Customer ReviewsforCATCH Canine Trainers Academy

I cant speak highly enough of this school, the staff and the curriculum. I needed a career change during ***** and had been contemplating dog training for a while. The staff got back to me quickly and explained all the options I had. ***** and ******* are amazing program directors; always responding to emails and concerns I had on the material. The curriculum covers everything from the science behind training to how to lead classes. Friendly and unformative staff. They even offer pet CPR certification. The program is force free, which is amazing for those of us that can't imagine hurting dogs to get them to behave. The school also offers practical knowledge on how to get a job and accommodates you if you have a busy schedule or are going through financial strain. Highly recommend.

I recently graduated from CATCH's Master Program. It was very thorough and I learned a lot. I appreciated that it was "work at your own pace" and I sure did that! My Program Director, **** was a great support and a cheerleader when I needed it! Even when she wasn't available, there was always someone there to answer questions. I was also assigned a local mentor who was fantastic! She was so encouraging and knowledgeable and gave me great feedback on my training and how I present.

Catch is an amazing school with the most understanding and compassionate program directors. I had the best experience! Even though I struggled through going to school while working a full time job and taking care of my 3 year old, ****** always encouraged me to keep going!!! I will always recommend them to anyone wanting to join the dog training force.

I aboslutely LOVED my experience with CATCH. I recently graduated from their Master Course with a Mentor and feel like it gave me a great foundation of knowledge to continue my work in supporting dogs and their humans. My program director, *****, was truly amazing and helped with any questions I had. ***** and the other program directors always responded promptly to any questions or concerns throughout the program. I did have some difficulty scheudling my skills evaluations due to some technical issues, but ***** was positive and quick to help sort them out! My local mentor was wonderful! I observed her Basic Obedience class and was able to ask questions after each class. She also allowed me to observe one of her puppy kindergarten classes, which was an amazing (and adorable) experience where I was able to learn first hand how to handle a class like that!Overall, I feel like the program prepared me to continue on in my career and continue to work towards new and more advanced certifications. I will alwasy have a solid foundation of knowledge thanks to CATCH!

This is a great training academy. Very informative and the staff is very very helpful and friendly. I will give 10 Stars if I could. I highly recommend this academy.

I loved everything about this program! The curriculum is wonderfully thorough, and the mentors and staff are nothing but supportive and helpful. It took me a long time to get through the Master Class (the 10 phase program is self-paced), but I never felt like I was pushed in any way, or behind where I should be. Every student is treated like theyre the only student, which is an amazing feeling. I feel confident and prepared to begin my career as a certified professional dog trainer with all the knowledge Ive gained through the program, but especially knowing that I continue to have this team of CATCH mentors and staff behind me, supporting me any time I need it going forward! If youre contemplating a career as a professional dog trainer, I highly recommend CATCH!

After careful research, I found CATCH Canine Trainers Academy, I reached out via email and received a response within a few hours. Every question I had was answered & at the end of each call/email, I grew more and more confident about investing in CATCH! The cost to enroll was affordable; I set my own schedule and deadlines; but most importantly, the core beliefs of CATCH were exactly in line with my beliefs. I knew that if I wanted to become a great Certified Dog Trainer then enrolling in CATCH's Master Class was how it was going to happen. The Master Class is very well implemented, making it easy to follow. I know what to expect from the beginning of each phase and I know what is expected of me. I've had such great support, experiences & encouragement from *******, my Program Director. I genuinely look forward to the weekly calls to go through what Im working on, & to entertain her with the stories of the pups in my life. I greatly appreciate that I can email ******* anytime with questions or simply share thoughts, ***************** of my experiences. I always receive a thoughtful response to each email I send. As we learn in class, reinforcement is very powerful and the right reinforcement at the right time ensures a behavior will happen again. So each day, with the positive feedback and support I receive, I gladly open up my study guide to get closer to the finish line. I am motivated by ******* & the CATCH team to participate in *********************** In fact, I won a photo contest in December when I submitted a picture of my 3 dogs. CATCH made a generous donation in my name to a rescue of my choice. It really made me feel like I was part of a community, the best kind of community, where no one minds talking about dogs all the time, in fact, they encourage it! If youre considering enrolling ** a class, do your research, I encourage you, but I can promise you, you will not be disappointed with CATCH!
