If you are looking for dog training, boarding your dog or dog day care this is the best place paws down! The entire team there is super friendly and kind, extremely helpful in every way and always take their time to be informative and communicative. You can see how they interact with the humans and dogs that every single person is a dog lover and 100% genuine. If you have read this far you should give them a call! Highest recommendation for A Closer Bond!!!

I highly recommend A Closer Bond for boarding and training.

Facility-immaculate. Very well organized and managed. Very good communication between handlers/trainers and with me. Everyone is so friendly, energetic and they seem to love what they do. My dogs love going there. And, when I pick them up, I know they have been well cared for. Peace of mind knowing they are in excellent hands. Can’t put a price tag on that.

Training-my 4 year old French Bulldog became very aggressive towards my 6 year old French Bulldog. I thought I was going to have to rehome him. But, I signed up for the training program at A Closer Bond. They did a wonderful evaluation and explained the training program in detail. Sarah and Angel are excellent dog trainers. They were able to get my dog to behave around my other dog! He is now very well behaved using only a choke collar. Angel and Sarah are so supportive throughout his ongoing training. The group training afterwards is a great way for the dogs and owners to socialize and work on training techniques. Highly recommend!

Dog Grooming-nails and a bath after boarding. Fabulous. Coat never looked so good and they smell so fresh and clean

Because of A Closer Bond, I have a well trained dog and there is no need to rehome him. I am able to board my dogs knowing they are at the best boarding facility. I drive about 45 minutes each way to drop/pick them up. There are closer boarding facilities near me. However, when I went for tours, they just could not compare to A Closer Bond.
I am so very thankful to the team at A Closer Bond. Top notch boarding and training facility. Big Tex and Little Leo are also so thankful!

We cannot say enough great things about A Closer Bond Dog Training Center and Sarah! We sent our two Shih Tzus, ages 1 and 2, to Sarah for the 3-week training camp, and we are absolutely amazed by the results.

From the moment they came home, we could see a huge difference in their behavior, obedience, and overall confidence. Sarah took the time to understand each dog’s personality and worked with them in a way that truly brought out the best in them. The transformation has exceeded all of our expectations.

One thing we especially appreciated was how Sarah kept us updated throughout the entire process. She regularly sent pictures and updates showing us what the dogs were learning each week, which gave us so much peace of mind while they were away. It was exciting to see their progress and know they were in such great hands.

Not only are our dogs much better listeners, but they are also calmer, more focused, and happier. Sarah also made sure we felt prepared when they came home and has continued to be an incredible resource. She is always eager to answer any questions we have and provides ongoing support whenever we need it.

If you’re considering professional training for your dog, we highly recommend Sarah and A Closer Bond. The investment was worth every penny, and we are so grateful for the incredible work she did with our pups. Thank you, Sarah, for helping our dogs become the best versions of themselves!

We had an awesome experience working with Alyssa and our dog LuLu. She worked with LuLu in such an incredible way that LuLu responded in such an adoring way. Alyssa worked with us and taught us everything she did with LuLu. It was like we had a new dog and it has been great walking with her. A Closer Bond gave us the best training experience. She was boarded there for a week and was well taken care of. She didn’t even appear mad that we left her! Lol! I think LuLu had a great week!

Our boy has been at A Closer Bond for nearly 14 years. Daycare, training, grooming and enrichment are all top-notch. I can really say there has been a great ‘BOND’ between the staff, our Walter & our family! Although his health keeps him from daycare, we still come for grooming & enrichment. They have all helped us in many was & they also adjusted with our crazy schedules! BTW: We come from Cary &/or Woodstock because we love it there!! Walter gives it 5 ‘ruffs’!🐾
