Hi Alyssa has been fantastic with my 3 rottweiller puppies. YES 3!!! Even my mom (75 years young) is enjoying coming ivee and not being bombarded with puppy love and jumps in excitement. The reverse board and train has helped them be ok with people coming to their home, knocking, making noise. It makes it easy to practice on my own. read more

Karma Dog Training - Eddie Van, Angus, and Captain Axl - Pet Training Near Me - Houston, Texas

We rescued this big baby, Juice, about a year ago and while he has some excellent attributes we couldn't seem to really get him to listen or obey certain commands. We needed help! After several training inquiries with multiple companies, I immediately heard back from Karma, and a call with the owner was set up. He asked me all about Juice and explained the options he thought would be best. After deciding on "board and train" he said he thought he had the perfect person in mind and they would reach out soon. A couple days later I received correspondence from Sammye Darling, a trainer for Karma, who wanted to set up a call to talk about Juice. During our call she was very confident that she would be able to help with teaching him basic obedience and jumping. We settled on a 10 day timeframe with the expectation that it would be imperative to continue the training ourselves afterwards. (She would've preferred 14 days because that last few days is really when the training sinks in but I assured her we would stay on it) Scheduling was easy and convenient while we went out of town on vacation. Sammye was warm, gentle, and friendly upon dropping Juice off with her and I trusted her immediately. She stayed in constant communication with us, sending pictures, and updates on his progress. He took some time, he's stubborn, but eventually she saw the switch and said he was doing great! I missed him so much but knew he was in good hands with Sammye. Fast forward 10 days later and the day came to pick him up and I couldn't wait to see him. I'll spare you all the details of baby talk, kisses, hugs, etc. but it was a joyous reunion that had us in awe of the things he had learned. We spent about an hour there learning the commands, how to reward them, and practicing before heading home. She worked wonders and we were so excited to go home and continue the work. Before leaving we scheduled our follow up in person training session for a couple weeks out so Sammye could come see him in his own environment and see if we actually kept up with the training which we did! He is doing great! No, he's not perfect and we're still working on certain things but he's a different dog in many aspects. He has a "place" for when we're eating and now does it without asking and gets "off" the bed when it's time (he's too big to sleep with us) so he has his own. Those are two giant wins for us and we can't thank Sammye enough! He learned so much more and we continue to work with him everyday. Karma was professional and quick to respond which is always something I appreciate. Sammye, our trainer, was a delight who was professional, caring, thoughtful, hard-working, and made Juice feel right at home (in her own home) while teaching him some manners. I can't recommend her enough! Juice definitely missed her and was so excited to see her when she came over which further solidified how amazing she was. Call Karma and ask for Sammye as your trainer. You won't regret it! read more

Please contact me at 713 398-2358 for a review! Trainor was great! Carolyn is a professional and loves your dog like her own!

We were matched with Sammye for our Silver Package Training, which was a very affordable (5) session plan that was truly customized for our needs. Sammye was an absolutely amazing and knowledgeable trainer, she confidently addressed several of our goals and we couldn't be happier. We are a three dog household, and we had started to feel overwhelmed with barking at our guests, bolting out the door, and general over excitement. We have seen a 180 flip in their behavior. Sammye helped teach us how to manage our dogs during guest entry, and now our digs sit calmly in a crate upon guest entry and the entire experience is amazing! We couldn't be happier with Sammye as our trainer and Karma as a company! read more

Karma Dog Training - Happy training with Sammye! - Pet Training Near Me - Houston, Texas

Worked with Karina for in-home reverse boarding and was thoroughly impressed with how easy the process was and the amazing results with our puppy! Karina's a pro and so patient and professional in training both the dog and my husband/kids on how to work on together! With our crazy schedules the in home process and customization in our environment worked beautifully, and helped to integrate our new puppy seamlessly into the family and helped our senior dog adjust as well. read more

I have nothing but good things to say about Karma! I have a 5 month old Aussie puppy named Ollie and Karma has really set us up to succeed. The puppy kindergarten classes are an amazing way to get new puppies socialized and started on the path to being a really well trained dog! I also did a week of boarding and training with James Clay while I was on vacation and that was AMAZING! Ollie had so much fun but the most important part was that James communicated constantly with me while I was away. I still go back and rewatch the training videos he sent me to reinforce all the good skills he taught Ollie. It was such an amazing experience and I would send Ollie back to James in a heartbeat. My Aussie can be stubborn, but James did an amazing job with him! read more

Karina has a natural calm that she skillfully passes on to her trainees - that includes both pups and parents. Our puppy Maurice was a real handful with boundless energy and a very strong will. He needed some serious training and we needed guidance on helping him get on track. Karina took over and turned our little monster into a sweet dog and family member. He still has his moments - he is a puppy - but, wow, what a difference for us all. I've already recommended Karina to people in need of puppy trining and they are very pleased. karina is a jewel. She was so nice with Maurice but never let up. She got great results and we now have a great dog. read more

I had a kind of hilarious encounter with these folks. I contacted them, and they sent a couple of emails that indicated that they were practically falling all over themselves to talk to us about our dogs. Then I emailed back that our budget only allowed for the once-a-week six-week obedience class, and they went dead silent. They dropped us as if we were radioactive. I'm not offended, but how do they know I'm not just rejecting a hard sell? No doubt they're great if you're willing to spend a lot. I had to write them off. read more

I'm so glad I did my research and found Karma Dog Training. My Zeus was partnered with Karina for a week of Board and Train. Zeus went from being a crazy, hard to manage Shepard, to a listening, workable, calmer dog. I was shocked at how different Zeus was when I got him back. He learned so much and so did I. Karina sent me videos while he was gone. This helped me understand what and how she was training him. She also came to my home and did a handoff and taught me how to keep the training going. I'm so glad I sent Zeus to Karma! read more

We've brought our two puppies to Karma on separate occasions and we were pleased. We liked how Karma incorporate training and socialization. The socialization helps our puppy meet other people and other dogs. With training they learned the basics and the instructor comes around to not only make sure the pups understands but the pawrents are getting tips and tricks to be successful. For the second pup, we started at the end of Feb so we were interrupted with COVID. Karma offered zoom classes to continue the training sessions. Although I like the in person class, I enjoyed the zoom classes because it felt personal and James (our trainer) made sure to address our training issues we were experiencing during the pandemic. The only thing missing was socialization but I hope to make that up when we get to go back in person. read more

We had a great experience with Karina and karma dog training! Our older dog has been dealing with separation anxiety and resource guarding and she was able to give us some great training and helped us to practice our new skills. We learned a lot of skills to help our pup out and had a great and positive experience with our personal trainings and group classes. read more

A coworker recommended Karma Dog Training to me. At first I wasn't so sure if I wanted to proceed because of the website, but I'm so glad that I followed through. Mayra Luna was my puppy trainer, and she was very helpful and patience with us. My 3 month old dachshund puppy, Yoshi, was so anxious around strangers and going on walks, also he had a tendency to be stubborn. Now he is a whole new little man after I did 1 week of board and training with Mayra! He's confident on walks, doesn't bark at strangers, and knows so many helpful commands. Also Yoshi has been enjoying the weekly Puppy Kindergarten classes. I highly recommend Karma Dog Training! read more

James Clay was our dog trainer.. and we couldn't be happier. Other reviewers had called him the dog whisperer, so we were sooo happy when the owner of Karma Dog Training placed us with him. We have a very rambunctious almost 4-month-old long haired miniature dachshund named Moose. We had 2 FaceTime conference meetings with James before our Moose went to him, and immediately felt so comfortable with him & knew this was definitely the route we wanted to go with puppy training. We all decided that 1 week of board & train would be best to get a crash course in obedience since I was going back to work after being furloughed for a month. Our board & train situation was to have Moose stay overnight at James' house for the week. Moose came back a little rockstar. I am able to redirect him from chasing our cats most of the time which is huge! The "hunting" instinct is super strong with this little one. I can get his attention by saying "Touch" and holding out my hand and he will come touch my palm with his nose. So cool! James sent us a training outline of what he was going to be working on each day, and created a schedule for Moose which is so nice because he didn't really have any structure before that and he does so well with some structure. We also got training videos each day for us to watch and learn how to do what James was teaching Moose. Also got a few fun videos of Moose just being himself and learning to be social and play with James' dogs. James seemed to love & genuinely care about our dog & Moose was super fond of him. We did a training session in our own house of what Moose had learned in our own house & we were so impressed!! Great job to James & little Moose too! read more

We signed up our very newly adopted 4 month old puppy Breaux for Karma's puppy kindergarten and had a FANTASTIC experience! The class was held at Carlisle's on Sunday afternoons and was split into small, medium, and large dog sessions. They offer 1 free class, which was great for making sure the 7 week class is for you. Their focus is positive training, using treats and praise, and gentle (voice only) corrections. Side note: Before I found Karma, I called another daycare/boarding/training business, whose classes were significantly more expensive, and was told that 4 months was too old to start kindergarten, so choosing Karma was really easy. There were 2 trainers (Ashley and Brooke) for 2-7 puppies+owners, so there was lots of individual attention. Both trainers were welcoming, extremely knowledgeable, they clearly loved dogs, and all the puppies loved them. Each class felt casual but was structured with socialization/playtime, learning/practicing 1 new skill, and then downtime for petting/desensitizing paws. What I found most helpful was that Brooke and Ashley asked if we had questions throughout class and saved time for questions/discussions at the end of each class. I probably asked 5-10 random dog questions (usually unrelated to what we were doing that day) each class, and got a ton of great tips, as they were so willing to talk about any issue or question and share their knowledge/expertise. After completing all 7 sessions, our friends/family are super impressed with his good behavior, attention, and skills, I feel more confident with Breaux, and we've formed a great foundation of training. Bottom line: HIGHLY recommend Karma! read more

Karma Dog Training - Breaux @ 5 months, practicing sit & stay :) - Pet Training Near Me - Houston, Texas

We are super happy we found Karma dog training! We researched around and signed up for puppy classes even before we picked up Sansa. The puppy group session was perfect for her to learn something new each week and to have a little time to socialize with other puppies. If we happened to miss a class we were able to make it up since the lessons were on a 7 week rotation schedule. The facility itself is on the small side and I wished there was a patch of grass in the back for Sansa to pee on (we usually go across the street after class). All the trainers are amazing! We can tell they care a lot about the puppies and they're big on positive teaching methods. Each week we learned a ton, not just about the week's lesson, but the trainers also gave a wealth of information about anything else the group had questions on. We really want to thank Ashley, Brooke, and Marcella, they've been a huge help with Sansa's growth into a good canine citizen and they're the reason she looked forward to going to class every week. read more

Karma Dog Training - On Sansa'a puppy class graduation day! - Pet Training Near Me - Houston, Texas

I'll just say it: puppies are f****ing hard. From sleep deprivation, to the god awful 'mouthing' stage, to cleaning up what seems like an eternity of pee and poop, puppy parenthood is not for the faint of heart. After about 3 weeks with our 9-week-old lab mix, my boyfriend and I felt helpless. Something had to give. Luckily, the Yelp gods led me to deliverance in the form of Karma Dog Training's PUPPY KINDERGARTEN classes. What I like: //Socialization I'd say 75% of this class is socializing your puppy with others. While you may think, "Hey, I can just go to the dog park for free!" You won't have nearly as safe or controlled of an environment. This is the safest way to socialize your pup at such a young age. //Sterilized This was the biggest challenge when finding a puppy training class. Because our fur-baby was not fully vaccinated, I was extremely cautious of potentially exposing her to other dogs and outdoor environments. Karma gave me the most assurance by requiring all puppies to have their appropriate vaccines based on age, as well as sterilizing their facility with clinical-grade distemper disinfectant. You're even required to disinfect the bottom of your shoes. //Training foundation Like I said, this class is primarily geared to socialization. We spent about 20-25 minutes per class actually training our pups. At first, I wished there were longer sessions dedicated to pure training, but I began to realize that our pup couldn't focus much longer than that. She was ready to run around with her friends. Katie - our trainer- always gave us homework for the week ahead. It's about consistency. You have to take the drills you learn in puppy kindergarten and apply them at home. If you're only working with your dog once a week in class, you won't make much progress. //Community There's something comforting about commiserating with other puppy owners. You bond over lack of sleep and trade training wins and losses. While it's not the most intensive training course, this is a great investment for your pup. Pricing is super competitive (about $150 for 8 classes), and Karma trainers (especially you Katie!!) are so patient and passionate about their work. read more

I recently left my labradoodle pup, Nala, with James for the Board and Train program and I am very impressed with the experience. Throughout his time with Nala, James was sending me multiple video updates per day with training strategies personalized towards our specific goals - each of these videos were extremely helpful for future training at home. After bringing Nala home, she had much better impulse control and independence, two things that were top priorities for us. I would not hesitate to recommend James (and Karma Dog Training) to anyone that needs board and training for their dog during an extended absence. EDIT: I am editing my review to also speak on my experience with Katie in the Puppy Kindergarten class as well as an in-home training session. I have been taking Nala to Katie's kindergarten class since she was 8-weeks old (16 now) and it has been instrumental for her development. Katie has a deep understanding of dog behavior and is clearly very passionate about helping us dog owners foster a strong bond and a positive home environment for the family. She has made herself available as a resource outside of class/session time, and I am so appreciative of everything that she has done for us. read more

I'm writing about the very helpful training that my service dog and I recently received from Sammye Darling, the founder and program training director of Sammye's Signature Service Dog Program. I had contacted Karma Dog Training to be able to access Sammye's training. I particularly appreciate her overarching focus on ensuring that service dogs and their handlers fulfill their mutual responsibility to act ethically and responsibly in public, thus helping preserve public access rights for all who use service dogs to overcome disabilities. Sammye's training was comprehensive and useful, including insights about service dog behavior and overcoming public access obstacles. She's also a very personable trainer and very good at developing effective, pleasant relationships with handlers and their dogs. For these reasons, I highly recommend Sammye's Signature Service Dog Program. read more

Enrolled my now 4mo puppy in the Sunday puppy classes a few weeks back and had a private session this weekend with Sammye Darling. I have to say that she has a gift with dogs, I've seen it in class and got to see how my shy dog responded so well to her positive training at home, she's also great training both us humans and dogs, explaining very well and very patiently how to deal with situations and teaching us how to follow up with training at home. I was really proud to see the progress of my puppy in just one session, she just loves her, I would definitely do it again. read more

Aaron Courtland at Karma Dog training is great with our shy Havanese, Bailey. His calm, smooth voice and demeanor is comfortable and provides soothing, secure training with Bailey. She has "come out of her shell" with Aaron and his encouragement to us, as dog owners, and his "high value treats" reward system really works. We love puppy kindergarten with Karma dog training; we learned new training techniques and Bailey has supervised opportunity for socialization. We look forward to attending each week. Many thanks to Aaron and James! Kelli M. read more

Karma Dog Training - My happy and calm puppy after training - Pet Training Near Me - Houston, Texas

We have had a great experience so far! After only two lessons, our two high-energy dogs have started listening and understanding what it is we expect them to do. We are doing basic obedience training now, such as down, stay, and jumping avoidance. Our trainer Sammye Darling is great! She she is very positive with the dogs. She is also good with training us humans to do the right thing. The lessons are enjoyable without any stress. She takes the time to explain the science behind what she is doing. The time she's at our house is very well used and the dogs make a lot of progress. (And she's is a Texas A&M grad. Gig em! ) read more

My experience with Mayra and Karma dogs has been nothing but magnificent. I originally had gone with another company/trainer in the Rice Military area as he was closer, however this man was extremely arrogant, overpriced, lacked professional courtesy of something as basic as returning email/calls in a timely manner and what he claimed was positive training equated to repeatedly yanking a choker collar, no treats, no toys, extremely harsh methods. Needless to say, I was a little nervous going forward with finding an appropriate organization to partner with me training my Labrador puppy. I couldn't be happier with my choice of going forward with Karma Dog. My email inquiring about group and private lessons was responded to within the hour. My questions and concerns were completely and professionally answered. Mayra was aligned to be our trainer and our first session was a breath of fresh air. She was so kind, knowledgeable and patient. It's quite apparent she truly loves her job and furry clients. The Karma method of dog training is based truly on positive reinforcement. Tanner instantly took to her direction and commands and she did fantastic job polishing my puppy training skills as they had become a bit rusty since my last puppy. I decided to go with 12 private lessons where Mayra came to my home in the beginning, later we'd meet at a public location to add additional distractions to our weekly lessons. Tanner and I both looked forward to our weekly sessions and if questions arose outside of our sessions, she was available to provide guidance and answer my questions in a timely professional manner. I am extremely thankful and grateful that Mayra came into our lives and I look forward to continuing Tanner's training with Mayra and the Karma Dog team. read more

Absolutely life changing. I've had my rescue dog Leo for about 1.5 years, and there are a lot of issues I needed help with. Pilla is an amazing teacher and has given me tools to help manage Leo. I went from having massive anxiety whenever people came over due to Leo's behavior, to feeling confident about how to manage him when people come over. I know that my body language is an important factor in communicating with Leo now. Leo went to from sleeping on my bed (and subsequently becoming territorial over my bed), to sleeping in a crate. You will definitely have to put work in, but any responsible dog owner should know this. There's still so much more I want to learn, so I will definitely be purchasing another set of lessons!! read more

We had raved about Karma before and I kept meaning to update. Our actual board and train with Khala was great but the follow up training and customer service (seeminlgy disconnected from khala?) were not. We could not make some trainings due to scheduling and the office was unresponsive and unhelpful. They encouraged and requested a 5 star review to access additional free training sessions that again never came through. Also the training was short lived and though I put in the time and effort to keep our dog on track there has been serious regression. We are now looking for a different board and train option. read more

We can't say enough good things about our experience with Karma Dog Training. We worked very closely with James and it was worth every penny. Our 5-month old puppy, Lily, had a great first meeting with James and we were quite comfortable leaving her in his care while we were out of the country for two weeks. They quickly bonded, socialized and became fast friends. James sent us video updates daily, training to-do lists and kept us well informed on Lily's progress. We came home to a puppy who would sit, stay, leave it and had advanced so much in a short amount of time. We'll continue to use Karma for additional training and boarding when we are away. Lily will stay on track to be a well behaved dog as she continues to grow and develop. Thanks James! You're the best! read more

If you're up for a lifetime of carrying nasty high-value treats in your pocket at all times, then this purely positive training method is for you. If you want to have your dog know basic obedience commands like sit, down, stay in a controlled environment, only to have them completely ignore you when you're placed in a REAL WORLD distraction, this training is for you. If you want to have someone tell you that if you have a reactive dog, that avoidance techniques are the best you can ever expect from them, then this is for you. The problem with all-positive training is that there will come a time with every dog when the distractions that dog faces are more interesting to the dog than the high value reward you're carrying on you. All this method does is teach your dog that food is a BARTERING CHIP between you and them - this is ruining your relationship with your dog! I spent over $500 on private lessons where a dog "trainer" sat on my living room floor feeding my dog frozen lamb pieces, and then proceeded to act like she was actually training my dog. And that was after she showed up late (by hours), every single time. I'm sure this works for some dogs, but it certainly was not the right fit for mine. If you have a reactive, aggressive, or high drive dog, do NOT even waste your time here. Personally, I want my dogs to listen to me all the time - not just when I have raw meat in my hand. Thankfully we have found other trainers/methods in Houston that have helped us. read more

I only use RO for Doggy Day Camp (or day care as they call it). I absolutely love it and my Golden Doodle is nuts about it. She goes three days a week and has her own set of good buddies to play with. There are a lot to choose from since there are probably 50-60 there in a two acre Field with wading pools for when it is hot. The dogs have to pass a temperament test so they are all well behaved. There is a good number of people counselors to keep the dogs entertained. The really good part is that Bella gets exhausted and falls asleep 30 seconds after getting in the car. read more

I have a 8 month old boxer puppy named Rocko. Both my husband and I were to the point where we were thinking of getting rid of him. The constant barking, jumping & walks were so stressful and our patience was getting thin... till we met Mayra with Karma dog training. Having that one on one at home training really taught us how to be more patient with Rocko & how to finally walk him properly! We didn't realize how smart our dog was until the training began. Now I love to take Rocko for walks and teach him new things that I know he can learn! Thanks a lot Mayra! Melissa G read more

We started off with a group class through Karma and immediately I knew that the people I had met would teach my husband and me the right ways to work with our new puppy. We were matched with Sammye, who has a ton of experience in exactly what we were looking for. In the month and a half that we have worked with Sammye, our puppy has become a completely different dog in all of the best ways! She is still such a puppy and has maintained her personality, but we get compliments all the time about how well trained she is. Sammye has been so supportive, patient, and kind and has taught not only our puppy, but my husband and me as well! We've always raised our dogs being used to saying "no, no, no", but learning how to properly train using "yes" and positive reinforcement has been SO effective and we are learning life lessons along the way. Before we know it, our puppy will be an accomplished adult service dog! Sammye has done so much for us in such a short amount of time and we are forever grateful for her and the positive experience she and Karma have brought into our lives. We love you Sammye!! read more

We tried sample classes at various places before acquiring the help of Karma. Positive reinforcement works like a charm. We got extremely lucky to have Khala come and work with us. Not only did she train my dog but also taught me how to continue the training for my puppy. She was also very generous with her time, in our second session my puppy got stung by a bee and Khala stayed with us till she was sure he was fine and then offered to reschedule. Karma is also very competitively priced. All in all a wonderful experience, I highly recommend them. read more

Mayra was so sweet and helpful from the get-go! Our puppy, Nina, has a stubborn personality, but Mayra was able to break through to her easily. As new puppy parents, we were not quite sure what was the best way to deal with Nina's personality. Luckily, Mayra seemed to understand the Shiba personality. Along the way, we got a new puppy, and Mayra was so helpful with him as well, providing tips that benefited each puppy's personality. Every session she came prepared, we could tell she had put a lot of thought into the training lessons. I would highly recommend Mayra for your personal training needs! :) read more

Karma Dog Training - Pet Training Near Me - Houston, Texas

My dog, Grizzly, my fiance and I trained with Mayra for a little more than 2 months. She taught us how using positive reinforcement could correct his impoliteness on leash and reactivity towards guests, strangers, and other dogs. Mayra was always up beat and optimistic at the start of every training session and it was very obvious that she adores dogs and helping people become more responsible pet owners. After two months of working with and learning from Mayra, Grizzly improved walking on leash and his reactivity improved from barking incessantly at strangers and dogs 50 ft away to only barking occasionally at dogs within a few feet. At the start of year, walking grizzly resembled more pulling and barking than a casual stroll. Now, we are excited to train him and watch him become a more obedient and well mannered pup. read more

We were looking to teach our energetic puppy Miso how to channel that energy and learn good manners and that's when we found karma dog training! We only had 5 weeks available before we moved out of Houston and Karma dog training was very accommodating in setting us up into a group class with Mayra. The class itself only consisted of 3 dogs so Miso was able to get the attention he needed to learn. Mayra definitely personalized the class by spending time with each student and teaching them the lesson based on what the personality of the dog was. For Miso, distraction was a big issue so Mayra made sure to treat him often so he would really enjoy making eye contact and actually focus. The classes also consisted of socialization which I thought was very important. Miso is a social butterfly but he needed to learn when it's appropriate and when it's not appropriate to greet other dogs so the class was key in allowing him to greet other dogs while still responding when called. In addition to the class, we did a private session with Mayra and all I can say is, we achieved SOO much in what seemed like a short period of time. She was able to address all of our concerns and we were able to practice the commands and exercises until Miso got it. One of our key focus was having Miso learn to greet guests in a calm and respectful manner and by the end of the session, Miso was able to greet each of us by remaining seated and allowing the "guest" to pet him without nibbling. We plan to do another followup session and can't wait for it because Miso LOVED working with Mayra. read more

I came to Karma Dog in Houston looking for training for my 5yo Belgian Malinois rescue, Happy, who had a number of problems. I worked with Sammye Darling who helped us work on leash manners, separation anxiety, and crate training to name a few! I initially started with one private session at my home and decided to do a short board and train with her, which was followed up by a few more one-on-one sessions. Throughout Happy's training Sammye has been very patient and caring towards Happy even with his high energy. Her knowledge about dog behavior and positive reinforced training techniques is superb. Her experience is evident when working with her and makes it very easy to learn from her. Happy now loves his kennel and with the techniques I have learned from her for leash walking and separation anxiety, he is improving more and more every day! read more

Pilla Osborn is the absolute best in dog training! She genuinely cares and goes above and beyond to assure she get the results the owner wants all the while my dog is falling in love with her!!!! Her training method is all positive and the results are amazing quick!!! I highly recommend Pilla....... read more

Love Karma dog training and Mayra. Our puppy was timid and scared initially and she took the time to slowly acclimate him to the other puppies. Every class she goes around and works with each puppy and troubleshoots any issues. It is a great opportunity to socialize my 9 week old puppy with other dogs and learn the appropriate ways to teach my dog. They offer the first lesson free and if you like it you can sign up ! read more

Karma was recommended to us and we worked with Karina Montano, who is an excellent trainer. Karina was knowledgeable, patient and kind and our four month old labradoodle loved her as did we. He is now six months old and a far better trained puppy. We completed our sessions, but we plan to continue with regular check-ins with Karina. read more

Karma Dog Training was great! Pilla Osborn worked with me and my little buddy Frankie to get him potty trained. She was very knowledgeable and gave great tips and techniques for training Frankie. You can tell she is an expert as both Frankie and our other dog Bella responded very well to her. With only a few lessons there has been a huge improvement with Frankie thanks to Pilla's guidance. She was very easy to work with and flexible with my crazy schedule. I highly recommend Karma Dog training and Pilla Osborn! read more

Karma has made the transition to owning a puppy the greatest experience ever! Before Remy came home, I was nervous about providing all the best for him and knowing what I needed to train him appropriately. We started attending Puppy Kindergarten classes and all my nerves were calmed. All of the trainers are so knowledgeable and provide individual attention that help each puppy acclimate and learn. But these classes are SO much more than just learning tricks and skills! The socialization aspect has helped Remy become comfortable around all type of animals and people so that I feel confident taking him with me anywhere he is welcome. Also, the handling exercises they introduced helped tremendously when Remy received his first hair cut. The groomers told me he was "the easiest puppy they've ever had!" I truly believe that these experiences would not have been the same without the help and training we received from Karma. In addition to Puppy Kindergarten classes, we also used Karma Dog Training for a Board and Train week when I had to go on vacation. Khala was the absolute best and I immediately felt comfortable leaving Remy under her care. I knew that he would not only be trained, but that he would be loved! I came back from vacation to the happiest, sweetest puppy ready and willing to show off all his new tricks. She sent me pictures throughout the week so I always knew what he was doing and what they were working on that day. That sense of security was unlike any other and well worth the money. Karma has not only been great for my dog, but I have appreciated the wonderful customer service they offer. They are always quick to respond to questions and emails and willing to accommodate any needs the customer might have.
