The old phrase "a teacher is born not made" is how best to describe Trena Teachers need to know their subject matter well; Trena is truly a dog whisperer. She understands the foibles of different breeds and also their strengths. Our dog was incredibly stubborn and after a year and 3 month of potty training was still insisting on defecating indoors. He also didn't respond to basic commands and we were unable to take him off-leash. This was after a year and 3 months of food-based training. Trena is an astute dog psychologist and unlike other trainers works without using treats or bribes. She was able to get our dog to immediately trust her and learn basic commands and to finally get 100% potty trained. Our dog absolutely loves her. Trena truly has the gift for training dogs and I am happy to highly recommend her with no reservations.

I was very fortunate to have found her on Thumbtack! She has been such a huge help in training my new puppy and helping me with my clients' dogs as well. I highly recommend her to any one looking for training and walks, as well as overnight care. Thank you Trina!!! Our dogs love you and so do I!!!!

Trena was great. I had a very hyper active, non-responsive dog and she was able to help me calm him and now he walks on a leash amazing, do not even need him on leash if I do not have to. He is not destroying my house and listens to everything I say now. She took her time to really teach me. Definitely worth it! Her non-traditional way of training really helps you understand your dog.

we were at our wits end with our puppy. 24 Training provided not only training for our puppy but gave us insight as to why the dog responded the way she did. one Saturday our trainer came over on her own time to help out with a misbehaved dog. She has my vote!

I would recommend Trena to train your dog. She helped us with are 8 month old lab. There’s great improvement walking on a leash. Teaching commands with emphasis on interaction with people. Also understanding dog behavior by instructing us on dogs boredom and how to stimulate his mind.

FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

  I try to best fit my clients budget as much as I can. I do offer packages and individual pricing. However, I do also adjust to best fit my clients needs.

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  When a client hires me, I make sure they feel like they are part of our family. I make sure I am always there for them, take care of their pet like they were my own, my clients can call me day or night and I am always checking in with them, to see how their pet is doing, how the training is going and how can I help in any way. I also will go to any pet supply house and pick up any food or other supplies for their pet. I want my clients to know they can count on me no matter what. My personal connections with my clients and their pet is what makes my job the best job ever!

• What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

  I have studied dogs and their behavior almost my entire life. They are fascinating creatures. I have been mentored by the most renowned trainers and have learned unique qualities along the way. Dogs are highly intelligent, more than we can imagine. Working with such amazing animals is such a dream come true!
