Best Board and Train

First: Sage is so good with dogs! I have had the opportunity to talk with her extensively about her training philosophy, and have seen her in action when training dogs, both large and small. Second: she is trustworthy and a really good person - animals love her and her kindness and goodness just show from the first moment you meet her. When your dogs are immediately comfortable with someone, you just KNOW you've found a good partner in care. I have two lovely dogs who are somewhat high needs - they've always had a human around since they came to me in 2017 so they have some separation anxiety. When they board with Sage, she always works with them on their behavior, but beyond that, she provides them a safe and loving space to rest and relax. When they come back to me they are happy, heal

Sage is incredible! She helped me understand my two VERY different dogs and explained pack dynamics in a way that finally clicked. She’s patient, meets you where you are, and truly cares about helping you succeed. Highly, highly recommend.

Sage has been so amazing to work with! Our puppy learned so much during her board and train and was so comfortable with Sage. We are so thankful for the tools Sage taught our pup and us! She made a point of working on real life situations (walking with a stroller or sitting at a park) which has been a lifesaver with two kids! We have the best pup and her confidence and development have grown so much because of Sage’s training!

We are endlessly grateful to Sage at Best Board and Train. After adopting our 4 year old rescue Periwinkle (Peri for short) about 2 months ago, we were completely overwhelmed by his anxiety and reactivity and honestly felt stressed and heartbroken not knowing how to help him, but from our very first conversation, Sage gave us hope. After her three-week board and train program, Peri came home calmer, more confident, and finally able to relax, listen, and start enjoying walks without fear or reactivity. Having him come home felt scary (my wife and I were incredibly nervous about it), but Sage empowered us with the tools and reassurance we needed to succeed. Seeing Peri comfortable and happy in his own home is something we never thought possible, and it was all because of Sage. We just got hi

Sage, the owner and trainer of Best Board and Train, is truly amazing! I would highly recommend her if you interested in getting help with your dog's behaviors. She has years of experience working with all breeds, sizes, and age of dogs. She will board & train dogs in her own home and return them listening, well behaved, and under control. She will also come to your home to do training sessions or meet you in the park. Sage uses lots of tools and techniques to help get your dog to respond to the training, such as crate training, clicker training, prong and e-collars. She not only works with your dog, but also with you, as the owner, to teach you the proper methods to help the training stick for your dog since consistency and practice are necessary.
