About
Taking care of your pets as if they were my own is not a job, it is what I naturally want to do. During the session, I will explain what I am doing while training and the why behind it. The goal is to give you the tools and knowledge to work with your dog even after I leave. Being able to help other pet owners by passing on information and knowledge to train/control their dogs on their own. The more knowledge about dogs I can pass around, the better this world will be with the interactions we have with them.

My training session with Jen and my 3 labs was awesome! From the minute she walked into the house, she had my dogs' attention. She was patient but firm with her training and explained her actions & the dogs' reactions every step of the way. She taught me and my dogs several commands that we still practice every day. My morning walks have become much more enjoyable for all of us! Thanks again, Candice - and Henry, Marley, & Vivian!

Jen was great! We have a rescue dog who was a bit wild and got overly excited with our kids. She guaranteed improvement after 1 day, I was skeptical but, my dog did show improvement after one session! She taught my husband and I a lot but also included my kids in the training which was great! I highly recommend her!

Even Penelope liked her, and that’s saying a lot!!! No seriously, my dog had a problem I was beginning to believe I was going to have to live with. She was terrified of people and acted viciously. After only two hours with Jen, Penelope is a completely different puppy. I owe it all to Jen. She was so patient and kind. My favorite thing about Jen was her ability to explain to me everything she was doing and why she was doing it. She was happy to equip me with all of her knowledge. I could not be any happier with her work. In short, she’s phenomenal...if you’re looking for a quality dog trainer, look no further. She’s the BEST!

I honestly can’t thank Jen enough, in two days she took my 7 month old shepherd mix from failing a socialization interview at a puppy day care to being off leash at a dog park without a single issue. He even started to listen to simple commands around other dogs which is light years from what I expected. She is an absolute joy to have around and she has a special gift for training dogs.

My husband and I are so thankful to have Jen show us tips on training our two dogs! One of our dogs Diesel has aggressive behavior towards our new dog Copper and Jen has definitely made us feel at ease now! Diesel and Copper are now getting along so much better and well Copper is only 8 weeks and is already sitting and walking on a leash so well! Also Coppers biting behavior has been less, we still have work to do but In no time he will be a very well trained pup! JEN THANK YOU SO MUCH❤️ If anyone needs help or wants their dog trained amazing go to Jen!!!
