Hi, I’m Katrina Gurr (KPA-CTP)

I’m the trainer behind Evolve Dog Training. I use positive reinforcement because it aligns with how I see dogs; as individuals who deserve clarity, compassion, and fairness while they learn.

I’m drawn to training that helps people better understand their dogs, not control them. I care about reducing stress on both ends of the leash and building skills that actually translate to everyday life, not just a training session.

I share my life with three dogs, Koji, Pixel, and Winnie, all with very different personalities. Living with them has shaped how I think about behavior, learning, and progress, and it’s a constant reminder that there’s no single “right” way to train a dog.

Evolve Dog Training reflects how I work: thoughtful, supportive, and rooted in real life.
