Sarah had quite the job with my puppies. 2 one year old boxers. One deaf. She is so patient and knowledgeable. She had to not only help train my puppies but train us!!!! Our dogs walked horrible and sooo easily distracted. They now can walk, heel, and stay after 4 training sessions 😊 Highly recommended 💕
Sarah is unbelievably in sync with animals!! I enjoyed her appropriate and kind mentoring of both me and my pup!! Sarah was able to confidently address every concern I presented and she was always professional
So happy I met her and got to work with her!
Sarah is a very impressive puppy trainer. I would definitely recommend her for any of your furbabies. She immediately saw what we could work on to get our puppies to listen more.
Sarah met with us to provide training for our six month old puppies. I’ve watching hours of dog training videos and learned so much more with her in one session. She was hands on with our dogs and walked us through training tips for recall, ringing a bell for potty training, sitting, staying off tables, and more. My husband and I were very happy with the guidance she shared and our dogs loved her. I highly recommend Sarah for anyone needing dog training!
Sarah was very strongly recommended to me by the owner of the service dog whom I asked where her dog received the training.
The very first consultation my 8 year old doberman and I had with Sarah exceeded my ( and Sarah's!) expectations. We were looking to see if at this age my Elsa will even be capable of learning to assist me in my handicap by picking up and returning to me objects after I accidentally drop them. I was speachless seeing what Sarah managed to "extract" from Elsa at the very first session.
Sarah has a very friendly demeanor and warm and great way with dogs rendering them relaxed despite the new environment. She is professional, very focused and dedicated to the dog she trains. She not only gives clear instructions to continue training at home but very importantly offers valuable corrections for dog parent's mistakes and clearly and concisely explains behavioral foundation of "dos" and "don'ts" demonstrating her thorough knowledge of canine behavior. It looks that after 2 sessions Elsa is very well on her way of being much more than a beloved pet in my current predicament.
In discussing training options (boot camp vs. Classes) Sarah proved to be very ethical and honest person recommending option that was most optimal to me and Elsa under our circumstances rather than what would have been most profitable for her. I am confident that under Sarah's expertise Elsa will become a great service dog. I also have comfort knowing where to turn for periodic refresher classes later on. Very highly recommend!
Sarah was patient with us both as Lady learned the commands and I learned how to give them. She was truly the best thing to happen to me and my dog! I would recommend her to anyone having training/obedience problems with their pup!
We soon realized we would need some support and helping her become the dog that we know she can be. On a whim, I gave a call and ended up with Sarah as my trainer. Before the four-session training we did at our home, and the week that Sasha spent with her trainer, every day was a struggle with many things that were challenging occurring such as jumping, chewing, biting, not listening, overall distracted behavior, potty issues, and more...
Within the first week, I felt extreme relief from the daily challenges, and it just got better from there. The biggest benefit was such as heel training, and the overall shift in focus from being distracted by everything around her, to being people-focused and a budding awareness that she needs to look to us first for her commands.
I am usually a 'do it yourself' person, but this is something I really needed help and support with, and not only does Sarah help, she is extremely supportive to the dog and the family to which the dog belongs.
This was the best part of her process; she treats the dog and the dog's family as a true friend and puts her heart into all the work she does.
We are so happy that we called, and we will continue to rely on her into the future when anything comes up that is a challenge or when we want to add something to Sasha's repertoire of skills.
As a trainer, Sarah is polite, professional, kind, honest, dependable, positive, supportive, realistic, inspiring, and hard-working.
If you wish you were having a better time with your puppy or dog, you'll be grateful for this service.
She took my 7+1/2-month-old AussieDoodle 'Hildi' for 2 weeks as I chose the 'away' training, known as Boot Camp (Board and Train). Sarah then spent time with me at the end of the two weeks to reinforce Hildi's training with Sarah right by my side.
Hildi came back a better-behaved, calm dog. She was able to follow the commands and directions with encouragement to the sweet tone of “Good Girl”. We also had Sarah train our 17-month-old male AussieDoodle 'Django', since Hildi was so well-behaved.
Sarah is my trainer for life. She is a phone call or text away for sure. I have two well-behaved dogs that I am proud to say were trained by Star Quality Dog Training.
Of course, I went and got another AussieDoodle, who Sarah agreed to train also. Can’t wait to see what 'Poncho' learns!!!
I met Sarah the first time, while working at Hobby Lobby, and noticed she was training a young dog. Then several more times over a few months, each time with a different dog/puppy.
I asked her about her business because I was very impressed how well every one of her “clients” were so well behaved. I asked if she thought she could help me with my Boxer puppy since he’s been a handful to say the least. She assured me that she could. We’ve had 3 hour long classes so far and WHAT A DIFFERENCE!! Cash has become so much more well behaved and calm.
Sarah has so much knowledge and tremendous patience that she makes classes easy and enjoyable!! I recommend anyone having difficulty with their dog to give her a call!! You’ll be happy you did!!
Just finished up our training sessions with Sarah from Star Quality Dog Training.
Daisy was reactive to other dogs, pulled on leash and would jump on folks who loved on her. Not anymore - thanks to Sarah’s guidance!
Sarah gave me the confidence and tools I needed to overcome our issues, in a judgement free and patient manner. 10 out of 10 - Highly Recommend!!!
Sarah came in and changed mine and my dog “Brutus” relationship in no time! It was amazing after one visit his demeanor changed. By the end of our time she had trained both of us!
We don’t realize how often we as owners do something wrong. Now I have a dog who sits, stays, lays down and heels. Brutus is a 3 year old with so much energy I didn’t know what to do anymore, I was pulling my hair out daily. Now working with Sarah I’ve learned how to use that energy for positive!
Brutus loves to do what I ask and at the same time I’m burning his energy and now he obeys! Sarah is a wonder and anyone with puppy issues or just wants to get ahead before it’s to late I will recommend 10/10!! Thank you Sarah!
Lilly is a 9 month old miniature poodle and has come a long way since training with Sarah.
We highly recommend her!
