Certified Dog Trainer

Pet care experience

I am an ABC (animal behavior college) Certified dog trainer. While getting certified I worked with the airport security team in Peoria and with the Humane society of Central IL. Then I studied Companion animal psychology, animal behavior, and animal nutrition at U of I for a year before returning to ISU to finish up my degree (Life and marriage have gotten in the way but I am still working on it!) . I have had just over 25 foster dogs of all sizes and temperaments through wishbone canine rescue, I worked as a grooming salon assistant at Petco for 2 years then was promoted to Dog trainer. I am incredibly knowledgeable about Current dog products and nutrition. I left the Petco family because I am due to have a little boy in august and wanted "a summer to myself", but I quickly have gotten bored! I have a house full of animals including a black Lab named Lilith and a German Spitz named Sadie. Lilith is a "spirited' 4 year old who I swear is still a puppy most days and Sadie is almost 9 she was a rescue so we don't know much about her past but She has epilepsy and anemia that does require extra daily care. Plus 3 cats, a rabbit, a leopard gecko, a uromastyx, a hamster, and 30 gallon fish tank (a lot of people think I am crazy but I really enjoy taking care of animals!) Since I am currently not working or enrolled in classes my availability is pretty wide open your best schedule is my best schedule!

Kaitlyn is amazing with dogs! She is trustworthy and caring with all animals. She makes sure not only are they fed and let out but that they are loved, comfortable and relaxed. She understands how your dog feels and gives you a real sense of security that your 4 legged babies are being taken care of by a loving and gentle hand.

Information Kaitlyn C. would like to know about your pet

I am comfortable around all types of dogs and have worked with dogs with behavior problems size and energy level won't deter me. I do have a particular soft spot for Pomeranian's however

A typical day

There are so many great places to walk in the Bloomington Normal Area! I am a big fan of white oak lake, nothing like watching water on sunshiny day! I am comfortable having dogs in my car so going to the dog parks is something I can definitely accommodate if you'd like
