They were both wonderful and really took the time to explain each of the dog's behaviors - the how & why. After your first in home visit, you're able to take your dogs to group classes which are held all over the city & suburbs. These classes are awesome for our reactive dogs - it gives them the exposure they need in a controlled environment. I have never been made to feel embarrassed or bad about my dog's behavior which I have experienced at other training organizations -- that is why we hired them! I really feel that I have a strong support system with Say It Once. While we (my fiancé & I) need to stay on top of training on our own, our dogs show so much progress each training sessions.

I think that Alisha did a great job on not only training Foxxi to listen to me, but she trained me as well! I never knew how many bad habits I was doing towards my dog and she helped me correct that.

My family was on the verge of getting rid of her even though we love her so much. Alisha was calm, walked me through the steps I needed to take to retrain her, answered a ton of questions and never asked for a dime. She was so incredibly helpful and she gave me hope that I can get my dog back on track! Because of this spectacular service I asked her if she would be willing to do some one-on-one training with my dog. We meet this Sunday and I am excited to see what else she can help us with. Her individual rates are fantastic as well. Personally, I think she should charge more, but am definitely not complaining. The only bummer is that she may be moving soon because her husband is in the military. I'm going to take advantage of her services while she is still in town. I cannot express how helpful and open she is! Great job Alisha!!!

At that time the assured me that they would come for the scheduled days and send me pictures or updates regarding my cats. When I left home on Friday I left out 2 bowls of water and 4 dishes of food. Every day that I was away I received pictures and/or updates about my cats via text message. When I arrived home Monday evening (July 12th), both bowls of water only had water covering the bottom and the food was only covering the bottom of ALL 4 food dishes. I have left my cats alone for 2 days in the past, with no one coming into the home to check on them, with the same set up of food and water(2 water bowls and 4 dishes of food). After 2 days of the cats being alone in the past, all of the bowls would still be about 80% full when I returned home. That was not the case when I returned after 4 days away with people supposedly caring for my pets. There is no way that they were filling their food and water daily, like I had contacted for them to do. I was very disappointed, but decided to just pay my bill and move on. I recently requested my keys back and they informed me they would be sent back via certified mail and there was a $20 charge to mail them per our contract. The same contract that stated the cats would be cared for daily. Their audacity in asking for $20 to get my keys back is what prompted me to leave this rating. I normally do not write reviews, but I wanted to warn others who care for their pets as much as I do, to BEWARE OF THIS SERVICE.

They have a safe environment and trainers that are able to provide my pup socialized skills, clarity in communication and time that I wasn't able to provide him with. Elissa is so kind, patient and very supportive. Honestly, all their trainers are so passionate about dogs, they care about them so much and advocate for the dog's success, they will all help you to become a better and responsible dog parent. I LOVE that they help me strengthen the bond with my beloved one and there for me all the way through (super responsive!) My pup came home more confident, focus and happy. He is now a proud CGC pup, were able to enjoy our outings safely together and have a great start to discover all the adventures life throws our way. The best part is that we will have their support for life, join the community and learn about more training to bond our relationship in a healthy way. The upsetting part was that I wished I had known and started with them and not waste my money on other trainings prior! I'm definitely coming back here when I get my second dog. It's SO worth it.

My husband and I contacted Paw & Order to inquire about training our anxious dog to go to the…read morebathroom outside rather than inside our house. Paw & Order had some availability for an in-home consultation that would last about 1.5 hours and cost $100. The trainer was named Jamie, and she arrived at our house on time. She had a pleasant personality, and she talked in depth with us about our dog's behaviors and her proposed training techniques. She spent most of the time talking with my husband and me, and she observed my dog only for a couple of minutes in a bed and on the front stoop. Jamie said that Paw & Order uses balanced training that combines positive reinforcement (e.g., adding a desirable stimulus to increase a behavior), negative reinforcement (e.g., removing an aversive stimulus to increase a behavior), positive punishment (e.g., adding an aversive stimulus to reduce a behavior), and negative punishment (e.g., removing a desirable stimulus to reduce behavior). Jamie said that she would initially use positive reinforcement (e.g., a door bell and a lure stick) with my dog to build her confidence. Then she would consider using a choke collar, a prong collar, and an e-collar that feels tingly. She said that she probably would not use the prong collar, but my husband and I would need to consent to using the other collars. At the end of the consultation, Jamie gave us a contract to consider signing. The contract said that we would receive 4-5 sessions within 6 months of the start date, and lessons would typically be scheduled every couple of weeks. The total cost would be $1,835. We would be required to send a weekly text or email about the dog's behavior as well as upload a video showing each household member working with the dog. In the end, my husband and I ended up not hiring Paw & Order to train our dog. (Our adoption contract with the animal shelter had prohibited choke chains, prong collars, and shock collars, and the shelter employee specifically mentioned to not use this company.) I, however, do feel thankful that Jamie gave us some useful training tips, such as using hotdogs, a bell, and a lure stick.

She was able to quickly identify the things we were doing that were not working and teach us how to better communicate to our dog. Our beagle also had a lot of aggression with towards other dogs, so we thought.

Kate immediately saw that our beagle was actually very fearful of the other dog and that what was causing his reaction. Within fifteen minutes we were walking down the street side by side with the German Shepard and its owner without my beagle flipping out! Kate offers sessions in the client's home at a reasonable price. You can pay per session or buy multiple sessions for a discount.

We had to rush her straight to the emergency vet because she was bleeding, in pain, and terrified. The manager later admitted that Roo was kept isolated and wasn't given her prescribed daily medication while she was there. We were never called or informed that anything had happened to her. No one reached out to tell us that our cat was hurt, covered in blood, and needed medical care. The emergency vet confirmed that her injury was serious and required immediate treatment. She now needs her bandages changed and wound care every two days, and we still don't know how long it will take for her to heal. So far, we've spent over $2,000 trying to save her. We've filed complaints with the PA Department of Agriculture (Bureau of Dog Law Enforcement), the local SPCA/Humane Law Enforcement, and other agencies, and are pursuing legal action so no other family or pet has to go through something like this. Please double-check that any boarding facility you trust with your pets is licensed, inspected, and properly trained to handle medication and emergencies.

Pet Owners: Please Read Before Boarding at Puppourri Pet Resort…read more Our cat was boarded at Puppourri Pet Resort from September 26-29, 2025. When we picked her up, she had a large untreated wound extending across her upper back and neck area, serious enough that we had to take her directly to the emergency veterinary hospital. The Manager of Puppourri has acknowledged that during her stay, our cat was kept isolated ("locked up") and did not receive her prescribed daily medication. We were never contacted or informed about her condition while she was in their care. They did not bother to call us to let us know she was covered in blood, in pain, and alone. They did not even try to get her any kind of help whatsoever and instead locked her up. The Emergency veterinarian confirmed that the injury required immediate medical treatment and that she continues to need ongoing wound care. She requires veterinarian care every 2 days so far and we do not know if our kitten will survive or not. We have spent over $2,000 since she was injured at Puppourri Pet Resort. We want to do our part to ensure that no Pet is mistreated and neglected and we have filed complaints with the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture (Bureau of Dog Law Enforcement), the local SPCA/Humane Law Enforcement, and other agencies, and are taking legal action to help ensure no other pet endures something like this. Please verify that any boarding facility you use is properly licensed, regularly inspected, and trained to handle medication administration and emergencies before leaving your animal in their care.
