Virtual Dog Training and Behavior Modification - Nationwide
KK9 East is the virtual training arm of KK9 Dog Training. We provide compassionate training and behavior modification support for dogs and their guardians. Behaviors that are problematic can create stress for everyone in the family. Looking at the whole dog through the LEGS (Learning Environment Genetics Self) model, we create individual behavior plans and provide support to bring about a more peaceful co-existence.
Safety and Predictability
Training and behavior modification strategies can be categorized into safety or predictability. When addressing behavior concerns our training plans include management protocols for safety and predictable training strategies that build trust and consistency.

Kay is AMAZING. We were not prepared for our energetic puppy and she helped train us to manage and cultivate him. Looking forward to our next classes!
- Jeremy SKay is a wonderful teacher - very attentive to both the dogs as well as the dog parents! She explains and demonstrates with each pet the command. Helps to set the right expectation - class time zips so fast.

- Joslyn F🦔 Work One-on-One with Kay Williams - Certified Animal Behaviorist in Westerly, RI
If you're looking for an expert animal behaviorist in Westerly, Washington County, or surrounding areas like New London, Norwich, Warwick, Cranston, Providence, Fall River, Taunton, Brockton, New Bedford, Pawtucket, Kay Williams is available for private virtual sessions.
While many pet parents start their search looking for "someone near me" in Rhode Island, the beauty of a virtual behavioral consultation is that your pet stays in their natural environment—the exact place where anxiety, aggression, or territorial issues usually occur. Working with Kay Williams means you get elite-level expertise without the stress of travel or geographic limits.
Why Choose a Behavioral Consultation?
A general pet trainer focuses on teaching commands like "sit" or "stay." Kay goes deeper, addressing the root causes of complex behaviors rooted in fear, trauma, or separation anxiety. Whether you're in the heart of Westerly or elsewhere in RI, you can access a personalized plan to help your pet feel safe again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be located in Westerly to work with Kay?
No! Because sessions are conducted entirely online, you can book Kay Williams from anywhere in Rhode Island or across the country.
Are virtual sessions as effective as in-person visits?
In many cases, they are more effective. Pets are frequently on their "best behavior" (or shut down) in a clinic or when a stranger enters their home. A virtual session allows Kay to observe your pet’s true behavior via camera in a stress-free setting.
What equipment do I need?
Just a smartphone, tablet, or laptop with a camera and a stable internet connection.
Behind every reactive or anxious pet is an animal that deserves to feel safe—and an owner who deserves to feel hopeful again. Don't wait for the behavior to escalate. Start a conversation with Kay Williams today and take the first step toward a more peaceful home in Westerly.
