"Kenzie is amazing! It’s like my Ozzie boy went to Club Med but came home completely disciplined!!! I was extremely anxious about leaving him for 6 weeks but Kenzie sent me regular updates and took him on sooo many fun adventures. She would send pictures and videos so I could see how he was doing. He got along so well with the other doggies there and I think that helped him feel more comfortable. She treated Ozzie like part of her family and loved him just like we do! I’m telling you she has a gift with animals. I would highly, highly recommend her training class. Ozzie is a changed dog and all his impulsive behaviors are gone!!!"

"Kenzie is stellar with our puppy Maggie! She will care for them as she would her own puppies which is excellent. Our Maggie would absolutely light up anytime she realized we were heading to Pets in Progress for “Kenzie Camp.” Good communication, reasonable pricing, and lots of pics when you are boarding so you aren’t worried ❤️"

"Our experience with Pets in Progress has been exceptional, thanks to the dedication and commitment Mackenzie shows every pup who comes through there. She has done wonders with our border collie, transforming her through her expert training and genuine care. When we get her back from boarding, she's not only exhausted from all the fun hikes and activities but also in an incredibly happy mood and can’t wait to go back each time.
Mackenzie’s dedication to continuing her training and providing her with unconditional love is evident in her joyful demeanor and excitement when she sees Mackenzie. It's clear she puts her heart and soul into every dog she boards, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend Pets in Progress for anyone seeking top-notch care and training for their furry friends!"

What can I say? I have the friendliest Goldendoodle named Charlie who is so full of energy, loves attention, but doesn’t realize just how large he is. He gets so excited to meet new furry friends and people that he can’t contain his excitement and our biggest challenge is jumping on people and some manners. We met Mackenzie in June 2024 and reassured me that Charlie has potential to get trained. Before boarding and training, he stayed with her for the weekend. I love that Mackenzie keeps in touched with me every single day and sends me pictures and videos. She is so compassionate and has so much love for all animals and has so much knowledge and skills to help us pet parents that I knew she’s our person for training and for boarding. Charlie has so much fun with her pups and the new furry friends he gets to meet there.
Mackenzie not only taught him different commands, off leash training, but she cured Charlie’s car sickness during boarding and training. My handsome boy can finally ride without vomiting in 5min and can follow me around the house or go hiking without being on a leash. Mackenzie is also very quick to respond when you need her guidance and boost your confidence that you and your pup can do this training together and maintain it. I’ve made a lot of mistakes and she has been my greatest support with my very challenging pup. It feels like she has become a part of my little family because she is the only person I trust with Charlie. He knows that her home is his second home where he gets to learn new tricks and commands and where he also feels safe and loved. Thank you Mackenzie from the bottom of my heart!"

"Mackenzie was fantastic with our Aussiedoodle. I love the attention she provided to each concern we had. She was very responsive with updates and has even checked on him after completing her training course. I would absolutely recommend her services."

"We went on vacation and she took care of our Cleo while we were gone. She kept me updated the whole time and made sure Cleo had the best care Cleo had so much fun and has found her second family!"

"We love Mackenzie! She takes great care of our girl and is very professional. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend her services!"
-Jen N.
"We are so happy to have found Pets in Progress. Our 1.5 year old dog, Goose, has loved every doggycation there and is always trying to head into the car to go back! Mackenzie takes great care of him as well as taking him on awesome adventures with his new friends he has made there! I would most definitely recommend Pets in Progress to anyone!"
-Michael T.
"We recently adopted a rescue dog who McKenzie had been training for 6 weeks. She did a great job with him - despite a difficult past, our dog has fit in very well with our routine and seems very happy. We will certainly use her boarding services as needed in the future. Highly recommend her."
-Gary M.
"I couldn’t recommend Pets in Progress more. Our Jolene stayed with there while we went on vacation. We received constant updates, photos and videos of our girl while away. She also worked on off leash training with her and sent her home freshly bathed! So glad we found you!"
-Britni W.
"McKenzie the owner is very professional, knowledgeable and great with animals, you can clearly see she loves and cares for them
We put our puppy in the Basic Puppy program which is three weeks, she schedules visits to show progress. We are very happy with the training Lady received she came back much more calm down and McKenzie was able to show us techniques to continue training at home. We would recommend her for boarding and especially the board and train program
Very affordable for the care and training your puppy will receive."
-Davida L.
"I am not a hiker but my Murphy needs to get the extra energy out. Going on these hikes does just that and he meets other dogs and socializes. He and Ruslan got along famously today and we can’t wait until the next outing. I got lots of pictures and updates about how he was doing throughout the day and it looks like he had a blast! Definitely recommend!"
-Erika C.
"10/10 would recommend. my furbaby has been extremely satisfied and wore out on all of his hikes so far. He’s such a good boy but not socialized that much so this has been wonderful socialization for him. he even made a friend with another hiking furbaby. Will definitely continue to send him on his weekly field trip. I like that every week is not the same exact place/plan and that she takes awesome pictures and takes the time to meet whatever needs/goals you and your furbaby have. you won’t be disappointed!"
-Evonca H.
"Very professional and my dogs really learned a lot from her courses highly recommend!"
-Devin D.
"We used pets in progress for a daycare visit and our dog really enjoyed her play day!
MacKenzie was very helpful and integrated the other dogs slowly one at a time to ensure everyone was comfortable with each other before I even left. I loved that it’s a home environment and lots of friends to play and socialize with as well as a fenced yard for them to run around in.
She gave me lots of updates with videos and pics during the day which helped us knowing our dog was enjoying herself the entire day. you can tell she loves all the dogs in her care and treats them as her own. Our dog had zero anxiety being there, and was still “smiling” when I picked her up that evening.
Not only did she do a great job, but she was affordable as well which I have found, is hard to find both, affordability AND quality, so that too, was important. We will definitely continue to use pets in progress!"
-Asheley W.
"Her services are top notch. When ever she comes to get our dog for a hike or for boarding they are super excited to see her. They know they are going to have a fun time."
-Jessica M.
"My husky is always full of energy. He was excited to get out into nature not only first thing in the morning, but also during his favorite time of the year. The moment he got back home, I could tell he had an incredible adventure. I would definitely recommend and will schedule again soon!"
-Slade B.
"Mackenzie is so great . My kids are in their early twenties. I had two dogs to pass away last year, they were 15 and 16years old. so it's been a long time since I've had a puppy in the house. It's been like starting all over with toddlers lol. I'm so glad I found her and pet in progress I was so used to just picking up and go to conferences and traveling, and she's made that possible again. She's so great! she's always came through and kept my Zeke. she's picked him up she's dropped him off. He loves going to her place and interacting with the other dogs. she's bathed, grooming and she's treats him like her own. She's helped with puppy training. she's even educated me on the breed who knew that you had to pluck dog's ears. Hopefully soon we'll get to start doing the hikes. Would recommend her to anyone!"
-Lindsey F.
"I left my 2 pups with her over the weekend because I had to be out of town and they had the best time ever! I constantly was updated with pictures and videos of them playing! I highly recommend pets in progress!"
-Brooke C.
"We have left our girls with Mackenzie twice and both times we picked up the happiest girls in the world! When we dropped them off for boarding they would use the bathroom in the house and our smaller pup did not know any commands. When we picked them up after 4 days they both knew basic commands and the potting in the house stopped! We booked with her again and it was amazing!
Our small tan pup was very skittish of everything and everyone and Mackenzie did amazing reading her body language and bit pushing her to be with her big dogs! She eventually got some courage and wanted to play with them! Our black and white pup LOVES to play with big dogs and Mackenzie closely monitored her with them!
We received several updates and pictures (I’ve attached a few for example) a day! She has been our go to for questions and advise as well was training and boarding! Our girls LOVE Miss Mackenzie and we know you will too!"
-Madeline R.
"We went on vacation for a week and let her take care of our two pups. They absolutely loved it and we loved the updates and how she stayed in touch with us with updates and how they was doing. She also took them on a hike and we look more than forward to using her services again. Trust me she’s the best!"
-Jeremy T.
"My two fur babies were taken such care while I was gone for a few days. I was provided updates and pictures every day. McKenzie loves what she does and puts her heart into it."
-Jodi D.
"Very Professional environment. The owner is very caring for your animals. Whether daycare or boarding, it’s a great environment. I totally trust her with my dog and his needs."
-Rick G.
"Mackenzie is the best of the best!! She took such good care of my fur babies and I did not have to worry one time if they were okay. She gave many updates and sent many pictures to give peace of mind. My pups absolutely LOVED staying with her and had the best time. 10000/10 recommend!!!"
