Excellent experience Excellent experience, David was the best trainer, came to pick her up explained everything, also sent updates everyday and responded any questions I had. In regard to training my puppy Lou is AMAZING, she responds to commands and listens when she has to listen, also really appreciate that David house is such a loving house and treated Lou the best they could, and she shared a lot of good moments with her other little puppy friends!! Very happy with training.

Make sure to choose a good trainer for your dog I enrolled my dog in a four-week training program at Wagmates in hopes of addressing her separation anxiety issues. Unfortunately, my experience fell short of expectations, and I feel compelled to share my honest feedback. Firstly, it's essential to acknowledge that Dyese, the trainer assigned to my dog, does not specialize in separation anxiety. Despite this, I opted to proceed due to the urgency of the situation and Dyese being the only available option at the time. Regrettably, after the completion of the four-week training, I noticed minimal to no improvement in my dog's behavior. It felt more like a boarding experience rather than comprehensive training, as there was little evidence to suggest that my dog had learned anything substantial during her time at Wagmates. Moreover, considering the significant financial investment of $4000, the lack of tangible progress was particularly disheartening. My dog returned home exhibiting the same behaviors as before, and her separation anxiety remained unresolved. After expressing my frustration and dissatisfaction with the initial training, Wagmates arranged for an additional month of training with Ria, who specializes in separation anxiety. I am grateful that Wagmates did not charge me for this extension. Although it meant separating from my dog once again, it turned out to be a pivotal decision. Under Ria's guidance, my dog underwent a transformation. Ria's expertise and dedication were evident from the outset. She not only addressed my dog's separation anxiety but also went above and beyond in her care. Ria provided daily updates, offering reassurance and highlighting my dog's progress. Additionally, she took care of minor grooming tasks, such as brushing and nail trimming, which demonstrated her commitment to my dog's overall well-being. The results of Ria's training were remarkable. Previously, my dog would bark incessantly, even after the initial training with Dyese. However, with Ria's help, there was a significant improvement. My dog is now able to remain quiet in her crate and can be left alone for extended periods, a feat I once thought unattainable. Ria's passion for helping dogs shone through in every interaction. She even provided food and treats for my dog to take home, exceeding my expectations. Thanks to Ria's expertise and Wagmates' commitment to addressing my concerns, my dog and I have emerged from this experience with newfound confidence and relief. In conclusion, while the initial training experience was disappointing, Wagmates' dedication to customer satisfaction and the expertise of trainers like Ria ultimately led to a successful outcome. I highly recommend Wagmates, particularly for those seeking specialized training for their dogs' specific needs.

Excellent board to train experience After searching for a board to train program, I’m extremely happy I came across Wagmates. The experience from start to finish exceeded my expectations. My dog’s trainer Luis was very friendly, explained everything aspect of training my dog and made me feel as ease with the whole process. I was able to easily get in touch with Luis with any questions and concerns I had, and he was always sending dog updates. My dog came back well behaved and other behavioral concerns were addressed and handled. I know training is a life long process for my dog and I am glad Wagmates offers follow up when training is completed. I’m very satisfied with the results.

Ghost's Training Experience Dontae was the trainer for my puppy. The transformation in my adorable furbaby Ghost's behavior is truly remarkable. While he's still a young pup and has more learning ahead, being a French Bulldog, known for their training challenges, he's already mastered sitting, staying, and lying down on command. Furthermore, he now walks beside me and stops when I do. I'm genuinely astounded by this behavior change and eagerly anticipate watching my baby continue to improve. Many thanks, Dontae!👻❤️

Instant change From the very moment at pickup I saw a instant difference in my dog’s leash behavior! Trainer Raul was very informative and patient with our puppy Chai. I could tell from the very start that he would make a huge difference in training and he did! Not only did he train our puppy but he trained me and my husband to keep up with her training! I am very satisfied and I appreciate the help! Thank you!!
