Kim is a wonderful trainer. She has met me with kindness and compassion, helped ease fears and concerns as they arose. She is also someone who continues to grow her own knowledge and adapt to new information, which I find valuable in a trainer. My boy loves when we get to go to her group classes and continue to grow our training and relationship with eachother. I could not express how much I appreciate getting to work with her.

Kim is the best! She is the right combo of a dog lover and strong teacher! We sent our puppy for a 4 week raining. Kim got a high energy pup - no manners- no boundaries. We got a pup that could follow commands , stay in place , found kennel love. She did such great work with Henny. She stayed in constant contact with us with photos , videos and calls. It’s hard to find someone to trust with your fur family but Kim is a champ. Her heart for dogs is endless. Thank Kim for giving us a great pup we can enjoy and love.

I sent my puppy to Kim for a 4-week board and train program and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made for us. I’ve learned so much about my dog through this program, and Kim has been the most incredible trainer one can have. Her love and patience for dogs shows through the amazing connection she builds with them. I’ve truly enjoyed her training approach and how she cares for her clients’ dogs as if they were her own. This made me trust her with my dog for four weeks, and this feeling truly did not disappoint. I can now enjoy the time I spend with my dog all thanks to Kim and the amazing foundation she’s worked so hard to build for my pup and teach me how to maintain. There’s a clear improvement in my dog’s behavior now that he’s home, and because of Kim’s training he has so mush freedom and trust from me that wasn’t there before the program. Whether it’s training sessions or the board and train programs, Kim’s an a very knowledgeable and amazing trainer and I highly recommend her expertise.

Working with Kim is amazing. We started working with our boy Shiro at 5 months old. Within the first 3 sessions he had noticeable improvement and by 5 sessions he had the building blocks of being the good boy he is today. Everyone comments on how well trained our dog is. I would recommend anyone looking basic to more advanced training to work with Kim. She loves what she does and is great at it. My dog will still respond to her voice when he hears her training videos and would get so excited to see her.
