I cannot give a high enough review to our trainer. She is knowledgeable, professional, and always patient with our dog. As a rescue he didn’t have formal training until he came to us and in just a few sessions my husband and I are so much more confident with keeping him polite. We know have skills to get him to walk under control on a leash, be calm when guests come to the house, and play gently.

Jennifer is very knowledgeable and friendly. My German Shepard who I thought was aggressive took to her immediately. I learned a lot from her and can’t wait to work with her again.
What a wonderful experience. Jennifer is super friendly and has a lot of knowledge about breeds and their habits and history. She made basic training super easy and doable. And my pup loved her also! I can’t wait to work with her again!

I’m writing this review to share my experience with anyone looking for a great trainer.. My husband and I have a huge St Bernard puppy whom we love very much....however we we not prepared for training a giant breed dog ....we experienced pulling on the leash , jumping and play biting , grabbing clothes ,pant legs LOL..then I found Jen who saved us with her understanding and expert knowledge! She trained with us and took us from being overwhelmed to being empowered and confident ! She brought us together with our pup to a peaceful more fulfilling understanding relationship...I highly recommend her ! Thank you Jen !

Jen is absolutely amazing. We reached out to her to help us with out recently adopted rescue German shepard pup, Evie. Evie spent the first part if her life chained outside with out shelter or access to clean water or food. Before meeting with Jen we were not able to have anyone over to our house bc she would bark constantly at any guests and even nip. Jen helped us realize that her biggest problem was that she was scared and insecure, and that the 1st step was building up her confidence. Literally after our first meeting and doing our 'homework' we saw an immediate change..now people could come into our house comfortably without Evie barking and nipping. It only got better from there. Jen is incredibly knowledgeable and patient- both with the pup and me! I cannot say enough positive things about her and highly reccomend her!
