Certified Professional Dog Trainer

Pet care experience

My love for animals has been a defining characteristic my whole life. I've been around dogs my whole life and have been caring for them professionally for 5 years. I have worked at a dog boarding facility where I handled, walked, played with, and bathed dogs of all sizes. I have volunteered at both a vet clinic and animal shelter where I picked up some basic pet first aid knowledge. I worked at an animal shelter where I engaged with dogs and cats with various behavior issues so I know dog and cat body language very well. I am also a Certified Professional Dog Trainer and would love to give your pets a great quality of life while you are away! I practice fear free dog training, so you can rest easy knowing your pets are receiving plenty of love and treats.

As much as she cares about people, she cares about animals even more! Jess is responsible, dependable, and an expert in all things pets. She works with animals on a daily basis and grew up with several dogs and cats in her home. Put your pet in great hands and I'm sure both you and your pet will be very thankful.

I will use a leash and harness for walking your dogs to help them be the most comfortable. In my home, I have a spare bedroom that can be their space, as well as multiple levels and baby gates in case our animals need to be separated. We also have a fenced in yard and a playful mid sized dog who would have to do a meet and greet with your dog before boarding.

Information Jess S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any behavior issues or allergies. I love walking dogs and watching cats, and since I am a professional trainer as well we can even work it out that I help train your dog while I watch them.

A typical day

I love enrichment for animals. This means I will be giving your pets lots of physical exercise, but I also recognize the importance of mental stimulation. I love to incorporate sniffing games for dogs, as well as puzzle feeders for dogs AND cats. I will also work on some basic training with them.
