Kayla did an incredible job instructing and teaching us on how to properly train our new puppy, as we had never owned a dog before. She demonstrated generosity in freely offering her time and exhibited utmost professionalism. After working with our puppy, we witnessed a remarkable improvement. We highly endorse her services.

My whole encounter with Kayla was nothing short of outstanding. In just under two weeks, she managed to crate train my canine impeccably. Kayla kept me posted daily about my pet's milestones, and I'm ecstatic that my dog can now relieve himself outside. Upon returning my pet, Kayla provided us with thorough guidelines and even followed up later. I strongly endorse her services; my dog was content and well cared for under her watch, and Kayla's expertise is worth its weight in gold!

I received a prompt response, but it appears that you tend to hurry the training process without even having the dog trained yet. You expect immediate results from CrackerJack, but it's unfair to judge without giving enough time for the training to take place. One cannot form a quick opinion without experiencing the service first-hand.

Kayla is truly exceptional. Despite my unruly and sometimes aggressive one-year-old dog Wallaby, she was able to transform his behavior. On her first visit, Wallaby even bit Kayla. But unlike any normal trainer who would understandably quit, Kayla didn't back away. This app only allows users to choose three out of five options when reviewing a trainer. However, even if there were 10 options, Kayla would still receive a perfect rating from me. Kayla's one-on-one training is so unique because it limits her clientele. But think about the selfless mindset behind it. A child who receives one-on-one tutoring always benefits more than a teacher teaching 10+ students. I highly recommend Kayla and give her an A+ rating. In the photo, Wallaby is shown giving Kayla his undivided attention in a crowded Carytown. What child under 12 years old can do that?

Without a doubt, Kayla is exceptional in her field. Upon adopting a pitbull mix, I was enthusiastic about commencing his training. After perusing various options, I requested quotes from a few sources. Promptly, Kayla responded and arranged a consultation call with me for the next day to discuss my training preferences. After speaking with Kayla on the phone, I had no hesitation in selecting her services. We had four in-home sessions, and during this period, Kayla demonstrated her affable personality, professionalism, reasonable fees, adept teaching skills, practical recommendations, and, most importantly, her respect for our autonomy regarding how we wanted to train our dog. Her broad knowledge base and experience enabled me to feel more assured about the process, especially because I was apprehensive due to my limited understanding of the pitbull breed. In just four sessions, we were able to address numerous skills and commands, such as sit, leave it, touch, down, spin, leash training, fostering positive interactions between our two dogs, and more. Beyond that, Kayla provided insightful pointers on useful topics such as car rides, feeding, potty training, and establishing a deep bond with our canine companion. I cannot express enough gratitude to Kayla for generously imparting crucial skills and knowledge to us to enable Nero to succeed, and I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking dog training solutions. Thank you, Kayla!
