Kim Kelly has probably trained six or seven dogs at least in my family, and we've not looked to anyone else in the last 20 years. When my family has to leave town without the pup, I drive an hour away to drop her off at Kim. Why? Because clearly I have trust issues. And I trust Kim completely. Great guy, reliable in a pinch, and just a wonderful trainer. read more

Kim Kelly Dog Training - My copilot was trained by Kim Kelly. - Pet Training Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

We had an amazing experience with Kim! Our chocolate lab puppy was driving us insane and we were struggling getting him trained ourselves. Having two young daughters treating the puppy like a wild animal made it even worse. We were at our breaking point and considering giving away the puppy, but thankfully a friend referred us to Kim. That man is a saint and a dog whisperer! After 6 weeks of training with Kim, our puppy is the best behaved young lab I have ever seen. I could never imagine a transition this dramatic. The best part is that our dog still has a puppy personality, but has simply learned how to listen and obey commands. I highly recommend Kim! read more

Kim Kelly Dog Training - Our sweet lab on his first bike ride. No leash and perfectly attuned to what we are asking. - Pet Training Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

Kim has been amazing for our 2 year old Maltipoos, Paneer and Chole. We adopted them in October '24 and they were extremely hyper, anxious and did not follow commands. We found Kim via google and yelp and contacted him for 5 sessions. In the first session itself, both of them calmed down, learnt the sit command with clicker and treats. By the of the 5 sessions, Kim had us train them with sit, down, place (be on their Kuranda bed), walk without tugging on their leash, inside (go into the crate), huge reduction on jumping on people, reduce barking and running to the door when the doorbell rang or people came home. They have become much more calmer and less anxious. Kim was just perfect for Paneer and Chole and us too. Thanx Kim! read more

Absolutely go with a certified trainer. After one day, my dog was completely different. Kim has a lot of knowledge and will teach you to be a proper dog parent. I have a couple of sessions left. Of course I went with the package, and my dog is less stress,es, much happier doggy, and much better behaved. read more

Kim Kelly has been training my daughter's Corgi/Aussie mix and has done a great job with him (and with us). He cares about doing things right, respects the animal and the owner and doesn't come across as critical or judgmental if we don't catch on as quickly as we want to. He is very process oriented, and comes to our house to train in our environment. He also has very reasonable boarding rates - where he can do additional re-enforcement of the work we do with our puppy and also keep him safe and active. Highly recommend! read more

Kim Kelly Dog Training - Birthday treat! - Pet Training Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

If there was a 6th star, it would be checked! I can't say enough good things about Kim Kelly. He has trained 3 of our dogs and they are all amazing, welcome, obedient members of our family because of what Kim was able to accomplish with each of them and they all had their issues. Kim is your guy if you need training or boarding. We call him the Dog Whisperer! read more

Kim Kelly Dog Training - Bubba and Harley - Pet Training Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

If Yelp offered a 6th Star I would give it to Kim. His complete knowledge & understanding of dogs is so impressive. We adopted Malu our (then 3 month old) Blue Nose Pitbull in February, and decided to look for a training facility to get him off to a good start. After receiving a few recommendations, it was clear that we were going to go with Kim's services. Best decision we have made. He recommended private in home classes for basic obedience, and leash walking. I won't bore you with every little detail, but I will say this...We explained to Kim that we wanted our Malu to be a Pitbull Ambassador. A dog that would give Pitbulls a good reputation, and he was very receptive to our needs. Within one to two minutes of each lesson, Malu knew exactly what Kim wanted and expected him to do. Then he focused on training me on how to reinforce the training with our little Pitty. He is a joy to work with, and Malu absolutely loves him. It goes without saying that I will use Kim Kelly Dog Training for any and all of our dog training needs. If you need a dog train...look no more...Kim is your guy!!! You would be foolish to go elsewhere. read more

Kim Kelly Dog Training - Here is our Malu...Just after starting his training with Kim. - Pet Training Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

Kim Kelly is the best thing to happen to Lacey and me. He has brought peace and confidence with his training. His cal m demeanor along with gentle yet firm philosophy has been a blessing. He is professional and personable. He is respectful with your time and schedule. His training and boarding is superb. Lacey'a first boarding ever, she felt right at home and gave me comfort so I could enjoy my time away. He treats her as his own and gives so many extra tips with training. He puts it in perspective that I'm the boss and not Lacey. lol I could Go on and on but if you want a trainer and get your money worth and more, give Kim a call. You won't regret it. read more

Kim is not only an incredible trainer, but also a genuinely great person to be around. We hired him to train our lab puppy and the results are nothing short of amazing. He will go to your house for training or meet you wherever you'd like. Within the first few minutes of working with our dog, she was walking on a leash like a pro and paying close attention to his directions. She had respect for him immediately and loved seeing him when he showed up each week. She was so comfortable with him that she stayed at his house when we went on vacation. Kim gets the results you want by working with your dog while teaching you how to continue training properly on your own. You will not regret allowing Kim to be an integral part of your dog's obedience and future safety. read more

We came all the way from Midland TX for our Goldendoodle to spend time with Kim learning obedience. Kim was highly recommended and he did not disappoint! read more

We used Kim Kelly a little over 5 year ago to train our scared lab mix. He was super great to work with. He trained us as much as he did our dog. He also helped us train with a remote collar which was the best thing we ever did for our dog. I rarely had to actually press any buttons on it because she was trained so well in the beginning. I would highly recommend Kim Kelly to anyone. read more

We adopted a Rescue dog from Hurriance Harvey. The Dog is a 2 year old female German Shepherd She had just had puppys and was a little skittish with Humans but not agressive. Kim came to our home and we got her through basic training: Kennel Trained, knows where her "place" is and responds to sit, down and heel. Makes her very easy to walk with, and be fun around the home and yard. Kim is patient, likeable andknows dogs very well with his years in the business. We are completely satisfied with his service. read more

We did a board-and-train with Kim for just one week, and our crazy-smart and hyper Brittany came back such a different girl. Before, we could not walk her on a lease and struggled with many problem behaviors. Since coming home, we were able to walk her on the first try, and we are finally seeing progress in her problem areas. When he came to visit the day after she came home, she was so excited to see Kim, and it showed how much he cares for the dogs he is working with. Not only did he work wonders with her, he spent time with us going over how to properly handle her to maximize her training. We are so grateful for his help in learning how to be the best leader we can be for our girl! read more

Kim Kellly has been working with our puppy for the last several weeks. He is so patient and knowledgeable! Our puppy has responded very quickly to Kim's training. Kim is very flexible and is always willing to answer any questions we have. We still have three sessions left but after only three sessions, Penny is doing amazing! I highly recommend Kim's training abilities! read more

I've taken two of my dogs here a Jack Russell and a Great Dane. We did the training while being (boarded) and Boom. Done. Then it was up to me to follow through. Since, I have recommended a total of 3 other dogs to Kim. And... now I have a new adopted pup that gets to visit Kim. :) He loves dogs, understands them and understands you. read more

Kim has trained several of my Australian Shepherds and a few other dogs for my family over the years. Results are nothing short of amazing- But always keep in mind, 50% of the training is for the owner to carry on what Kim teaches your dog. Kim gives excellent hands-on instruction for you to continue that training. He always shows pride in his work, and it shows in the results! I agree with other reviews on here, if a 6th star was a choice, Kim Kelly would get it. read more

Kim is everything one would want in a dog trainer. He is excellent in teaching us, as owners, how to elicit the behaviors we're after in our dog. read more

Kim is by far the best dog trainer I have ever had. His knowledge of dog behavior is just astounding. He came to our home for one of my dogs. He had her walking on a lease without pulling in about two minutes. He showed and taught me things I never knew of and I have had a lot of dogs. He also kept our dogs at his home while we went on vacation so they didn't have to go to a kennel. You cannot go wrong with Kim. If Yelp gave 10 stars I would give him that high a rating read more

KIm Kelly is the true dog whisperer. He uses gentle yet consistent training techniques that encourage - not intimidate- your dog to let YOU lead the pack. He has worked with my two golden retrievers and changed their behavior from jumping out of control dogs to furry friends that walk, not drag, you when you go outside. Bravo, Kim!! read more
