"I highly recommend Kayla. She is amazing! My Sheepadoodle spent a week with Kayla and the difference is unbelievable!! He is now a calm, easy to walk, obedient puppy. Kayla is so easy to work with and really takes the time to explain her training process. She listens to your needs and concerns and works with you to get the desired results. Her follow up is also great! I can’t recommend her enough!" - Kathy Parker, RVA

"We have had an incredible experience with Kayla! She is communicative, empathetic (to both humans and dogs), and responsive in her approaches. She really listens so that she can effectively troubleshoot and makes it feel like we are a team. Her methods have been super-effective with our adolescent lab. He loves her. We love her. We cannot sing her praises highly enough!" - Rebecca O'Dell, RVA

"Kayla was the ONLY trainer to help my stubborn Frenchie’s leash reactivity. I’d went to about 4 trainers before her and I was starting to think my dog was just un-fixable. After 5 training sessions with Kayla, I no longer have anxiety walking my dog. She is compassionate, not judgmental, and very professional! If you’ve been feeling like there’s no hope for your dog’s reactivity, I 1000% recommend Kayla." - Emily Hernandez, RVA

"Highly recommend Kayla! I have a 7 month old Rottie and signed up for the Basic Obedience Private Package which was worth every penny! We noticed a difference after the first class with Kayla. She truly loves what she does and is great at it! I can now walk Oshie for miles in a perfect “heel” position. Her recall is nearly perfect. Given she will be a large dog, I wanted to be sure I was able to walk her while she responded to commands such as sit, down, and heel. We also love to go on hikes and with her responding to “Come” even with distractions makes the hikes that much more fun! Thank you, Kayla !" - Sarah McCusker, RVA

"Kayla is the best investment I ever made. I have a labradoodle that I got when he was 3 months old. I knew the breed was very active and that I would have to get professional training at some point in his development. I did a lot of research to try to find the best trainer for my active boy. Kayla is so precise and kept me in the loop through his entire training with daily videos and emails that were very detailed of his progress. I felt like I was there and experiencing his progress with Kayla. I cannot say enough about how excellent she is. I cannot express enough that if you have a dog that needs training, Kayla is worth all the money and more. It is fantastic to go for a walk with my boy, as he does not stop to bark at other dogs, cars, or people. Best money I ever spent. Amen!" - Linda Kravitz, PA
