My experience with Clean Loop Canine has been incredible! I have an 8 month field golden retriever and had no idea how to handle her unrelenting energy and challenging behaviors. I felt I was failing as a dog parent.
From the first consult call and in-person strategy session, Kirsten was kind, extremely knowledgeable, and confident in my dog’s ability to thrive. I love how she views behavior - nothing is good or bad, just learned responses and differences in communication.
The Canine Partnership is the way to go. Kirsten has a foundation of skills and manners she teaches and then addressed all my other concerns on top of that. Communication during the board and train was excellent - I received regular video updates on progress and messages giving more details and answering my many questions. I was honestly worried my dog would hate leaving because she was having such a good time.
When it was time to come home, Kirsten sent comprehensive notes and instructions beforehand, and went over them in detail while training me on how to best implement everything. Her training focused on my dog’s biological strengths and how to harness those skills, which made the plan much easier to understand. Kirsten has continued to check in frequently and provided additional feedback, answered questions, and praised my dog’s abilities, encouraging me to trust in what she’s capable of.
Kirsten has changed our lives and I cannot recommend her services enough. I have a sense of peace I haven’t felt in six months and my dog is happier and healthier because of this experience. Call Clean Loop Canine today - you won’t regret it!

We got a new puppy, and the experience was overwhelming. The accidents in the house, biting, whining, jumping, and high energy levels were more than we had anticipated. Kirsten was amazing! She is a professional, devoted, and confident dog lover who was genuinely committed to our dog. During the boarding
period, she provided regular updates and videos that highlighted our dog’s progress. It was wonderful to see our dog become calmer and more obedient. When our dog returned home, Kirsten made the transition smooth and was available to address any questions or concerns we had. We were so surprised by how much our dog relaxed! Kirsten exceeded our expectations, and I highly recommend her services. The investment
was absolutely worthwhile!

I was originally looking for a a quick boarding need. And came to find that Kirsten is a devoted dog behavior specialist and provides quality training. Which fits perfectly with my needs as I have a very excited Australian Shepherd. I am looking forward to the progress we can make with him. As I already can tell he will be in good hands. She is communicative and just meant to love/handle doggos.
