If there was a 10-star option, I'd select it! Pat not only is a masterful dog trainer, he trains the family, so that they can implement the lessons. My Boston Terrier did a 4-week board and train. He and his family are in it together. Whenever I have to board him for a night or two I miss my dog, but I know that he is not only in safe hands, but in a loving, caring environment. BTW: my Godot fell in love with Pat's daughter, Bella, a gorgeous toddler.

Pat has been absolutely amazing with my pup. From training to boarding he’s made dog ownership so much better. I have a happy, well trained dog because of him!

We’ve boarded our pup Cleo with Pat 3 times now - the last time for 10 days. Pats is the best of both worlds - we like leaving Cleo in a home/family environment where she can also socialize with other dogs and have structured play time and walks.

We’ve boarded our pup Cleo with Pat 3 times now - the last time for 10 days. Pats is the best of both worlds - we like leaving Cleo in a home/family environment where she can also socialize with other dogs and have structured play time and walks. Pat’s extremely responsive and sends us updates, videos, and photos of Cleo while we’re away. I can tell Cleo enjoys her time there and we have peace of mind leaving her.

Pat was recommended to us by a friend and we are so glad we sent our dog to get trained by Pat! Before her training, she had reactivity towards other dogs which made it stressful to take her on walks or even leave our apartment. Pat spent an hour on the phone with us to answer questions not just about his training program but about our dogs behavior, his calm demeanor and willingness to share his knowledge made us feel comfortable sending her to him. Through her training Pat shared photos and updates of our dog and always took the time to answer our questions. The best part is that he spent a lot of time with us during two follow up sessions where we could ask questions and practice our leadership skills that Pat taught us. On one of the training sessions, Pat allowed us to bring my mother in laws dog so that our dog could learn to interact with it! Pat was patient with our questions and gave us the confidence to introduce our dog to other dogs on our own! Yesterday, we were able to have another dog visit in our backyard and the dogs actually played and cuddled! The difference is night and day!! Our dog is more confident, we are more confident, and our dog is even happier! I couldn’t be happier with the outcome!! We are extremely appreciative of Pat and recommend him to anyone (some of our friends from LA have already reached out after seeing how well behaved our dog is now)! Thank you Pat!!!

I can’t say enough great things about our experience with Pat’s Pack Dog Training. From the very first session, it was clear that he’s not only extremely knowledgeable about dog training, but also genuinely passionate about helping both dogs and their humans succeed. What really stood out was how personable and approachable he was. He made us feel completely comfortable, no judgment—just support and expert guidance. He took the time to educate us on dog psychology and behavior, helping us understand why our dog acted the way they did. But more importantly, he emphasized the role we play as dog parents and how our behavior directly impacts our dog’s progress. Our dog has made incredible strides thanks to his training, and we feel more confident and connected as a result. If you’re looking for a highly skilled trainer who truly cares and knows his stuff, I would 100% recommend Pat. You and your dog will be in the best hands.
