We previously worked with Kristin for her training services when we first got our new dog, Reeses, from a shelter and thank her for helping us all learn how to get comfortable with each other through training and become a happy family. We have been hoping to find someone we trust to watch Reeses for those times like holidays when it isn't convenient for family to watch her. When we found out Kristin was opening Angelic Paws Boarding, we were absolutely ecstatic because we knew Reeses loved the nice treat lady and that Kristin already was aware of some of her behavioral issues and how to handle her. It was such a huge peace of mind for us to leave her with a professional and trust worthy Boarding service with the added benefit of knowing she would have individual attention and enrichment activities and treats to help reduce her fear of being away from home. Kristin provided several updates and pictures to help us feel better that Reeses was doing well and was happy while we were gone. We highly recommend working with Angelic Paws Boarding and will be repeat customers for sure! Thanks Kristin!

Kristin is such an amazing trainer! She is so knowledgeable and does such an excellent job of breaking skills down and problem solving anything you might be struggling with. Most importantly she teaches you how to build a loving, positive relationship with your dog and how to help them be confident and happy out in the world and at home. She gives you all of the tools to be successful and offers support between lessons. I feel so lucky to have worked with Kristin and she made those weeks after getting a new puppy so much easier. I can’t recommend her enough!
Kristin was so great to work with! We felt confident that her advice and techniques were rooted in research and focus on positive experiences and interactions for both owner and pup. It was such a comfort knowing we had a reliable resource as we brought our puppy home and her techniques WORK! Highly recommend her!

We tried both the private lessons and boarding options for our 4 month old Cane Corso pup. She has come a long way since she first started. Not only did our puppy benefit greatly from the obedience training, we fur parents picked up a few new tricks as well during each session. What we liked best about how Kristin worked with us was the fact that each lesson stuck with us and were not too difficult to follow; Kristin did an excellent job socializing and training our puppy as well during her 2 week boarding. She kept us posted on how our girl was doing with boarding, giving us lots of detail on the day to day basis and sending us pictures every now and again. We highly recommended Angelic Paws to those who would like to see a positive difference in obedience and socialization with their pup, as well as the owners themselves gaining a knowledgeable experience shared with their dog. Thank you for everything, Kristin!!!
