Congratulations! You have just found one of the best to train and care for your dog. Sarah has worked wonders for Boomer (my 6 month old Aussie Shepherd/Lab mix). I saw the difference in his behavior in just a few weeks. She's taught me how to work with Boomer to modify behavior and it's been great. I'm not sure who's learned more----me or Boomer!! Sarah and her partner Jeff also run Rompin Rover's daycare. Boomer loves it. It's the perfect compliment to the training we've received. They reinforce what Boomer's learned and provide him with "safe and supervised" play and social interaction, both important to his development. He loves his play group and can't wait to get out of the car in the morning! It's a great way for Boomer to use his energy, allows us to vary our work/play schedules and has had a positive influence on Boomer. - Cathy and Boomer - March, 2011

“Rompin' Rovers is a great dog day care center. Sarah and her staff truly live up to their motto of “We love your dog as much as you do!” Sarah Tripp is an excellent dog trainer and has helped my puppy, ‘Doodle’, a Belgian Malinois mix, to become a more social, confident and obedient pet. I have also learned how to communicate better with my pet and this has made for a much better and more enjoyable relationship. Since her first day, Doodle has been very happy to go to Rompin’ Rovers and it has been very convenient if I need to drop her early or run errands and pick her up as late as 7:00 pm. Sarah and her staff are always gracious and great animal handlers. I cannot say enough about how much I appreciate this great day care for dogs and how happy Doodle is every day to see her ‘puppy pack’. I recommend Rompin’ Rovers completely and unconditionally. Doodle and I both think they are great! Mike Hanna M.ED - March 2, 2011

“I have been bringing Stella, my 2yr old French Mastiff, to Rompin’ Rovers Doggie Daycare for over a year and a half. I started out taking her 3 days a week, and then moved up to 4 days, and now she goes 5 days a week. I cannot say enough about how wonderful daycare has been for her! She LOVES, LOVES, LOVES going every day and gets soo excited when I pull into the parking lot! I also took advantage of the basic obedience class that is offered and it was very beneficial for Stella as well as for me. Sarah has been soo helpful and always available to answer any of my questions or concerns regarding any issues with Stella’s behavior and/or training. I would highly recommend Rompin’ Rovers to anyone who wants a happy, well-adjusted dog, and content owner! It has been a very valuable asset to my life as well as Stella’s!” -Amy and Stella - March 2011

Obedience:
I am writing this to show my gratitude to the excellent training I received from Sarah. I have two English Mastiff who are still big babies. I was so frustrated that I could not walk them to my car much less on a casual walk around the block. After only one lesson, I was able to walk them to the care and after 2 lesson, we are now walking around the block. I want to thank you, Sarah, for all your patience and expertise with my babies. Thanks again,- Pat Franczyk, BJ, and Mylo- March 2011

"Finding just the right trainer for a new puppy can be a challenge. We found that out with our very high energy Goldendoodle. When he was a puppy, he went to puppy group training and basic group training classes and didn't really benefit from either. When he was about six months old, we hired two different personal trainers for our dog who did not have the desired training practices that we were looking for to help us with our dog.
Sarah Tripp was recommened to us and she was a perfect match. We initially hired her for six weeks and we saw so much improvement in our dog's behavior that we decided to keep working with her for more advanced training.Sarah was extremely positive yet firm with our dog. He immediately warmed upto her and after one visit he obeyed several commands that he had not previously mastered. Sarah would work overtime if she was not pleased with the dog's progress yet she would not push the dog beyond his frustration level. Although now a 13 month old pup, he is very well behaved and a joy to be around thanks to the diligence and patience of his trainer Sarah.We cannot thank or praise her enough for the work she has done in training our dog to be the dog anyone would love to have. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a highly qualified trainer". Jane Pearl and Paul Jones- February 4, 2011.

Sarah and Jeff operate a very professional, caring and personal operation. We are extremely satisfied, and very comfortable, with our association with Sarah and Jeff at Rompin Rovers.
Our Doberman puppy, Greta, immediately bonded with Sarah on their first training session and the results of that interaction/training are obvious and evident. Sarah’s knowledge and skill makes the training for Greta, not to mention my wife, grandson and myself, a fun and learning experience. Sarah’s training program is structured so that we can continue training Greta after her official training session. Her knowledge, patience and experience are evident in her interaction both with the animal as well as the owners.
We utilize their Day Care services and Greta actually looks forward to going there. This experience has made Greta a more social and overall rounded dog, pet and friend.
We are so satisfied with Rompin Rovers that we have recommended them to our family members, friends as well as Greta’s Vet. Bruce and Rita Martin- March, 2011

It is with complete confidence that we recommend Sarah Tripp with Rompin Rovers for your pets training. We have two 1 1/2 year old male Yorkies and needed help with the proper training for walking. The boys Sherlock and Bentley were so confortable with Sarah the moment they met her. The walking session was excellent and rewarding for both dogs. Professional training at the highest level. -David and Ronda- Seminole, Florida

Dear Sarah,
Jeff and I cannot thank you enough for the amazing work you did with our yellow lab, Dixie. Your board and train series is worth every penny! Dixie now has the basic obedience skills to make her a joy to be around and to take on walks. And as you know, that was NOT the case before she came to Rompin Rovers. I couldn't walk her at all without being dragged down the block. Now she listens to her heel command and really wants to do well.
You also gave us an insight into Dixie's personality that we didn't know before her board and train stay. To know that she is such a social animal is really helpful. WE can now take her to the dog park and into friend's homes with confidence.
So thank you again very much. I'm sure we'll be back for some advance obedience work!
Regards,
Kelly and Jeff Evans -October 3rd, 2011
When I first turned to Rompin Rovers for help in training my 5-month-old Morkie, Shamis, he was a rambunctious and strong-willed puppy. Within a couple weeks, Sarah transformed Shamis into a well-mannered, obedient member of my family. Shamis is now able to follow basic commands and walk on a leash without pulling, which is amazing since he spent more than 3 months of his life in a pet store window. Shamis became a part of my family when he was a little over 4 months old and he needed to learn what the outside world was such as grass, toys, etc. all this was foreign to him let alone know what manners or a leash was. Sarah and Chris provided me with helpful on-going guidance and instruction while addressing my puppy’s specific needs. They help him with mastering these new skills by reinforcing them while he attends day care also. Shamis is extremely thankful for the daycare and all his new friends, but I believe I am even more grateful for the energy he gets to release while he is there J. Their patient and supportive teaching was invaluable to me and vital to my success with Shamis. They provided me with the groundwork, tools, and confidence needed to continue my training Shamis at home. Enrolling Shamis in training classes at Rompin Rovers was the best investment I could have made for my puppy and I. I couldn’t be more pleased with the results!

Hi Sarah,
I wanted to thank you for all you did for my three puppies. I cannot say enough positive things about Sarah, and Rompin Rovers. I had called around trying to figure out the best solution to have my three, yes three, 5 month old blue heeler puppies get trained.
After talking with Sarah, I decided Rompin Rovers would best fit my needs. I really liked the fact that when they weren't working one on one with Sarah, they would be exposed to doggie daycare as well, with reinforcement of what they were learning.
Sarah spent a lot of time with me on the phone, even before I had committed to take the dogs to her facility. She answered all of my questions, gave me some tips to use immediately, and even offered to come meet the pups for a quick session prior to their scheduled training.
I was very happy after the first week of training with the improvements in my pups. By the end of week two, it was pretty amazing the progress they had made. When you see Sarah with animals, it's obvious she loves them and her dedication and hard work are so evident when you receive your dog back. She and Chris kept me posted on their progress every day, and I felt confident while the dogs were in their care. One of the dogs had an episode of some bloody stool one morning, and Sarah immediately called and offered to take the dog to her vet if I desired. Again, just reinforces her commitment to the great care they offer at their facility.
I would not hesitate to recommend Sarah and Rompin Rovers for either daycare or especially for training. We are so pleased with the results with our babies. We will continue to use Rompin Rovers for daycare as well.
Thanks, Sarah and Chris!!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Rompin' Rovers! This is the best place for your furry friend to learn to socialize and expend all of that extra energy. Sara and Chris are absolutely wonderful with the dogs! They have such an understanding of their furry clients and are extremely caring and kind. The Board and Train is a wonderful added feature. It really made the difference to me to help turn my dog around. Sara is always more than willing to take the extra time to help you with any concerns you may have regarding your pet. Tanner and I couldn't be any more pleased than to have found this "home away from home". Please try it...your dog will thank you for it! -Linda and Tanner, January 2012
