Certified professional trainer

Pet care experience

I am a certified professional dog trainer (CPDT-KA, SDC) with over five years of professional experience working with pet dogs, service dogs, and fearful and aggressive dogs. I am certified in Canine and Feline First Aid and CPR through Pet Emergency Education and attended a Canine behavior and training academy under the esteemed Pat Miller. I subscribe firmly to force-, fear-, and intimidation-free training methods. I also worked in a pet store for two years and became very accustomed to handling and caring for animals of all species, from birds to fish and reptiles, to small and fuzzy animals. As a pet owner myself, I understand that your pets are your family. I treat each pet under my care like family too, providing them with companionship, high quality care, and enrichment.

Jason did a great job of looking after our two dachshunds while we were on vacation outside the US.. He kept in constant touch with us both verbally and in text and with picture and we returned home to find two happy dogs. We will definitely use him again.

Professional, knowledgable, and communicative. Especially patient with my pup, who is having a hard time adjusting to Boston since we recently moved here.

Jason was so great with Thor! She's a bit of a handful but he not only did great with her, he handled an unexpected case of ants around the food bowl. Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment

I am certified in Canine and Feline First Aid and CPR through Pet Emergency Education. I am very diligent about upholding the training you have been doing with your pet. While on a walk with your pet, I do have certain safety protocols I uphold, such as not allowing on leash greetings with people and other animals and making sure equipment is in good condition and well-fitted. Your pet's safety and wellbeing is my top priority.

Information Jason R. would like to know about your pet

All breeds are welcome. I do request that you are upfront with me about your dog's fears or reactivity so that I can help them have a safe and enjoyable walk.

A typical day

All activities are curtailed to your dog's individual energy level and exercise needs. I provide anything from a leisurely stroll down the block to a long hike through the woods.
