Ali Phillips

We brought our 2-year-old golden retriever to Aly for help with some training he lost during his “teen” phase and we were too busy to reinforce. In particular, we struggled with him being able to calmly greet people without jumping on top of them. From the beginning consultation, Aly was kind, answered all of my questions, and worked with us to determine the best path forward for our boy. We ended up doing a board and train program and couldn’t be happier. It’s clear he absolutely loves Aly and loved his time with her, and we are thrilled with the progress he made with her. I highly recommend Aly if you’re looking for a partner in training your dog in a positive, fear-free manner. - January 2026

My husband and I reached out to Ali to help with our dog that we rescued almost 2 years ago. She went above and beyond and exceeded our expectations. Ali takes the time to get to truly know your dog. She wants to know what their personality is like, home life, allergies to food, and environmental factors that could be effecting their behavior. We had multiple visits with Ali at our home. Every time Ali left, we had homework and training to do with our dog. After only 3 sessions and weeks of training in between we are so happy with the outcome at home and the progress that has been made. We couldn’t be happier with our experience! - December 2025

We had our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel do a 2 week board and train with Ali and saw an immediate and significant change in behaviors. Ali established a strong base with him that has allowed us to continue seeing positive behaviors. Furthermore, having Ali visit our home both before and after the board and train were very helpful in ensuring our pup and whole family was comfortable with her. Getting consistent updates on his wellbeing while he was away were vital as well giving us further peace of mind. All told, I would highly recommended Ali for anyone looking to start their puppy with a good solid base of commands that you can continue to foster within your home.
