If you are looking for specialized dog training or boarding in Fort Collins, look no further than Olivia at Barking Bonds. Her boarding services are truly exceptional; it is such a relief to leave your pets in a place where they are so wellcared for. We came to her with dogs that were incredibly rowdy and high-energy, and from the moment she met them, she completely understood the situation.
Olivia doesn't just watch our dogs; she sets us up to succeed as well. She taught us invaluable techniques for mental stimulation and how to incorporate more activity into their daily routines. Our youngest dog, Jagger, was starting to show signs of reactivity, and Olivia’s expert eye caught the specific triggers immediately. She gave us the tools to handle those situations with confidence. The highlight has to be watching Jagger learn to use the walking treadmill—a sight that truly never gets old! It’s very entertaining
What sets Olivia apart is her patience and lack of judgment. She is just as patient with us as she is with the dogs. It is clear that she is deeply ethical and genuinely wants what is best for the animals. Helping the owners is clearly just as important to her as helping the dogs. I highly recommend her for anyone in NorthernColorado. Barking bonds really made a difference.

Olivia the owner and trainer at Barking Bonds is absolutely an awesome dog trainer. I have a young 90lb German shepherd who I really did not know how to handle. Olivia worked with him and with me and in no time we were figuring it out
It's amazing how knowledgeable she is. In no time I had more confidence and skills to handle my pup. He responded and learned so much from her.
I will be forever grateful for her help.

We have used Olivia for both training and boarding of our Golden Retriever. She is absolutely amazing. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would. She was patient and positive with both our dog and us during training and the results were outstanding. We have used her several times for boarding and my dog loves being there. She can hardly wait to jump out of the car and greet Olivia. Olivia provides so much enrichment during Moqui's stays, that I am confident that she has a wonderful time. I would not leave our dog with anyone else

Olivia from Barking Bonds is a wonderful trainer. Her method is positive reinforcement and repetition. My dogs love her and respond very positively to her. She was able to help me gain confidence and learn to successfully train my dogs. She helped my dogs gain confidence and me find solutions to behavior problems caused by lack of training and bad habits. I wholeheartedly recommend Olivia for dog training and boarding.

Olivia was wonderful to work with for our mixed breed Maple, who is reactive to new people in our home. It was a process, but with patience and guidance we’re now comfortable having people over since we now know how to manage her behavior. Olivia was responsive to questions between sessions and also sent us helpful videos. I highly recommend!
