about our stellar school
led by certified dog trainer Lauren in a loving home environment where your dog can thrive.
Traditional doggy daycare can leave dogs overtired, overstimulated and even foster problematic behavior. We take a different approach, ensuring a well-rounded experience for your dog through tailored enrichment activities, engaging playtime, training sessions, sniffy walks, scheduled down time, and cozy accommodations. Trust us to nurture and guide your pet with expertise and compassion.
Your dog can enjoy a small group setting or their own space based on their individual social preferences.
step 1: tell us about
your dog & needs
step 2: acclimation session
$95/30mins
Once we receive your form, we’ll set up a time to meet your dog and get acquainted
before school starts. This will take place at or near Lauren (your trainer)’s residence.
Stellar School will be booked following a successful acclimation session.

I cannot say enough positive things about Lauren's professionalism and commitment to treating both me and my dog with the highest standard of care.
“After a short time Lauren is already part of our "pack". My chihuahua is a high strung little gal who does not warm easily to others, so to have seen how much love she developed for Lauren in such a short time period is a testament to Lauren's skillfulness and kindness. Moreover, Lauren's knowledge of behavioral training protocols as well as her experience in assessing unique health issues have improved our lives. Lauren is our go to for all of these areas and we give her the very highest recommendation possible.”
