I can’t say enough good things about She’s a Keeper! Vanessa's puppy kindergarten class was exceptional! Her expertise and enthusiasm were evident from the start. She provided clear, effective training techniques that catered to puppies of all temperaments. Her patience and positive reinforcement methods created a fun, supportive environment for both pups and their owners. The classes were well-structured, engaging, and very informative. I highly recommend her classes to anyone looking to give their puppy a great start!

She's a keeper training and board and train has done wonders for both my dog and my boyfriends dog. Not only are they excellent trainers, the entire staff is extremely attentive, loving, and thoughtful. They approach every dog differently and give catered training that fits each dogs needs. In addition, the staff is so friendly and kind. My boyfriends dog is extremely fearful and seeing her get zoomies every time they come to pick her up for day care warms our hearts and speaks to how trustworthy they are. It can be hard to trust your dogs with strangers (though won't be strangers for long), but at she's a keeper you know your dog is in good hands.

Highly recommend the puppy kindergarten class at She's a Keeper! We had an amazing experience from start to finish. The trainer Vanessa was knowledgeable, kind, and truly passionate about what she does. We learned so much, from basic commands to effective communication with our pup. The small class size allowed for personalized attention, and our playtime at the end was a big hit. Our dog passed the class and even received a certificate! We couldn't be happier with our experience. Thank you to the entire team for a fantastic program!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience with She's A Keeper. Andy, Jo, and Jackson are absolutely outstanding trainers, and they worked wonders with our 11-month-old golden retriever, Max. We are beyond delighted with the results! We had taken Max for some invaluable training lessons with Jo before dropping him off for his 3-week board and train program. And we could see how loving and professional they all were. From the moment we dropped Max off, we knew he was in the best hands. Andy and Jackson treated him like one of their own, showering him with love and care throughout his training journey. They took the time to understand Max's personality and needs, ensuring that his silly personality was preserved while firmly and consistently enhancing his behavior and obedience. The training environment was exceptional. Max had the opportunity to socialize with other dogs, which greatly contributed to his development and social skills. Through the daily video updates of his progress, we were thrilled to see Max comfortably visiting stores and going on off-leash walks with the confidence instilled in him by Andy and Jackson. When we got Max after three weeks of boarding with them, we were amazed. Max is the same lovable, silly, and affectionate dog we've always known, but he's also a new dog – calmer, more attentive, and exceptionally obedient. Max loved to keep practicing his new skills and training at home. Andy visited with us after a week to check on how things were going and to give us a couple of tips to improve the effectiveness of Max’s training at home. Thank you, She's a Keeper, Andy, Jackson, and Jo for all that you've done for Max and for being such fantastic trainers and people. We couldn't be happier with the results, and we'll forever be grateful for the positive impact you've had on our beloved Max. We look forward to having Max board with you in the near future and having more fun!

We've had an excellent experience using She's a Keeper for both puppy kindergarden and weekly daycare. As first-time dog owners we had many questions, and Vanessa was such an upbeat and knowledgable teacher. When we contacted Vanessa with a concern we had with our puppy, she actually stopped by our house to talk through it with us in person...absolutely going above and beyond!
