Hear From Our Dog Families

Abbie Brown

I would highly recommend Kaleidoscope and Julie’s services — she is extremely patient and knowledgeable when it comes to training your doggo. My Sourdough was only 5 months old when we started training, and her temperament and manageability has improved vastly. She is so much easier to walk, takes commands and way less reactive than she was before we started. I also love that Julie takes the time to work with you one-on-one so every lesson is catered to your and your dog’s needs — 10/10 go with Kaleidoscope!

Pilar Brya

Julie has been amazing in training us with our reactive dog. She trained us all on techniques that would work with reactive dogs. We learned things that would help reduce our dog’s reactions and reduce our stress. Our walks are now enjoyable for all. I highly recommend Kaleidoscope Dog Services! We could not have achieved this level of success without her!

Melissa Ray

I highly recommend Julie and doing puppy classes with your new pet. It was overwhelming for me to get a puppy. Our puppy training was with positive reinforcement and how to effectively address a lot of the common puppy behaviors. With the help of our puppy classes I really was able to gain confidence through the structured training classes. My puppy loved going to class and was able to learn so much.

Shea Boyle

Julie has been so helpful for my dog Miso! He was an overly anxious little guy but he has gained so much confidence and control under Julie's guidance. She has been so kind and patient with him and my dogs LOVE her! I'd highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trainer for their pup.

Alyssa Martorano

Julie was absolutely amazing to work with! I started working with her after my dog had a negative board & train experience elsewhere that caused aggression, extreme reactiveness and obedience issues. Julie took the time to address these concerns all with positive reinforcement. You can tell she cares about your dog and their progression. She even provides recap emails after each training session and a summary report upon completion of the training which I found extremely beneficial. I now have tools that will help me continue to improve my dog’s behavior at every stage in life. I highly recommend Kaleidoscope Dog Services!

Elise H Baumgartner

I can’t recommend Julie enough! Their training is effective, personalized, and made a noticeable difference in my dog’s behavior. Julie is patient, knowledgeable, and truly cares about both dogs and guardians. Highly recommend!

Andrew Howard

We just completed private puppy training classes with our golden retriever and couldn’t be more happy with the results! Julie is so knowledgeable and gives you the tools you need to help create the best behaving pup. He was always so exited to see her each week and learn new things. We can’t wait to start him in group classes soon!

Martha Burrer

Julie was invaluable to us after adopting a rescue pitbull! She helped us navigate some of the difficult behaviors we weren’t prepared for. Without her expertise, we would have felt discouraged and incapable. Julie helped us nurture such a positive relationship with Copper, and we are so grateful!

Ryan Marquez

Julie is my trainer and friend. Being a part of Soilders best friend has been such a gift and having Julie helping me and Rowan through this year has been everything. Julie is informative friendly and understanding. I couldn’t recommend her more to anyone in my own life.

Genaro Garcia

Julie was great to work with! I started working with Julie before I even had a dog. She was able to walk me through which dog breeds would best suit my needs and lifestyle. After deciding on a breed she was super helpful in recommending quality breeders in the area and around the country. As someone who was new to dog ownership I wanted to make sure I had a good fit with my dog breed and get my puppy started on the right foot with a quality trainer. Julie checked all of the boxes for me and I would highly recommend her to anyone.
