Ruff Timez Dog Training Academy 

Clients can cancel or reschedule appointments up to 24 hours before start time.

We've been working with Mavia at Ruff Timez since our puppy came home at 12 weeks for both training and dog sitting. We feel like we hit the jackpot. Mavia is skilled, kind and direct. Our dog Jade LOVES her and gets excited for every lesson and sleep over. As first time pet owners, we've learned so much from Mavia. When we encounter an unexpected "problem" behavior,  Mavia knows what's up right away and has clear, specific strategies to help get us back on track. Highly recommended. 

That was the most informative meeting I have had with someone. Mavia was on time she made sure we all had a thorough understanding of our dogs and their behaviors and communication. She gave us excellent home work. She is accessible responsive and very detailed  with your pets. I would recommend her to all people looking for dog training !

Mavia & Chantel are wonderful. Our fur boys are always excited to arrive @ Ruff Timez! We enjoy our time away, knowing our boys are in good hands, having a good time with fur friends and caring people. Thanks again!!!

I highly recommend Mavia for training. She is very knowledgeable in dog behavior and has helped me tremendously. She is patient and clear with her instructions. I keep having her come back because I see results!

Mavia is Marvelous!!!

We feel very hopeful that Mavia’s design of training will give us the tools to help Ziggy be the best he can be!  We look forward to future sessions to help reach our goals!

Thank You Kindly
Jacalyn :)

Mavia is the best. She’s so knowledgeable and patient. I can’t wait for our next lesson. 

My dog loves coming here! Always recommend to my friends and family.

Chantal  did Avery good job .  My animal were well taken care of.  In addition, she stayed an extra night when we were stranded in Miami.

Thanks!

Mavia, 

Is an amazing trainer. She is knowledgeable and trains us to train our fur baby. I can’t recommend her enough. Worth every penny. 

Mavia is the best! I learned that my rescue dog becomes fear aggressive around grooming implements and receiving medications. And she is a very picky eater. Mavia is a positive trainer! She walked me thru several exercises to do with my dog, coached me on how and when to do the exercises to desensitize my dog over time to its feared implements (yes, there is hope!), and helped me with dog food solutions. Mavia has astounding, uncommon dog wisdom. 

It was so wonderful, informative and really taught us a lot on how a dog perceives our actions and appropriate commands to use.

Had the trainers stop by to allow my 2 dogs out to play while I was on a short trip... As always, they showed up on time.   They care for your dogs like they are their own.  The dogs love their time with them....And O was able to enjoy my 1/2 trip and my 2 puppies had some fun also... They are very professional and we will use them again soon.. 

Thank you for helping with our new dog. We learned so much from you already. 

We have seen many trainers before and most of them just put a prong on our dog and correct him. Mavia, on the other hand, had a reward system and force-free approach with our dog. She told us our dog is fearful reactive and gave us really good tips, advice, and homework on how to work with him. We learned so many things in just our consultation and she respected our dog’s boundaries the whole time. We loved her methods and we are looking forward to our training sessions!

 I have used Ruff Timez for boarding, daycare, training, and grooming.  My dog loves to go to Ruff Timez and is sad when I come to bring him home!  Mavia uses positive reinforcement training which I think is the best approach to training dogs.  I look forward to group training resuming in Fair Oaks.

Mavia with Ruff Timez is amazing…. She spent as much time training and educating my humans as she did working with me  (Dexter) to help them better understand why I do what I do.  I also love to come visit when my humans go out of town for the weekend - they always say I come back a better dog.

Thanks Mavia!

Exceptional all around, especially training. Other services are top notch too.  Training and caring for dogs is a passion for Mavia, who is  very skilled and naturally gifted in understanding and working with a wide variety of behaviors. She has done wonders for my rescue dog, helping her to gain confidence toward overcoming fears and me to learn how to best work with my girl. Mavia excels at training, addressing behavior issues, and strengthening the bond between dog and human. A++ Service.

10/10. Mavia is amazing with my dog, Chaka. She is kind, but also firm. We have done several training sessions and we have also done pet sitting. The experience with the pet sitting made Chaka’s interactions with my other dogs much more pleasant. We plan to continue working with Mavia and her team.

Excellent knowledge and advice during consultation. Looking forward to my first training!

Excellent knowledge and technique.  I am very happy to have found you.

She is very confindent, and knowledgeable - looking forward to working with her more

Mavia was a great evaluator! She gave helpful tips and explained the process very well.

Can’t say enough about the professionalism and attention to detail regarding the care of my pets and home.  I can rest assured that my pets are being cared for as I care for them. Communication is excellent complete with  pictures and answering any questions I might have. Thank you Mavia  for your expertise!  

Mavia is personable, professional and has a wealth of knowledge. My husband and I adopted a 3yr. old rescue dog (James) with significant trauma history and extreme anxiety. Mavia educated us on the functions of James’ behaviors and provided us with specific interventions and tools for use to effectively manage his engaged behaviors. We don’t know where we would be without Mavia and Ruff Timez team. We cannot thank Mavia and the Ruff Timez enough. I highly recommend Mavia and the Ruff Timez team

Mavia and Chantel are my go-to people for everything dog.   From basic training, to dog sitting, to advanced training dealing with dog aggression issues.   I fully trust our fur babies with them.   

Mavia is a true godsend! She really understands dog behaviors & each solution she's taught us has been highly effective. We are absolutely amazed in the changes we are already experiencing with our pup. Looking forward to our continued training sessions & the pet sitting she offers to help our boy to overcome his separation anxiety.

Always a great experience! Highly recommend for both dog sitting and training!

Fantastic trainers! Mavia and Chantel have helped me and my husband for over two years have a better relationship with our 5 year old rescue German Shepherd. She is turning out to be a great dog thanks to all their positive work with her and us! Can’t recommend enough!!!!

Mavia helped us with training catered specifically to our family’s abilities and needs for our reactive, anxious dog. She also offers amazing care with pet sitting and overnight stays. We feel so at ease when our dog is in her presence. She is a professional and extremely knowledgeable! Could not recommend more! The best 

Chantel and Mavia are incredible. They take such good care of our boys!

Mavia is the best, the last hour we spent together was amazing! Really looking forward to Continueing our training, both mine and Harley’s. 

Chantel was great! She kept us up to date, and took great care of our fur baby. We will using the service again.

We are so happy that Mavia is our trainer. We've had a few sessions with Mavia now and have learned a lot. I have 3 Shiba Inus. They are a difficult and stubborn breed to train and are very apprehensive of new people, but they just love Mavia and listen so well to her. Mavia is very easy to get ahold of, her prices are affordable (& totally worth it!), and she offers so many tips and tricks that we can use daily to manage the Shibas' behavioral issues. Thank you, Mavia!

Mavia is absolutely amazing. She is extremely knowledgeable about dog behavior. I had many questions and she had a clear direct answer for every single one of them! It's obvious she genuinely wants to see you and your dog understand each other. She goes over the steps but also the WHY so you can better understand how the method will work when it comes to the dogs emotional state and adjust. From resource guarding to teeth brushing she had a strategy for everything. I can't recommend her enough!

I’ve worked with Ruff Timez for over three years and would recommend them to anyone looking for help with their dog! 

I always have such peace of mind when Mavia or Chantel are with my pets and I have no worries.
They do a great job  Pet sitting and hanging out with my fur babies when I’m away.
