Working with Kate (and Bandit!) gave us some great tips to better understand how to read cues of my "other-dog-reactive" pup, and how to encourage greeting, while still listening and observing when my dog is overwhelmed. Would highly recommend spending time with Kate.

Kate has been a pleasure to work with, and she's helped Winnie get much more comfortable around another dog than a half dozen previous trainers over the years. She has great instincts for understanding what dogs are feeling, and relies on novel applications of proven, positive methods to intervene. And Winnie loves her!

I have known Kate for 10 years. She is the most compassionate, calm, empathetic trainer with a wealth of knowledge. I trust my most complex cases with her from severe aggression to new puppies. I can’t recommend working with her enough.

Russo has an anxiety disorder and is, among other things, afraid of strangers. Kate has been working with us in our home so that Russo is more comfortable with others helping care for him. She is respectful and has a great sense of pacing that has allowed Russo to progress without the blowback that often comes when dogs are pressured rather than assisted to develop organically. Today, after a very successful session yesterday, Russo insisted on looking for her outside the building.

"Kate went above and beyond in helping him become more confident. We did two rounds of Psychos and you could really see the improvement. Totto's anxiety level dropped significantly in the classes, and we learned how to read his signals. We've made such strides -- I cannot say enough good things."

My pup was shaking, crying and panting her first couple days in NYC, refusing to go outside. After training with Kate for the past month, my pup can go on long walks, is friendly and super playful. It's like I have a new dog. If you're looking for amazing dog trainers, look no further!

Kate is a miracle worker. I was skeptical that we could get Ronan's aggression under control, but we developed a plan and I honestly cannot believe the change in his behavior. Kate is a miracle worker. She is patient and able to make the humans good trainers which is just as important as training the dogs.

Kate is an amazing genius when it comes to dogs. I thought as long as I followed a schedule, Zooey would be housebroken in a flash; but then where was all that pee coming from? Kate did an in-home orientation, we attended puppy classes, and I learned how to teach Zooey in a way she understands. Highly recommend.

Sarah S.Highly recommend.

Kate is such a positive and knowledgeable trainer, the whole package. She has been training our new puppy since he was 8.5 weeks old and she knows what she's doing. She always gives EXTREMELY detailed follow-ups to every training session and is always there to answer any questions we have responding

Kate was a tremendous help with our rescue dog, Benny. He had a rough past, and Kate was instrumental in helping us work past some of Benny’s behavioral issues. She helped us build trust, play, and positive reinforcement. All of her recommendations were spot on, helping us create a warm and loving household for Benny. We wouldn’t be where we are today without her help and support. We couldn’t recommend working with Kate enough!
