We knew that we had a unique puppy training situation with having not one, but two very active six month old sister pups. We knew our situation would require a special type of professional Trainer. One who could take on and handle two puppies at once... two puppies who are full of energy! We also knew that we didn't want them boarded and that we wanted their training to be on a daily basis. Because of my age and my balance issues, it would have been impossible for me to be transporting these active (unleash trained) girls daily. We needed a Trainer who could be flexible and would be willing to come to our house and handle training our two pups on a daily basis. The Trainer would not only have to teach them commands together, leash walking together, but also car seat and riding in the car manners. This wasn't going to be an easy task and it would mean that this Trainer would have to be willing to sacrifice their own needs in order to accommodate our needs. We needed a Trainer who wouldn't shy away from a challenging job. We found everything we could ask for and needed in the owner of Koda's Training company... Liliana (Lily) Aguilar! Lily obviously takes great pride in her job and her company. Lily is a confident dog Trainer! Lily was very accommodating and flexible while adding new command requests as we thought of them. Lily had great control with our two girls and yet used positive reinforcement and affection at the same time. Each day, Lily focused on new commands while always going over and reinforcing what she had already previously taught them. At the end of each day, Lily would go over with us what she had worked on with the girls and encouraged us to keep up with the reinforcements. Lily was always in command, but was also very loving with our girls. Both pups loved seeing Lily daily! The last couple of days (of 10 days total) were spent teaching both pups to walk together on a dual tandem leash holder so my husband could take them on their daily morning walks AND the riding in the car manners and commands. As you probably can tell... we are extremely happy with the decision we made in hiring Koda's Training! We would highly recommend Lily and her company! Lily is very easy to talk with and extremely knowledgeable and informative. You can tell she truly loves dogs and she wants us to also love them and be happy too. Thank you Lily for giving us the confidence that we needed and for helping us in training our girls. Blue and Sophie miss you. Judi Sweeney read more

I think the experience with Stormy was really good I feel like she definitely has a lot more manners and not so crazy. I'm excited to see how she does with the other dogs and my fingers are crossed it all goes well. I'm very satisfied with the attentiveness given to Stormy for her medical care and all. I appreciate you tremendously as training has hopefully helped as we didn't want to have to rehome Stormy so I am hopeful and happy I did this training ! read more

After a pet sitter that promised to watch our puppy while we were on vacation ghosted us, we went on a mad dash to try to find new pet sitter. Enter Koda's K9. Lily was one of the only pet sitters to respond quickly and when she learned about what happened, she made every effort to try to help us out. We ended up being lucky enough to find a new sitter that stayed in our home, but I have mad respect for Lily and Koda's K9. We'll be using them for training in the future and will post updates after. read more

I cannot say enough good things about her training. This is my Belgian Malinois, Skye, went through obedience training and the results were amazing. Skye listens so well to commands now, is noticeably calmer, and her leash pulling has improved so much. She's also more friendly and confident overall. She made remarkable progress, and you can truly tell how much care, patience, and knowledge she puts into her work. She also took the time to educate me on proper equipment to use, which will make a huge difference in continuing Skye's training at home. I'm beyond grateful and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for real results and a trainer who genuinely cares read more

I highly recommend the boarding program ! She did an absolutely fantastic job with my dog, Nela. She was patient, professional, and really helped her learn good habits. We've seen such a huge, positive change in her behavior. If you need a reliable trainer, look no further! She also did updates with pictures and videos and kept us informed on her progress. read more

Lili at Koda's K9 training is great and very knowledgeable. I had my 4 month golden retriever participate in her 3 week board and training for some house breaking issues I was dealing with. My dog came back potty trained, crate trained and stopped her nipping. As a cherry on top my golden learned basic commands (sit, down, stay and paw). At a year old I had a dog full of energy, constantly barking at nothing, jumping and bitting at my wrists. I sent my golden for a second round of board and training which was so helpful with correcting the behavioral issues. My golden also learned to walk on a leash and no longer drags me. Thank you so much Lili for all your help! read more

I highly recommend Liliana! She did a fantastic job training my 6-month-old Doberman in just two weeks. My dog learned how to walk on a leash without pulling, create train, follow basic commands, and she also corrected my dogs reactivity towards other dogs and people! Liliana offers reasonable pricing and is accommodating with scheduling, as well as with pick-ups and drop-offs. She communicates excellently, answering all my questions, and continues to provide assistance even after the training is complete. I have also done dog sitting with Liliana, during which I received updates and videos of my dog having a great time! It was also offered at a reasonable price and was extremely accommodating to my specific needs. read more

It has taken a minute to leave this review due to life craziness, but we must give Lily five stars out of five stars!! Lily has been incredibly understanding since the moment we reached out with our urgent distress. We had rescued a German Shepherd mix puppy who was experiencing a lot of aggression and fearfulnes / anxiety, and would lash out on family members, such as kids. We felt like we had hit rock bottom and almost started considering rehoming our beloved babygirl -- so much emotional stress and anxiety -- but Lily came to the rescue, and not only trained our dog, but helped train us to be better dog parents for our German Literally by the 2nd day of training we noticed a MASSIVE difference with our baby! Now it's Christmas time, and our German was able to participate and take Christmas pictures with her grandma and grandpa! I trust Lily with my babies all the time!! read more

Words cannot express how grateful I am for Lily and her services. She kept my dog for 3 weeks and did a board/train program. She was so flexible and helpful with the payment options and was very communicative throughout the process. My dog, Macy, was jumping, zoomies, getting into trash, chewing on furniture, pulling during walks, attacked other dogs (in a playful way). When she brought Macy home, she was a different dog. She listens to commands, she is fully crate trained, doesn't pull, doesn't jump, and listens. We haven't had an issue with her chewing, running around on our furniture, and walks are a breeze. Even my 11 year old daughter can walk her without an issue. I can't even explain how grateful we are for Lily. Thank you to Koda's K9 training. Without her, we wouldn't have been able to keep our dog. read more

Highly recommend kodas training! Lili has been so helpful and informative she's been with my corso mix since she was a puppy and her training has helped her grow into a confident dog! My dog lola had some resource guarding and was a big teether as a puppy but with Lili we were able to over come that and also add obedience training on top of that! Lola has improved tremendously with her leash manners, resource guarding and overall behavior. I was able to do train and board both at home and send her out with lili and she came back a completely different dog. lili does constant check ins as well which makes the process easy and gives pet owners peace of mind. overall very caring trainer and goes above and beyond for her clients!! read more

Similar to others that have shared their reviews, our recently adopted dog displayed aggressive behaviors and we had to consider rehoming him. However, we wanted to give our "pumpkin" every chance to be part of our family and sought the help of Lily. Lily was able to quickly identify some of our dog's triggers and helped train him to overcome those triggers. Best part of Lily's program is when she brought our dog home, she spent an hour with us explaining what she saw in our dog, how she was able to control him and most importantly, trained us to be better handlers. It's been less than a week since our dog has been back home and he is so much better than before. There have been a couple of instances where we needed Lily's assistance and she quickly responded and provided us with more guidance. Can't say enough great things about Koda's K9 Training! Thanks Lily for everything!!! read more

This is my dog Polo ,he is 2 years old , Kodas K9 training has definitely made a big difference in polos behavior. He was only on training for 3 weeks, and in this time, he learned a lot. Polo was really hard to control, especially when I used to walk him . Now he is completely different , I can control him, and he listens. Polo was aggressive before Kodas k9 training helped with this issue to , he is more calm and I can control his aggressions now.I Definitely recommend Kodas k9 training for any type of dog. Thank you, kodas k9 training. read more

I highly recommend Lily as a dog trainer! I have a 1 year old german shepherd(Luffy) and his main issues were jumping and biting our hands. I desperately needed help because i have a baby girl and I was t feeling safe having my dog being so hyperactive and biting without stopping I reached out to Lily and thankfully she had a spot open for Luff. we did her board and train for 2 weeks and when he came back home we noticed a huge difference. He no longer jumps. Lily taught him commands like stay and lay down. He used to cry when we would leave somewhere but he's been more calm. He's a very hyper dog so she taught us to be very patient and slow with our actions so it doesn't get him all hyper because he needs to know patients too. I'm so grateful that Lily was able to help us because I needed to feel safe with him and around my baby. She's sweetheart and I really recommend anyone to take their pup to her, you'll see a real change for the good! read more

Lily is the best! She has helped me help my dog learn manners and commands. If you need help and guidance with your dog I wouldn't hesitate to contact her she is definitely one of a kind. read more

We rescued a dog in June and quickly realized she was very leash reactive. We worked with Lilly over the summer and she not only helped train our rescue, but have us the tools to continue working with her and our other dog. I highly recommend Lilly as a dog trainer! read more

Our 12 year old Chihuahua was really struggling with a lot of fear and anxiety that would manifest in him lunging and barking at people in and out of our home. It was creating a lot of anxiety for us given that we would like to take him out to socialize and have family and friends in our home. Lily off the bat was always very responsive, friendly and kind and she helped us with our pup immensely! We chose to do the 2 week day training program and we are really glad to have had the support in our environment and our local community. We did not just get the tools we needed to shift his behaviors she gave us a wealth of knowledge to deeply understand his behaviors so we can know what was going on and why they were taking place. Thanks so much Lily, you are the best!! You can definitely teach an old dog new tricks! read more

Lily was an amazing trainer for our newly adopted 2yr old German Shepard. Our rescue dog was showing signs of being too aggressive and not following commands. After two weeks of working with Lily and us putting in our time the training has paid off. Our new family member has become more friendly and very obedient with us. Hands down the best decision we have made by hiring Lily !!! read more

Jack and I had the pleasure of working with Lilly on Training. Jack is my Grandson's dog and at my age was a bit much for me to walk. The pulling was killing me. After just a couple of days I was able to walk him with no issues. She was wonderful with him and I am so happy that I can now feel comfortable walking Jack during the day while they are at work. read more

Lily is THE BEST! We saw results on the first day. Her gentle training has made a world of difference for our dog and our family.
