Meraki Dog Company

INCREDIBLE experience! If we could give more stars we would. We tried our absolute best to train our dog and always thought we should/could just train her ourselves, but we wanted to grow our family and ended up having twins (who take up most of our time and energy now)! It felt like an investment opting for dog training but I promise, it was 100% worth it. We have a 65lb husky/shepherd mix, who has the best intentions but has lots of energy and she was a little out of control. I used to dread taking her for walks because she would pull me down the street/yank after every squirrel/do a backflip when she saw another dog. During pregnancy and thereafter walking with a stroller I no longer felt comfortable walking her when I couldn’t manage her outbursts! After a week of training with Chelsea and Mikayla, the difference was night and day! They sent us training videos throughout the week, outlining how they were training her and showing off her new skills. She heels and actually doesn’t pull, will hold a “sit/stay” until released, stops on command, and will sit in a “place” until released, and has learned to control herself around squirrels and bunnies which we thought would be near impossible. After the week they had us over for a training session so that we could learn how to use the new commands, then followed up with us after one week to see how things were going. Our dog was obviously very comfortable with both trainers and looked like she felt at home when we picked her up!

We hired Meraki dog company for 2 different puppies and Chelsey was amazing each time! We love her approach of getting to know the dog and its personality and applying necessary tools the dog needs to succeed. She was always on time and communicates well...She has a lot of experience and knowledge and did wonders with our puppies! We had our 2nd puppy stay a couple times for boarding as well and he had am amazing time and came back happy! We cannot recommend her enough!

Chelsey and Meraki Dog Company are fantastic! I started off with a basic obedience class and couldn't stop coming back! Chelsey was able to quickly and knowledgably teach me (and my dog) the basics which we kept building upon to where she is now. Now, thanks to Chelsey, my dog has stopped jumping, can follow all basic obedience commands, heel, and is completely off leash trained. Would recommend for any training as well as boarding. My dog and I absolutely love going to see Chelsey and the rest of Meraki!
