    We tried other trainers before DTE and there is no comparison with the work DTE team does. After the first session my puppy was already feeling more confident and responding to the commands. We appreciate the approach of Jocy and Alaina. They were excellent to Niko and us. They pushed us to learn and do our best to train Niko. We just loved the program. I also want to highlight the group class. We attended one so far but we loved and it is very helpful for Niko. Thank you so much!!

    Dog Training Elite has been nothing short of incredible. I honestly can’t say enough good things about their team and the results they’ve helped us achieve. When we started, my dog had plenty of areas that needed work—but through their structured training, patience, and clear guidance, everything changed. They don’t just train your dog—they teach you how to communicate effectively, which made all the difference. The trainers are professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about your dog’s success. What really stands out is the transformation. My dog has gone from needing direction to being confident, obedient, and reliable in a variety of environments. Thanks to Dog Training Elite, he’s now at the point where he’s ready to take a therapy dog test—which I never would have imagined before starting. If you’re on the fence, don’t be. This program works. It’s an investment that pays off in every aspect of your dog’s behavior and your relationship with them. Highly recommend.

    My daughter and I absolutely love Kayle! She is clear in her directions, and will even change how she says it if my daughter doesn’t understand. Without even asking she will explain why/reason to whatever she is working on with my daughter and our dog. She is an excellent source of knowledge and so sweet

    My dog Cannoli had amazing results with Dog Training Elite. He is about a year and a half we had already done training on basics but he was still very timid around new people and reactive at dogs we passed by on walks. With Dog Training Elite we had multiple trainers work with us over his first few sessions which was a great way to get him to overcome his fears of new people and people entering our home. For the second half of his private session we worked with Rich who was amazing with Cannoli. He was patient when Cannoli needed, he saw immediate potential with Cannoli. Rich really personalized the experience to Cannoli, his needs, and pushed him past his comfort zone in a safe and exciting way that has allowed Cannoli to become a confident dog. Having the trainers personal dog join some of the sessions was a great opportunity for us to overcome reactivity and was a great tool for Cannoli. Now we feel confident moving into the group classes!

    Kayla is the most kind, patient trainer. Her knowledge of training dogs precedes her for sure! Looking forward to learning from her as we participate in your program!

    Jason and Syanne have been amazing and I couldn’t ask for a better experience. They are working with my family and I to train my puppy Finn to be a psychiatric service dog. I’ve been with them for about a year now. They both never fail to make me laugh and make training fun. As someone with a lot of anxiety, they do such a great job at making a fun and safe environment. Jason is always available to answer questions and always answers in such detail and I have learned so much from him. Jason is extremely knowledgeable and very kind. I’m so grateful my family and I chose this training with them and I would highly recommend them for any training with your dog! It’s always so fun to see everyone and their dogs at group class too!!

    10/10! Would recommend Jason to anyone who is looking for training. I also loved that he meets you where you are in your training, From novice to expert. Jason really cares about all of his doggy clients and their owners too! I don’t have enough good things to say, only than I had found him earlier on

    Jason is the best trainer we could have asked for. He helped us train our Golden Retriever Callum to become an excellent therapy dog for nursing homes. Jason is a 10/10 trainer, highly recommend!

    We’ve had a fantastic experience with Dog Training Elite Boston. The trainers are incredibly dedicated and clearly care about both the dogs and their owners. We received thoughtful, personalized feedback at every step, along with practical training strategies that were easy to understand and apply at home. The process gave us and our dog so much more confidence, and we now feel like we have real tools to handle situations that used to feel overwhelming. Highly recommend to anyone looking for effective, supportive, and results-driven dog training.

    Tiffany was great! She helped tremendously with my stubborn Chihuahua, Vivian. She introduced a new and somewhat scary prong collar to my dog to help with correcting her jumping and lunging and barking at nearby dogs and people and worked on walking up and down my hallways which always was a HUGE issue before using a regular collar and even a martingale collar. She would literally choke herself and be panting but continue to lunge, pull, and bark, all in her back two legs at anyone walking by or even trucks, school busses, or regular cars driving by. Anyways, Tiffany is so great! We have been working with Laydon, and there was a schedule conflict this week and Tiffany came, and I was so impressed. With switching between Laydon and Tiffany I was apprehensive about it, but after this training session, I am completely confident that Vivian and I will get the proper techniques and training that we signed up for and need! Although I’ve only met those two trainers thus far, (and today was week 4), I believe Dog Training Elite has the best trainers around! I feel confident that if Laydon ever has another conflict with our pre-scheduled training sessions, and Tiffany isn’t available either, that anyone will be able to read over the notes about Vivian and to do the session without any hesitation as well as fit right in with Vivian’s sassy attitude, stubbornness, fiestiness and learning style. Thanks Tiffany!! And thank you Dog Training Elite!!!

    Tiffany was very informative and knowledgeable in regards to ,my dogs needs and what we would like to accomplish. I appreciated her, taking the time to explain things in a clear manner and how the program works. Looking forward to working with potentially her or other trainers in the elite Dog Training program.
