Finest City Dog Training - San Diego

We started working with Jessica before our rambunctious Goldendoodle turned a year old and it has been one of the best decisions we have made. Jessica has been great with Kona and it’s been amazing to see the transformation in his behavior. Jessica has answered questions we have had and offered practical solutions. She has also worked with our daughter's older Goldendoodle who was able to pass the Canine Good Citizen test which has been a goal of hers. We would recommend Finest City Dog Training without hesitation.

Working with Jessica has been the best investment I have made for my dog's wellbeing. She provided us with insight, methods, and tools that saved both me and my dog from unnecessary stress. I am happy I went with the 6-session package because the individual sessions really helped me understand how to work with my dog, and the groups are great for socialization. Jessica is super helpful and super fun. My dog loves her and always get excited for training!

Jessica has been outstanding since we started working with her in March 2024. We began with a 6-session private training package (including group classes), and after seeing great improvements, we upgraded to the 8-session package to pursue our AKC Canine Good Citizen certification. As a first-time dog owner, I had no idea what to expect from dog training - but Jessica gave us all the tools and knowledge we needed. She created a personalized training program that addressed all our specific needs, including managing leash reactivity and safely integrating our dog – a senior German Shepherd – into our cat household. Through her private lessons and group classes, my dog has made incredible progress. Not only did we achieve our CGC certification, but we're now getting ready to start dog therapy volunteering and have more AKC certifications planned for the future. Jessica was fundamental in training our dog, she empowers owners and builds their confidence along the way. She's truly transformed what my dog and I can accomplish together.

We love taking our puppy everywhere with us, and we constantly get compliments on how well-behaved he is. We give credit to Jessica for that! :) She’s personable, knowledgeable, and so helpful. We started working with her shortly after bringing our puppy home because we wanted to do things the right way from the start, especially with kids and a senior dog in the house. We signed up for the 12-session package, and I can't recommend it enough! I’m so glad we did because without Jessica's guidance, our puppy would probably be a handful by now. The 1:1 sessions were incredibly valuable. Each week, my husband and I would have new questions or concerns, and Jessica’s advice helped ensure we were training our puppy properly. We also love her group classes and try to attend as many as we can. Our dog is almost a year old now, and looking back, doing a series of training sessions early on was definitely the best decision we made as dog owners. I am so glad we met Jessica, and I highly recommend working with her!!
