My senior dog can't take epic grooming sessions, and her hair was choppy and uneven after her last groom. Her ears and tail had been weirdly shaved, and I wasn't sure we'd be able to make her look normal again during her lifetime. The staff at Rover's is friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. The groomer we saw today has been grooming for 18 years, and had my sweet pup groomed in 45 minutes--and it's the best cut she's had in years. She did what she could to round out her ears, and to help set her up with a cut she can grow back into and look like herself again. My dog is fluffy, soft, adorable, and HAPPY! As a side note, all of the groomers there today were being so warm and friendly with the dogs in their care. I even saw one groomer sitting on the floor keeping a dog company while it waited for its owner. We will be going to Rover's for our grooming from now on!!

While every aspect of the program was fantastic, two things really stood out. First, the team genuinely cares about every dog--it's clear in everything they do. Second, this wasn't just a training experience for our puppy; it was a learning experience for us as owners, too. As first-time puppy owners, they gave us the skills and confidence we needed, and the progress our puppy made was incredible. We can now take him places and truly enjoy the experience. We initially signed up for six weeks but extended it by three more because of how much progress he was making--and because we knew the impact would be long-lasting. We're even planning to bring him back this summer for additional off-leash training (and because we're pretty sure he misses it!). I can't say enough positive things about the facilities, the staff, and the level of care they provide. They're always available to answer questions and show a genuine investment in each dog's success. It's also such a relief to have found a place we trust for boarding and grooming. Thank you, Found, for everything--you've truly changed our lives and our puppy's life!!

This is my first review on Yelp but Brooks has been a tremendous help with training my dog, Cooper,…read moreso I thought it was necessary to return the favor. :) I got Cooper back in August of 2018 as he needed to be rehomed for various reasons--my boyfriend and I were quick to realize that he had not had any form of training while at his previous home. Desperate for any sort of help, I researched dog training facilities and found Brooks. While the price was steeper than I was expecting, the 2-week board and train provided a foundation for Cooper that I would've never been able to accomplish in that amount of time. It was obvious that Liz, our trainer, really cared about Cooper's progress and she was very transparent in what I should expect Cooper to learn in the 2 weeks he was being trained. I appreciated that she was honest and upfront on what the expectations should be, instead of making grandiose promises in order to get my business. The 2-week board and train also came with 3 follow-up sessions with Liz to go over the training and to answer any questions I had. I thought these sessions were immensely helpful and I appreciated each one. Since then, I have continuously used Brooks for boarding and daycare, both of which have been great experiences. Cooper is always excited to go to daycare during the week and comes back a tired and happy pup. If I had anything to suggest, it would be to add cameras for clients to see their dogs. I would love to be able to watch my dog via webcam while I am at work. Overall, Brooks has been a lifesaver and I wouldn't have been able to survive these past few months as a first-time dog owner without them. A special thank you to Brittany and Liz for being so wonderful to work with! :)

It was a hard decision to let our 4 month old Iggy pup go to someone for 2 full weeks of board and…read moretrain, especially after falling so hard for our little guy named Kenny Beans! After speaking with several training programs, visiting some, and prayerfully considering what the right choice should be Madi Potts helped make our choice easy. Before we would trust anyone with our little 7.5 lb boy, we had to get a sense of one's heart. My husband and I were not looking for someone who could simply "control dogs" or "make them obey commands". We wanted someone who had a heart for dogs to have better lives with structure, less fear, and longevity due to possibilities that came with what training offered. My first inquiry call with Madi was pretty long, if I recall right. She was patient, understanding of my many questions, and willing to talk as long as I needed to feel she was safe to go to next step with. We started with a 90 min at home training session to see first hand and understand how she would personally be as a trainer with Beans. That training was stressful and also a relief as we believed we found the right person to entrust our boy to. When the day came for him to be picked up, both my husband and I were crying. It wasn't just about trusting a new person to take care of Beans, it was also the resurfaced grief of losing our whippet girl of 11 years just a few months prior. The "what ifs" where overwhelming, but we agreed we were moving forward. Madi also saw our "anguish" if you want to call it that. She quickly said she typically doesn't give an update for the first 24-48 hours but she would update us that evening. To her word, we got a picture of beans at the park and our hearts settled a bit. Throughout the two weeks, Madi was wonderful about keeping us up to date and answering questions as needed or as we annoyed her (lol we might have been a little over the top haha) She never hesitated to share and ensure our boy was learning, and struggling in some areas, but overall doing great. Now that he is back with us, we have already had one of our follow up appointments and are so thankful Madi was who helped us with Beans. He was so happy to see her and made her say goodbye before leaving (even though he was supposed to "stay", lol). Training is still a ongoing work daily, Beans still doesn't love his crate but is accepting he is safe and it's ok to not see us 24/7 (Italian greyhounds are Velcro dogs to the max!) This was an emotional, time, and financial investment that we continue to place priority on. I know many will say do not board and train an Iggy, but for our family, giving him and us the tools to have a successful life together was important. We did our due diligence and don't regret our decision. Actually we are extremely grateful we found Madi and Suburban K9. When she left after our last follow up session she looked at Beans, gave him a scratch and said "I love you". I have no doubt she does, for that I am thankful. It is my hope everyone will find someone as knowledgeable and kind hearted toward an animals as Madi is. Thank you Suburban K9 for helping us learn puppy manners with Madi. We are forever grateful.

I've never received so many text messages insulting me and my wife and calling me an "idiot,"…read more"fool" or "moron" in my life. I've had breakups that didn't have this much drama. We hired Fred to work our pitbull. She was difficult on walks and didn't always obey commands. Right off the bat, we got a bad vibe from him. During our first phone conversation, he asked a series of questions about my dog, claiming that he didn't need to even meet her and would know all he needed to based solely on my answers. Hence, if I wasn't sure about something or if I didn't have the information he was asking for because I didn't know or the shelter hadn't said anything to us, he would belittle me or be sarcastic, asking me how I couldn't possibly know the answer. Despite our misgivings, we decided to hire him for 12 sessions. During our first training session, our dog tried to attack him because he insisted on seeing how she would react if he tried to come into our backyard without an invitation. I panicked seeing her reaction and decided to fall in line, even after he insulted me and yelled at me for not being able to control my dog (even though he was the one provoking her) and threatened to quit. Looking back, I should have known better. Most dogs are not going to like someone trying come in uninvited, right? And maybe she sensed he wasn't a nice person and reacted accordingly. We've had plenty of people come to the house and she's been fine with them. Only Fred provoked that reaction. Go figure. But we were willing to give him a try since he claimed to have over 20 years of experience. And believe me, he leans on that 20 year thing hard. If you don't do things exactly as he tells you, he will criticize and belittle you. His methods have been described as "archaic" by our subsequent trainer, and really boil down to making you show dominance over your dog. He had me jab, knee and even kick my dog, saying that she could take it. My dog is tough, no question, but I felt uncomfortable doing this. Fred can be confusing with his teachings. He says that you have to be calm at all times since dogs pick up on emotions and will be tense if you are. But then he will constantly criticize you or question your commitment that one can't help but get stressed. He has cut short or cancelled sessions if he believed I was "projecting negative energy." And for someone who preaches consistency, he can be erratic when it comes to scheduling. Often, I would get a text on short notice asking if I could do a session later that day. Sometimes I could do it, but sometimes I couldn't. Sometimes, I would see him two times in a week. Other times, I would go weeks before hearing from him. He tried to do some instruction via video, which consisted of me recording him during a lesson and then recording myself and my wife doing the same thing. He blew up at us for not following his instructions to the letter and spent about 15 minutes berating me over the phone. He seems to think that I should have just been able to take it in stride, but he doesn't seem to understand that we hired him to be a teacher, not a bully. Fred seems to honestly believe that he is the only person in the entire universe that can help you. That's not hyperbole. He constantly criticizes people who train dogs differently, badmouthing their techniques and saying that they don't work. He kept me line by warning me that he was the only person who could stop my dog from snapping and doing something horrible. And he always belittled my dog, saying that she was mentally disturbed or unbalanced. I don't doubt that she's potentially dangerous (hence why we hired him), but keeping me on edge around my own dog would not seem to be compatible with his central tenet of being calm all of the time. Finally, after about five sessions or so, we decided to go in a different direction and he reacted like a spurned lover, sending me pages and pages of poorly-written text messages that were riddled with insults (when I stopped engaging with him, he even started texting my WhatsApp account to insult me some more). We had pre-paid for 12 lessons and he refused to refund us the balance of our money, despite previously offering to do so when he wasn't pleased with my effort. He even claimed that people like me were making him reconsider whether he even wanted to keep doing this. I mean, if he's having those kinds of doubts about something that he's devoted more than 20 years to and claims to love, then it makes you wonder what his commitment level really is. He wouldn't stop texting me, even after I stopped engaging with him. Two weeks after we broke things off, I received yet another message from him calling me a moron, so I had to block his number and warn him not to contact me again. And, of course, he sent all of those messages despite the fact that I told him he could keep my money. I just wanted to be done with him. So for those of you who still want to hire him, good luck to you.
