K954 Dog Training

Working with Niketa has been such a blessing! My dog literally loves her. She has such a natural way of understanding and communicating with him. I could tell from our first session that she knew her stuff. She was able to pinpoint the source of my senior dog’s anxious behavior and helped me tremendously with his separation anxiety. We have been working together since 2022, and I can always reach out to her if I need any advice on my dog or if I have any concerns. She never hesitates to help us troubleshoot when we need it!

Wow, what can we say about Niketa and her gift, talent and passion for working with dogs. Our pit bull mix dog yodgi is a very special boy that came to us as a rescue with some behavioral issues and was extremely fearful and insecure. Niketa emanates calming energy that put our dog at ease. He *immediately* bonded with Niketa and since working with her regularly, he has become a more secure, happier dog. In the past something as simple as a pen falling onto the floor would have sent him into a panic; he doesn’t do that anymore. She’s also taught us a lot about dog psychology and how to manage our dog on walks and to understand his behavior. Niketa has also been kind enough to care for our dog when we went out-of-town, which has been amazing because we didn’t think we were going to be able to travel because our dog requires special care. Niketa has been a blessing and we only trust her with our boy Yodgi.

I have known Niketa for over 3 years, training each of my dogs at different times. From my puppies Bundy (English Pointer) and Vader (Bull Mastiff), to my crazy adult Artie (Bull Terrier, need I say more), and my senior citizen girl Cosmo (Boxer). I have been consistently impressed with her skills, knowledge, and dedication to her work. She builds strong relationships with both dogs and their owners. She is an expert in a variety of dog training techniques, we've worked on obedience, agility, behavioral modification with all four of my dogs and she has a deep understanding of canine psychology. Niketa is an excellent instructor, showing both patience and understanding for our situation. She is always willing to work with her us to find the best training solution for my dog's individual needs. She completely understands each of my dog's personalities and learning styles. She is such a talented dog trainer with a passion for her work she loves my dogs as much as I do. She is a dedicated professional who is committed to providing her clients with the highest quality of service. I have no doubt that Niketa would be a valuable asset to anyone looking for a dog trainer because she always goes above and beyond for us.

Niketa is amazing. We have been working with her for a short couple of months on having our golden retriever certified as a service dog. The progress has been so much faster than I would have ever imagined due to Niketa's incredible techniques, patience and command of training. We recently went to Home Depot to test her progress and I was simply astonished at how well she did. We tested her with all kinds of noisy distractions, and putting her in uncomfortable positions, and she remained calm and attentive the entire time. Once you meet Niketa you will quickly she how passionate she is about what she does. She has so much experience and various educational certifications yet continues to challenge herself to learn more. She has a calm demeanor, is incredibly patient with our dog, never getting frustrated and working through all challenges in baby steps. The dog completely trusts Niketa, as do we! We highly recommend K954 for even the most basic of training, you will not be disappointed!
