We absolutely love Pawsitive Vibes K9 for boarding and training! Brooke is patient, reliable, and truly cares about every dog she works with. We’ve been with Pawsitive Vibes K9 for a little over 3 years and our dogs have grown so much in confidence and obedience. We always feel at ease leaving them with Brooke because we know they’re safe, loved, and in the best hands.
Hands-down the BEST. Best trainer, daycare, boarding, the whole package - Brooke is more knowledgeable on everything canine than anyone I know, no exaggeration.
Within a week after getting my three month old rescue pup, I started with Pawsitive Vibes. They have taught her as well as me over the past eight months and I couldn’t be more grateful. I have also counted on them for daycare, pack walks and boarding.
One of the best measures is how excited and happy my dog Heifer is whenever the white van pulls up or a trainer arrives for a one on one session.
Prices are very reasonable and they’re willing always to go the extra mile.
Brooke and Sarah are incredible! My husband and I have a young rescue pit who can be nervous around new people and places. When we had to board him over the holidays we searched high and low to find a place for our pup to feel comfortable. And thank goodness we found Pawsitive Vibes k9! Brooke and Sarah are the kind of leaders and trainers that will make sure our Griffey is fulfilled when he stays with them. He is always excited to see them, which puts all my own nerves at ease. I really appreciate that Brooke and Sarah take their time to focus on building a relationship and trust with our dog, making sure he is able to build his own self confidence along the way. I can’t recommend Brooke and Sarah enough, and I’m so grateful to them for taking incredible care of our boy.
Brooke and Sarah go above and beyond. We have 3 frenchies and a Shepard mix who all have different and specific needs. We never need to worry about them while spending the day in their care. Which as any frenchie owner will tell you, is a real stress. They have learned recall and calm down techniques. The dogs are socialized with all other breeds, great on leash now and come home tired out and happy. We get adorable photo and video updates daily. I strongly recommend them for training and boarding!
I had such an amazing experience with Brooke & Sara. I hired them to work with one of my dogs, but during our in-home visit they also worked with my other dog. I boarded my dog with them for two weeks and his behavior was much improved. The most important part was that they taught me how to continue with the training. I highly recommend them.
I can’t say enough good things about the Pawsitive Vibes team. They helped ensure the right behaviors from my dog from the early puppy stages, and also set me up for success by teaching me how to be a good owner and the importance of relationship building with my dog. Even after training, they are still always willing to help answer questions etc.
thanks for loving my pup so much!
We've worked with both Sarah and Brooke, and can't say enough good things about them. They're awesome to work with, and great with our furry family member. We have a hyper frenchie (surprise surprise) who just loves to great people at the door and jumps with excitement!! The Pawsitive Vibes team helped us to work with our dog to control his excitement, and in just one training session we're already seeing amazing results. We're looking forward to working with them again.
I can't say enough good things about Brooke and Sarah. They have known Cade, my Dutchie x Malinois since he was a puppy and he adores them. They have been so incredible, just a wealth of support, knowledge, and assistance throughout his puppyhood and into his teenage years. Sarah helped me with his impulse control (of which he has barely any around her because he loves her so much 🤣) and helped teach me how to play tug. Their packwalks are a godsend to help build his confidence and impulse control through fun activities and structure.
I had the pleasure of meeting Sarah about 3 years ago when I "foster failed" my sweet cattle dog Blu, who was highly reactive to all strangers and dogs. Through the school that she was working for at the time, I attended her group classes and found her to be fantastic! She has a wealth of knowledge that she's always been very happy to share. Her love of dogs is more than evident and her willingness to want to help dog owners is sincere. Even though Sarah has moved to the U.S. we have remained in touch, and I am so grateful that she continues to not only ask how Blu is doing, but continues to support and encourage me through the videos she sees of us on social media. When I've asked Sarah for advice, even though I'm no longer "a client", she has still gone out of her way to send me information, and demo videos on how I can improve my training with Blu. Not many would do that! I've so appreciative of her. I would highly recommend Sarah / Pawsitive Vibes for all of your dog training, etc. needs as she has the expertise, the experience and a great love for dogs to want to make their life happier, and healthier.
We are incredibly grateful for Sarah's exceptional dog training skills and the positive impact she had on Wyona's behaviour. Sarah's expertise in training, structured sessions, confidence building, and pack socialization truly transformed our walks.
Wyona, who craved social interaction, flourished under Sarah's guidance. Sarah's strong leadership and deep understanding of dog behaviour provided the perfect blend of structure and discipline. Wyona's state of mind significantly improved, allowing us to confidently walk on busy sidewalks right outside our building—a feat we couldn't have imagined before.
Sarah's compassion and support were as evident as her leadership skills. The training sessions with other well-balanced dogs created a positive environment for Wyona's development. We miss the wonderful community Sarah built, but we're grateful for the lasting impact on Wyona.
Thank you, Sarah, for your dedication, expertise, and the positive changes you brought to Wyona's life. Wishing you continued success in your endeavours!
First time meeting Sarah she was easy to talk to and was able to provide helpful tips on how to engage with my dog especially through play. I would say my first interaction with Sarah was a positive one and would highly recommend her.
She was able to quickly identify what was wrong and provided me guidance to achieve the desired behavior.
Within 15min of her guidance my dog was a superstar!
Thank you so much Sarah!
After recently boarding my dog here for the first time not knowing what to expect I was extremely satisfied with the service provided. I picked up my dog and was happy to have learned she got along with other dogs she was able to go on pack walks for the three days she was there. I have signed up for obedience course with them and can’t wait to see what they can do!
Brooke and Sarah helped my two pups Nacho and Bentley with walking together on leash. Before training they would pull me and zig zag through my legs, now they walk next to me and don’t pull. I’ve also used them for boarding and felt very confident my pups were safe and taken care of, they even sent photos every day. Every time they see Brooke and Sarah they are so excited which shows the care Brooke and Sarah have for my pups. I would highly recommend for any boarding and training needs. Thanks Brooke and Sarah!!
We have a 3 year old intact American Bulldog. Brooke is absolutely the best trainer, dog walker and boarder!!! She is very experienced, patient and dedicated. We always feel so confident, happy and satisfied every time we leave our dog with her. She is amazing and we highly recommend her!!!
I foster failed a dog reactive bully breed in a busy city in Ontario, Canada. Rizzo was an angel in my home but this strong girl was on high alert outdoors - anxious, scanning, dog reactive. With dogs appearing around every corner and coming from every direction – both on and off leash - walks in our neighbourhood were stressful and exhausting. I was told by trainers that she didn’t need dog friends… but my heart told me she IS dog social and craved that interaction. We made a lot of progress through training, structure, confidence building and pack socialization with an amazing dog behaviorist…but I was still driving her to remote, quiet areas for every walk. Once Brooke started taking Rizzo on pack walks, Rizzo’s state of mind improved and my confidence grew. Now we walk right out the front door of our building onto the busy sidewalk daily AND we enjoy our walks! Brooke’s strong leadership and understanding of dog behavior provided the structure and discipline required while her huge heart showed us such compassion and support at the same time. Her amazing pack of wonderfully well-balanced creatures helped Rizzo with her state of mind. We miss them all dearly but wish them all the best in Cali!
Highly recommend! They are knowledgeable, professional, and most importantly caring. I have two golden retrievers named Lucy and Lily who love Brooke! During board and train I know they are in good hands and most importantly they are looked after and well taken care of. Lucy and Lily always come back happy after their stay. I initially reached out when I needed help walking both dogs together without being dragged to the floor. Within a few private 1-1 sessions the dogs where learning but so was I. I was able to implement everything Brooke thought me and kept up with the homework she would assign me weekly. I’m proud to say I can now walk both of them side by side with no problem. Next, I wanted them to work on off leash obedience since my dogs love the beach and hiking. Brooke recommended e collar training and it has changed their lives. Now they can enjoy all the activities they love without a worry. I highly recommend them to anyone! They look after our fur babies like they do theirs!
