    During the consultation Daidre was very thorough when discussing what to expect, what is acceptable, and where the dog was coming from. I have looked for a dog trainer willing to come to my house to address the territorial aggression and that is just what we found. I am looking forward to working with Dog Training Elite.

    We have two dogs—one 6 years old and one 2—and before training, neither of them had any structure. Unfortunately, they picked up each other’s bad habits to the point where walks were stressful and nearly impossible. We couldn’t control them, they barked constantly when outside, and they wouldn’t listen to commands once there were any distractions. That’s completely changed now. With simple, consistent commands, they actually listen. Walks have become enjoyable instead of overwhelming, and we can confidently have them outside without nonstop barking. They’re calmer, more responsive, and overall much happier—and so are we. The time and money we invested were absolutely worth it, and we’re committed to continuing the work to reinforce these great habits. We truly cannot thank Ramiro and Dog Training Elite enough. Having the training done in our home, in their natural environment, made all the difference. It was a game-changer for our dogs and for us.

    We’ve had a wonderful experience working with Dog Training Elite! We have two large, energetic dogs with very little formal training experience, but just a few sessions with Carrie has brought huge positive change to my dogs. The private at-home sessions have been amazing for each of my pups to get the care and attention they need, and I’m continuously surprised at how well my dogs respond to this training method. They are already living a calmer, more structured lifestyle thanks to Dog Training Elite, and I’m confident that they will only continue to thrive! Could not recommend more!

    As a local business owner, having a reliable 'office dog' is a game-changer for our daily operations, and we owe that entirely to Cheyenne and Chelsea at Dog Training Elite Orlando. ​We originally brought Okey to them as a 6-month-old with the goal of service dog certification, and the process was so seamless and professional that he is now the perfect addition to our workspace—calm, focused, and impeccably behaved around clients. We were so impressed by the 'elite' standard they maintain that we’ve already entrusted them with our two newest puppies. If you’re looking to elevate your dog’s behavior to a professional level, I cannot recommend this team enough. They are truly the best in the industry!

    Cheyenne and Chelsea at Dog Training Elite Orlando have earned our trust completely. After seeing the incredible transformation of our 6-month-old service dog, Okey, we knew we couldn’t go anywhere else. We now have two more puppies in their care, and the results are already showing. They make the training process fun for both the dogs and the owners. Do yourself a favor and send your dogs to the best in town!

    Training a dog can feel like a daunting task, but Cheyenne and Chelsea made it feel effortless. The progress our pup made was nothing short of amazing. The entire experience was so positive and well-organized that we didn't think twice about enrolling our two new puppies. If you want an easy, enjoyable, and effective training journey, Dog Training Elite Orlando is the only place to go.

    Absolutely stellar experience! Cheyenne and Chelsea are miracle workers. They took our 6-month-old dog, and helped us turn him into a service dog with such ease. We loved the process so much that we brought two more puppies to them for training! This is hands-down the best place in Orlando for your furry family members. Five stars isn't enough!

    If you are looking for top-tier obedience or service dog training, Cheyenne and Chelsea at Dog Training Elite Orlando are the best in the business. They helped us transform our 6-month-old dog, Okey, into a fully capable service dog through a process that was seamless and stress-free. The quality of their work is so consistent that we now have our two newest puppies training with them as well. It is an absolute joy to work with this team—don’t hesitate to trust them with your dogs.

    I cannot say enough good things about Dog Training Elite Orlando. We started our journey with Okey, our 6-month-old pup, who we hoped could become a service dog. Thanks to Cheyenne and Chelsea’s expertise, the process was incredibly smooth and rewarding. They didn’t just train Okey; they gave us the tools to succeed as a team. We were so impressed with the results and the enjoyable experience that we’ve already enrolled our two newest puppies in their program. If you want trainers who truly care and deliver elite results, look no further!

    We brought our anxious 4-month-old Rough Collie puppy to Cheyenne and Chelsea for obedience and service dog training. They are truly incredible trainers who transformed our unruly nervous puppy into a emboldened model service dog. In fact, we were so impressed that we were bold enough to get two more pups (at the same time!) who we’ve already enrolled into their programs! If you want your dogs to be well-behaved members of your family, who can accompany you anywhere—from public outings to stress-free vet visits—this is the team to call. As a pilot and surfer, having "adventure dogs" who can keep up with my lifestyle is essential. My oldest has accompanied me surfing, kayaking, flying, to theme parks, shopping, everywhere. The impact on our home’s stress level has been worth every penny. I cannot recommend them enough.

    Absolutely amazing. I went from one sweet eager to please dog to a polished pup. Even more impressive was his sister who was almost unmanageable and slightly unsafe at 125 lbs. She is now enjoying walks, which were impossible before, and is far more tolerant of people and other dogs. Sunnee is the absolute best and has a magic way with dogs.

    5/5 stars - each star for patience, kindness, experience, trustworthiness, professionalism. The trainer was incredibly patient and kind, clearly experienced, and very trustworthy. Their professionalism stood out, always showing up on time and keeping the sessions focused. I cannot stress enough how much I recommend this company. My dog Whiskey is a brand new pup because of her training here. It is night and day to see her in the house out on the grass or in public now verse how rowdy she used to be. And now Whiskey is helping train our new pup Rhino. Mr. Brad is reliable patient full of knowledge and just an all-around awesome guy.
