Dog Training
Kacia is phenomenal She is a gentle soul that that my dog sensed immediately. Her training techniques are beyond reproach.
Kacia had my dog live with her for 3 weeks, and would send video clippings of my dog’s
new and improved behaviors! I would highly recommend without hesitation Kacia.
She is flexible with scheduling, and will work with your dog at your home. I am eternally grateful to Kacia for returning a well behaved minibernadoodle

Dog Training
Kacia was fantastic with my new puppy. She took the time to learn his habits and showed us different methods to correct his behaviors. If he wasn’t responsive to one way, she found a new one. The best thing he took away was getting over his anxiety of being around other dogs and fear of loud noises. He’s now able to confidently play and socialize with other dogs. It was a pleasure working with her! More...

Dog Training
We highly recommend Gentle Paws. Kacia has been absolutely awesome helping train our puppy. She even follows up to ask how things are going on non training days. Kacia is very knowledgeable and patient. She’s also been very flexible with our schedule. If you need a dog trainer look no further. More...

Kacia was wonderful! She did such an amazing job at training my dog. I've honestly never trusted anyone else with my dog, but I took the risk and Kacia's mannerisms made me trust her at first sight. She's the best trainer I've ever met, and I appreciate all of her hard work so much. More...

Additionally, being able to make a positive impact on the lives of dogs and their families is fulfilling work.
