I enrolled my 4-year-old rescue, Dolly, in Pavlov’s 3-week board and train program, and I truly can’t recommend it enough. I was specifically looking for a program that offered daily, structured dog socialization (something surprisingly hard to find in Denver) and Pavlov delivered.Before training, Dolly wasn’t aggressive but displayed some dominant behaviors around other dogs (like humping), and I was concerned about how she’d do in a group setting. Thanks to Pavlov’s consistent and thoughtful approach, she learned to be calm and confident in the yard with the other dogs every day. Watching her progress through the daily Instagram reels was such a bonus!Her trainer, Quinn, was absolutely incredible. She listened to my goals, explained everything clearly, and provided personalized weekly updates that showed how much attention and care she gave to Dolly’s development. It’s obvious that Quinn deeply cares about each dog she works with and puts her full heart into their success.The changes in Dolly have been amazing — she walks calmly beside me instead of pulling; she has much better impulse control (especially around critters!); she knows to stay back when I open the front door; she can "park it" on her cot during meals and stay there until released, which has made eating dinner so much more peaceful.She was already a great dog, but this training gave us the structure and communication we needed to be a better team. I now feel confident taking her more places, and it’s so nice to be in control in a way that supports her growth.Our post-board-and-train sessions with Quinn have been just as valuable. She patiently walks me through the techniques, watches me practice, and offers real-time coaching—all with the same warmth and encouragement she showed during training.One important note: this program is not a magic wand. Pavlov gives your dog the foundation, then teaches YOU how to maintain it. You have to put in the work at home, but the results are absolutely worth it.If you’re looking for a professional, effective, and truly thoughtful training program in Denver, look no further than Pavlov. It was one of the best investments I’ve made for both me and Dolly!

We’re so glad we signed up for the two week board and train program for our dog. Our trainer, Madalyn, was fantastic. Throughout the program, she kept us well informed with great updates, making the experience even more reassuring. Our dog adored her, and we could tell she was in great hands.The follow up sessions were incredibly valuable. Not only did Madalyn train our dog effectively, but she also taught us how to maintain and reinforce the training at home. Her feedback was clear, helpful, and easy to apply, ensuring we could continue building on our dog's progress. Walks, which used to be stressful, are now so much more enjoyable for both us and our dog, thanks to Madalyn’s guidance.

Quinn and Logan have done an amazing job with our little guy.

Highly recommend Pavlov’s Board and Train program to anyone that’s looking for help training and caring for their furry best friend! Billie, my 3 yr old pup, recently graduated Pavlov’s 3-week program and I have to say, Billie became a SUPER-DOG! We no longer struggle with his leash manners and leash reactivity toward other dogs. Billie is now able to control his emotions, understands boundaries and able to hold his obedience commands in various settings, not just in our home. Many thanks to the Pavlov team and especially his primary trainer, Madalyn, for the attention and care that was given to Billie. Madalyn did an amazing job catering to his specific needs and teaching us the skills during our handover lessons. We also loved receiving the weekly updates with photos/videos! It’s great to know that we now have a lifelong trustworthy resource for all future doggie needs 🙂

We had such an incredibly positive experience with Caitlin during the Board and Train program with our Goldendoodle Nugget. We noticed immediate differences in his ability to go on walks while remaining obedient to our commands. He recall has also improved at all times. We are super happy we chose Pavlov and Caitlin for our pup!

We sent our 6 month old Toy Australian Shepherd to the 2 week on leash/obedience 1 training program and can not recommend Pavlov enough!! Everyone in our lives has noticed the difference in our pup and we couldn’t be more grateful! Our pup struggled with some confidence issues/separation anxiety and wasn’t the best walking on a leash but now he is comfortable being alone, socializing with dogs of any size, and can heel walk with any distractions (dogs, cars, bikes, runners, strollers, etc)! Corin has been the best trainer and we look forward to sending moose back for the off leash training! 😊
