Reviews
I have known Kelsey for more than 10 years and have seen her develop her canine business with honesty and integrity. She loves dogs and will do the right thing to do what it takes to bring out the best in the dog and make its human a better owner. I recommend her for all your doggy needs
Kelsey is by far one of the best trainers I’ve worked with! Her detailed instructions for success and knowledge of all things dogs is simply amazing—10/10 will recommend every time
5 Stars – Kelsey is a Legend
Kelsey at Grassroots K9 Maryland is the real deal. From the moment you meet her, you know you’re in good hands — and so is your dog. She’s got this rare combo of straight-shooting honesty and saint-like patience that makes you trust her immediately (and maybe want to nominate her for a Nobel Peace Prize).
She doesn’t waste time with fluff or vague advice. She tells you exactly what’s working, what’s not, and how to fix it — all while somehow managing to stay kind, calm, and encouraging. It’s like having a dog trainer, life coach, and therapist rolled into one very capable human.
And I’ve gotta shout out the facility, too — it’s clean, organized, and clearly run by people who care about what they do. No chaos, no weird smells, no mystery puddles. Just good vibes and serious results.
If you want a trainer who gets straight to the point, doesn’t BS you, and actually knows what she’s doing — Kelsey’s your girl. I’ve learned more from her in a few sessions than I ever did from a stack of training books and 200 hours of YouTube videos.
Bottom line: she’s the one you want in your corner. Hands down.
Kelsey and her team in Maryland are first class, wonderful to work with and have a beautiful space to train in Perryville. Would recommend to families with pets, and any working dogs for detection & protection. If you are looking for real world, knowledgeable trainers.. this is it!
Kelsey has been amazing from Day 1 on our introductory call. She is not only a great dog trainer, but a great communicator, listener and educator. I love that Grassroots offers training in different environments and options. I have a reactive Frenchie that has a lot of difficulty with new people coming into our home, and the fact that Kelsey comes to me was amazing. My dogs were not used to the crate prior to getting started and I have my 9yo and puppy Frenchie’s that are great with the crate now. I have noticed a lot of improvements with some other behaviors we have been working on, putting my life as a pet mama at ease. ❤️ I also used some of my package days to do the Board N Train, and though I was nervous at first, Kelsey put my mind at ease and the dogs did so well and were so happy when they came home. I ended up purchasing additional packages and look forward to continuing our training this year with Kelsey. Thank you Kelsey and the Grassroots team for such a wonderful program for pet owners!
