Brianna and Taylor have helped us make much better lives for two verrrrry different rescue dogs. Brianna wound up training me more than the dogs, and really that was the key. She has wonderful communication skills with dogs and people. And Taylor's professionalism, warmth and willingness to help with every detail and any challenge have been invaluable and deeply appreciated. Brianna's encyclopedic understanding of dog behavior combined with her fluidity in decoding it for us has been so incredibly helpful. Her skills and intuition are pretty amazing. She absolutely speaks canine. Her enthusiasm for her work and the calm energy she radiates are contagious and extremely instructive. Both of our dogs (our older guy is gone now) benefited immensely from their work with Brianna. And we've had richer and dare I say less stressful relationships with both of them because we understand so much more, thanks to her. If you couldn't tell, I recommend Kapooch as highly as possible. Honest and lovely people doing great work. read more

Kapooch is 1000% the best place for our rescue dog, Keiko - she truly thrives there. The Kapooch method has been such a great fit for her, and we've seen real progress: she's noticeably calmer, more confident, and her listening has improved sooo much - especially her recall, which has been a game-changer for us. And Brianna is the absolute best. We trust her completely, and the peace of mind we have knowing Keiko is safe, understood, and genuinely cared for is priceless. If you're considering Kapooch, I couldn't recommend them more highly! read more

We were going to rehome our dog before we started working with Brianna. We had one session with Brianna and changed our minds because she was able to make that much progress so quickly. She was able to crate train him in ONE session, when we had been failing for months. She's helped us sooo much and I don't know where we'd be without her! we use Brianna (and Taylor) for boarding our dog every time we go away and always know he's safe and happy. we've recommended brianna to a bunch of our friends who have also had amazing experiences with her! she is a dog whisperer! read more

We had a wonderful experience with kapooch and Brianna. Our dog is doing so much better after just 2 hours of training and discussing her needs and continues to progress day after day. Highly recommend time with Brianna- you and your doggie will be better for it! read more

Taylor and Brianna are a fantastic team- I would recommend Kapooch to anyone. Taylor is super knowledgable, and helped set up a training session with Brianna after our detailed consult chat. Brianna came to our home to help our 6 year old mix with her walking, barking and anxiety in the house. Brianna is ... magic. She is so kind and professional, she answered all of our questions and in under two hours of training, our pup's behavior drastically changed for the better. We've been following Brianna's simple, yet incredibly smart and informative tips and tricks for just a couple of days and our dog is so much happier. She is now a pleasure to walk, and her barking has stopped. Brianna is a dog genius and a real pleasure to work with, I would not hesitate to set up another training session in the future to work on other things. I also really appreciated how the training is tailored to us, I do not feel any pressure to set up more sessions, I felt like she invested so much into this session and really made it worth our while. Brianna changed our lives- thank you! read more

(FYI this review is for Brianna / Kapooch's dog training only) Call her the dog whisperer... Brianna is magical. I had my first 2-hour session with her yesterday and in only 2 hours, Brianna was able to curb all of the bad behaviors from my pup that I have been trying to curb for almost a year. I was very nervous and skeptical before our session as it's really, but I mean REALLY hard to find a good trainer, but now I am a believer and forever grateful to Brianna for the work she has done on my dog. From the minute she came in, she was cool, calm, collected and completely knew how to deal with the situation... even when my dog was barking, jumping and testing her. My pup is a pit mix rescue and she's generally a very good and friendly dog, but at home, she has developed a lot of overprotective barking and anxious behaviors. She'll bark at everyone that comes close to the apartment, people talking in the hallways, my neighbors opening and closing the doors, even delivery people in the elevator, everything! I am sure I have become the nightmare of the building with my dogs incessant barking, and I don't blame them. She even barked and jumped a Brianna when she came in, but after our session, my neighbor, who my dog has never met came in and she did not let out a single bark or jump!!! My dog was calm as a cucumber. Aside from that, there were a few other problems like being scared of the vacuum, food begging, and just overall hyper, nervous energy with her. Literally, after 2 hours, ALL of her bad behaviors were gone! But of course, Brianna helped me get these issues under control but now it's up to me to continue the training with her and enforce the techniques she showed me. I can't thank Brianna enough and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her to anyone who is looking for a trainer. She is worth it. read more

Working with Brianna changed our lives! My husband and I recently rescued a pup who was having some issues on her leash on walks. Her walks had become stressful and we knew she wasn't enjoying them either. After just one session we have had remarkable results! Brianna is knowledgeable and kind and the Kapooch staff is efficient and wonderful. They were able to work with us despite some scheduling difficulties and Brianna came TO US! That made such a difference. We highly recommend working with Kapooch! Run, don't walk to book your training session! read more

Brianna is incredible. We have struggled with many issues with our very sweet but strong-willed dog. After a two hour training session with Brianna and a game plan for a four week reset with him, things are night and day with his behavior already after just a few days. Obviously the key to the long term success will be us consistently applying her lessons, but her demonstration and clear instruction has made it seem doable and way less daunting, and the short term success has made us believe we can help our dog become a calm, integrated member of the family. read more

My husband and I worked with Brianna to help us communicate with our 2 year old Pomeranian, Oberon. Within minutes of arriving, Brianna was able to quickly diagnose Oberon's behavior and personality and helped us understand him. She was very insightful, patient, and had lots of useful knowledge and tricks for communicating with our little beast. Oberon learned to chill out and "take a day off" from his self-imposed watch dog duties. We learned to be pack leaders and help set some new rules. Since working with her, our dog has been much more quiet and less anxious. Thank you Brianna! read more

Kapooch - Our dog, Oberon, chilling out. - Pet Training Near Me

Love Kapooch and have relied on them for a couple years now. Brianna's training sessions have always brought progress, and you can tell she tailors her approach to you and your dog specifically. It has very much been worth it to me to have used a trainer in the beginning. She is very generous and patient, you can tell she works with all kinds of pet owners. I like that she is honest and straightforward, she's a professional and an expert. I only use Kapooch for walks because I trust Brianna and her walkers. They are so on top of the details, which sets me at ease. Any time I've asked a question or asked them to do something in particular, they are quick to respond and let me know. The key to my neurotic heart. I like that my dog is walked with other dogs, they're all dogs that Brianna knows are well suited for group walks. And it's such a big deal to me that his walkers are aligned to his training/style of walking, so I know that for each walk it's reinforcing the training I do with him. I love the app they use for scheduling and getting updates post-walk, simple and easy to use. Some of the things Brianna has helped me with are: which tools/collars/leashes to walk with, how to keep from pulling, waiting patiently and letting other dogs pass, barking at a vacuum, nibbling while being brushed, and separation anxiety. I hope to board with Kapooch in the future as well, just haven't had the opportunity. Besides my dog-owning parents, I'm not sure who else I'd trust leaving my dog with besides Brianna. read more

As first time dog owners my partner and I contacted Kapooch to help set a plan of training for our 3 month old basenji, that we have had in our home for four weeks as of today, we saw Brianna and she was amazing. She taught us what to do in situations where our puppy was trying to bully us and how to handle him now so he doesn't develop further behavioral issues as he gets older. I can't recommend her enough, day one after seeing her he is already showing signs of better understanding better behavior and he is already a bit calmer than he was yesterday before we met with Brianna. Again she is by far the BEST! read more

I wish I had found Brianna at Kapooch sooner... When I rescued my mixed terrier, Holly, I didn't know what it meant to own a reactive dog - let alone a dog that reacted to every single dog she saw, big small, male, female - it didn't matter. She could clear a city sidewalk with her growls and lunging and she only weighs 16 lbs. My life became incredibly stressful and I ended up paying an incredible amount of money to trainers to try to change her...but after two years nothing had helped. Then a co-worker told me about Brianna at Kapooch and I cant even describe how it changed my life and Holly's. To start with, Brianna didn't try to sign me up for a pricey package deal before she would meet with us and her prices were very reasonable. She is so intuitive about dogs and people. She was able to immediately correct Holly and also give me tips on what I was doing wrong. Holly was reacting to my stress as much as she was reacting to other dogs. That first day, she got Holly to walk by dogs, even lie down by her dog Dexter and not react at all. It's taking me longer to be able to handle Holly like Brianna does and I'm still learning - but after 5 training sessions, we are nearly there and I cant believe the pleasure of walking her now. I live in Manhattan but Kapooch is worth the extra trip out to Queens or the cost of them coming to Manhattan! read more

Brianna is simply amazing. She is a real leader and it shows in her work with dogs and the humans that love them. My husband and I have used her as both a trainer and for her dog walking services for almost 2 years. Our Teddy is a fairly well behaved, mostly submissive pup but his Jack Russell side sometimes gets the better of him. So, he used to pull us when on leash and if he gets too excited around other dogs, he'll chase and nip. Brianna showed us how to be the boss and got Teddy walking either beside us or behind us. She showed us how to control him when he's out of control around other dogs. Exercise and discipline then affection. Yeah, she's trained with Caesar but she's really made the method her own by her constant work with dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments. She's also an extremely decent, reassuring and fair person, she'll answer any and all questions we have about Teddy in a timely manner. She offers the occasional free pack walk in Astoria Park to all her clients as a way of us bonding with our dogs as well as other people and their dogs. It's really empowering to walk your dog calmly in the midst of a huge pack of other calm dogs. She does all these things because she really cares about dogs and their humans. Her family helps out a little with her business so it really is a intimate, team effort and she's also very careful when screening assistant dog walkers. There's always an update after walks and the rare instance when there is an issue, he's sick or limping, etc., she and her team tells us right away. I never, ever worry about Teddy when he's with Kapooch. Brianna has helped us enjoy our time with our Teddy more and he's also a much happier dog for it! He loves spending time with her and her extremely well behaved pitbull Dexter. (He's so damn cute!) Any dog of any temperament, not just aggressive or fearful dogs, would enjoy being trained or walked by her. We feel so lucky to have found her and we hope her business continues to grow and flourish. read more

Kapooch - Our Teddy in the middle with the big ears and his Kapooch crew. - Pet Training Near Me

We love Brianna so much! She is incredibly flexible and always accessible for advice and input when trying to make new decisions for your pup. Her sister Taylor, who also works for Kapooch, was so awesome and accommodating when I first reached out about dog walking - they truly care about helping you. Regarding training, our dog responded so quickly with Brianna. She has so many resources and will give you many different options to try until you find the right fit. She goes beyond the usual positive reinforcement training and uses your dog's personality and her extensive experience understanding dog psychology to better train your animal! We are so grateful for the entire Kapooch team! read more

I can't recommend Brianna enough. We contacted her to get some help on "recall" for our 1 year old lab mix, Addie, and we ended up getting way more than just that. It wasn't just about the command "come," it was really about changing out entire relationship with our dog. We honestly didn't think we needed work with anything else, but even after the first session with Brianna, Addie was much more attentive, respectful, and perhaps most importantly, easier for us to work with! Logistically, I found Brianna to be extremely fairly priced, and respectful and flexible with the appointment times. We did one session that was park/indoor training combined, and she didn't factor in the 10 minute car ride to and from the park/finding parking into our session time. When I had questions during the time in between our two sessions, she quickly answered my text with a thorough phone call, which after seeing that other trainers charged extra to have "phone call access," was unexpected and much appreciated. Overall, Brianna is an incredible resource, and I would recommend her to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and professional trainer. read more

Our dog, Mickey, is a sweet, shy rescue. When we first got him, he trembled and hid and did all sorts of strange behaviors we couldn't understand. Mickey had made lots of progress over the years, but his time with Brianna was truly transformative. The biggest miracle is that he has become calm and confident. It feels like a miracle! In the moments when his insecurity comes up, Brianna helped equip us with adequate ways to communicate with him, to let him know we're in charge, so he doesn't slip into his insecure dominant mind frame. We were very close to considering doggie xanax or prozac, but after spending some time with Brianna, we're not even having that conversation any more. She's a pleasure to work with, a great listener, and impressive to behold in her command with our Mickey. We're excited to work with Brianna more to keep the progress going. read more

I'm a first-time dog owner, so when my family's new rescue pup started exhibiting some behavioral issues, I knew I needed to consult a professional. When I scheduled the appointment with Brianna, I primarily wanted to provide relief for my dog's anxiety and subsequent minor aggression, but she was able to facilitate a behavior overhaul I didn't even know he needed. Brianna's style is old school and foundational, and she's not going to ply your dog with treats to make it perform commands or tricks. In our case, simply teaching our dog to sit or heel would have been putting a bandaid on the underlying issue, and Brianna knew that instantly upon meeting us. She pulled no punches in letting me and my fiance know that our behavior was part of the problem, and while that was a little hard to hear, within 10 minutes of beginning the session I knew she was 100% correct. My fiance and I were not pack leaders; she showed us how to correct that so that our dog behaved better across contexts--not just when exposed to anxiety-provoking stimuli. It took me part of our session to become comfortable using the correction techniques that Brianna uses, which can seem a little harsh to those unaccustomed to her method. That said, our dog is a mix of several working breeds and he needed structure, not treats, to change his behavior. Brianna's training style was absolutely the right choice for him. After just one session, he walks on his leash like an angel, passes people and other dogs with ease, and has even stopped fussing with our cat. I cannot even explain how the atmosphere in our home has changed; I never would have imagined that our dog, with just a little intervention, could behave this well. Keeping him on the right track requires persistence and commitment, but the results are worth it. read more

We only found Brianna a couple days ago, but our dog Stella has already done a 180 change. She used to bark and growl at new people and new dogs out of her own insecurities (she was a rescue) but has quickly changed her tune just 1 day in her training services. Brianna is incredibly accommodating and flexible with scheduling and her prices are extremely reasonable for the level of service she offers. This is not a regular dog walker people, she is passionate about what she does and incredibly knowledgable and educated in dog psychology and behavioral studies. I know my pup is in good hands anytime she's with her and her team. Highly recommend! read more

Amazing service and rates! We have two Maltese dogs (Nibbler & Riley) and were looking for someone in Astoria to walk and potentially board them while we were away on vacation. Naturally we looked at a couple of options, and accidentally came across Kapooch. After speaking to Brianna (owner) for a few minutes we were immediately convinced we could trust her. She made us feel very comfortable, and her care and attention were immediately obvious. We started by having Kapooch walk our dogs twice a day (we would get cute photos and notes showing our dogs having fun). We were so happy and comfortable with the service, that on a recent vacation we had Kapooch walk and board one of our dogs. Nibbler was taken care of so well while Brianna watched him, he even got to socialize with other dogs, and became very comfortable around them. That's a tough task for him, since he's not around strangers' dogs often. Bottom line, if you're looking for someone to walk your dog(s), board them, or even do some training, Kapooch is an amazing service, with good prices and a very flexible schedule. On top of that, Brianna is very personable and is a natural with pets! read more

Paws down, the best dog walking service in Astoria! Brianna and her team have been OUTSTANDING! For the past year and then some, they have gone above and beyond for both my dog and me. They are incredibly flexible when it comes to your schedule, offering the option to feed my dog during his daily walk and make sure his water bowl is full of clean fresh water. Every dog owner's first concern is the safety and well-being of their pup, and Kapooch puts your mind at ease. The city (even Astoria) can be a dangerous place for a young dog, with tons of distractions, and they make a point to take care of your dog as if it's their own. My dog not only got the benefit of some amazing dogwalkers, but learned valuable skills by walking in a pack of dogs that are also receiving the same care and attention. I always got an update and a great picture of my dog, and the Kapooch team was never out of reach when I needed to speak with them. If you want your dog to be taken care of AND also improve on their obedience/walking, this is the service for you. They offer a variety of length of walks, and are quick to update you when the weather may pose a problem so you're prepared for anything. If Kapooch ever extends their dogwalking to Manhattan, I'll be the first in line! P.S. They do boarding as well, and it's terrific! read more

If you're looking for the best dog walker, you're on the right track! I've using Brianna for years now. She is always on time and super patient with my wild dog. Before Brianna my pooch was wild and did not listen to me. Our walks were hell. I was about to give up. She taught me how to act around my dog and how to walk my dog. She is the "true" dog whisperer. Funny enough she actually goes to Caesar's trainings you know the guy that had that show. She continues her education in walking and taking care of dogs. How many places actually go for training. NONE! Use her! You won't be sorry. Woof woof! read more

I had has a great experience . Briana help me train my dog And did a great job. And Leif is great. Dog walker.

Wish I had gone to Brianna sooner! I was having some challenges with my four year old dog reacting negatively to other dogs on walks. Brianna quickly assessed the situation and taught me techniques that would help me convey proper behavior to my dog. Her knowledge and communication style made it easy for me to implement small changes that have a big impact on my dogs behavior. Highly recommend a session to address any undesired behavior. read more

Brianna has been walking our dog and sometimes doing an occasional doggie sleep over (at her place) for about 3 years now. I recommend her and her people highly. In a world where it is so difficult to find competence, Brianna is unbelievably competent and dependable. She has never missed a beat with us in three years. Great communication and follow through. I would trust her with pretty much anything. She and her crew will text us when the walks are complete, and sometimes send great pictures of our dog and the other dogs on the walk. She's also a great dog trainer and helped to teach us how to train our dog properly when she was a puppy. I can't say enough about Brianna and Kapooch, and I'm not surprised at all to see an overall 5-star rating for her on Yelp. read more

My boyfriend and I recently rescued a dog. She is generally a good, sweet, dog, but we wanted to take care of some nipping issues. She was also too energetic when getting ready for a walk, pulled on the leash a lot, and wouldn't listen to basic cues. We saw a transformation in Willa just within the first 2 hour session. She is much better on the leash now (we still need to correct her some), and it's much easier when I'm leaving or getting her ready for a walk. She still gets excited and jumpy, but will calm down with some patience and assertiveness from me. She also nips me a lot less, and that's something I am continually working on with her. Brianna did an awesome job, and I know with our continued work using her advice, Willa will improve even more. I 100% recommend Brianna. read more

Brianna is amazing. When we adopted our rescue he was timid, anxious and couldn't be left alone. We felt bad and allowed him on the couch and bed, and always made sure he was at daycare or someone was home with him. Our adoption agency and vet recommended Kapooch, and as I write this - 3 days after meeting Brianna - we have seen dramatic improvements with our dog. He goes into his crate calmly, is learning to walk properly on a leash, and improving his confidence. Even though he was "good" on the leash before, Brianna showed us places he should improve and how all aspects of training are intertwined. We are excited to see how the progress continues! read more

I brought home a 10 month old shih tzu, and as a first time dog owner, I was really overwhelmed. I decided I needed some experienced help for both Biggie (my new pup) and myself. Thank god for Brianna from Kapooch. She came by the same day and really helped by laying her imprint on Biggie and then teaching me how to build on the basics. I'm genuinely satisfied and relieved! thanks for everything Brianna! read more

Brianna is fantastic, I would definitely recommend Kapooch to anyone in the area. She has been walking our rescue pitbull puppy for a few months and we have seen a huge improvement in her on-leash behavior. I recently walked with Brianna, my puppy and a few other clients and was amazed at how good they all were together. Our puppy is very eager to play and we've had a hard time breaking her focus/getting her to calm down around other dogs. Brianna taught us techniques to help her calm down and put her attention back on us. She has really been amazing, we feel so lucky to have found her! read more

Brianna and team are so great. We are thankful our neighbors in our building referred her. We adopted our 1yr old pup three months ago and she has been going on group walks for about two months now. Brianna texts me updates after every walk and also went the extra mile to wipe up a pee spot in our apartment when Maya escaped her gated area. Brianna is also very helpful when I have a question about Maya's house training. I would highly recommend Kappoch! read more

Brianna has changed the relationship between my dog, G, and I. G is sweet as can be, but also a dog reactive and easily excited Blue Nose Pit. Within 10 minutes with Brianna my little G was changing for the better, and so was I. Brianna showed and explained how G and I communicate what we want; how to understand G and what G was getting from my body language and commands. Demonstrating infinite patience in our training sessions, Brianna has improved my life with G, and my pup actually has friends now! That's something I couldn't make happen on my own, even with the library of training books I've accumulated these last three years. Where there used to be anxiety surrounding our walks there is now calm. Instead of avoiding situations we walk right into them prepared with what Brianna has given us and treat it as an opportunity for improvement. The only regret is that I didn't start working with Brianna sooner. Brianna is the truth! read more

Brianna/Kapooch made being a dog owner possible in NYC (without a backyard!). Our dog was very reactive, and we had been doing months of training with limited improvement. We couldn't take our dog anywhere, we could barely walk her outside, and had mini anxiety attacks every time one of her triggers (mainly other dogs) went by. After one session with Brianna and learning how to meet our dog's needs (mental and physical exercise), using the proper tools (in our dog's case a prong collar), and nurturing calmness at home, we saw immediate results that only got better and better with time. At no additional cost, Brianna kept in contact with us via text, answering our various questions and soothing our insecurities about whether we were doing what we learned correctly. We saw improvements in our dog that went above and beyond our main concern (reactivity) and she turned into a all-around perfect, calm, loving, relaxed, well-trained pooch. 3+ months later, we now enjoy long walks even in challenging, crowded, and noisy city environments, take her to the park's off-leash hours, play fetch, quietness at home, cuddles when invited, greets people well, greets dogs well, gets along with other dogs for long periods (has fun in day care!), etc. Thank you Brianna!! read more

Brianna worked with my reactive dog to get her able to walk with other dogs. My dog is still reactive but to a much milder degree, and she loves her new doggo friends. My dog loves Brianna and all of her walkers. Quite often, even though I pay for 30 minute walks, they take my dog out for 45+ minutes. I am moving out of their service area and sad to be leaving them, but highly recommend Kapooch to anyone in Astoria. read more

Brianna changed our lives. We have two dogs that were aggressive to other dogs, that's right "were". Within three and a half hours we saw an immediate change. I recommend her with all my heart. read more

Yes, all of these glowing reviews are well-deserved. My vet recommended Brianna after my rescue dog Appalachia -- who's incredibly sweet with people but was very territorial with other canines -- nipped at another dog in my building. Without exaggeration, Brianna deduced the problem within minutes of walking into my apartment, and by the end of my first two-hour session with her, she had given me all of the tools I needed to correct the situation, which was 98-percent about my behavior when I was walking App. She even brought her own dogs out so that we could create real-life situations that allowed her to observe App and me and give me real-time feedback. The training she provided was so effective that I never even called her back for the follow-up session that was included in the package I bought. Appalachia now socializes much, much better with most other dogs, and if I ever run into another behavioral issue with her, I'll call Kapooch in a heartbeat. read more

We rescued a 1.5 yr old Lab/Pit mix about 6 months ago. While he is generally a really great dog, he has some issues interacting with dogs he does not know. This behavior can range between a light bark or pulling on the leash to a full fledged fight (of which he has been in several that left him with cuts, wounds and scars). We booked Brianna's services from Kapooch after Beuford bolted across the park and picked a fight with another pooch. We had enough of that behavior fearing it could escalate into something very serious where Beuford may really hurt another dog or, even accidentally, another person. We were able to meet with Brianna a day or two after the incident. We cannot speak for her dog walking or boarding services but as a trainer, she is top notch. We knew going into this that a big part of training was working with our behaviors and how we interact with Beuford. We purchased the multi-visit package which incorporates one 2 hours long initial session followed up by an additional 1.5 hour long session at another time of our choosing (though she did mention that we could have broken the time up however we wanted as long as the sessions gave her enough time to observe Beuford and us and teach us some techniques). Our initial visit was long, but thorough. She spent the first half hour talking with us about our concerns and issues, recapping anything we have done in the past to help control his behavior. She then observed our interactions with Beuford both indoors and out and brought along her dog to help out with some of the practice. Brianna's review is simple, she is thorough, thoughtful, patient and direct. It is obvious she cares a great deal about what she does and made the training process easy, stress free and even a little fun. Our dog has completely transformed. He is more calm at home and on our walks, no longer pulls on the leash nor overreacts when meeting new dogs. He is still learning and finding his place in our pack but it has only been three weeks and two sessions since we started working with Brianna. If you want a great dog trainer that is easy going, flexible and incredibly talented then you should work with Brianna! It is likely we will need additional pointers in the future and we will always work with her. read more

I would 100% recommend this service. I found Brianna online and was skeptical about allowing a stranger into my home while I was not there. I couldn't be happier with the results. She made me feel very comfortable that my dog would be properly taken care of while I was away for a long weekend and I've actually continued to use the service daily. The prices are very reasonable and In just 4 days of being away for vacation and her working with my dog, Luna, her walking has improved 100%. She has even gone above and beyond to get Luna interacting with other dogs and she is now a pleasure to walk myself. If anyone is looking for animal boarding, daily walks or training I would highly recommend Kapooch and I have made it clear I would have no problem being a reference if any future Clients request one. Try out Kapooch if you're interested and I guarantee you will be very satisfied with the service! read more

Brianna and Team Kapooch get the highest praise. First a bit of a background story, we have a rescue poodle blend and even though he's the best dog ever, I know he is wild and harbors aggression issues. For years we have side stepped the trouble issues and learned to deal. Upon leaving town for the holidays we reached out to Kapooch for pet boarding. Brianna scheduled an interview to meet our four-legged-fuzzy-son. When we met up she had a very inviting and calm demeanor, the perfect vibe you want for someone looking after your dog. After some background info she asked if it would be ok to do a quick training session. In about 10min I couldn't believe it - total 180. Instantly our pup was calm, relaxed and attentive. So of course I agreed to boarding. Fast forward to when we picked him up, TOTAL ANGEL!! From the barking at other dogs during walks, going crazy around the food bowl and separation anxiety he has made huge strides. In the following weeks Brianna checked in and offered some tips for guidance and how the training was coming along. Her love of dogs and animals is very heartfelt and would definitely recommend her services. read more

Brianna and her team are the best! Brianna is extremely attentive, thorough, detail oriented and really knows how to deal with hyper dogs like our 5 year old ball of energy puggle. She is a dog whisperer who knows how to create an instant bond with a dog. We have seen her in the neighborhood walking all types, breeds and sizes and they all seem to love her. We trust her so much, we gave her a key to our apartment. Highly recommend! read more

I can't say enough great things about Brianna. Whether it is dog walking or boarding, I know my dog is getting the care and attention he needs. Not only is our dog in great hands, she even trains him and is willing to help assist dog owners with their dogs in any way she can. I always recommend her services to my other dog owning friends. You know your dog is in good hands with her and can feel at peace with leaving your dog in her care! read more
