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.

Kat is the trainer you need to use. Before meeting her, we were struggling with stubborn behavioral issues, but she instantly provided the clear direction and confidence we needed. We saw positive, tangible results right in our very first session. Kat’s expertise shines through her laser-focused, actionable pointers. Her insights into effective communication—especially regarding timing and subtle dog body language—significantly strengthened our bond. A major benefit was the comprehensive, organized list of recommended gear and high-value rewards she provided. This practical resource was invaluable, saving us hours of research and preventing us from wasting money on ineffective equipment. For anyone seeking a knowledgeable, patient, and effective trainer who sets you up for long-term success, Kat is the absolute best choice.

I had such a wonderful experience working with Kat! She was incredibly kind, patient, and understanding with my 1yr old Maltese. Our main challenges were her loud barking and tugging on walks whenever she saw other dogs. Within just three sessions, Kat helped me learn the proper techniques to walk her with more control and confidence. I’ve already seen such a big difference! She is such a happy girl full of life, but now we both have the skills to continue improving together. I’m so grateful for Kat’s guidance and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and knowledgeable dog trainer! 🐶💛

Excellent trainer. Without hesitation, Kat was able to solve my problem. She showed me how to correct the problem and I have been able to walk my dog with ease.

We had THEE best experience with Kat. EVER. Would give her a million stars if I could. We decided it was time to get our older dog a friend and brought home a puppy and quickly realized we were completely clueless after 11.5 years. Kat stepped in and truly helped us so much. From day one, she was patient, super knowledgeable and honestly a hell of a lot of fun. She taught us how to train Birdie in a positive and effective way that didn’t initially come naturally even after already having a dog. Even for basic commands, Kat gave us smart strategies that actually work. Birdie loves her and we do too! I honestly was hoping she’d adopt us and stay forever. Kat not only trained Birdie but trained us to be better dog parents and even helped me to feel more connected to Birdie and way more in control. We’re super grateful for her guidance and couldn’t recommend her more highly! 🐾 🐾
