We are so glad we had Kat’s help with training our mini Australian Shepherd. She has been amazing and gave us so many good ideas and tools to use with her. Kat was always responsive and reliable. She was also always great with our toddler who always wanted to be involved! Highly recommend Kat to anyone looking for a dog trainer. Thank you, Kat!! 😊

About MadKat Dog Training
As a professional dog trainer with over 15 years of experience, I can say without a doubt, that “I LOVE DOGS!”. I’ve never met a dog that can’t be trained. My goal is to offer positive and effective training programs that will produce results based on YOUR needs. I use positive reinforcement techniques - I do not hit, slap, yell, or use shock or choke collars. I will teach you successful techniques to train your dog to become part of your family “pack.” I offer a FREE 30 minute, in-home evaluation. No obligation! Click on “Contact” above and send me an email and your phone number or call to set up an appointment. I look forward to hearing from you.

We had rescued a 3rd dog and needed lots of help training not only with the puppy stuff but also help with bonding the 3 dogs. In just a few sessions she gave us advice for training all of them on everything from sit and stay to how to keep them entertained during the day so they dont get bored and destructive. I highly recommend madkat dog training if you need help. Katherine is reasonably priced, works with your schedule, comes to you and gives you print outs in case you forget anything she taught you during your session.
We are so thankful for Kat! She taught us so much and helped us understand our dog, Benni, in a whole new way. Kat is not only knowledgeable and kind, but also super reliable and always punctual with her sessions. We couldn’t recommend her more!

Kat is phenomenal! Best of the best! After the first session we had great direction and were able to work with our dogs, after the second session we had fully implemented the training techniques we learned. The dogs have progressed so much and so have we! Kat is thorough and immediately knew what to do and has a clear understanding of a dogs mind. Literally don’t call anyone else- Just call Kat. You won’t be disappointed.

Kat is awesome! She helped us work with our super energetic pitbull puppy Milo and came up with some really creative ways to keep him entertained. She also showed us how to walk him properly and catch the signs before he gets too excited or barking at other dogs and bikes, which used to be a nightmare. Thanks to her, walks are way calmer now, and we feel way more confident handling him. Definitely recommend her if you want a trainer who’s knowledgeable and easy to work with!
