Animal House PNW

Our dog Milo absolutely loves going to Kelly’s house when we go on vacation or out of town when Milo can’t come. He doesn’t even say goodbye when we drop him off at her house. He has friends there and freaks out when we get close. It’s like he’s going to summer camp and when he comes home, he sleeps. She even sends you pictures daily when you’re gone. I can’t imagine it any other way. My wife and I are very fortunate to have Kelly in our lives for Milo 😁.

We were recommended Animal House PNW last year by a friend. We could not be happier! Kelly has helped us so much with training our two rescue pups. Both dogs are highly reactive and needed proper leash training and socialization. Kelly has been there every step of the way—assisting not just them, but us as well. We’ve also utilized the weekly playgroups which have been a godsend. Our pups come home happy and oh-so worn out. Based on our experiences, we would highly recommend Animal House PNW to anyone looking for a dog trainer, boarder, or dog-parent coach. We consider Kelly part of our family now and trust her implicitly with our four-legged kids.

We have been using Animal House PNW with our puppy Jolene for a few months now. Jolene loves the playgroups and Kelly! She has also boarded with Kelly and Kia, and was very comfortable in their home, and picked up some good training while she was there. I'm very happy with Animal House, I trust them with my fur-baby, you can see how much they love her and Kelly has a strong background to keep Fiona trained and safe. I look forward to a long time relationship for pup and Animal House.

I became Flynn’s mommy a little over a year ago and since the day we met he’s been a total Mama’s boy. He was kind of a terror for my wife but he was such a good boy for me that I didn’t encourage and participate in training as much as I should have; I didn’t understand at the time why it was necessary. Then several months ago Flynn and my two sons came for a walk with me. We got attacked by an off-leash pitbull. None of us knew what to do. A random stranger stopped and saved us and we escaped fairly unscathed physically. However, the attack completely demolished the trust between myself and Flynn. My own fear kept me from taking him out on walks. His fear caused him to be aggressive. Day by day we were able to spend less and less time together until he was so anxious I couldn’t even pet h

From start to finish our pets were in excellent hands! We needed someone to watch our 2 cats and our dog while we were away for 10 days. She visited our cats twice a day, and took Shadow our pup to her house to board. I think Shadow wishes he was still away at doggy sleep away camp. Kelly sent daily pictures of all the fun he had and the outings and adventures she took him on. From the first time of meeting Kelly, one could tell she knew what she was doing, understood and loved animals and my dog listened to her better than he had ever listened to me. So we took the opportunity to hire her to work on some specific things. Not only did she do an excellent job with Shadow, she came to our house for a follow up and gave us an easy to reference cheat sheet of cues to use. We would reco
