With private training, Jen will meet with you and your dog at your home, a park, or another suitable location.

Effective Help for a Wide Variety of Canine Concerns

Jen has experience helping clients with a wide array of training and behavior issues, including:

Reactivity (lunging, barking, or growling)
Aggression
Fear of the vet or groomers
Discomfort with handling and grooming
Overcoming fear of noises, people, places, or things
Resource guarding
Basic manners and foundation skills
Socialization (for puppies) and confidence building (for adult dogs)

Dog-dog interactions among dogs living in your household

Individualized Approach

Training is not one size fits all. Each human and dog is an individual, so Jen believes in customizing training plans to meet the needs of both people and their pets. Any consultation with Jen includes gathering a detailed history of your pet so that a plan can be created to meet your specific needs and help you achieve success.

Training Plans that are Easy to Understand

Training plans are written in language that is easy to understand and often include supplementary visuals and videos. Jen believes that the relationship between dog owners and trainers should be one of ongoing support. If questions arise, help is an email or phone call away.

All training at Wiggles and Woofs starts with an initial consultation. Options for initial consultations are described below.

After your initial consultation, any follow-up sessions you would like to book to continue working together are available at a lesser rate.

Follow-up Coaching Sessions

These private coaching sessions help you continue your training progress after your initial consultation. The trainer, owner, and dog are present for coaching sessions.

$100 for a 60 minute session in person
$50 for a 30 minute session in person
$10 discount/virtual sessions

$275 for a bundle of three 60 minute sessions in person (save $25)

Helping dogs with “stranger danger” inside and outside the home

Jen is a certified BAT instructor (CBATI) who loves teaching clients how to help dogs using BAT 2.0.

New Puppy Support Session

Puppies are adorable and wonderful! They also can be stressful! If you’ve never owned a puppy before, or perhaps haven’t had one for a while, this package is perfect to get you off to a great start. This package is designed to give you plenty of support for the first few months as your new friend settles into your home, and help you with many of the most common challenges that new dog owners face.

Most behavior problems can be prevented by preparing BEFORE your new puppy comes home. This package sets you up for success with the option of a consultation session that prepares you for your new dog before they arrive.

Since Jen has worked with puppy owners and adopters for years, she knows many of the most common questions and problems that new owners encounter. As part of this consultation, you receive a “Puppy Quick Start Guide” designed to quickly answer all of the most common questions that new puppy owners have about house training, chewing, learning to be left alone, and more!

Have you already brought your new pup home, and you’re feeling a bit overwhelmed? No problem, your consultation session can be adapted to your current needs.

Phone/text/email support is included for 3 months.

$150 for a 60 minute consultation session, Puppy Quick Start Guide, and 3 months of support
