I couldn’t resist getting two poodles because they were so adorable! But, as soon as I brought them home, I realized it had been ages since I had a puppy, and I was completely swamped with two!

I couldn’t resist getting two poodles because they were so adorable! But, as soon as I brought them home, I realized it had been ages since I had a puppy, and I was completely swamped with two! That’s when I reached out to Finest City Dog Training. I signed up for a package of private lessons that includes group lessons. Jessica always made time to help me through my moments of panic and frustration with the littermates. With Jessica’s dedication and personalized help, my two poodle boys are trained and brilliant!

We highly recommend Finest City Dog Training! Jessica started working with our Golden Retriever, Ollie, when he was just 3 months old and helped us establish a great foundation with basic commands, leash walking, and good manners. She was wonderful not only with our puppy but with our entire family, making sure everyone knew how to reinforce the training at home. Her group classes are excellent as well—organized, informative, and a great way to help with dog socialization. We recently took our puppy to my daughter's school for "Pet Day" and we received lots of compliments on how well mannered and obedient he was. We are so grateful for her expertise and support!

We highly recommend Finest City Dog Training! Jessica is an outstanding trainer — kind, patient, creative, and communicative. She has helped us with all three of our dogs and is beyond exceptional. Our newest addition came to us anxious and reactive, and Jessica helped us through both training and nutrition to support our dog in becoming the best version of himself. Her tools and knowledge are top-notch, and he is a completely different dog now. We are so lucky to have her in the San Diego area!

Working with Jessica was a really great and helpful experience! As a first-time dog owner with a 7-month-old Labrador Retriever, I really appreciated how patient, knowledgeable, and supportive she was throughout the process. She helped us so much with recall, no jumping, leave it, drop it, walking skills, and more. She explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and practice at home. Her tips were practical, effective, and made a big difference in both my dog’s behavior and my confidence as an owner. I did the private training but I’ll also be partaking in the group classes. I’d highly recommend her to anyone!
