I had a great experience working with faviola ...I have a Cane Corso, and she handled him with confidence, patience, and real skill. She took the time to understand his personality and helped me learn how to communicate with him better, not just give commands. I've seen a big improvement in his behavior and overall obedience. What I appreciated most is that she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with and makes sure both the dog and owner are set up for success. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy trainer. read more

Leaving my dogs behind when I travel used to give me so much anxiety. Durk and Simba are my babies, and the thought of them being somewhere unfamiliar always made it hard to enjoy my time away. That all changed when I found Fabiola. From the very first visit, I could tell Fabiola genuinely loves what she does. She treats Durk and Simba like they're her own. She takes the time to get to know their personalities, makes sure they feel comfortable, and gives them the love and attention they're used to at home. What truly sets Fabiola apart is her constant communication and care. While I'm away, she sends me updates and pictures of my boys having fun, playing, and training--it seriously brings me so much peace. Knowing they're not just being "watched" but actually thriving in her care makes all the difference. Durk and Simba get to socialize with other dogs, which they love, and Fabiola makes sure they're engaged, active, and mentally stimulated throughout their stay. She continues their training while they're with her, and it shows when they come home--they're happy, calm, and well-behaved. Fabiola doesn't just board dogs. She creates a safe, fun, and loving environment where dogs feel like they're part of her family. I'm so incredibly grateful for her. Thanks to her, I can travel with peace of mind knowing my fur babies are in the best hands possible. If you're looking for someone who will love and care for your dogs like you do, Fabiola is the one. I can't recommend her enough. read more

After knowing about Fabiola for a few years, I decided to take my puppy to one of her new FREE group training classes. Before I dive into this review, I will say- I am a dog trainer and have been for years. It's always fun to go to a different trainer with your own dog to learn new tips, tricks, and see different techniques! I LOVE Fabiola's handling and her connection with every dog (and person) she meets. Now I'll dive into my review. We started off with a Tuesday morning group class, focusing on having our dogs in a calm state of mind while around lots of distractions and other dogs. My silken windhound puppy, Vulcan, is more of an advanced level but I wanted to work on more of his engagement. Fabiola gave wonderful feedback to the whole group about this. We had a great time and Vulcan did so well! One thing I really loved during this class is Fabiola's observations- she is able to quickly assess which teams need a little more assistance and provides them with it. The next couple of classes we did were the free Sunday group training classes. I really loved the pack walk aspect to this training because I was able to work on loose leash walking in a new environment around other dogs and real world situations. For all of the classes I've attended, I've only seen happy humans at the end of the class. Every dog has made progress- even what may seem like a small victory to others. It's lovely to see a knowledgeable trainer make people feel like they're not alone in their training journey. The dogs are also happy and tired at the end of the training classes. Providing a free class is SO awesome and I wish more of the community knew about this class! Having a dog can be tough so it's nice to see Fabiola make everyone feel seen and feel special. If I ever needed another trainer to work my dog or do daycare or boarding, I'd go to Fabiola! read more

I can't say enough great things about Fabiola! She not only taught my pup new skills, but also gave me the confidence and tools I needed to keep reinforcing them at home. The progress we've made is incredible! She hasn't just trained my dog, she helped build a bond between us that feels stronger than ever. Her kindness, patience, and genuine love for dogs shines through in every session. I went from feeling overwhelmed and frustrated to feeling hopeful, supported, and proud of the progress my pup has made. Whiskey and I are eternally grateful for her! If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family and help you build an amazing bond, this is the trainer to call! read more

Highly recommend! :) Fabiola is such an amazing person. She's very passionate and puts in so much work and dedication with your pup She truly treats your dog as if it were her own and loves on them We boarded and trained 8 months ago, mainly for jumping and leash manners, but Fabiola also taught "place." This is my pup today. He still has it and truly learned/hasn't forgotten anything that Fabiola taught him! :) read more

I have a 100lb Bernese mountain dog who had a problem with being too friendly and jumping on anyone who made eye contact with him. I took him to Fabiola for board and train and the changes were instant. Barney now visits Fabiola very frequent. Her pick up and drop off abilities is amazing. Very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Any chance I get I recommend her. She has helped me not just with training but raising such a big bear. Pics below for smiles read more

We met Fabiola while walking in our dog in our neighborhood, we saw her Car offering dog training. Koda was about 4 months old when we started taking him with Fabiola for daycares, walks and recently a month long Board and Train when he was 6 months. What sealed us wanting to have Fabiola Train Koda was during her free consultation was her focus of not only teaching dogs Obedience but also Manors, Calmness, so that owners can enjoy having theirs dogs at home, outdoors around other people and dogs but still be calm. She works with both dogs and the owners because it works both ways. Owners have to keep up with the trainings. Fabiola offers so many services that owners should take advantage of before doing board and train like we did, it helps lay a foundation for the dogs to continue growing and learning. read more

Thank goodness we found Fabiola. She's helped us with training my very active and sometimes overly excited Australian shepherd/border collie pup. In such little time she helped her be less anxious and more confident in herself. I really appreciate all the updates I get throughout the day and seeing Keyla's progress during training. Before Keyla wasn't able to be calm in a kennel while people walked around freely as she would want to run and jump on people but now she's learning to love her space in the kennel. She loves Fabiola and I feel good knowing she's safe with her. Fabiola trains dogs so well I was very impressed with her own two dogs and love that my dog has the opportunity to learn from them as well. Also love that she doesn't take on too many dogs at once so the dogs all get attention and time to learn. 10/10 would definitely recommend! read more

Fabiola has truly transformed my puppy, Barbie, for the better. Her endless patience with my pup is remarkable, and she continues to work with her to this day. Fabiola is extremely professional in her work, and I appreciate how she offers additional activities for her clients and their pets, such as group activities, walks, and training sessions. I especially love the constant updates and photos she sends when Barbie is boarding with her--it really puts me at ease knowing my puppy is safe and having the time of her life. I highly recommend Fabiola Handled it. read more

So happy we found Fabiola! We have two blue heeler mix pups and feel so at ease when they're under her care, she gives us updates throughout the day which I love. Also love that she limits the amount of dogs she takes in daily that way I know my dogs are getting the proper care and attention. She's a great trainer and in so little time we have noticed improvement in our dog's engagement. Excited to see how my dogs will be a year from now. read more

Fabiola is amazing! She has been helping me with my 10-month-old pitsky, who has A LOT of energy. She gives the best updates throughout the day while my pup is at daycare with her, and is very responsive if I ever have any questions. Fabiola gives so much love to each fur baby in her care and makes sure we know exactly how to keep the training going at home so everyone's happy! Very thankful for having found Fabiola and to continue to use her services! read more

Fabiola is a one-stop shop for everything related to dog care, training, and psychology. Solo has been in her care since he was nine months old, and she has helped him grow, mature, and live up to his breed and pedigree. Most dogs and owners never find a trainer that can help them actualize the potential in both the dog AND THE OWNER. Fabiola is the exception. Because of Fab, I know how to be an exceptional mother to Solo, and Solo is good with kids, people, strangers other dogs, doorbells, vacuums, skateboards, grandparents, new places, resting, and the curious world around him. Don't waste your time, your dog's time, or your money with anyone else. You need her just as much as your dog! read more

I've had the pleasure of recently working with Fabiola for my 2 year old pitbull Kobe. Our time together has helped Kobe feel more confident and comfortable around dogs, so I look forward to more sessions with her! read more

TLDR: Fabiola is the absolute best! Many text updates/pictures, quick drop offs/pick ups. Educational conversations and introduces you to a plethora of resources like private trainings and group classes for socialization. Overall she not only wants to love on our fur-babies but she also wants us to be the best dog parents we can be for them! We have a Doberman that needs more care and attention than our parents and siblings can handle when we're out of town. We have never boarded any pets prior to coming across Fabiola! We always left them with grandma and got on the road but I knew my Dobie would give my mom a run for her money. I was skeptical (as any dog parent is) but I actually had the pleasure of watching @FabiolaHandledIt blossom via social media. The care and education she centralizes is really comforting and is what sold me!! That is exactly why I called Fabiola as soon as we began planning our summer trips. We took our first trip away from our Dobie in April and it went so well we felt confident enough to enjoy the sunshine quite often. Our Dobie Sirius has boarded with Fabiola once a month from April to June with stays ranging from 3-5 days. Sirius loves Fabiola so much and we do too! I don't think many people understand the stress that comes with traveling away from your dog, especially needy breeds, but I'm blessed to say that's a feeling of the past! We love you Fabiola!!! read more

I Found Fabiola on Yelp two years ago. She has help me train two of my dogs and i couldn't be more happy. My doggies still attend her doggie day cares and when I am out of town they stay with Fabiola. The thing that stood out to me the most was that during my dogs boarding, she treated him like he was hers. She made Pepe feel at home which made me feel at ease. Knowing that he was being loved and cared for made it easy to leave him with Fabiola for his boarding. Fabiola is amazing and I recommend her!!! read more

We love working with Fabiola! Working w/ pups is so clearly her calling - she shows so much love and enthusiasm and patience when working with doggos (and us). We have a pit who was 2 when we got her and super reactive towards other dogs. Fabiola both helped us with ways to practice and reduce the reactiveness and also just good tips and tricks for how to deescalate and advocate. We especially love boarding our dogs with Fabiola where we know they'll get GREAT care, some reinforcement of training, and a an environment where they're exposed to other dogs but not overwhelmed by them. We just recently got a puppy and Fabiola was one of our first calls :) read more

Fabiola is such a passionate and caring dog trainer. Who offers tons of knowledgeable for both me and my dog Bella. We both are satisfied with our encounter and the training Fabiola has done.

We've used Fabi for our training, for us and the pup! I love the evening gatherings at the park with a group it's always fun to meet new people and their pups. We also had the opportunity to use her boarding services and loved the daily updates of photos and videos they were all sharing so fun to watch and share. I would recommend you check her out to see how she can help you and your pups. read more

Amazing service and works so well with my two pups. I love also that when we board they also go through training. Fabiola also takes tons of pictures to show their adventures and progress so that I can keep my mind at ease while im away. 100% will recommend Fabiola Handled It! read more

We wouldn't be where we are without Fabiola! Last fall I was in a season where I was considering alternative options for Lola. I cried myself to sleep because I couldn't picture my life without her but I knew that something had to change. Enter Fabiola- she walked into our home and immediately Lola fell in love with her. I had done 2 other trainings with Lola before but none of them taught me how to be the best mom for her or even showed lasting changes in her. Fabiola not only brought hope to our home, but gave me great advice! Lola is still with me today and we continue to grow, with Fabiola by our side. She is the best and offers all of herself to helping and supporting her clients!! read more

I did a board and train with Fabiola for my two dogs and couldn't be happier with the outcome. She helped with leash pulling, loose leash walking, and dog reactivity on walks. Its been great taking my dogs out and being able to maintain their training from the knowledge I've gotten from Fabiola. She's very personable and very attentive to the needs of your dog. Highly recommend her as a trainer! read more

Fabiola trained my dog Kosmo, he was super mouthy and acted out, never listened. after a few days of her training he's a whole new dog!! So we'll mannered, no longer jumps or mouths, will sit in place until told otherwise. I can even have him off leash in public without him running off! I'm so grateful that she was able to flip his naughtiness around! read more
