Jodie is the best!!! She’s the most talented, patient, and accommodating dog trainer I’ve ever worked with. Truly has a “way” with dogs. She has been amazing helping us with our dog’s severe reactivity and separation anxiety and does everything possible to make Winnie feel comfortable when we board him at the facility. Her facilities are sparkling clean and well maintained. She has also helped us with basic obedience training for our new puppy and we couldn’t be more pleased with how she’s developing so far! You are in excellent hands if you take your dog here for boarding, classes, or private training!

Jodie is awesome. She has a deeper insight into my dogs mind than any other dog trainer weve worked with (and there have been many). Her group classes are so much fun and helps my dog behave better around other dogs.

They are wonderful here. Everyone was great with the dogs and super informative. I also think it was very reasonably priced. I would recommend this business to anyone!

Called 2 or 3 time’s no answer left message. They never returned my calls. Filled out their online contact form that said they would contact me in 24 to 48 hours. That was almost a week ago and still no response.

We love Jodie and she has been extremely helpful with our three rotties. Especially the two that are over a year old and wasnt able to get into training as puppies due to covid. They have come a long way but still need a lot of work. Our younger one has been a dream in class though and shes done wonderful.

A fun and practical dog training series with my one year old dachshund. Staff are kind, straightforward and knowledgeable.

Sent an e-mail via the website, heard nothing back. Moving on.

Jodie is AMAZING! I really dont understand any of the negative reviews here. I have a toy Australian shepherd who I started taking to Jodie right when she was 11weeks. I immediately noticed the organization, structure, and professionalism Jodie offers in her puppy classes. I have seen MANY trainers and I am very quick to judge on the small things but nothing bad to say here. Her dog boarding is also extremely convenient and Jodie got my Luna in last minute there on many occasions. I recommend her to everyone I see with a dog!

Jodie and Staff delight our little Hannah Belle! She is excited to go to school and more excited when she sees her teachers! Jodie has a way with every dog. Relaxed and ❤ loving experience for us and our Doxie!

Joding is Amazing with all she does for my dogs and everyone.

Jodie is knowledgeable, friendly and fun. She has good ideas to help with issues you may have with your dogs and is willing to help you. I have taken both my dogs to her and they both love her. Her prices are fair. I recommend her to anyone who asks about a trainer.

Jodie and her team are so knowledgeable and truly care about your dog. Such a wide variety of classes offered (puppy training, adult training, dog sports, and more) plus day care and boarding. They know what you need to make your dog happy and to make your home happier with your dog in it! Jodie is so aware of the best way to train certain personalities/breeds and explains everything so well. We cant stop coming back because our puppy loves it and has become an all around more obedient dog!!

Jodies behavior is extremely unprofessional. Despite submitting the contact form on her website and making two phone calls and sending a text, she never returned my calls (I had been trying to find out when February training programs would be scheduled). By chance, I re-checked her website and the February-March schedule was up (and the program was already half full). Based on her lack of professional behavior and bad temper, I would never trust her judgment. It did not take much for her to lose it and start yelling. It makes me wonder how humane she is with her own pets and in her own interpersonal interactions and relationships. Unfortunately, there are few organized programs for puppy school and dog training in Cham-bana. I suggest you think twice about your options before committing. I feel certain that I would have wanted a refund on the $119 fee if I had stuck it out. By the way folks, Jodie says nothing much happens the first session of the level one program, so its no big deal if you miss it - thats what she told me. Not a great value, nor a competent business person.

I was recommended by a co-worker. Have been going to Jodies for training and the daily academy for a few months now. We enjoy both. Jodie, Dylan, Doug and the rest of the staff are great with our doberman. If youre looking for a modern day approach to dog training definitely check out Jodie.

This is a great place for dog training. Jodie is very knowledgable and obviously has a lot of experience. She creates a great atmosphere for the dogs to learn (its a great big space). She has plenty of helpers there to ensure there are plenty of trainers for all the dogs in class.

I am currently in class with my third puppy I absolutely love the classes they make learning fun. Staff is amazing and they truly care about the dogs. Highly recommend

A wonderful, positive training center!

Excellent trainer! In just 6 weeks we had our very rambunctious puppy under control. We really liked the positive/treat based training. Highly recommend!

What a great trainer! Jodie has great training techniques and has taught us so much. Our dogs have made huge progress under her training. The facility is super nice and clean, and schedule is flexible. Highly recommend!

Jodie was knowledgeable and easy to talk to. The facility is very nice!

Jodie is the best dog trainer in town. She came highly recommended by our vet. I was really impressed by how effective her methods were with our puppy. Definitely planning on taking more classes!

Best dog trainer in C-U! Jodie has helped me so much with my 2 GSDs! I don t know what I would do without her. She only uses positive methods and always has a solution for whatever dog issue you are having. I would not go anyplace else and I have tried others! :)

Jodie and her staff are just wonderful! My dog Miggy has been attending Academy and some of the classes for more than a year now. He has blast, comes home exhausted (which is great) and he has learned to be a good dog. Can not recommend Jodie Vees any more highly! If you want your dog to have a great life and be a terrific companion, send your pooch to these folks.

I took my dog here as a requirement for adopting a young dog from the Champaign County Humane Society. For my first class, I worked primarily with Florence. She is a wonderful, upbeat woman that really had a knack for working with dogs. She is so incredibly patient and was able to make my dog respond! I had a great experience with her.After taking another set of classes, this time with Jodie, I had different feelings. The class wasnt very structured and I felt like things were not progressing. My dog and I would sit there feeling like we were wasting time because we actually practiced outside of class. Maybe it was the class that was behind or we were ahead? Either way we lost the enjoyment of being in class.Next, we took therapy dog classes. After taking these classes I do not plan to return to Jodie Vees. I was not happy with the structure and execution of these classes.

Jodie is an amazing trainer! She takes the time to really watch each dog individually and really tries to get to know all the owners. She also knows how to read the emotions of the group and will adjust the class as needed for the comfort of both the dogs and owners. I would highly recommended her to any one in the Champaign-Urbana. My only major regent are that I did not find her sooner.

Best dog training facility in town... or in the whole county! Indoors and outdoors, the right flooring to keep dogs safe, and soooo many fun classes to take.

Jodie really took the time to evaluate my little dog and provide the right training needs and class. She is AMAZING

Jodie is great with dogs and has a variety of classes to keep your dog interested. The staff she has working with here are also very knowledgeable.

Best dog trainer in CU. She has trained 3 of our dogs when we had babies around. Very professional.

I dont have a dog now..but it is a good place to take your dog for dog training and agility. ☺

Best place to train and have fun with your pet.

Ezceptional trainer and facility! Reasonably priced and great to work with!

Sweet and caring people who want the best for your dog

Our pup loves the puppy classes.

Very nice group of people. They really care about animals

Friendly, clean, open to all levels

Awesome, place?

Teddy may never be the perfect pup, but Jodies training helped immensely in certain areas.
