My 4 year old boy has always pulled his leash when being walked and I was unable to walk him. Only my husband and son could handle him but since having him trained here, I’m able to walk him. We can also walk him off leash as he listens to all of our commands. Such a pleasure to walk him. I look forward to it!We also had him groomed there (Natalie) and they did such a nice job.We still go to lessons with his trainer Austin. He meets us weekly on the trails to continue training US! He’s very knowledgeable and explains himself in laymen’s terms.Simba misses going there so we bring him to their daycare once a week so he can have some fun with the other doggos and swim. He loves it there and so do we. Glad we found this gem.

We have had two dogs trained by Woof Beach. They have done an excellent job with our dogs, take consideration the breed, size and help us continually to work on behavior corrections and it is has been a great experience. I really like how they train and work with the dogs and take the time to make you understand how/why and break down the steps to the goal of getting the dogs to do what you need and want them to do. Their groomers are excellent and take great care with the dogs so they are comfortable in all stages of the grooming. My dogs love going there and are excited to see all the staff.

One of the dog groomers here in Aurora, and may I say one of the more reliable ones. My family's dog has been groomed here without delay, and staff have always been polite and quick to call back. Shout out to Natalie for doing such a great job! Will be coming here for a long time.

I cannot express how grateful we are to the Woofbeach Bay team. Our golden started training at 4 mo and after going through their basic and advanced basic training programs, she is a different dog. They are experts and love all of the dogs as their own. We’ve had so many complements on how well behaved our dog is. We’d definitely go back if we get another dog!

Signed Bruno up for on and off leash training. Very happy with results. Austin and the Woofbeach team are great! Highly recommend.

Had a good experience here, we will begin training soon so hopefully I can update everyone.*UPDATE* We took our 1 yr old boxer here as we were truly desperate he was 70 lbs and did not listen to much. We taught him how to use a bell when he wanted to go out and to wait for his food but doing much else was a mission. It was a struggle to walk him and I could not sit near him on our couch without getting smashed by him (he thinks hes a lap dog). At one point he became a kitchen dog and it sucked. We went here for the basic training and off leash training and it helped tremendously. We have even taught our young kids the correct commands and he will obey. I know we will need some refreshers but these lessons literally gave me confidence with dog to walk him without fear of being dragged or him pulling the leash out of my hands.I want to thank Austin, Amy, and Alfonso for caring for my dog and helping us with everything ♡ PS the grooming and daycare are great as well!

Our Newfie puppy is 10 months and over 100 lbs. this was her first experience with a groomer and we could not be happier. Natalie was very kind and patient with our puppy and the dog looks fabulous! She explained the process and our puppy was not at all stressed when we picked her up. We booked our next appointment before leaving! What a great place!

Our dog went through training with Kate and we couldn’t be happier. Liz is amazing and both of them make me feel like our dog is the most special pet! I’m so impressed how they love on our pup like she was their own! Hugely recommend Woodbeach and especially Liz and Kate!

Very impressed with Woof Beach Bay.I have 2 Great Pyrenees puppies, breed which is known for poor recall, independent thinkers and difficult to train.Job well done by Woof Beach Bay. We spent about 8 weeks and results are AMAZING!. I can walk both dogs together off leash now. We really enjoy our trips to parks, Home Depot.Pets Mart and other public places I cannot thank Ms Taylor(Manager) and her staff. She even came to the house few times to train.This place is highly recommended.

We've had three dogs trained here.Prices are kinda steep, but they even out when you take into account that your pup will have day care four days a week for a month, and will come home exhausted from all the training and play!They also allow you to drop off AND pick up after hours. This is such a convenient option, especially when you have plans that changed at the spur of the moment, and have to drop them off without notice.I took off one star because, in my opinion, they should be more open with what the dogs are learning every week, so that you can be a cohesive part of the training.Maybe having "This week we worked your puppy on" YouTube videos, handouts etc. Instead of having to wait until the end of 4 weeks to train the owners on what to say/do when the puppies are at home. Just so that everyone is teaching the puppy consistently.

Have gone here for grooming for several years, Robin and Natalie do an awesome job! My dog is very small and anxious but he walks himself right into this place. He would be desperately trying to get away from other grooming places, it’s a huge difference. They really know how to treat dogs well! I won’t go anywhere else.

Awesome staff and great facility. You can tell they actually care about our pooches so it's not just $ coming in, it's their furry buds they enjoy watching over.

I am so excited and happy to report Taylor the Manager at this location is AMAZING!! Our pup Bailey has enjoyed the last 2 days at puppy daycare and she is starting training next week. You can feel the love from these associates in taking care of all the different breeds. I would highly recommend this puppy daycare over some of the others we have experienced!! Thank you!!

The District Manager, Austin Graham, saved my elderly cat from a burning tree, he started by putting out the fire with only the water in his environmentally friendly water bottle, he climbed up the 20 foot tree, ripped off his shirt to create a basket like object to safely descend with my cat in hand. After all this I offered him a $20 tip (all I had in my wallet) but instead he gave me $200 and bought me lunch at the local Taco Bell. Just when I thought my day couldn’t get any better, Austin chopped down the already dead tree, using every inch of the wood to build a small house for my cat in my backyard. I went back a week later to find out that Austin had planted 3 new trees in its place to support the planet.

I sent my Siberian Husky "Bleu" at 6month of age for training to WoofBeach in Aurora. He has completed the initial training - the staff is excellent, friendly and devoted to training. They train we owners too - as long as it takes . My dog now goes to the daycare a couple times per week...He loves it!! When I tell him we are going to school he can't wait to get his leash on and get into my car. He gets so excited he talks to me in his Husky talk. Love that I can trust my dog to their care and he is happy there. Also may I say he is exhausted when he gets home. I have been complemented many times for his behavior in pet stores and in public when walking. If you have a dog that your considering training. I recommend WoofBeach without hesitation. I can't say enough how pleased I am with their dedication and service.

Both of my dogs go see Kate for routine training and even for some touch ups. She has even traveled to my house to do at-home training. My dogs love going to Woofbeach and get so excited when we ask "do you want to go see Kate?!". Kate has taught us so much to make sure our on their best behavior. Liz is also great with working with my boys and making them look so pretty and always smelling great!We know when we drop them off, they are in great care. Thank you Liz, Kate and the rest of the Woofbeach team!

I have taken my dog to see Liz & Kate since we moved here from out of state. I have literally followed Liz from three Woof Beach locations because my dog loves her. The staff is so nice, and it is super clean. I am really finicky about cleanliness and safety with my dog and I know when I leave her at Woof Beach I never have to worry. Our dog gets really nervous at the groomer, and she still gets excited to see them; which says a lot about their gentle nature. Our doodle gets a lot of compliments on how pretty her “floof” looks and how nice she always smells. We “woof” them so much, 10/10.

We have gone to Woof Beach for four years. They did a great job training our dog and have done her grooming also. Excited that they are in Aurora. Liz does a great job with grooming. Will keep going back!

We love WoofBeach Bay! I have been bringing my dog here for several years. They do both great on leash and off leash training. They also work great with aggression.We recently got puppy also and now he is in training. They have come to our house to help with some specific things as well. We loved Kate so much that we followed her, and Liz, to the Aurora store. The boys also love them and get so excited to see them.Liz has been grooming my boys and has always done a phenomenal job. The boys both get excited to go see Kate and Liz!! I trust these ladies with my boys and would recommend anyone tske advantage of theit training, knowledge and thr WoofBeach lifetime guarantee. It won't disappointe!

Our dog gets so excited to go inside and see Kate and Liz. I like that this location has a separate daycare room too. I tell anyone who is interested in training for their dog that this is absolutely the place to go. They are the best.

Just has the pups groomed this afternoon at the new location, Woofbeach Bay in Aurora. Bella & Chester were so excited to see Liz & she did a wonderful job, as usual, for both of them! And they got to see Kate, Chester’s trainer, perfect day for the fur kids!

I witnessed some unfortunate actions taking place while parked behind this facility. While the dogs were being taken outside to go to the bathroom, I saw a worker aggressively yanking on the leashes of the dogs. I guess she must have been frustrated and wanted the dogs to hurry up but you should NEVER treat a dog that way, especially someone else’s dog who is entrusting you with their care. These dogs were clearly terrified and upset.I entered the building to let the manager know. She apologized but it felt like she was just trying to get me out. When I left, the same worker continued taking out the other dogs. Please don’t take your dogs here. It was sad to watch.

Brought my pup to see Liz for a grooming today. Stellar job, as always. Everyone at Woofbeach Bay is so kind and professional. They do a great job and, most importantly, really love the animals.

We've taken out goldendoodle to WoofBeach for years and we always have the absolute best experience. Liz is the most fantastic groomer and we couldn't be happier with the business.

Robin does great work. Our little Maltese is elderly now and she always has great things to say about her Woofbeach Bay experience.
