Our Training Services


We offer puppy and adult dog group training classes (groups of 4 dogs maximum) or individualized training options at your home. As an addition we also offer special skills programs for highly energetic and curious dogs and provide online evaluation and counseling sessions to match your schedule. All training sessions are held by Manfred personally to ensure you and your pup can benefit the most from his knowledge, experience and philosophy.

All training methods are based on positive reinforcement and positive energy level training and will include our Labrador Maisy if needed. Our training philosophy does not include any kind of punishment and the use of prong, choke or shock collars is not utilized! We encourage you to build up a bond and companionship with your dog using positivity, trust and respect. All our training approaches are based on psychological understanding of the canine mind and learning their ways of communication rather than “quick solutions” like the above mentioned which can lead to negative behavior, fear, aggression and even serious injuries

Boarding and Daycare services


At Maisy's Mutts we offer you an exceptional experience on our "doggy farm" for dog boarding and daycare as an alternative to a classic kennel - for all those dogs who have a really strong bond with their owners, pack and family and are truly in search of a real "home away from home" with a professional training and care background. Never worry anymore about paying extra for half an hour of "cuddle or playtime"...these are included around the clock as we will treat your dog like our own family member while making sure with our professional experience that your dog gets exactly the care, physical and mental stimulation she needs!

We only accept a very limited number of dog guests and your dog will stay in our home together with us as a full member of our family. Your pooch will be more than grateful to enjoy every day with us on our farm and we will fully include your dog into our family and activities, depending on your dogs needs! From relaxing on the couch after roaming around and playing with us and our Labrador Maisy to small walks, sniffing and exploring around Folsom Lake and going for a swim - we follow your rules and wishes as well as the dog's routine to make sure they are the most comfortable. We believe in quality over quantity and always make sure all dogs are having a great time and we have a great "pack" that works well together*!


Prices start at:
  • 60 daycare
  • 90 overnight boarding

Due to insurance and other policies we have strict breed and socialization restrictions. Please CLICK HERE for a full price list, general terms and conditions and a list of excluded breeds.

Testimonials


Danielle M.:

I've had the pleasure of working with Manni the last few weeks and it has been great. His knowledge and approach is breed specific which truly has the best results. I've only had two training sessions so far and have seen significant improvements in my dog. Manni has gone over and beyond to help us (even texting and/or emailing outside of training hours). I am so glad that we found such a great trainer and I will definitely be recommending him in the future.

Amanda L.:

This was by far, the very best dog-sitting experience I have ever had and I knew that she was being very well taken care of. I was able to be worry-free while traveling, and have peace of mind, knowing my dog was safe, and having a great time! They were in contact with me the whole time, and sent great pictures of my dog. Definitely a 5-star rating, and a fantastic overall experience.

Ness L.:

Khalessi is my 4 month old Service Pup and I was sooo nervous to leave her for a day. But Manni let us come over and meet him and the other two doggies!! This was so nice and understanding of him! It put my mind at ease to see her integrate into the pack so well! Manni's background as a Dog Trainer also helped too.
I was so happy find a family that I can trust with my lil girl! He sent me constant pictures of them playing and walking! He was awesome about her feeding schedule and was very attentive and made sure she wasn't overwhelmed by the bigger doggies! She is such a big help to me and I was so glad that we found this family!! This was such a rad experience!! I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy, caring, attentive and super cool place for their pup!!!

Mario M.:

I absolutely can't say enough about what a wonderful time my dog had and how relaxed I was being away from him, and knowing I am an over protective dog owner. I left for my trip and before I even arrived, I had pictures of my dog Max with his golden retriever smiles and tail wagging in a number of pictures playing with their dog Maisy and with another cute dog being watched by them. Everyday I had no questions as the updates and pictures were more than enough to know he was being well taken care of. Top notch dog sitting here, five out of five stars. Proof was Max was happy to get home, but once he settled in, I could tell he was sad. Sad because he missed the friends and time he had at Manni and Whitney's. I will definitely be going back for sure.

Rekha M.:

Best time Teddy ever had and has become better trained too. We are very happy with the care and love he got and had a great time along with their dog Maisy.
