Safety, trust & environment

I focus on leash manners during every walk to ensure a pleasant and comfortable experience. I can work with dogs on impulse control skills to help reduce pulling through positive reinforcement and force free training methods. If your dog has any triggers I will work to maintain distance and reward when calm to ensure success and keep stress to a minimum for your pup.

Information Jessica C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any conditions or concerns before I meet your dog such as behavior issues or any tendencies to escape so I can best set your dog up for success. Also, let me know if you have any training goals that we can work towards together!

A typical day

I’ll make sure to work on manners as well as make sure your dog has fun! We will focus on enrichment exercises and make sure to work on leash manners while exploring the neighborhood so that both physical and mental needs of your dog are fulfilled. If your dog has any triggers on walks I will focus on using force free methods and counter conditioning to help make your dog more comfortable on their outings.

Pet care experience

Hello! I’m Jess, and I provide specialized walking and drop-in visits across the Catskill, Hudson, and greater Columbia/Greene County area. I don’t just walk dogs; I use every visit as an opportunity to build confidence, improve focus, and reinforce leash manners. My approach is built entirely on modern, science based Positive Reinforcement and LIMA (Least Invasive, Minimally Aversive) principles. I believe in rewarding behaviors we want to see, helping dogs learn safely, without the use of intimidation or aversive tools. I am currently completing dog training and behavior studies through the CATCH Academy curriculum. This ongoing education ensures your dog is in the hands of an informed and committed professional.

Jessica has been a dedicated dog parent since she was young. With her thorough research and knowledge of how to train, care for and raise dogs she is the first person I go to with any questions I have on my pets and the ideal person I’d want to watch them. She’s responsible, organized and caring - always paying attention to her pets physical and emotional state and responding appropriately. For a worry free experience and to have someone you can rely on, I highly recommend Jessica to care for your pet.
