We all know our furry friends deserve the best, even while we are away, so bring your pup to Sapphire Canine for a fun-filled vacation of their own! Sapphire Canine is a trustworthy boarding facility that prides themselves on keeping your pet active, healthy, and happy during their stay.

Training

At Sapphire Canine, we understand dogs and what they need in each stage of development. Our training programs are individualized based on the needs of your dog according to breed, temperament and age. We offer dog training programs that range from basic obedience (like sit, stay, lay down, come and good leash manners) to more advanced options, such as agility, tracking or any behavioral issues. We will work with you to find the perfect training program for your dog!

Doggy Day Care

Need to spend the day out? Worried about your pet’s exercise and socialization? Look no further than Sapphire Canine! At the end of our dog daycare, you will pick up a tired, happy and relaxed pup. Our doggy daycare is guaranteed to provide the exercise, stimulation, and companionship your pup needs to stay happy and healthy.

We offer overnight boarding, doggy day care, puppy classes, obedience training, and any behavioral issue based training.

Testimonials

  • “We met Kayla for the 1st time in a few days before our trip. What a wonderful lady! Completely understanding, very flexible - anything we needed she was very accommodating. She even made it a point to console my son whose 12 that she would take good care of his puppy. Our yellow lab Daisy was a runner. The minute she realized she wasn't on a leash she was gone. Kayla had her off the leash the entire time (a week and a half) and in a group,or a pack. Taught her trail skills-Daisy even lost weight while she was in Kaylas care, and looks great! Absolutely no question at all I will be bringing her back!. Kayla's property is large - there's plenty of room to run , big kennels both indoor and outdoor. Lots of play time! She's located just outside Manhattan which is clearly posted on her information. And is just a short drive from downtown Belgrade. I cannot say enough about her! We think shes just plain awesome!!!!!!! Thank you Kayla for taling great care of our fur baby!!”

  • “Kayla came through last minute and put my mind at ease. Hanzo was nervous upon arrival, and she assured me the steps that would be taken to make him comfortable. It looks like he made some new friends today. He is happy and tired, and I would love to have him stay with Kayla again!”

  • "Kayla is great and super knowledgeable. I’ve been doing weekly training with her for the past couple of months and she not only has taught my dog many new skills, she has taught me many things as well. Kayla is very passionate about her job and it shows, The dogs there are all very well taken care of. I trust her with my dogs 100% and will continue to work with her in the future. I highly recommend her to anybody looking for training or boarding!"

    — Dani S.

  • "We had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Kayla at Sapphire Canine! We have a young Bernese Mountain Dog who, despite being naturally friendly, developed a major issue with leash reactivity and barking every time we encountered another dog on our daily walks. It made walking her stressful and embarrassing. Kayla was patient, extremely knowledgeable, and provided us with clear, easy-to-implement strategies. She didn't just tell us what to do; she taught us why our dog was barking and how to manage the environment and redirect her focus. Within just a few sessions, the difference was incredible. Our walks are now calm and enjoyable! If you have a dog with reactivity, obedience, or behavioral issues, I cannot recommend Kayla and Sapphire Canine highly enough. She truly changed our lives and helped us build a much better relationship with our dog. Thank you, Kayla!"

  • "Kayla at Sapphire Canine is amazing! I had a last minute trip come up and she was super accommodating. My dog was not good with other dogs at all - so of course I was a bit worried boarding her. But after daycare and a 2 night stay - totally different dog!! We can now walk by other dogs without barking & lunging. I also love that she sends update pictures/videos. My dog also came home both times and slept almost the entire day, she loves Sapphire Canine! We will definitely be using them again in the future!"

    — Liah V.

  • "Immediately when you arrive, you can tell this is a great place to bring your dog. The property is beautiful and set up to keep your dog safe and give them plenty room to play. Kayla’s own dogs are so well mannered that you can’t have anything but confidence in her ability to care for any dog. We have taken our Charlie there to board for a long weekend a couple of times now and he has had a wonderful time and comes home completely exhausted from all the playing and socializing with the other dogs. Kayla had been wonderful to work with. She is very knowledgeable and quick to give some tips on how to improve behavior issues that come with new puppies. She occasionally sends pictures or videos to share the fun he is having. There is no stress when leaving Charlie with Kayla as we know he is in good hands, well taken care of and loved like one of her own."

    — Sara K.

  • "Kayla is fantastic! She is very knowledge and easy to work with. She worked wonders with our dog and continues to stay in contact and check up on him regularly. She trains your dog, and also trains you along the way! We are definitely going to continue to use her services and would 100% recommend!"

  • "We had the BEST experience boarding our dogs Max and Bruce here. From the start, it telt more like leaving them with family than at a typical boarding facility. The farm setting is absolutely perfect - tons of space to run, explore, and just be dogs. The owner was amazing about sending photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. One thing that really stood out was how knowledgeable Kayla is about dog behavior and training. She worked with Max and Bruce on manners and structure during their stay, and we could honestly see a difference when we picked them up! Both dogs came home happy, calm, and clearly very well cared for. It means so much knowing they weren't just being watched - they were being loved, exercised, and guided in such a positive way. We will absolutely be bringing Max and Bruce back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe, loving, home-style boarding experience where your dogs can learn and thrive!"

  • "Kayla at Sapphire Canine is absolutely incredible! She has a natural gift with dogs and truly cares about their well-being. Her training methods are clear, effective, and tailored to each dog’s personality, making it easy for both pets and owners to succeed. Kayla is patient, professional, and always takes the time to answer questions, which gave me so much confidence in working with my dog. I also used her dog boarding services, and I couldn’t be happier. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for—it was clear she got plenty of love, exercise, and attention. Kayla provides regular updates, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. If you’re looking for a trainer who’s knowledgeable, compassionate, and committed to helping dogs thrive, Sapphire Canine is the perfect choice. Highly recommend!!"
