Sarah Stoycos runs this dog training school in the Rockville area of Montgomery County, Maryland…read more She offers in home dog training, plus classes at Your Dog's Friend in Rockville. I met Sarah through a program at You Dog's Friend for foster dogs. I highly recommend her! She's smart, bright, funny, engaging, patient, down to earth, nonjudgemental and a good listener. Sarah helped me train several of my foster dogs, including an under-stimulated blind herding dog, a 12 year old Border Collie without any training and a feral herding dog. These were not your typical "family dog who jumps on company" training issues, and Sarah took them in stride, offering awesome suggestions which helped these dogs gain confidence, helped me understand them better, and, ultimately, helped them get adopted into amazing families. If Sarah can train my complicated foster dogs, she can definitely train your dog! Sarah is a great dog trainer: she listens to your concerns, watches your dog and how you interact with your dog, and then offers reasonable solutions to your issues. Because she talks you through the problems and solutions, clients are more likely to understand why their dog is acting a certain way, and the best way to help them. I have worked with a lot of dog trainers. With Sarah, you understand your dog better, and because of that you are more likely to keep up the training skills and find success (and happiness). Sarah uses positive reinforcement training techniques (including clicker training!), which IMHO (and the dog training community's HO, and the scientific community's HO) are the only way to build a better relationship with your dog and find success in communicating with and training your dog.

Sarah Stoycos is a fantastic trainer! She uses positive reinforcement clicker training that is…read moreeffective, and gentle and wonderful (NO choke collars, prongs, alpha dog, etc techniques that are dangerous and ineffective). She is easy to work with, is patient, calm and smart. I highly recommend her.

I was recommended Old Towne Pet Resort by a coworker, and I will now be recommending them too!…read more I called to make a 2-week dog boarding reservation 30-days in advance for the peak Christmas season, and they miraculously had availability at one of their three locations (Bethesda). The gentleman on the phone was so helpful and informative and made it easy. When it came time to drop my dog off the staff were so friendly and kind, and they were extremely attentive and took detailed notes of all the items I brought with my dog and any of her quirks (e.g., severe allergies, doesn't play well with others, etc.). The space was so clean and large. I felt very reassured dropping her off as I went on vacation. When I came back to get her, the staff was helpful and, again, extremely kind and talked about her time there with details that were definitely unique to my dog. She was happy, healthy, clean, and well groomed. All of her toys and leash items were accounted for and they even ran a toy out to my car that they had forgotten in her kennel. Bottom line: 5/5 do recommend!

Two years after boarding my dog at Olde Towne Pet Resort, I am still dealing with health issues…read morecaused during her stay. I am not one to complain, especially in a public forum, but the lack of care my animal received was egregious. During her stay, my dog experienced an ear infection so severe that she developed acute dermatitis from scratching. The sore or 'hot spot' on her cheek was unmissable when we picked her up, but The staff tried to pass it off as if everything was normal. The groomer who prepared her for pickup had the gall to pretend he didn't notice a massive weeping sore on her face. For her condition to have reached this point, she would have needed to scratch constantly for days and not be noticed by the staff that were supposed to be spending 'cuddle time' with her daily. As anyone who has ever had a pet with an ear infection can attest, the behavior is far from subtle. Any remotely observant and competent person would catch it. Worse, I reviewed the update photos that were sent throughout her stay, and red spot on her cheek is visible in every shot and getting progressively worse. This means that the staff overseeing playtime let an animal run around with blood on her face for days without investigating. This is utterly unacceptable. My dog also came home with constant bouts of diarrhea that we assumed this might have been a bug she picked up in boarding, but it turned out to be colitis. Our veterinarian confirmed that this was most likely stress-induced. It has made me wonder what trauma my dog experienced while being boarded that would cause her to develop a permanent bowel condition. Her colitis has caused her enormous suffering and I am still trying to manage the condition years later. As others have reported here, the staff did not feed my animal the way they were directed, and returned what was supposed to be an empty bag of dog food to us half-full. So to recap, they underfed my dog in addition to neglecting an ear infection and resultant severe, pus-weeping skin infection, then tried to pass my pet off to me as if nothing happened. Whatever they did or neglected to do for her led to a chronic bowel condition that has rendered her partially incontinent. I was appalled by the dishonesty I experienced from the staff, but decided at the time to let it go, and simply swore never to give Olde Towne my business again. I figured my dog would bounce back, but she didn't. Reflecting that she has never been the same and that she experienced pain and neglect at the hands of the people I entrusted her with, I feel the need to let other pet owners know what they might be in for if they board their animals here.
