I would like to start off by saying that I wish there was a zero star rating. I came here for an assessment and Alice’s first impressions to me was super unacceptable. She is a super judgemental and stuck up woman who thinks she has the right to speak to people rudely. Right off the bat she was judging me on how little commands I taught my dog which is ironic because I am getting them assessed for TRAINING. She will constantly tell you what NOT TO DO instead of what TO DO. Her attitude towards other people is completely unacceptable. What is the point of taking your dogs to training if you are going to be criticized the whole time. She even YELLED at us when we did something wrong for the first time and told us to never do it again in front of her as if she was the boss. Even at the end of our assessment she commands you to force your dog to pee at her tree even if your dog had just peed before the assessment. Alice is really not fit for the job as I am not the only one who experienced this. Alice, herself needs training for her own attitude. I should have read the other reviews before booking, that would’ve saved so much of my time from being harassed. I 100% do not recommend coming to DOGSmart (unless you enjoy being yelled at).

We have been taking our Shy & Fearful dog, Ollie, to dogsmart now for over a year! We started with daycare to help him socialize better, and luckily they had a small dog day where Ollie could comfortably build up his confidence. We also did the shy and fearful class and were happy to learn a couple new things to help us manage his reactivity. It’s a learning process having a dog like this, but they have certainly helped us manage!

DogSmart is a great place for people and pets to learn how to communicate and have better behaviours all around. Alice (the owner) is knowledgeable and professionally certified. After making an appointment, Alice took the time to get to know us, and thoroughly assess my dog. She then made great recommendations for classes and training that would fit with my family and budget. Lots of options for new puppy class, shy dog, 'come when called' and barking management have been helpful to my family. The staff in the doggie daycare ware patient and fun. I appreciate that they are open early and later so that I can still get everyone to work and school on time. Agility lessons are super fun with Mary. My dog and son love the bonding opportunity and the extra exercise is welcome. They have an annual fun match to show off new skills. Overall, DogSmart is a great facility. The place is spotless, with lots of space for fetch games and rest times. Terrific staff and other happy, friendly dogs for my pooch to hang out with. Highly recommend!
