Introduction

Canine Concepts by Kaitlyn offers dog boarding, training, and daycare. I’m a well balanced trainer who uses a wide range of tools and techniques. I work with the owners to find the best solutions and equipment for their individual dog, and then help you implement the appropriate training techniques. I have 10 years professional experience in the field, and go to seminars each year to continue expanding my education. Working with and training dogs is my passion! I believe every dog has the right to the training that’ll make a good dog great! I would love the chance to work with you and your pup!

I cannot recommend Kaitlyn enough! She worked wonders with my two ten-month-old dogs labs, who struggled to follow basic commands before their three-week training. From the moment we met, I could tell she had a genuine connection with animals and an incredible understanding of their behavior. What sets Kaitlyn apart is her personalized approach. She doesn’t overwhelm herself with too many dogs at once, which allows her to give the attention needed for her clients to thrive. Her patience, dedication, and creativity in training made all the difference. When I left my dogs with her, I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. Not only did they return more obedient, but they also seemed so happy and well-adjusted. I couldn’t have trusted anyone more with their care and training. Kaitlyn is the one for you if you’re looking for a skilled, compassionate, and professional dog trainer. She’s truly an animal person and will give your pets the care and expertise they deserve!

My French Bulldog had aggression issues. Kristin worked with him for 2 and a half weeks. We noticed a lot of behavioral accomplishments Kristin made with our dog in such a short timeframe.

Where do I even begin. I have a 9 month old lab that was absolutely crazy! Jumping on people, counter surfing, barking for food, pulling on the leash. I had Kaitlyn take her in for a 3 week board training, and I have received a brand new pup. She listens all the time, waits for her food, never jumps on counters or people. In fact I took her to a restaurant for the first time after picking her up and she did amazing! Not a peep from her, I received complements upon complements on how well behaved she was and I have Kaitlyn to thank.

Details: 6 - 12 months old • Large (41 - 70 lbs) • Board and train at a facility • General obedience training • Leash pulling • House training • Barking • Digging • Biting • Chewing • At the pro’s location

So grateful I found Kaitlyn here on Thumbtack! I recently adopted a one year old "potcake" from the Bahamas who struggles with major separation anxiety and can be apprehensive in new situations. I realized pretty quickly that I was going to need professional assistance in helping my sweet pup build confidence and feel comfortable when I leave the house. I contacted Kaitlyn here on Thumbtack, and I could tell as soon as we spoke that my pup would be in great hands. My pup recently spent two weeks doing a board and train program with Kaitlyn and her team. She learned so much and gained so much confidence in such a relatively short period of time! At pickup Kaitlyn spent a lot of time training me. I feel so much more confident in my ability to keep up with the training as I know she is still only a call or text away. I highly recommend Kaitlyn!
