I had a great experience at Serenity. Kevin took the time to really get to know my dog and understand his needs, while also helping me see where I could improve as an owner. He provided practical tools and knowledge that I can use now and in any future training as well. Not only has my dog’s obedience improved but our bond has also grown stronger as I have a better understanding of my pup now. I highly recommend Serenity K9 to anyone looking for effective training.

5/5
Kevin was highly professional and easy to work with regarding training our dog, Mak. He is very clear with information and the expectations regarding upkeep of training to maximize our investment. His communication during and after training was very clear and we were never worried for our dog while he was boarded with Kevin.

I cannot recommend Kevin enough for his exceptional work as a dog trainer, particularly for dogs with complex challenges. We met Kevin by chance while he was training dogs at Lowe’s, and it was immediately clear that he has a remarkable gift for understanding and working with “broken” dogs. My German Shepherd, a service dog, struggled severely with anxiety, which often left me navigating environments carefully to avoid overwhelming him. Kevin’s expertise completely transformed our lives.
Kevin’s approach is nothing short of extraordinary. He didn’t just train my dog; he unlocked his potential, helping him learn to engage joyfully with other dogs and become part of a pack. The foundation Kevin built has given my dog a new lease on life, allowing him to thrive rather than merely exist in fear. While my dog will always have some anxiety, Kevin has equipped us with practical, effective strategies to manage it, fostering confidence and connection.
What sets Kevin apart is his commitment to ensuring owners are fully equipped to sustain the progress made. Unlike our previous experience with a trainer who provided minimal guidance post-training, Kevin requires follow-up sessions to teach owners how to maintain and build on the foundation he establishes. This has been a game-changer. In just 11 days since my dog returned home, we’ve made incredible strides, moving together more naturally and engaging in activities that ease his anxiety. Kevin’s training has not only made my dog happier but has also deepened our bond, making our time together more enjoyable than ever.
Kevin’s passion, expertise, and dedication have been a true blessing. Meeting him was a turning point for us, and I’m endlessly grateful for the positive impact he’s had on my dog and me. If you’re looking for a trainer who can transform your dog’s life and empower you as an owner, Kevin is the one to call!

My Husband observed Kevin/Serenity K9 training dogs at Lowes. I then met him and we scheduled a free consultation at our home. This was the best decision in trainers and we are grateful! Kevin was professional, insightful, and forthcoming about the entire training process. After our initial 4 weeks of day training, the difference in our puppy (from pulling and chewing on the leash to aptitude for commands and instruction of what we expected from him) exceeded our desired outcome. Our puppy, Ags, is much calmer and confident. We put in the work that Kevin, also, taught us to continue his training and development. He posts his progress on Instagram. He has, also, followed up with us when we have questions. Kevin means business and has a true and deep passion for training dogs and his purpose.

We decided to train our 9-month-old Aussie, Bear. After several failed attempts to find the right trainer, we found Kevin at Serenity K9. Kevin took the time to listen to our concerns and put together a training plan that fit our needs. In just four short weeks, we now have a well-behaved dog we can take anywhere. If you’re looking to have your pup trained, I highly recommend giving Serenity K9 a call.
