    Birthday treat!

    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!

    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!

    Here is our Malu...Just after starting his training with Kim.

    See all

Due to pandemic, I found most places were only doing virtual trainings which didn't satisfy me, as this is my first dog. Luckily, I got in contact with CDT, referral from a friend who heard from a friend that they were awesome. From the first phone call (sorry can't remember who took it), they answered all my questions and addressed my worries when it came to getting the proper training. One of their trainers, Maxine, was able to fit us in her schedule on short notice. After that first private session, we learned so much! Skylar recently completed a 7 day board and train with Maxine and came back less nippy, almost potty trained and now showing default behaviors like sit anytime a human or dog walks by. We have a follow up with Maxine in a few weeks and can't wait! Aside from these private sessions, the owner runs a puppy support group on Facebook which is SO extremely helpful. Her instagram is very active, with tips every single day that help me in between sessions. Maxine was also super helpful in recommending a safe doggie daycare that uses the positive reinforcement approach. So thankful to have found CDT!

I picked Conscious Dog Training because the reviews show they have experience with pugs, and when Hemi had some naughty behavior that needed to be nipped in the bud, CDT stepped in and helped my husband and I better understand what was going on. I love the attention to detail and the customization done with these guys. Our trainer was Rebecca, and she showed up to our house ready to take on Hemi, who we learned, just needed boundaries and more structure in his routine. Training your dog is primarily the effort you make. So if you're ready to do the work, CDT is ready to take you on. They have a zero tolerance policy with electric shock therapy/shock collars, or anything leaning towards negative reinforcement.

Boarded our 5 month old puppy here for 11 days. Action Pack went above and beyond our expectations. They responded to our emails quickly and regularly sent photos of our pup. When we returned, our pup was happy and healthy. We now bring him for daycare once a week. He is SO excited when we drop him off in the morning and is happy and tired when we pick him up. Highly recommend Action Pack! UPDATE: this was supposed to be posted 10 yrs ago! I rarely use Yelp and only hopped on today to find a technician and saw this in the drafts. Well for 10 yrs we've been bringing our now 65-pound "Tibby" here for weekly daycare, birthday parties back in the day, and periodic boarding, and Tibby is still squeals when we turn into the driveway! Thank you for being a trusted partner in caring for our big sweet fur baby!

We were out…read moreof the state when a family member suffered a sudden medical emergency and no one was was available to care for his dog. Even though Action Pack was moments away from closing that evening, the employees stayed long enough to allow a family friend time to retrieve the dog from the home and bring to Action Pack. Action Pack was extremely accommodating throughout this entire ordeal - finding space for the dog and allowing him to be dropped off for an undetermined amount of time, even going into a holiday weekend. Unbeknownst to us, at the time of drop off, this dog had a severe flea infestation. The staff at Action Pack treated the situation professionally and compassionately. Not only did Action Pack completely eliminate the fleas, but they continued to care for him in the days afterwards- giving him multiple oatmeal baths and ointment to help provide relief for the skin irritation. By the time we got back to Texas and were able to pick up the dog, he was 100% back to his happy and healthy self. We are extremely grateful to Action Pack for helping us during this hectic and stressful time and have no doubt that the dog was well cared for throughout. We also appreciate the professional and courteous manner in which we were treated upon pickup. Action Pack is absolutely, hands down, the best boarding facility we have ever worked with.

I have a 1 year old medium sized mutt who lives up to his name Hooligan. I've never struggled so much training a dog in my life. I was getting ready to pull my hair out. I was really beginning to think about rehoming him. I took a leap of faith and decided to try the board and train program or as I call it Desi's boot camp. If you're anything like me pets are family. I missed him from day two (let's be honest day one was relaxing). I had such peace of mind knowing A Crate Escape is owned and operated by a veterinarian and her family. My favorite thing was at the end of each day I would get a doggie report card. These report cards are AMAZING! They put me at ease knowing Holligan was having the time of his life and being well taken care of. I never knew his tongue could stick out so far. I would receive pictures of him running and playing daily. They would tell me who his doggie playmates were and I'd also get updates and videos on how Hooligan's training was progressing. I was getting ready to give up on Hooligan but after two weeks with Desi he's a brand new dog. I will continue to follow up with doggie day care and a few group training sessions but A Crate Escape has made my life so much easier and I'm so happy Hooligan gets to rejoin me and my other dogs at home.

I still regret it a few years later. She was being buzzed for behaviors she didn't understand. It was punishment rather than training. The trainers drank the kool-aid and are inexperienced, The group classes were an absolute mess. Owners were confused and just zapped away without proper training and guidance, I pulled my dog out immediately. If you truly love your dog, and want to learn proper communication, consider positive reinforcement. The only situation I 'maybe' consider this is a pup with aggressive behavior. Otherwise, I would NEVER recommend this type of training. NEVER.

The owner does need to be diligent with taking their dog to the trainings (we kind of fell off at the end but it was okay) but as long as you stick with it, your dog will learn new skills and will be better behaved than before. We can literally walk our dog without a leash now, I never thought that would be possible. She will sit in her place when people come over and we are always getting compliments on how good she is. We can do things in the front yard and have her stay in the garage and she won't run after other dogs that walk by or other other people or children. She has learned to stay in her place for as long as we need her to be. It's funny because she was a really wild dog before and now that she's trained everybody loves her. overall the training here was worth it and we are really happy that we did it!

I have known Ally for around 5-6 years and she has taken care of our German Sheppard over the years and has given the same love, attention and affection to our dog that she shows her own pups. I would trust Ally with my dog's life, no hesitation. She is very in-tune with pet behavior and notices abnormalities quickly. She provides some of the best experiences for pups, taking them to beautiful open spaces to run around, on nice hikes or bodies of water, as well as good socialization. WARNING: Your dog may love Ally more than you after being in her care! Not only is Ally more than capable of taking care of all of your dog's needs, but she is one of the most pleasant and fun people to be around. I have been the lucky one knowing Ally all these years and would recommend her to anyone!

I should mention Ally took care of Kramer from when he was just a wee little boy to almost six years old. She helped me train him (although he obeys her more than me). Also, and this is super cool, Ally is a vet tech, so she was always quick to point-out when I needed to take Kramer to the vet. Okay Austin folk: y'all are some lucky SOB's to have Ally in your backyard!
