Our initial interview took 90 minutes because Stephanie really cares about the well being of all of the pups. The place is spotless and we receive a video every time she is there. We also love the fact that overnight care is in a caged free environment. They also offer dog grooming which is great! We are so appreciative of My BFF and the staff.

I trust her completely with my 2 cats and 1…read moredog, as well as with watering our plants, taking in mail, etc, etc. Her rates are very reasonable, and she'll travel through much of Rhode Island, especially the Providence area. Jill's vet tech skills also put our minds at ease while we're away. Should anything happen (which hasn't happened yet), I trust her completely to make a quick and responsible decision about how to handle any situation thrown at her. My cat was diabetic, requiring 2 insulin needle injections daily. Jill put me at ease before I'd even met her in person because she had cared for her own diabetic cat. She knew the kind of care, patience, and monitoring necessary for special needs pets. When we go out of town, we make arrangements over e-mail, and then receive text (or e-mail updates) while we're gone, sometimes with pics of our pets attached. Jill is incredibly responsive, over phone, text, and e-mail. For me, full communication is key. In addition, there is always a handwritten note from Jill when we return, which provides a full rundown of the pets' activities. Our apartment looks exactly as we left it. Most importantly, Jill knows animals. We have a couple shy pets, and she knows when not to push animals if they're not ready. But honestly, even the shy pets warmed up and trusted her quite quickly. That's my favorite part of working with Jill - knowing the bond she forms with each of our pets, on the terms that are best for each of them.

There are not enough words to describe how amazing Charles is with pups! He has more than a decade…read moreof experience working with all types of pups, including those that may need a little more support, and only uses positive reinforcement. (Luckily, he is also pretty good at training the humans too!) He has been working with both of our dogs since they were baby pups (now 2.5 years old and 6 months) and has been instrumental at helping us work on our loose leash walking, stranger danger, confidence in public, and being a polite pup all around. If you need training or walking support, definitely reach out to Charles - he's super dependable, a fantastic trainer, and most importantly, loves each of his dogs clients like they're his own!

Don't waste your money! Wish I had read the horrible reviews but I had brought a dog for training…read moremany years ago and had a stellar experience so I didn't do any research this time around. That teacher is no longer there, wish I had known. No mention of what to bring to first class, luckily I had a sense of what to bring. Class was lackluster, nothing you couldn't get from any book. Play time the first class was pretty successful but at the second class things got a little too heated and when I asked for help breaking it up the teacher instead just kept shaming me and belittle what was happening. To be clear, I bring my puppy to the dog park often and know dogs can play rough but when there is BLOOD on your dogs ear, a HUMAN gets BIT it's time to break it up and not go into the origin of the word BITCH. You sign away any chance of putting responsibility on Canine Mastery so I wasn't willing to see how far this was going to go so I picked up my puppy. Teacher immediately tells the class that's the worst thing you can do but what choice did I have if they were not going to help. The next day I reached out to have a discussion and despite not feeling heard I was fine to return to class the following week. Then I got a giddy call from the teacher/ owner that she had called most everyone on the class to get their sense of the situation. How disappointing and disgusting!! They didn't see the look in my puppy's eyes as she was darting for help nor did they see the gash in her ear that took a solid MONTH to fully heal. If you do decide to take a chance I would ask for teaching credentials because I doubt they exist.

About 10 1/2 years ago, a good friend and dog trainer (Anne) recommended Canine Mastery (CM) to…read moreme. Since then, I have taken two puppies through all their puppy classes, and three dogs have regularly attended agility classes. This week, yet another puppy completed Puppy Kindergarten and will commence with future courses in....well, I haven't decided that yet because CM has so much to offer. This place is amazing. I have had classes with the owner, Kathy (Puppy Kindergarten), and several of other instructors including Kathleen (for other puppy classes) and Joy (for trick classes) most recently. Even with my reactive dog, Kathleen was instructive, professional, and patient. Deb is by far the most patient agility instructor I know. She gets to know every dog and every human client so well that I feel like I'm taking private lessons even when I'm not. She knows that I like homework so she's always giving me ideas about things I can do to make improvements even in the dead of winter in the house. I really appreciate the non-judgmental atmosphere there because let's face it, we are not all the best at this stuff. You just can't get a bad instructor at Canine Mastery. An added bonus taking classes at CM is the other clients. They are so supportive and enjoy their classes so much that you get to see the best side of people with whom you take classes. I always feel like I know the other people in my classes even when I really only know their dog's names (shhh, don't tell them I don't know their names). Whenever I have a question about bad weather cancelations, or anything else, I email Joy or Deb and voila! I get an immediate answer. I wish every business were this responsive. Could you imagine cable companies or doctors doing that? You never feel like you're left out in the cold at CM. Let's talk about money. I have taken classes even recently at other facilities just to try them out and every one of them has been more expensive. (Hey CM, don't get any ideas!). Moreover, I felt a little less able to connect with them when necessary, and sometimes their teaching styles have been a bit too competitive for me. That said, most of the agility students in Deb's agility classes are competing with the best of them and making good headway. It's all about what you want to get out of your training for CM, and of course, what's best for your pup. Who knows, maybe my new pup will be into nose work or something else I've never tried before. Regardless, I know exactly where to go to learn something new. Canine Mastery is indeed just that - masters at working with you and your dogs. Moreover, they are real people who absolutely love what they do. You'll love them too. Thanks CM! Judy A. Van Wyk, PhD.
