Dependable Companions Dog Training, East Liberty OH

Our pack of 5 had a great time! Nikki and her team treat them like their own. Our pups get so excited the moment I turn on the road to drop them off at dependable companions.

Nikki and her staff are fabulous! Jack, our dog, has made a complete 180! He is calmer, obeys when we do what Nikki trained us to do, lol.and he is always excited to go visit. Great care from great people. Thank you Nikki, you are the best!

I tell things how what I see and feel and how I was treated. Went to open house lady said die dye shirts not ready told me go and look at the building did a walk through nice facility and colorful. No one greeted me except asked about my dog. (was wanting her to get some training due to a bad knee I have so I can handler better. But no one was advertising or trying to get new clients and no one would talk to me. When I got ready to leave there was black poodle to the side and my dog sniffed it’s nose and the owner or helper yelled at me to get that dog away from the other dog but yet they advertise play date and interacting with other dogs so I am looking for another place for training. It seems they was more focused on there clients than wanting new.

Our rescue dog has separation anxiety issues, so it was important to find a place where he would receive extra attention and monitored activities when away from home. We receive pictures every few days showing interactions with other dogs. Nikki has called when the situation warrants and keeps us abreast of his status. He is happy when we pick him up and with her attention to detail, Jake seems to be less stressed and not as anxious about being apart as he was previously.

We LOVE dependable Companions! From boarding to training-we will never go anywhere else! They really individualize a plan for your pup while training-with lasting results! When boarding, prices are comparable to anwhere else, but they are SURE your pup gets play time, outside time, socialization and even special things your dog likes (frisbee is the BEST according to our pooch, Arthur!) We have tried other places in the past for boarding, but NOTHING compares to Dependable Dogs-we have a much happier pup-we can tell he loves the staff there! We also love the updates while he is there-the staff is just awesome!

Simply put Nikki is amazing and you will not regret her assistance with your dog. Nikki for sure knows her stuff and your dog would be in such good hands.

For starters Nikki was the only one out of a few places I checked out that would have a lengthy conversation about our dog and his behaviors to see what we could do. My husband and I were over our heads with how to approach some bad behaviors and general training so we needed a complete overhaul. Truly wish we could have done this sooner. We went with the lifetime program. Sure it is a lot of money but when you break it down with what you receive, the results of your dog having a better life, and you being able to live as you should without dancing around triggers then it is so worth it. On the flip side you could be spending all this money going somewhere else and they may not put in as much effort or care so definitely check in with Nikki.

Don't get me wrong, this isn't a magical fix and requires continuous work on your part. It's good that there is in home training with the program we chose as we needed to know how to move forward to handle him correctly. Our dog isn't perfect but has made serious improvements with Nikki's help. Our expectations were exceeded and we are so thankful that our dog is safer now. What I mean is that he doesn't try to run out the door now, walks next to us without trying to buck his collar off, etc. What was accomplished in 17 days to correct years of us not handling things correctly is amazing.

I didn't see a ton of reviews so I'll post this a few different spots.

She is just flat as phenomenal. I am sure she speaks dog. More importantly whether puppy training from the start, or helping with a new rescue, she is sheer amazing to help conquer communication issues and help solve problems between humans and their fur babies. So grateful she is a part of our world.

Simply the very best in every way! Nikki is a professional at what she does, and dogs respond to her almost immediately! She is also very helpful after the training! Dog boarding is also available, reasonably priced, and Nikki makes sure the dogs are socialized and entertained.

We had our first visit and learned allot. So far our little Blue is catching on to his homework. Also he is extremely worn out

I have two rescue pitties that I sent for training and I can’t be more satisfied with the results. Both my dogs now have manners on the leash and can come to the ball field with us. I also have boarded both my dogs and have nothing but great things to say they both are excited to go back and see Nikki! Thank you Nikki for taking care of my fur babies when we are gone.
