    Dontavia is so knowledgeable and patient with Honey and me. Its been a pleasure working with her. She is encouraging when I get discouraged. She is very intuned to Honey and her special needs. Honey has come a long way in obedience since we started in just 3 months! I saw a huge difference in just a few sessions. Thank you Dontavia for being such a sweet special person and an awesome trainer.

    Dontavia has been a very encouraging trainer. She works excellently with my Yorkie named Kiwi and myself. She makes sure that Kiwi is obedient, respectful, and uses her manners well. She makes me feel comfortable to ask questions and share concerns that I have with training when we are not at a training session. She is great at offering new ideas for training from all of her experience. I feel fully supported on my service dog training journey. Thank you so very much! She is just fantastic to work with!

    Dontevia is an amazing dog trainer. She helps the client build confidence when unsure if a command is done improperly. Dontevia is also on time every session and is very kind. She’s helpful when correcting the clients mistakes and it helps a lot! I recommend her for anyone looking for a service dog training. She helps the dog believe in themselves and the client as well. She even is responsive to any questions you may have after the training session is over on days you’re not training.

    We have two Great Danes that have so much energy and strong personalities. We were to the point we couldn’t even have friends over or go out of town. Dog training elite has completely changed our dogs behaviors, for the better! Steve is amazing and patient. Dontevia (super sweet trainer) is so kind and outgoing, she created a bond with our youngest Dane that trusts no one! Would recommend to everyone! It saved our home atmosphere, won’t own another dog without this training.

    We have a German Shepherd/Belgian Malinois mix that Dontevia has been training to become a service dog, and we couldn’t be more impressed. Her expertise, patience, and calm confidence make all the difference. No matter the challenge, she always has a thoughtful solution, and it’s clear our dog absolutely adores her. Highly recommend Dontevia for anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate trainer!

    These guys are legit!!! They’re knowledgeable, friendly and very accommodating. Dontevia has been great as well. She very attentive and addresses our concerns with solutions.

    Dontevia is the best! She is so easy to work with and learn from. Over the past month, she has been incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and supportive as we’ve worked with our pup. Her training techniques are both effective and gentle, and she always takes the time to explain the “why” behind each method, ensuring we feel confident reinforcing the training at home. Not only does she have an amazing connection with dogs, but she also knows how to coach owners to bring out the best in their pets. In just three weeks, our pup has gone from having minimal obedience training to no longer pulling on the leash, mastering sit and stay, and even going to her place on command. The transformation has been remarkable, and it’s all thanks to Dontavia’s expertise and dedication. If you’re looking for a professional, caring, and highly skilled trainer, we wholeheartedly recommend Dontavia and Dog Training Elite!

    Nothing but good things to say about Elite and the way they’ve worked with Maple, the newest addition to my family. Dontevia does an amazing job each and every week. All the lessons are clear, easy to implement, and effective. If you are serious about training your dog, strongly consider Dog Training Elite.

    We’ve LOVED our experience with Dog Training Elite. Currently they are working with us to turn our now 1yr old Labrador into a service dog for our profoundly Autistic son. DTE has been a valuable resource every step of the way. The entire team functions cohesively, the support is top notch, and the experience/insight is true. Recently we’ve had the opportunity to work with Dontevia and we have so enjoyed her energy, enthusiasm, and insight. She is fun to work with and reads the dog and environment very well. We have no doubt with this company and with our trainer - that we will see results and success that will truly last a lifetime.
