We love Pavlov and trainer Caitlin!!We participated in Pavlov’s Puppy Program with our Golden Retriever, Murphy, and it was such a wonderful and educational experience as first time puppy owners. We knew Pavlov was the right choice for Murphy’s obedience training a few months later. Murphy attended a 3-week Board & Train program that covered both on and off leash skills. Murphy is an exceptionally behaved dog, his walk in heel is perfect, his house manners are excellent, and his off leash skills are incredible. We have so much confidence taking Murphy anywhere with us and removing his leash for extra exercise and play at the park. Murphy’s trainer, Caitlin, was such a joy to work with. She genuinely cares for Murphy as her own and her commitment to his success stood out from the moment we met. We are so thankful to Pavlov and are pleased to now participate in boarding benefits and playgroup activities. Thank you Pavlov and Caitlin!!

I cannot recommend Pavlov enough!! We enrolled our mini-Bernedoodle puppy in Pavlov's Puppy Preschool and then did the 3-week Board and Train program with Caitlin. Our puppy is like a completely different dog. She went in as an excitable and psycho puppy and came out a well mannered little lady. I'm writing this review as we calmly relax at Wash Park and I am just so so thrilled that we can do that. I love the freedom we now have to take her hiking and camping with us, as well as just to include her in family trips to the local coffee shop/brewery/restaurant. Both Pavlov and Caitlin get a 10/10 from this very happy and satisfied customer!!

Our dog Pablo is enrolled in the board and train course with trainer Quinn. It’s been an amazing experience so far. Pablo has come a long way. He’s a very energetic and stubborn guy but he also aims to please. He’s not easy to train but he’s well on his way thanks to Pavlo and Quinn.

We did the board and train for our 5-month old border collie mix with Corin, and he came back a new dog! In 2 weeks he went from pulling us around on his leash to walking in a perfect heel, he has perfect house manners, and he’s making a lot of great progress on his recall.He randomly started struggling with his place command when he got home, and Corin was able to take him from complete aversion to his place to napping happily on it in 45 minutes during a handover lesson.They listen to your main concerns before you come, make unbelievable progress in 2 weeks, and support you with maintaining the training after. I cannot recommend highly enough!

Our experience with Pavlov was incredible!!!! We did the board and train program.They were eager to work with my prey driver GSP puppy, and accommodated us greatly! Quinn primarily worked with our dog, and loved our dog as of he was part of the family. They use positive and negative reinforcement, got our puppy on the treadmill, introduced the e collar, and figured out how to get him to heel when he wants to point at everything. The program is comprehensive, filled with socialization. Now we have him back we still have more session with them! Worth every penny.

Absolutely thrilled with our experience at Pavlov Dog Training!We brought our two Boerboels (South African mastiffs), Kevin and Perry, to Pavlov, and the transformation has been incredible. Madalyn, our trainer, is truly exceptional—one of the most confident and knowledgeable professionals we’ve ever worked with. Her calm, intuitive approach made a lasting impression not just on our dogs, but on us as well.Kevin and Perry light up every time they see her, and their behavior has improved dramatically. As large, powerful dogs, it was especially important to us that they be well-mannered and reliable—especially as we prepare to welcome a baby into our home. Madalyn gave us the tools and confidence to continue reinforcing their training, ensuring they’re not just obedient, but safe and loving family companions. Thank You Madalyn & Pavlov!Angelique & Mike
