“Kaitlynn and Eli transformed my boarder collie Odin in a remarkable way! He was a very reactive dog to other dogs and now he can handle other dogs with little to no reactivity. I wasn’t sure what they would be able to accomplish with an 11 year old pup, but they exceeded my expectations. I can’t recommend them highly enough.”

“I highly recommend Kaitlynn for training with reactive dogs, she was great to work with!! Ember was highly reactive to other dogs and cars driving by. Throughout training Kaitlyn was able to give me the guidance and tools needed to manage Ember’s reactivity. She helped me to better understand Ember’s reactivity and helped me gain confidence in being able to manage it. You can truly see how much she cares for the dogs she trains, I felt that Ember was always in good hands with her.”

“I have been using Northwood dog training for my 2 year old American Bully for over 8 sessions now and we absolutely love Kaitlyn and Eli! They do a phenomenal job with him, they are patient and knowledgeable and I highly recommend them! Great trainers, very reasonable pricing and we are extremely happy customers. We never thought we would see the day we could walk our big puppy again without him dragging us down the road and in just a few sessions we are not only walking him but he is at our side healing and walking like he should.”

“Natalie did a great job helping our boy become more obedient. We noticed a difference right away. She was attentive, patient, professional and the pup loves her. Hopefully they can spend some more time together soon.”

“I highly reccomend Kaitlynn and Eli at Northwood Dog Training. They’ve been helping my 4 ½ year old rescue, Sonny, with his dog reactivity and leash manners. They’re kind, patient, knowledgable and flexible. Most importantly, Sonny adores them too.

“We had a great experience with Kaitlynn @ Northwood Dog Training. It was so much better having her come to our house for 1 on 1 training than going to group training. Our formerly out of control German Shepherd (Rosa) is now a much better mannered family member!! Not only did Kaitlynn train our dog, she showed us how to keep training Rosa! Thank you Kaitlynn.

“Kaitlynn actively works with Maze to help her learn how to properly socialize with other dogs without becoming too overstimulated. She also has been helping to teach maze how to loose leash walk better. Definitely would recommend!”

“Our experience with our trainer was absolutely fantastic. He was patient and kind, and it was extremely evident that he is passionate about meaningful dog training practices. We learned so much throughout our sessions they helped our puppy accomplish all of the goals we outlined from the beginning.”

“I have a very reactive husky blue heeler mix with probably one of the shortest attention spans ever. Kaitlynn is amazing at keeping him engaged and is always finding new ways to keep him in a good frame of mind for learning. I can actually take him on a walk without feeling like it is a chore because he will cause some sort of scene. I'm so beyond thankful for Kaitlynn and all her work that allows me to be a better dog mom and develop new skills with my dog that we can adapt to any situation.

“Kaitlynn has helped me teach my puppy to walk nice on a leash and behave well when we go to local patios for drinks. I don't know what I would be doing without her help!”

“We are so happy with the results we saw from working with Kaitlynn. She tailored the training to our dog's needs and he loved working with her. We saw a big improvement in his reactivity and walks are much less stressful for us. She also gave us the skills we needed to be able to continue working with him on our own. Highly recommend!”

“It was so beneficial to have Kaitlynn & Eli come to us to work with our new rescue dog, Tillie. We live on a country road that can be fairly busy at times in the summer. Our main request of them was to work with Tillie to teach her our property boundaries & respond to the "come" command. In five sessions of training she is doing great! She no longer bolts when she is outside & responds to us. We would highly recommend Northwood Dog Training to anyone! It was a pleasure working with them.”
