I recently sent my 4 month old puppy Pippi to Katrina . Naturally I was nervous. Katrina made me feel at ease and gave me updates regularly . Let me tell you best thing I ever did was to send Pippi to her 1 month board and train . Pippi now has a basic foundation for all her commands and leash training . Also with the 1 month board and train their is a free skills and still 6 week course to continue to enforce and expand on all Pippi learned while with Katrina . Katrina also goes over everything with you in detail once the training is complete . I received Pippi back healthy and happy and best of all with good puppy manners and knowing her commands. Katrina you can tell is fully invested in the best outcome for your pup. A good combination of stern but loving . Best thing I did was find Katrina training center and I plan on continuing to build on all the training and enroll Pippi in her agility classes . Thank you Katrina for everything ❤️.

I signed my 6.5 year old Pomsky up for Katrina’s agility classes so she can get more exercise outside of daily walks and so that I can bond with her a little more outside of forced couch cuddles. Katrina’s classes taught my dog new skills and burned out a lot of her energy more than a 1 hour walk or hike would. It also showed me that she had more energy than I thought and that she’s capable of WAY more. Within a few classes she was jumping through tires, running through tunnels, and climbing up dog walks. Katrina is not only very knowledgeable about agility tactics but very patient with all the dogs and very funny! We’re excited to continue classes with her next year.

Your search ends here! Although our spunky lab was only a few months old when reached out to Katrina, everything we and he learned still impacts our daily life. We recently went camping out of state, with our two children (toddler and infant) and our dog did AMAZING. Not only did he follow what he learned, but we 100% followed Katrina's lead and advice. We were aware of other dogs and situations and ensured that we set him up for success in a new environment. He received so many compliments on his amazing behavior. This was not the first time this has happened, and we are confident that it won't be the last. Even though it has been 6 six years since he was a "puppy," what you taught all of us is integral to his success and comfort, as well as our confidence and our handling of him in all situations, even with our young children. He did AMAZING and it’s all Katrina's credit. If we ever were to get another puppy we joke the day we bring him home we want Katrina there to start us off on the right foot. THANK YOU KATRINA.

The combination of training and boarding was exactly what we needed for our puppy. Not only is our time with our Shuggie more enjoyable but we have been given the skills and tools to last a lifetime. Katrina’s knowledge, patience and flexibility made this process so much better than we ever anticipated. The way she was able to read our pups personality from the start is a true talent. Shuggie is her biggest fan and we love the peace of mind knowing she is always in good hands!
