Psychiatric Service Dog Training in Utah County, UT

Loved our first meeting with Deidre!

I always appreciate when people share the same enthusiasm for the things I love. From the moment I called to inquire I was met was so much excitement and care. When my trainer arrived she was also happy and excited to work with me and my pup. I felt like I was drowning in the first time puppy owner unknowns.. and you know the biting 😩. She kindly gave me some easy steps to follow. I feel empowered to train. Thank you Deidre, you saved me from future emotional meltdowns haha! I look forward to seeing my Nala girl progress ! ❤️

Deidre is an excellent trainer. Not only for my dog but very helpful in helping me become a better trainer for my dog.

We’ve had a fantastic experience training our dog. The office you call into is incredibly responsive and helpful. Both trainers (Deidre and Meagan) we’ve worked with are patient, knowledgeable and easy to understand. We’ve realized most of the training is US learning. What to expect and how to communicate it. Love having trainers come to our house and teach us in our space. Can’t say enough good things. Absolutely recommend.

After some setbacks in training this week (accidents) Diedre has given us tools and direction- such a great training session! 100% recommend!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Deidre. From the very first session, it was clear that she truly loves what she does — and more importantly, that she genuinely cares about every dog and owner she works with. Her patience, knowledge, and intuition with dogs is honestly unmatched. Deidre has a special gift for meeting both dogs and their humans exactly where they are. She takes the time to understand your dog's unique personality, quirks, and challenges, and then tailors her approach in a way that actually works. I've walked away from every session feeling more confident, more connected to my pup, and genuinely excited to keep practicing what we've learned. Beyond her skill as a trainer, Deidre is just an incredibly kind, encouraging, and uplifting person to be around. She celebrates the small wins, never makes you feel bad about the hard days, and always shows up with so much positivity and heart. If you're on the fence about working with her — don't be. Deidre is the real deal, and both you and your dog will be so much better for it. Thank you, Deidre, for everything you do.

I am very happy that my dog and I are learning so many great things from Dog Training Elite of Utah County! It is very exciting to see my 6 month old puppy learn so many new things! Our trainer today was Meagan and she is amazing! In a matter of minutes my puppy learned to “Place” And I also learned how to reinforce what she learned today. It’s a fun and rewarding experience to watch my puppy learn all these wonderful lessons! Thank you Meagan from Dog Training Elite! Shaun M

Deidre came out for the consultation and we can’t wait to get started! She did a great job explaining the process and answering our questions. Still a long way to go but we feel like we’ve made the right decision going with Dog Training Elite.

We had Deidre come out and I am so grateful we did. She was so knowledgeable in how to train our pup. I had been feeling so overwhelmed with training our 4 month old puppy and wondering if I would even be successful. Deidre had reassured me and gave me a plan to achieve all our training dreams. We cannot wait to get started and are confident any Dog Training Elite trainer will help us train and raise a the most respectful dog.

When I say this I mean it! Deidre has been amazing to work with! She genuinely cares. She lets our family work through things while also knowing exactly how and when to help! She is awesome with people, kids, and dogs! She helped us with our puppy and we had such a great experience we now are working with our 4 year old dog. She also has put in time to learn commands in ASL so we can train the puppy to be our daughter’s service dog which shows how much effort and care she puts in! It has been worth every single dollar we have spent and meant the world to our family! I can not say enough good things!

Good first experience. She was very helpful to understand what is needed to be done.

Truly if you want to learn how to work with your canine companion the best Deidre is who you’d want to work with. I have always wanted help and guidance on how to work with my dog better to achieve the best for the both of us. I really look forward to every opportunity that we get to learn from Deidre. There’s not enough kind things I could say for how thankful and excited I am to work with someone so talented kind and more than amazing.

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.

Always brings cute puppies through our car wash! love them!

Everyone was very knowledgeable and helpful. I started with puppy classes and I'm currently working on getting my dog certified to be a therapy animal. I couldn't have done it without Elite. They are always ready to answer any questions I have and show me how to correct and praise my dog. While the cost is high it is worth every penny to have a well behaved dog and trainers to reach out to if I run into any problems. 10/10 stars!

We had a great conversation. Very informative and straightforward. Thank you!

Very happy with this special session. Now I'll work on the things she showed me.

Megan is a very upbeat trainer and is excellent with my stubborn puppy. She explains everything and takes the time to answer questions. She is patient, kind and caring. She corrects you in a kind manner and explains and demonstrates what she is doing. I love the compassion that Megan shows when she works with Gus, she is very positive and upbeat.

It was scary for us to commit to spend so much money on training our dog. But after even the first session it felt so so worth it. Our doggy is better behaved and so much more fun to have around. Deidre clearly loooves what she does and always brings so much good information and energy. If you have an overreactive doodle like us you will only regret not doing it sooner!

We are new dog handlers and Dog Training Elite has been life savers. I love that there are so many different training environments we have had support with— our house, parks for group dog trainings, public places! We feel so much more confident with our pup!
