Meet Jenna

Growing up with a variety of animals, it's no surprise that both my sister and I have careers in the animal industry.

 

But it wasn't until I adopted my dog Mattie, and had extreme buyer's remorse that I discovered professional in-home dog trainers. 

I was so grateful for the help, and in that moment, I knew: I wanted to be the person who steps in for other overwhelmed, guilty dog owners feeling exactly like I did.

Since earning my certification in 2004, I've been lucky enough to learn from incredible trainers (sometimes for the challenge, sometimes for the joy) and work with amazing dogs who've tested me and brought endless happiness

It would be my absolute pleasure to help you and your furmily find that same peace and contentment.
​

At Jenna The Dog Trainer, we specialize in separation anxiety with training fully customized to your dog's needs. Jenna's been right where you are — feeling like a prisoner in your own home, unable to leave your pup alone. But you don't have to struggle anymore. Let's stop the whining, destruction, and stress... So you can finally Leave Fido Home Alone with total peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sets us apart from other dog trainers?

With over 20 years in dog training, I have successfully helped dogs of all breeds overcome a range of behavioral challenges. I use positive reinforcement to build trust and create a safe, supportive space for your pup to thrive. By truly understanding canine behavior, I customize our approach to fit your dog's personality and your family's lifestyle—ensuring lasting results. Sound like what you've been looking for? Chat with Jenna and see how I can help.

How do dog training sessions work?

Sessions are flexible (evenings, weekends, lunchtimes—whatever fits your life) and fully customized using positive reinforcement. I focus on building trust in a stress-free environment so you and your pup enjoy every session. We typically start with a free 20-minute call to see if we’re a good fit. Ready to get started? Chat with Jenna at a time that works for you.

When should I start training my four legged furmily member?

Great question! Your dog or puppy begins learning what is and isn't okay the moment you bring them home. That means they're learning what you don’t want along with what you do want. The best way to prevent unwanted behaviors is to start training from day one. Let's figure out the best plan for you and your dog—chat with Jenna today!

What training method do you use?

Knowing this is so important! I am a positive reinforcement trainer and will use whatever your pup likes to get the behaviors you want. I'll use food, toys, praise and play. Yes, we use consequences when needed, but never anything physically, mentally, or emotionally harmful. Have questions about how this could work for your dog? Chat with Jenna—it's free and no-obligation.

What behaviors can you help me with?

With twenty years of experience I can help with the most common dog behavior challenges. I specialize in dogs struggling with separation anxiety, helping new puppy owners, fear and anxiety, reactivity, to basic obedience challenges such as jumping, pulling on the leash, barking. Curious if this is the right fit for you and your pup? Chat with Jenna and let's talk it through.
