, puppy play group, and one-on-one sessions with Katrina (who is a miracle worker!). The whole team is incredibly knowledge and they all provide a very personalized, nurturing approach. I can't recommend this place enough.

We have a 9 month old Bernedoodle who needs a lot of on-leash reactivity work and general obedience training. We have taken group classes + private lessons with Hannah R. and we LOVE working with her! This is a group of highly talented, knowledgeable and down-to-earth dog people in Manhattan (hard to find!). We are grateful for the structured way they presented the lessons, helpful HW, and great advice even when we weren't in class anymore. 100% recommend to any dog-owner in NYC!

Love Andrea Arden as a resource for dog owners in NYC! We have utilized them several ways and have been extremely happy with our experience with them.
We utilized their puppy play times quite a bit when our dog was a puppy to help socialize our shy dog. The puppy play times, though admittedly a little pricey for us at the time, were well worth it since the puppies get to play for a full hour under vigilant monitoring from their trainers. We tried some free puppy play times in the city and the quality was not the same.
We have also signed up for other classes they offer (i.e. agility) to further offer more enrichment opportunities for our dog after she became an adult, and the classes were always really fun and cadenced really well for skill building.
Finally, we have been doing their online classes during COVID, and they have also been exceptional.
All in all, highly recommended.
