    If I could give zero stars, I would. My experience with…read moreTampa Bay Canine Retreat was hostile, erratic, and deeply unprofessional from beginning to end. We booked boarding weeks in advance, signed a written contract, and paid a deposit. The drop‑off time was clearly stated in writing. On the morning of drop‑off, my husband arrived exactly at the contracted time. No one answered the door. While he waited outside, I called, texted, and emailed trying to reach the provider. She did not respond until more than 30 minutes after the scheduled time, and even then, she did not come to the door to begin the service as agreed. When contact was finally made, her tone escalated immediately. She raised her voice, used strong language, and instructed her husband to return the dogs after they had been inside for barely a minute. No intake occurred. No check‑in process happened. No services began in any meaningful or contractual sense. We requested a refund of the $118.83 deposit due to her failure to honor the contract. Instead of responding professionally, the provider sent a series of hostile messages, including false accusations and statements about suing us over a potential review. After the conversation had already ended, she sent another message the following day containing personal threats unrelated to the transaction. The timing and content were completely inappropriate and reinforced our concerns about her conduct. Because the provider refused to perform the service, we had to secure emergency same‑day boarding elsewhere just to proceed with our travel plans. Despite not providing any service, the provider refused to return the deposit. The full sequence of events is documented in writing. This experience was stressful, avoidable, and entirely due to the owner's behavior. For the safety of your pets and your own peace of mind, I strongly recommend choosing a professional, reliable, and accountable boarding provider. This one was not it.

I thought "no big deal, they are small". However, a friend spent the weekend at my house, and much to my surprise, one of my babies nipped at their son. I was shook! I found Helene and she helped me understand how anxious my fur babies were, and that all of their behaviors were because they were so anxious about new people, dogs, places, etc. Helen took the time to get to know us before coming to our home, and even watch videos of their behaviors around strangers and other dogs. I kid you not when I say that within minutes of her guidance, the fur babies were more relaxed. Within just a few days, they were actually enjoying their walks and jumping into their collars! She reassured me every step of the way providing honest, but kind feedback. My friend came over again with both of their sons, and the fur babies did great! Thank you Helene!!!

Our main pain points were potty training and socializing, which Helene was an immense help. I first inquired about Helene's services via a phone call where we instantly bonded and I knew Helene was the right person for the task. The first lesson was a more of a Q&A to get to know the puppy, answer any questions we had about dog training, and any general q&a about dogs in general. The remaining lessons were tailored to our biggest pain points. Once the training started, we saw the changes we asked for almost immediately! Our puppy's routine was well received by our puppy, it was like magic. I highly recommend Helene's services to anyone and look forward to how our puppy will be once the classes are over. Thank you Helene!

My initial…read moreconsultation with Taylor was great, she asked a lot of questions about my Malinois rescue and what I was looking to get out of training. I explained to her that there were a few areas that he and I could use some help in, and we got the ball rolling. Brent showed up on the day of pickup and walked me through the process of what to expect during the time he would be training Kona and what kind of updates I would get. I got daily pictures and updates on his status. All I can say is wow, when Kona came back, he was a different dog. Brent spent about 2.5 hours with my family explaining how to integrate the training he used into our lives and how to use the tools he provided us with to make sure Kona succeeds. I think he trains the owners more than the dogs (lol). After we went through his training it was time to put it to use, he had my wife, and I walk Kona, and he gave us tips on how to correct behavior and relax and enjoy the walk. Thank you to Brent and his staff for helping us help Kona be a successful rescue and a huge part of our family.

    The one star for the training, and the lack of stars for unprofessional conduct from the owner…read more(Brent). Our dog went through professional behavioral training through another company years ago. He had a solid baseline for learning and commands (sit, heal, place, etc.). Our primary issue was our dog's reactivity. We needed more help on how we as owners could manage this better. We decided to go with Ridgeside K-9 based on their stellar reviews and 4 week behavior modification board and train. Brent picked our dog up and was very thorough on what the plan was. We received a picture/video just about every evening with minimal communication attached. We were trusting their process. During the turn over, everything went well. We did notice our dog had lost a good amount of weight. He was never over weight by any means, but now we can really feel his ribs, spine, and hip bones. Nothing unhealthy though. We also noticed his bark was very different, and we figured it was due to him barking in the kennel during the turn over. Just over a week went by, and our dog's bark was still extremely weak. That coupled with our dog's weight loss had us a little uneasy. When confronting Brent over a phone call out of concern for our dog he became extremely defensive. He heatedly said our dog about drove him insane for 2 weeks due to his barking (which he never thought to mention previously), and then asked if we see a difference in him considering the training. I said not significantly. As mentioned, we've worked our dog for years, and the technique Brent taught us regarding our dog's reactivity is new to us. It had been just over a week and we were still learning to manage and get the results we need. However, before I could elaborate on any of this Brent completely flew off the handle. He was literally YELLING at me over the phone, saying I don't know what I'm talking about, we are the problem, and that I am a person who worries too much. I simply wanted to talk to him out of concern for my dog, and I felt like that meant nothing to him. My husband intervened on the phone due to Brent's disrespect toward me and it only got worse from there. We didn't get a hint of this instability throughout our prior interactions with Brent, and this left both of us completely in shock. Once things cooled down, Brent went back into a mode of wanting to help. Although this was appreciated, the damage was done. Brent has a lot of passion and pride in his work, but his temper concerns us greatly. It was like a switch, and there was ABSOLUTELY no excuse for that level of disrespect towards us.

At that point, we decided to enroll with Sit & Stay Academy. From what we saw the facility is clean and well-kept. The dogs are in large cages and we did not see "overcrowding" that the others are reporting. From what we saw, the staff are very attentive to the dogs there. Clark is great and definitely know their stuff! Sanchez was there for about 8-9 months with weekly visits/training classes for ourselves. We have had Sanchez home for about 2 months now. He is like a new dog. He does not have any desire to hump the other dogs. He really doesn't want anything to do with them in terms of messing with them. They can all lay beside each other and nothing bad happens. Yes, the training can look a bit rough, but that's because we haven't done training on any of our dogs and it was new to us. The program was definitely worth the money. Sanchez is super obedient now and life is great. Thank you Sit & Stay Academy!!
