About Kim
I have been working with animals and have been around all types of animals my entire life, but have really been working specifically with dogs since 2016. My experience comes from working with dogs hands-on-- by running and owning a pet sitting company and walking dogs for many years.

Kim was wonderful! She is very knowledgeable, went over and above to do research when required to resolve any issues and give us counsel and recommend products to assist in the training. She also made herself available when needed and offered to assist us in the future, expressing a willingness to work with us again if we found that necessary. She was also prompt, reliable, considerate and attentive with a firm but calming disposition. I also found her fee to be very reasonable. I would use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a trainer. More...

I adopted a 1 year old mixed breed and needed a dog trainer to help transition him into my life but wasn't sure exactly what he should learn. Kim did a fantastic job of training him on relevant behaviors, teaching me the why's/how's, and instilling confidence in both of us to make community outings a real thing. It's evident that she truly cares for the dogs and puts their wellbeing and needs first in each session. More...

Kim is a great trainer she has done a great job with our dog. Kim tailors her training techniques to fit the dog’s personality she is very attentive to the dog’s needs. Working with us, she is a patient teacher who demonstrates the training skills needed and ensures that we practice them before she finishes her training session. I can honestly say that our dog’s behavior has changed for the better in a dramatic fashion over a short period of time. I highly recommend Kim for any dog training. I’m confident that anyone tries K-9 Services will be highly satisfied, Kim will exceeded your expectations! More...

We have been working with Kim at 1 Refined K9 Dog Training for a few weeks now and she is amazing. We have 3 corgis and they are definitely better behaved with Kim’s help.

What do you love most about your job?
I love working with dogs and helping people understand how to communicate with them.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have owned a pet sitting, dog walking company for 8 years. I found myself dealing with uncontrollable dogs on almost a daily bases. I really enjoy helping people and teaching one on one with them to teach obedience commands and have a more structured life with their dog.
Why should our clients choose you?
I’m very compassionate about my job and really love dogs and all animals. They bring so much joy to our lives. I will help you understand your dog and how to communicate with them. In addition, I have studied Animal Behavior at Canine Behavior Academy Classes Studied: Foundation - Instincts, Emotions and Body Language.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I do not at this time. In the future I will certainly consider it. I prefer seeing, touching the dog and working with the dog and customer together.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
At this time if the customer would like me to wear a mask I certainly will.
