Delaney with Off Leash K9 is fabulous! My seven-month-old puppy, Oakli, completed the two-week intensive training program, and the care, communication, and results were outstanding. I felt completely confident that he was in great hands and received excellent training, attention, and love. The two-hour review and demonstration at pickup were incredibly helpful and gave me the confidence to continue reinforcing everything Oakli learned. Delaney went above and beyond throughout the entire process, even keeping Oakli a few extra days when… Read more

The two-hour review and demonstration at pickup were incredibly helpful and gave me the confidence to continue reinforcing everything Oakli learned. Delaney went above and beyond throughout the entire process, even keeping Oakli a few extra days when needed and ensuring he was well cared for every step of the way.
I am beyond pleased with the experience and excited to put all the tips, training tools, and videos to great use. Thank you, Delaney, for helping Oakli become the best version of himself! I highly recommend Delaney and Off Leash K9 to anyone looking for exceptional training and care for their dog. Read less

I had an amazing experience with Off Leash K9 Training Asheville for my puppy girl. When we started, she was extremely reactive to her surroundings, and her mental health was very important to us throughout the process. From the beginning, Tara her trainer was absolutely amazing with her—patient, understanding, and truly attentive to her needs. The communication was top notch and constant throughout her training, which gave us so much peace of mind. After completing her training, my puppy has… Read more

The communication was top notch and constant throughout her training, which gave us so much peace of mind. After completing her training, my puppy has changed so positively. She’s calmer, more confident, and able to handle situations that once overwhelmed her. We are beyond grateful for the care, professionalism, and results we received, and I would highly recommend Off Leash K9 Training Asheville to anyone looking for real, compassionate training for their dog.

Our Pup Bodie is an 11 month old mini Aussie who just completed a 2 week board and train with Off Leash K9 Asheville trainer Kaitlyn E .
We were so anxious about leaving him for 2 weeks but Kaitlyn put us at ease right away with her communication, videos, pictures and texts that we received daily from her! Included with each video there was always a detailed comment explaining what she was doing with Bodie for that day and we could see his steady progress each day!
We were impressed with her consistent gentle but firm teaching that she was doing with him!
There were also many pictures of Bodie being integrated into their family, him on the couch with her cats, playing in the snow with her 2 pups and his training buddy etc etc! Which really helped to reassure us that he was also having fun while he was learning!
Bodie was with Kaitlyn during both the ice storm and the 7 inches of snow! We were so worried about his safety, loss of power, water, how she would continue training during these conditions etc etc! Kaitlyn again gently eased our minds with multiple texts about their preparations and readiness for the storms and how the training would seamlessly continue!! She also offered to keep Bodie for 2-3 days after the last storm without charging us until she could safely make it up to Asheville to bring him home!
She did the turnover with us (one day later than the planned 2 weeks ) at Lowe’s where she spent 3 hours with us demonstrating what Bodie has learned and instructing us on how to continue with his training at home! Honestly we cannot believe the difference in Bodie! She was an amazing and patient teacher with us and making it easy for us to consistently follow through with everything home!!
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Kaitlyn! This is obviously not just a job for her she goes over and above and is truly a dog whisperer and we can highly recommend her!
Bodie continues to do awesome at home! We are so thankful that Bodie was paired with her! Read less

Delaney was AMAZING! She took on two of my blue heeler, litter mate puppies and completely transformed them. They are listing and obeying commands and I feel confident that they will continue to learn. Especially since we have her support throughout this journey. I would highly recommend her and I will be utilizing her for all of our continued training.

We inherited a highly intelligent, herding dog, who is quite capable of thinking for herself. Through Kaitlin’s patient guidance and instruction (for both the dog and us), we learned how to appreciate and understand how to work with this amazing animal, who thankfully, has learning in her DNA. We’ve even been able to get her to pretty much stop going for the cat, as she would normally do instinctively as she would any animal that might go for the herd.… Read more
