We've used Island Dog Obedience for both their regular board and train and their service dog board…read moreand train for our two Australian shepherds, and their services have been life changing. The difference in recall alone is worth it. Our dogs come back reliably now, which is something we struggled with for a long time on our own. Their overall behavior improved across the board too, not just the specific things we went in wanting to fix. Raya is the reason this works. She is the real deal. She's incredibly responsive, and she sends updates throughout the training so you're never left wondering how your dog is doing. The videos she sends also provide instruction for you as the dog owner. She clearly cares about every dog that comes through, and it shows in the results. What sets her apart, though, is that she doesn't disappear when the program ends. She's still there for us, giving advice on how to keep the training going at home, answering questions, and helping us hold onto the progress. That kind of ongoing support is rare and it makes all the difference for us to keep up the training at home. If your dog needs real help, go see Raya. There's no one we would trust our dogs with more!

Because of his time with you, he is no longer nearly as barky during our neighborhood walks. When we first started coming here, I was incredibly burnt out. Rigs and I were on a constant, exhausting cycle of trying to train through his reactivity. From day one, this team welcomed us with open arms and reminded me that Rigs just needs patience. While I still get a little cautious on our walks sometimes, it is nothing like it used to be. I am so grateful for the hard work, care, and support you provide. Thank you guys so much!

Upon arriving we were greeted with their staff and they explained what would happen throughout the day and asked if we preferred Vader and Toby to stay together. We opted to separate them and we'll probably be sticking with that plan until further notice. Overall, great experience for our dogs and us. Vader and Toby will definitely be coming back

Went to look at fish for aquarium. Best place to buy Rummy nose tetra, price is listed at $4.39,…read moreother shops where at $5.99 and $6.99. But members have discounts which dropped the price to $3.45 (tax included). Price = 5 stars. But to get to purchase it is another story. Strange vibe from person catching the fish, basically told me, "what do I want, how many, is that all, go wait by the cashier, I'll bring you the fish", sure took a long time to catch the fishes compared to other shops. Did not mention any discounts and I didn't see any signs stating discounts. Then I go to the cashier, she ask for phone number, told her I don't want to give it to her. Didn't realize she was trying to get my membership number pulled up. Took out my credit card to pay and was told I'm not allowed make a purchase, so questioned her that I buy fish food from their Honolulu location, what does she mean I'm not allowed to make a purchase, then she clarified that since I'm not a member I'm not allowed to purchase live animals including fishes. I wanted to make sure I heard her correctly and restated back to her, so I have to be a member to purchase fish, she said yes, if not they couldn't sell me fish. So I question her, the fish in the bag will have to go back in the tank? She says yes. Silence..... So on my end I state, can I sign up to be a member, and from there it moved on to purchasing the fish. For those who want to return dead fish - the cashier explained to me the rules, bring back dead fish within 30 days, bring receipt, and bring some of the aquarium water (as they test the water), need these 3 items or they can't give you a return. The people that I interacted with kind of threw me off, almost like I were dealing with robots, I'm sure they are very nice people. But it got me thinking, what if I told fish person, I want 5 of this, 5 of that and 5 of that fishes, I'm pretty sure would have took +15 minutes to bring to the cashier. Then I tell cashier I don't have a membership, and we just stare at each other like robots. Get rid of the membership requirement to buy fishes.

Stephanie is organized and very detailed to ensure the best for you, your pup and any other pups in her care! I especially love how thorough she is about requiring up to date vaccines and flea/tick/heart worm prevention! Her attention to detail about your pups routines and preferences put us at ease! We were celebrating our son's graduation at Aulani for a few days and Meli had a little vacation herself at Loving Paws Dog Boarding! You can expect amazing communication, pictures and puppy updates! She has a beautiful yard and covered patio for the pups to enjoy and also offers a drop off/pick up service!!!

From the very beginning, Stephanie at Loving Paws Dog Boarding was incredibly well-organized and provided detailed instructions for everything needed--nothing was overlooked. During our initial visit, K.O. immediately took to her, which gave us instant peace of mind. Stephanie has such a warm and calm presence, and it's clear she genuinely loves and understands dogs. She also sent us photo updates throughout K.O.'s stay. In the first photos, he looked a little shy (totally expected for a young pup), but by the end, he was happy, relaxed, and playing with his new furry friends. It was such a relief and joy to see him so comfortable and having fun! We're beyond grateful for the care and attention Stephanie gave to our pup. We'll definitely be bringing K.O. back for future stays. If you're looking for a thoughtful, reliable, and truly loving dog boarding experience--Loving Paws Dog Boarding is it!

I highly recommend Kristen/Guahan K9 for a dog trainer. She has a tremendous depth of knowledge…read morewith extensive experience in a wide range of training and behavioral situations. Kristen is caring, professional and has a natural way with dogs, and their humans. She teaches so much more than just basic commands and educates owners about dogs and proper dog ownership. She uses positive training techniques which are key in helping you grow the relationship between you and your pooch. Kristen always invites questions and always prompt with a response, and offers plenty of suggestions to be successful. She exceeded all our expectations, her training approach was the most effective. I could genuinely say that she is Kaia's favorite trainer! I have worked with many dog trainers for almost a year because my girl has more extracurricular activities than I do! We will see you soon for our next goal: train and pass the Canine Good Citizen

Sabrina is truly so amazing!…read more I came to her wanting to train a Psychiatric Service Dog for myself and she was the most sweet and caring person. I could not have asked for a better experience with this whole process. Sabrina has always been so responsive and kind about my situation since I am a student financing the cost of a Service Dog on my own and she has been nothing but extremely flexible and understanding the entire way through. I got my baby Sugar Plum from her and she was raised with Sabrina. Since I started working with her, she has been such an angel and I am so lucky to have such a great dog who is always so attentive and well behaved. I have had virtually no issues with training my puppy with her help. But if I do, Sabrina is always right there to help me out! I canʻt count how many times that Iʻve asked Sabrina questions about raising my puppy or how to train or even what cage size I should get for her. Itʻs not just the training you get with her, sheʻs really there for any support which I have been so extremely grateful for. She knows her way with the dogs and I trust her with my puppy more than anyone else. I cannot recommend Sabrina and Balanced Obedience enough, and everyone I talk to knows it! If you are looking for trustworthy adoption, training, and/or boarding, this is it!

Balanced Obedience has truly been a dream come true! Sabrina is absolutely amazing…read more Before training, I couldn't even walk our dog because she pulled so hard. It wasn't just me--even our dog sitters struggled to walk her. She also greeted everyone by barking, whether they were coming into our home or we were visiting theirs. She sounded like a fierce guard dog... which is pretty funny considering she's a full-blooded Golden Retriever! The transformation has been incredible. Not only is she so much better behaved, but we've also learned how to communicate with her in a way we never knew before. The training didn't just change our dog--it changed our relationship with her. We can't recommend Balanced Obedience enough. If you're on the fence about investing in training, take the leap. It is worth every penny, and you'll be so glad you did!

He was especially great managing the transfer from the Honolulu quarantine station over to Aloha Air Cargo and on to Maui. That flight from the mainland ended up delayed too, and Lenny still got Jagger to Aloha Air Cargo extremely fast.
