I run my own dog training business!
Pet care experience
I am a absolute animal lover. Nothing makes me smile more than a happy pet. In fact, I hope to dedicate my life to it by shifting my career. I am a certified canine specialist from the Northwest School of Canine Studies and I recently earned a certification in animal behavior from the University of Washington. That means I am great with cats too! I currently own my own dog training and animal behavior business and live in Ballard with my husband, my cat Leia, and my dog Fondue. I love exploring the neighborhoods and love to be outside and walking with your pup. I do positive reinforcement training, and find that clicker and treats get me the fastest, most reliable results. I also have a huge fondness with cats, and understand how to behave with a cat is shy, scared, playful, or needs to let out the zoomies. I love spending time with kitty clients and work very hard to make sure they are well taken care of and feel safe. I make it my priority that your pet is happy and healthy and to keep you worry free. I will treat your pet as if it were family and send many updates and photos! I do regular 30 minute drop-ins for dogs(includes walk) or cats, and also offer a special training drop-in. If you’re interested in the training drop in, just send a regular-drop in request but specify that you want the special: $27 Training drop-in dog walk: On these walks, I will bring my treat bag and my clicker. I will work with dietary restrictions and always give you a break-down of the treats if I am the one providing them. In these walks I will reinforce the following good behaviors: -Eye contact -Loose leash walking (not pulling) -Appropriate Dog and human greetings -Not jumping on strangers
Reviews
Always on time, always conscientious, my pups are well taken care of!
Jessica is simply the best! She is so caring and thoughtful with our Luna, as well as professional, respectful and prompt. We're so happy to have her help care for Lulu when we can't be there. 😊
Jessica is really great! We love all the photos she sends us and how much the animals love her.
Always on time, always happy puppies!!

Information Jessica K. would like to know about your pet
Before a request is completely booked, I'll ask for a meet and greet. I'd like to know about your dog or cat's personality, what their feeding routine is, what their favorite toys are, if they have any restrictions (indoors or outdoors, types of food, etc.), if they take medication, and where they like to be scratched the most!
A typical day
I am constantly exploring my neighborhood and live very close to Golden Gardens, The Ballard Locks, and the Burke-Gilman Trail.
