The Teacher's Pet

"We dropped out squirley golden puppy off to Kelly and her team a few weeks ago and picked up a well behaved boy. We are so happy with the love and care that went into his training. We got frequent updates, pictures and videos through his stay and his improvement was evident through each video. He got plenty of supervised group play and lots of individual attention. We continue his training at home and are so happy with how well he learned and how easy it was to implement the training into everyday. Kelly is so hard working and the love she has for the dogs and her company is evident. We highly recommend The Teacher's Pet and will definitely be using them again in the future when we inevitably get more dogs!"

"Kelly is amazing! Took my 4 month old crazy cattle dog to her and two weeks later he's so much calmer and he listens! (Most of the time, he is still a puppy after all). She's super knowledgeable and kind, but definitely corrects me when I (or puppy) do something wrong in the training. I have hope that I can continue on in the right direction at home. Would highly recommend her for dog training!"

"Kelly is a very knowledgeable trainer and resource. We needed guidance for training a service dog. Being in AZ for a limited visit, she worked us into her very full schedule. Witnessing how serious we were about working with our dog, she has continued to guide us through Zoom meetings, here in Oregon. She has been a constant support, responding to our questions very quickly while training. We are excited to work with her again, in person, during our upcoming AZ visit."

"Kelly and her Teacher's Pet are amazing. It was a friend who referred Kelly to us when we got our small dog and needed to leave for vacations. Part of her system is do some training first, and signing up for that was one of the best decisions we made. We love our Puffy but didn't have clue on how to train him. With her work, besides being a cute and lovable dog, he is now also super well behaved and gets plenty of compliments when we take him out with us. We still use Kelly services anytime we have to travel out of town and we know Puffy will be in good hands."

"Our dog has been benefiting from THE TEACHER’S PET since we first brought her to be trained 5/24 2019. Valentine, our mini Australian Shepherd, began her journey with THE TEACHER’S PET and Kelly Charais the owner. Through her training our dog for two weeks. Valentine learned to bark only at appropriate times. She welcomed her crate while we needed her out of our way. Stands while I bathe her in our shower. No biting, no jumping on people as she greets them. Leash walking without pulling us. Sits when I ask or down. Wait for food or doors. Redirects to place. Mounting to ride in car. We bring her regularly on Wednesday for daycare or grooming. Being seniors we are free to do whatever travels our health allows. Valentine loves coming each time for a half a day or two weeks. The loving home atmosphere and videos Assured us, yes she is happy and well cared for. The grounds are always clean and secure and the temperature of our climate our carefully monitored to keep her comfortable. Valentine loves playing with the other dogs and has learned to be around larger dogs as well as small ones. Happy new year . Thank you Kelly for improving our lives . Sincerely Cheryl and David Shaff."
