“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Humble Paws! Their expertise, patience, and passion for dogs shine through in every session. From the very first meeting, it was clear that they understood my dog’s unique personality and tailored the training to suit her needs.
Maui has made remarkable progress — she is obedient, confident, and well-behaved at home and in public.
I love their ability to make training fun and engaging for both dogs and owners. They teach effective techniques and explain the ‘why’ behind each method, which has been incredibly helpful for reinforcing behaviors outside of our lessons.
If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and skilled dog trainer, I highly recommend Manuel at Humble Paws. They are indeed the best at what they do!”

Boarded my anxious dog for 9 days without a hitch. The staff knew how to handle a fearful dog and made me feel very comfortable. They’re also very responsive by phone.

I have a 5-year-old German Shepherd named Tex, and this was his first time being boarded. I was very nervous about how he would handle it—not only being away from home but also being around so many other dogs, especially during a busy Thanksgiving week. He stayed at Humble Paws for 8 days, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience.
When I picked him up, I could tell immediately that he was not just fine but truly happy and well cared for. Manuel brought Tex out to me in the waiting room, and as he went to gather Tex’s belongings, Tex actually started to follow him instead of staying with me! That small moment showed me how comfortable and cared for he felt during his stay.
I highly recommend Humble Paws to anyone looking for a safe, caring place to board their pets. I will definitely be boarding Tex there again. Thank you, Manuel, for taking such great care of my dog—it means the world to me!
