Testimonials
"Teddy absolutely loves his pack walks with Caitlin. Every Tuesday morning he sits eagerly by the door, waiting for pickup. He always comes home happily exhausted and sleeps for the rest of the afternoon. I love knowing he’s getting excellent physical exercise, valuable socialisation with other dogs, and the opportunity to explore new environments and smells. The pack walks are clearly well-structured and enriching, and it’s such a relief knowing Teddy is in safe, professional hands. I couldn’t recommend Reshape K9 highly enough for anyone looking to give their dog both mental and physical stimulation in a fun, controlled setting."

Introducing the Team
Owner/Operator Caitlin
Introducing your passionate and experienced trainer, Caitlin.
Life-time love of animals from living rural as a child, to graduating with a BSc majoring in Zoology in 2017 and entering the Pet industry as a Pet groomer the same year. She established Reshape K9 moving away from grooming and into adventure walks, dog training, and behavioural grooming.
Since the start of Caitlin's career as a groomer she has been trained by groomers in Australia and New Zealand and is also a member of the National Dog Groomers Association. She has had the opportunity to attend various dog grooming seminars within New Zealand. She has worked closely with various animal rescues to rehabilitate and rehome foster dogs while also growing her business.
She is very passionate about dog training competing in both the agility and obedience rings with her dogs Gilly, DD, Boo, and Topaz. She has been a member of multiple dog training clubs, and continues to attend seminars and workshops, including canine first aid, and hopes to continue learning all manner of different training techniques so she can help her clients in all situations.
