Testimonials
“The simply the best doggo expert in all of Amsterdam! I love staying with Kai for daycare, walks and overnight sleepovers. I always come home relaxed after all the fun and it means my hoomans can chill after a long day working and have quality time with me! Come and stay with Kai too and we can be dog buddies! Lots of licks and snuggles.”
Cous Cous the Corgi
“Kailin was professional, kind, and fun to talk to while they worked on my bike. They were responsive while setting up a meeting time online, and were kind enough to travel out to where I live! Would most definitely seek their help again!”
Mauriel
"A lifesaver, loves the dogs (and loved back by them), strongly recommend walks and dog care"
Mike
“Great training and also respect the individual scenarios of the dog and their owners. I do like how modular and on top of specific needs all the services offered are built”

Dog Training

  • 1 hour in length (from arrival to departure)

  • Inclusive of a variety of training types, all designed to help your dog succeed in a positive learning environment

  • Flexible Scheduling

Puppy/Dog Training Basics
Training teaches pups and their humans how to listen and understand each other, and teaches pups how to be independent in their day-to-day lives. Basic cues include: sit, down, stay, off, and come.
Clicker and bench training are recommended
For puppiesa and new rescue dogs this training also includes name recognition, collar & harness wearing skills, and some socialization training

Adolescent Review Training
Adolescentb dogs will push your limits, test the boundaries, and 'talk back' but they also love using their brains, playing fun games, and engaging with their humans in positive ways. In this training we created the perfect space for your dog to review the basics as they grow into an adult.

Leash-Walking Training
Learning to walk on a leash is an important skill for dogs to have. This beginner training is accessible to dogs of all ages.

Advanced Walking Skills
In this advanced training we address helping dogs walk nearby while off lead, perfecting distance cues, and techniques for walking in packs, and more.

The Barking Intervention
Dogs have a lot to say and to share with us, though sometimes their barking does more harm than good. This training addresses the natural response dogs have to bark. We teach them about their voice and how to use it (and not use it).

Specialty Training

Training Consultations
These consultations are to help you with specific questions about your dog. We can meet in person, but we can also meet via Zoom.
This is great for folks that are mostly good at working with their own dog, but have more than a few questions, or are stuck on something specifically. Most times, there is little to no 1-1 interaction between your dog and us.

Advanced Training Techniques
Here we work on advanced types of training such as
+ Agility
+ Talking dogs, learning basic language and ability to answer yes/no questions
+ Service tasks and emotional support work (for dogs already in service) for disabled caregivers
Looking for Service Dog Consultations?

Individualized Training
Do you not see the training type you're looking for in our packaged deals? Then opt for Individualized training. Here we assess your needs and the needs and behaviors of your pup and build a plan that meets everyone where they're at. Some examples include
+ Extra socialization and desensitization training
+ Addressing excessive behaviors
+ Learning to climb stairs
+ Walking with a child/teen
+ Riding in a bicycle
+ And more.
