• "I cannot recommend Kaitlin with Dynamic K9 enough! She has been working with our Greater Swiss Mountain Dog puppy, Hendricks, for the past 6 months now through personalized in-home sessions and her Intro to GRC class. Kaitlin has been incredible every step along the way. From the first day we met her my husband and I immediately felt comfortable and Hendricks adored her. We love how she incorporates fun and positivity into all her training practice and really helps you build a stronger relationship with your pup. Each session perfectly builds on the past one and the flexibility in training times and location options were just what our family and Hendricks needed. Her written summaries of each session were extremely helpful to continue the training in between meet-ups. Additionally, Kaitlin is fantastic with her communication and she is always willing to lend a helping hand or suggestion if something is not progressing as expected. Since starting with Dynamic K9 Hendricks has made tremendous strides and we can’t wait to see what he accomplishes next with Kaitlin’s ongoing training."

  • “We’ve been working with Kaitlin for many years now in a group setting but started with 1-on-1s because our dog is dog-reactive, timid, and scared of many things. The 1-on-1 training was a game changer and helped both our dog and us as her people to have more confidence in handling new situations, and set us up for success so we could join group training classes without hesitation. I really appreciate Kaitlin’s personable style of training and experience working with sensitive dogs. Our pup has also boarded with Kaitlin many times and she has such a good time while also continuing to learn and train in different places, and I’m always comfortable in leaving her with Kaitlin for extended periods of time"

  • "I highly recommend The Dynamic K9 for training. Kaitlin is patient, observant, friendly, and knowledgeable. I adopted a puppy last year from a dog rescue. I knew that a border collie mix would be intelligent and energetic. I didn't anticipate that an abandoned puppy could have such strong reactions to various environments. My gal Maggie and I have greatly benefited from group and individualized training by Kaitlin. Kaitlin easily recognizes the initial signs of Maggie's anxiousness and teaches me how to do the same. As Maggie and I continue to implement what we've learned from Kaitlin, Maggie is becoming more brave. She can tolerate the presence of new objects in her home, yard, and community and is more confident in exploring her surroundings. Additionally, she can finally settle and tolerate being petted for longer periods. We've learned to balance play and exercise with times of relaxation and settling. Kaitlin is a dynamic trainer with vast experience that you too can benefit from with your K9."

  • “Kaitlin is a wonderful trainer to work with. I had tried many other trainers and none were able to help me as much as she did with my very reactive dog. She has a great understanding of dog behavior and is also able to teach me how to better understand my dog. Learning to play with him in a way that he gets joy from has been super rewarding. Can’t wait to continue with more classes.”

  • "Cannot recommend Kaitlin more! Our adopted dog came to us with leash reactivity and had not been socialized with other dogs. The sessions we’ve done with Kaitlin are always very structured, well explained, and we are left with thorough notes as well so we can can remember what we did in each session and know what things we can work on with him at home. It genuinely seems like Kaitlin loves our dog and wants him to improve and live his best life as much as we do. Our dog also loves her as well. 10/10!"

  • "Hire this woman ASAP. She’s great! Our rescue pup had some fears that we weren’t sure how to handle. Fears we didn’t quite understand. Within 5 minutes Kaitlin had already made progress with her. Simple exercises that were easy for us to practice. She is calm and kind with dogs, which is important to us. Our dog is now confident and eager to learn more. I can’t recommend her enough. We are so grateful to her."

  • "Kaitlin is a fantastic trainer who has helped with our very shy and anxious dog to build confidence in obedience as well as Nosework. Her classes are structured so that each dog gets the practice and support tailored to their needs. I always get so much from her classes!"
