Introduction

-board & trains are in-home - boarding is in home Hi I’m Jaila, I have grown up around dogs my whole life,And has become my passion. I always have had a love for teaching them new things along the way it gives me pure joy to see transform. I became a dog trainer because, as an owner of three dogs I know how hectic life can be, having a trained dog is important and just helps make life a lot easier. I have been training for about 5 years now, and in that time I have become a more groomed-balanced trainer. Which help me in using the best methods that work optimally for you and your dogs! I specialize in basic obedience and household behaviors . Covering all things from potty training , crate training , walking on a leash and more! Currently offering in-home board and trains to personally adjust your dog with the lifestyle you want. Also offering Boarding!

My experience with Heart of a Dog was amazing. Zoe was not responding to me in a positive way. Since Zoe received training from Jaila she has been listening and being a puppy who has good manners. I recommend her and I’m very pleased with the results I have received.

Did amazing work with my dog, he wouldn't listen, wouldn't stay on a leash without pulling, and now he's behaving perfectly. Her methods are effective and compared to other training the price was great.

Jaila is incredible. I found Jaila because I had a traumatizing experience with my Boston Terrier at another business. Jaila was so attentive to Kirby’s (my dog) needs and Kirby just seemed really happy with her. I love that she picks up and drops off AND posts pictures and videos of your pet daily. Kirby will be hanging out with Jaila again!

I am so pleased with my experience with Jaila. She has opened my eyes to the RIGHT way in training my pup. My 5 month old puppy, Brody did the 2 week Board & Train and it was perfect while I was away traveling and training him while he is young. Jaila was very professional. Hands down, I will use her again and again...she's part of our family now.

Jaila was so professional! She demonstrated good communication and was very punctual! My dog struggled with household manners(jumping on kitchen counters, etc.) and now she is well behaved. Will definitely use her to train my next puppy as well, because she worked so well with my Golden Retriever.

FAQs

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I offer over the phone or in person consultations, where we’ll discuss all concerns and set up a training start date.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated as a professional dog trainer from Jo-Thor dog training academy
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I own two terriers who used to pull extremely hard on the leash, and I could not figure out how to stop it. So I went to Dog Training school to learn more.
