Patience,
Love, and Respect
I’ve spent my life working with animals, with a strong focus on dogs and behavior. From volunteering in shelters and rescues to working hands-on with fearful, high-drive, and behaviorally complex dogs. I’ve gained experience with a wide range of temperaments and training needs.
My background in rescue and service dog work gave me the opportunity to see both ends of the spectrum: from dogs struggling with reactivity and stress to highly stable, task-trained working dogs. This experience shaped my balanced, individualized approach to training, focused on clear communication, structure, and helping both dogs and owners succeed together.

Best Options for You and Your Dog
Board & Train
Board and train programs can be a great alternative to private lessons, depending on your dog’s needs. Programs typically run 2–8 weeks, with most lasting 3–4 weeks, and include training tools, a go-home lesson, and a follow-up session.
Private Sessions
Private lessons are the most popular training option I offer. Each session lasts one hour and includes personalized guidance, along with homework to help reinforce your dog’s progress between lessons.
My Philosophy
I specialize in aggression rehabilitation and practical obedience training for dogs of all ages. From puppy manners to behavioral cases, my mission is simple: help dogs stay in loving homes through patience, respect, and clear communication.

"Caitlyn is extremely knowledgable and can handle even the most unruly dogs. She helped me reign in my overly dramatic husky Kimyo and has been an enormous help to me and my furbabies ever since. 13/10"
Joshua Frahlman

Sabrina Kendall
“We love Caitlyn. She has become our weekly routine and we're so grateful for her because she makes our lives better. Pippa the puppy is...a puppy. Adding a puppy to the family is both awesome and stressful, but with each week, Pippa's behavior improves and so does ours. :) Hire Caitlyn now. Your life will be better for it."
