Thoroughly enjoyed our experience learning through the team at Sam Jack Ivy. our instructor. Ryann was incredible. Very patient with us and flexible to our schedule. Our dog Jack is a new dog the skills we learned along the way we can take to continue training Jack. Thanks again for all your help and I would not hesitate to recommend SamIvy to train your dog.

Working with Hollie from Team Sam Ivy has been an absolute game-changer for me and my dog, Luca. From day one, Hollie was warm, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. Her approach is structured but compassionate, and she made both Luca and me feel confident every step of the way. In just a short amount of time, my pup has transformed — no more whining in the crate, he’s fully potty trained, respectful of boundaries, walking beautifully on a leash, and thriving with commands like “spot.” I’ve seen real, lasting results and feel so much more connected to him. Hollie goes above and beyond in every session. Her passion for dogs and dedication to their growth is unmatched. It’s clear that this isn’t just a job for her — she genuinely cares about helping families build happy, well-behaved lives with their dogs. If you’re looking for a trainer who will bring out the best in your dog and truly invest in their progress, I can’t recommend Hollie and Sam Ivy enough. Thank you for everything!

We first worked with Sam and his team 12 years ago. My son (and his then 2 year old Doberman who had severe leash reactivity) called Sam looking for help. After working with both Brad and Sam, my sweet "Grandobe" (Bentley) became so much more enjoyable on walks and in public places. He's 14 years old now and still doing great after Sam and his team taught us how to make the necessary changes in our everyday lives with Bentley. We now have a 6 month old, beautiful new Doberman puppy (Levi). I had no hesitation in deciding who I would reach out to for beginning our puppy training journey. It was important to me to create a good training foundation with our new youngster. Levi and I had the joy of training with Treena. Levi's training has been seamless, enjoyable and a total success. Levi is doing exceptional and ready for the next advanced level of training thanks to Treena and her patience in teaching me how to "pivot" properly. Thank goodness she is so patient with her human student's. =) I highly recommend Sam and his team for any of your training needs! Their professionalism, eagerness to teach and 24/7 care are all you could ask for when training a pup or correcting "behavior problems" with an older dog. Thank you to Sam, Brad and Treena =)

After adopting two puppies at the same time, we reached out to Sam Ivy for help. The staff at Sam Ivy was very responsive and set us up for an interview immediately, and we were matched with a trainer.(Hollie). Hollie has taken on our challenges with patience and understanding, I appreciate her “tell it like it is” attitude. The virtual training is very convenient and they send you all the tools needed. I would highly recommend Sam Ivy for dog training.

Mookie, my 5 month old Frenchton, and I just did 3 and a half weeks of training with Hollie. Mookie hated wearing a collar and was a puppy bitter and chewer of everything. We got him acclimated to collar, leash and e collar quickly. He took to walks, spot and crate like a champ. Hollie is great via zoom with us, patient, and really knows her stuff. Great experience and loved how fare we both came out through this training.

My girlfriend and I got training with SamIvy and we do not regret it for a second! Our little gremlin, Molly, was a bit of a talker, always tried to rush out our door all the time, and wouldn’t wait for us for anything. Our trainer, Nick, was thoughtful and thorough through all of the details and it was very nice to be hands on involved with our training. I’d highly recommend the program and Nick to anyone!

We had Ryann as our trainer she is amazing! Our dog is trained! I can’t say enough about her, she explains things so you can understand. I did talk with the owner in the beginning because i did not like our trainer who were were first paired with. The owner actually called me and he really does care and resolved everything. Our dog is completely different in a good way! I cannot say enough good things about Ryann as our trainer she is so amazing! We were at our wits end and had tried serval different trainers and they all failed to help with our dog. But Samivy is amazing the transformation of our dog is incredible!

Difficult to explain how amazing this training from SamIvy has been. I have a 9 month Belgian Malinois that is easily the most obedient and well trained dog that I have seen in the Tampa Bay area. We have been to restaurants, air ports and other very dog friendly areas where people have asked me where he was trained. This is a high drive, high energy dog that is locked in to any command given. Nate and Gina provide tools that nothing on YouTube or others would provide based on my pups unique behavior. They are extremely flexible with consistent training schedules and have the knowledge of how certain dogs reacts to external stimulation. I would recommend (and have recommended them) to all that ask me. Training a dog involves both the dog and handler, SamIvy teaches both. I would give 6 stars if possible. Thank you Nate and Gina for the patience and training to get Abel to the point I am comfortable in any situation.
