"Our dog spent 2.5 weeks with Katlyn for a board and train session. She came to Katlyn with high anxiety and a chaotic, always on high alert mental state. Katlyn worked with her on many of her triggers and created a calm, trusting state of mind for her. Her organized, consistent training style made for a very structured program that our dog thrived in. Her level of communication has exceeded my expectations and I couldn’t be more thankful to her for helping our dog and our family. Thank you, Katlyn!! " Tim & Lisa D, Byron IL
"We live a house of chaos. Like most families, we have kids screaming and dogs running with us trying to get some quiet. After only a few sessions, our two year old rescue dog has shown so much improvement. Katlyn is wonderful at addressing our house issues and being honest with a solution. She is not just going to teach your dog sit. She's going to give you the skills to have a well-balanced dog. This program is worth every penny. Before I thought I was going to pull my hair out, now, I am able to have harmony within my house. I can not recommend her enough."Micki & Corey V, Freeport IL
"Having our little guy (Dunkin' - 1 year & 3 month old Golden Doodle) back after BB&B's 2 1/2 week board & train is like having a new dog. It's been a true, complete 180!! It's clear that Katlyn knows what she is doing! Her approach and understanding made us feel at ease. Katlyn didn't lie when she wrote (in the greatly written graduate handbook) that she's a call or text away. She told no lies when she noted that the work really starts with us at pick-up. However, now that we are at home, even as his parents, our attitude and outlook has changed. We're more patient and understanding. This learning curve is now appreciative. As one who relies on reviews, I want to share a specific example that just occured today (keeping in mind that Dunkin' completed his training May 12):Dunkin' had a vet visit today. Today's visit was the BEST. The last time we said that was when we took him at just shy of three months old. We did have to stim him but once the vet got down next to him, he stayed there. During his visit, Dunkin': -went right onto the scale-stayed in his down command (he would never stay, especially once the techs/vet came in).-got a FULL exam which also included shots & blood drawn. Dunkin's vet has NEVER been able to exam him. He even stayed down while laying next to the vet. During his shots, he didn't wince nor cry....NOTHING! Vet was all in his business and he let her. Moral of the story: we highly recommend Katlyn and BB&B!"Katie & Jasmine S, Oshkosh WI
"Katlyn has been an absolute joy to work with! Our Golden Retriever, Sunny, spent 2.5 weeks with Katlyn. We sent Sunny to work with Katlyn with the main goals of impulse control, good doggy manners(sit, stay, place, drop it, etc) and also to help our family be on the same page for dog training! Truly, Sunny’s time with Katlyn has surpassed our expectations. Katlyn is an extremely professional, organized, and has a high level of communication! We loved that her program has guidelines but she will also adjust to the needs of the dog and family; it’s very personalized!! The biggest change we have seen in Sunny upon her return- are structured walks. Is unbelievable! Sunny will remain in heel and not loose focus on walks. This has helped us in two ways: 1) she’s now exhausted after walks!! 2) walks are now very enjoyable for our family. The second biggest change we have seen- is now Sunny will go (and stay on!) her dog bed by choice and when directed to. This helps her calm her body and also she has a place to be that is her own. Thank you Katlyn!" Anna & Henry A, Madison WI- "I initially started working with Katlyn in order to get my dog Ace to stop jumping on everyone, since he was so happy to see people. After a couple sessions I learned the tools I needed to keep Ace from jumping whenever he wanted. We then moved on to learning how to get Ace to stop pulling when we went for walks, and while that is still a work in progress, he's shown noticeable improvement in that area as well. I truly appreciate the tools and knowledge that Katlyn has given me to start living a more enjoyable life with Ace. I would definitely recommend her for anyone's dog training needs!" Jakob B, Monroe WI
- "This review is long overdue, but I can't say enough how thankful I am to have met Katlyn. We love the drop-in training option. We have such a busy family calendar, but by completing the sessions at home, Katlyn has been able to witness and work on our dogs' reactive behaviors both in the house and in the yard. Katlyn is incredibly attentive. At the beginning of each session, she takes the time to listen to any concerns I have and will adjust the plan for that day to focus on that concern. Additionally, she is amazing at identifying what works, and when something doesn't, what else to try. This level of personalization in training is more than I could have anticipated. I think the most important thing to point out is that during training Katlyn is helping me be a better owner for my dogs. With each session, she's teaching me. Her passion and dedication for helping both pups and their owners is apparent with every session. Katlyn is a trainer who will go that extra mile to ensure you and your dog(s) can thrive. 5 out of 5 stars!" Michelle J, Pecatonica IL
- "Hi! I have a 8 month old rescue dog from the Green County Humane Society in Monroe. Max has a lot of energy. Katlyn is great. She showed me how to train Max in just a few classes. He has become well behaved. Plus she also trained me. I need more help than Max. All my friends are amazed. Excellent training!" Rhonda M, Monroe WI
- "Me & Aku both got to learn a lot from Katlyn. She was extremely helpful in suggesting different tools and all-around making things easier and a bit more refined. Not to mention simple for the both of us to understand. 10/10 definitely suggest!" Ryan S, Monroe WI
- "I'm so glad that Katlyn was recommended to me when searching for training help. It was so nice to have her come to us and give us advice and the tools we needed to help with training our four little 5lbers. I definitely would highly recommend her!" Julie N, Brodhead WI
- "Katlyn has been great! Everything about our experience was phenomenal! She came to our house and had my dog happily doing recalls within 5 minutes, something I hadn't been able to accomplish before Katlyn. I really wish I had known about her sooner because she has definitely changed our lives for the better! Can't recommend her enough!" Amy B, Pecatonica IL
