Kellie and Jason are an amazing team. When I inquired about System of a Dog, Kellie spent over 40 minutes on the phone with me listening to our situation (trying to get 2 headstrong female herding dogs acclimated), answering questions and explaining the different services they offered. Next the first home visit was scheduled with Jason. He listened, observed and instructed in an extremely calm, professional and courteous manner. Next, I went to the free group class they offered. Kellie and Jason had their dogs and dogs they were training on site they were working with. Once the class started they explained how they would interact with each client and their dog. It was amazing to see them work with a client for 5 to 10 minutes, then move to the next, then circle back to help you again or give praise for a job well done. It is obvious they love animals and they are exceptional at their profession.

Jason basically saved my sanity! Our German Shepard was very reactive, lunging and chasing cars and barking loudly nonstop at ever car that drove past our house. I was scared to take him for walks or outside our house in general because he could be so unpredictable. From the very first lesson, Jason helped me see what I needed to do to help my dog listen and be safe. Each time we met I learned more and my confidence grew. We just took our dog on a weekend trip to the beach and it was a huge success. I can’t recommend Jason and system of a dog more! It’s 100% worth it!

Jason and Kelly are exceptional dog trainers. They have expertise, patience, and a meticulous approach to ensuring you and your dog get the most out of the training. I would recommend them without hesitation!

We showed up ready to spend $ to get our VERY stubborn Frenchie that would not potty train at all ( our 2 yr.old frenchie ) We were so frustrated 😑 We showed up and the trainer took his time out of his day to educate us on how to do what we thought we needed his help with he explained it in very simple terms . We spoke with him in his driveway for about 40 min. We ended up taking our frenchie home and training him on our own ..... I was totally impressed by the way he was like try and do this if it does not work bring him back and I will train him ! I and my husband are both disabled so we are on a tight budget. This man told us what we needed to know to get where he would be trained ... He saved us alot of money . These people are a rare find these day . AGAIN THANK YOU FOR THE INFO. OUR HOUSE IS HAPPY AND STINK FREE TODAY 😂💯 Thank you System of a dog 🐕 🙏

Today was our first full day with using the resources and guidance provided for our puppy. System of a Dog is a GAME CHANGER! We already notice a difference in our puppies behavior towards us and we couldn’t be more thankful! Best investment to get our puppy off to the right start!

I am a first time owner of a large breed male dog. When he came into our lives as a puppy life turned on us overnight. I truly did not know how to raise him up the way he needed. My small breed dog was no where near the amount of energy or work he was. We found Jason and Kellie through a coworker who raved about them. From day one they changed our lives, as someone who did not know anything about properly training a dog the guidance and tools they have given us is invaluable. I've had plenty of melt down moments and not knowing what to do I would reach out and always get a fast response with TONS of information. They truly love their work and love dogs and you can't help but feel it radiate from them. I would recommend them to any and everyone, especially if you are struggling with a certain behavior. You owe it to yourself and your dog to build a solid foundation of skills and behaviors that you feel proud of. My relationship with my dog has changed because of the training they have taught us to enstill in him. Forever grateful for them!
