Dances with Dogs - Certified CCPDT Dog Training - Miami, FL

Katie Casell is a highly skilled, well trained and very experienced dog trainer/owner of Dances with Dogs. Her positive philosophy and excellent organizational skills provide both dog and dog owner with a rewarding and non-threatening learning experience. Katie adapts her lessons to meet the learning styles and individual needs of both the dog and dog owner. Because of Katie’s patient guidance, raising my puppy is now an enjoyable and happy experience for both of us.

Can't say enough great things about our experience with Dances with Dogs. Truly remarkable. Katie, the owner called back the same day we called, and was so professional. Loved the technique that they use with positive force free learning. Our trainer Mia from her team was so knowledgeable and in just the first lessons learned 2 commands right off the start. Now after taking lessons, it's amazing how many commands are now known and how happy the dog is to do each one. Can't say enough great things and so happy to have chosen Dances with Dogs. Thank you. A+++ all the way.

We adopted a little toy poodle with a very sad and traumatic background. She was terrified of everything and wouldn’t stop whimpering at night. We had bought Calming Care, Rescue Remedy for Dogs, Adaptil and more, and nothing seemed to work. We didn’t know what else to do so we looked for a trainer and found Dances for Dogs on Thumbtack. We wrote them a long message with everything we were experiencing with our dog. Katie immediately replied with her phone number and we ended up having a long conversation. We immediately knew we were talking to an expert who had training in animal behavior so we decided to schedule a session. Katie was SO patient with us and with our little anxious dog. She taught us about body language and gave us a lot of helpful ideas and information to make our dog feel more comfortable. We liked Katie so much that we ended purchasing a package. With time, patience, and practice, our dog became more calm, extremely social with other dogs, less anxious around other people, and finally slept through the night. Katie also taught us about basic commands, gave us ideas about puzzle toys and other ways to keep her mind engaged in something else other than her anxiety. Our dog is doing so much better now and we have to thank Katie for a lot of her progress. We totally recommend her!

I am very satisfied with my session of training with Katie from Dances with Dogs. She was the answer to my prayers. She gave me so much valuable info and things to work on with my Maggie. We are already making so much progress in only three days with the very easy to follow guidance she imparted. Maggie loved her right away. That says it all. Thank You!!

I have been using Dances with Dogs for many years and highly recommend them. They walk my dogs while I am away and have great communication with pictures! They are very knowledgeable with dogs and have helped me train my dog. Absolutely no complaints.
