Over the years, I've honed my skills to include a wide array of training methods and tools, such as clickers, harnesses, and more, to cater to dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Whether you're looking to enhance dog obedience, engage in agility training, or modify pet behavior, my comprehensive, reward-based approach ensures your furry friend thrives.

Kasey with Get Sit Done Dogs came into my life at the perfect time. I adopted a special needs puppy and had no idea where to even begin with training. Her gentle guidance and expertise helped me learn how to communicate with my dog and realize he can do anything an able-bodied dog can despite being both deaf and blind. Kasey gave me support when things were hard and confidence when I wasn’t sure what to do next. If you want a kind, compassionate human with years of experience under her belt to help you form a lasting bond with your dog, Kasey is your girl.

- Maggie S

Kasey is the best! I’m so glad I found her, she’s so patient, kind, loving and knowledgeable in dog training. My pup has some behavior issues and can be reactive, and I really like her gentle and positive approach in training. Can wait to see how my dog progresses while working with her.

- Kyla W

We have a 9 month old puppy and thought we had missed the window for training. But then we found Kasey and she is a miracle worker. After just one session our puppy made such great progress. She gave us so many tips and tricks to help us train him and enjoy spending time with him, instead of feeling like he was out of control all of the time. She had different ways of approaching his behavior and tailored it specifically for what we were struggling with. Thank you Kasey!

- Lisa L

Kasey is exceptional. She gets to know the whole family dynamic and teach us how to work with our dog(s). She gave us several pieces of information that just completely changed the dynamic with the leash walking and training overall. 10/10 recommendations her!

- Gabrielle M

Kasey at Get Sit Done is absolutely incredible! She’s not just caring and dependable...she’s become part of my family. From the very first day, her warmth, dedication, and genuine love for what she does have been so clear. She goes above and beyond in every way, and my dog Murphy absolutely adores her! It’s easy to see why, she treats him like her own and always makes sure he’s happy and loved. I’m so thankful for Kasey.

Recommended Certifications for Dog Trainers


When choosing a dog trainer, professional certifications are a strong indicator of expertise, experience, and commitment to ethical, science-based methods. Widely recognized credentials include the CPDT-KA or CPDT-KSA from the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers, which demonstrate mastery of modern training techniques, canine behavior, and learning theory. The KPA-CTP (Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner) highlights trainers skilled in positive reinforcement and clicker training, while the IAABC Certified Dog Trainer credential, recognized internationally, signals advanced knowledge in behavior modification and problem-solving. Membership or certification through the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT) further reflects ongoing education and adherence to ethical standards. Many trainers also pursue specialty certifications in areas such as aggression management, behavior modification, or puppy development to address specific challenges.


For pet parents, choosing a certified trainer like Kasey Dugan , ensures that your dog’s training is grounded in science, safety, and compassion. Asking about a trainer’s credentials is one of the best ways to make a confident, informed choice.
