Jessica has made a HUGE difference in my ability to walk my dog with confidence. I'm able to redirect him from things that use to be huge triggers for him which has made walking him a more enjoyable experience for both of us. read more

Jessica had a special connection with our four month old dachshund. We saw daily improvement in our puppy's willingness to follow commands. Jessica sent several videos every day with instructions and explanation, so we could continue the training at home. I love the videos because I could share them with the rest of the family and we can reference them later if needed. Jessica is a kind soul and our dog loved her. read more

We are a few weeks out from having Jessica work with our English Bulldog. He is still a great walking partner and is much more calm. When we first brought him to Jessica he was a typical, bossy, bulldog full of energy. She immediately addressed his problem areas and taught us how to work with him. Our favorite takeaway is his "place" training. He will sit and stay in place until he is released. He's a much happier pup with direction and we are much happier he is behaved! We highly recommend Jessica as she worked wonders with our stubborn guy!! read more

I am so grateful for finding Jessica! Prior to working with Jessica of Pack Harmony, my dog, Watson, would bark at every dog and child that he walked by and every dog in our building. This made it difficult to walk him and people with other dogs didn't want to be around him. I had worked with two other trainers but nothing changed. However, after working with Jessica for just 4 sessions, Watson doesn't bark anymore! He is much easier to handle, and I feel like I have more control of him. I highly recommend Jessica. She has a different approach than many other trainers, which actually works, and I will definitely use her in the future for issues that come up. read more

My Stanton aka Fatty Boy is a sweet, loving and quirky little monster. I love him so much, however, he was unbearable on walks!!! He was a stray and on walks he was so defensive and would growl, bark and try to bite anyone that came near! Walking him and his nutty sister Rivington was draining. My fear was that someone would come too close and he would bite them. Also, there are a lot of kids in my building and neighborhood and I didn't want my Stanton to in any way be the cause of them being scared of dogs. I found Pack In Harmony on Yelp and it has been wonderful. Jessica is great. Firm but not rough and her tips have worked. He is more than halfway to being a well behaved dog on walks. Her prices are reasonable and her insights and methods are priceless!!! read more

I rarely write reviews, but our experience with Jessica has been so great right at the first session, that I want to let anybody, who's stressed and in need with their dog, to look no further. My boys and I, have adopted a beautiful 2 years old male, Pit bull terrier mix. We have never had experience with big dogs (and very little with dogs in general) and we were struggling a lot both at home as well as walking him around. Only 10 days after bringing him home, we were all in a bit of an emotional crisis. I found Jessica browsing online and thankfully she was available the next day. You can feel her calm, positive and yet firm energy from the moment you meet her. She was quick to evaluate and address things that needed to change. She explained all the reasons behind and everything made a lot of sense. We went for a walk in the neighbor as well as Central park . King was responsive to her guide instantly. All I can say it that after one session, the tree of us can now walk King anywhere in the city, for hours with no incidents. At home, I feel more empowered and therefore not afraid to impose rules, because of that, King is more relaxed. He now trusts me and listens. It amazes me, that one visit has completely changed us for the better. Jessica is truly gifted. Very much looking forward to the next session!! read more

Jessica’s Dog Training - Pet Training Near Me

Jessica walked my two wire-haired daschunds, Gilligan and Ginger, for six months before I moved back up to Boston. Gilligan and Ginger (especially Gilligan) don't warm up to everyone, but they really loved Jessica. Jessica was extremely responsible, had the keys to my house and did a great job. I wish she were here in Boston! read more

As a single doggie mama, it has been such a relief having Jessica help me out with Spike. She's great with him and responds quickly to my crazed texts "can you come tomorrow" or "can you go by tonight". She does her best to accommodate me and I think it's because she loves my dog. How many dog walkers can you really say that about? read more

Jessica is a trustworthy professional who I give the highest recommendation. I have used her for dog walks and training for several years. I have 2 rescued basenjis (one of the most difficult breeds to train) and both have responded well under her supervision. She is always timely, consistent and reliable. She even has filled in on last minute care when asked. She would give useful tips as well if you had a unique issue. Her fees are very reasonable, especially considering if you are getting dog walks you will be getting proper dog walking manners skills too. I was so bummed she was moving as I have used numerous services for dog walking and training and she has been the best. read more

Jessica is a great dog walker. We got our rescue mutt on the fly and were in a jam to find a good dogwalker in short notice. I found her ad posted on Craigslist and am so glad I did! She has this calm, kind energy about her. One time I happened to be home when she was walking my dog and as soon as she came in, he literally rolled over on his back to get a belly rub. I've even had people from my apt building ask to use Jessica because they see how good she is with my dog. She's a nice person and trustworthy too! read more

Jessica is a trustworthy, sweet and responsible dog walker. She has been walking my dog for over a year and he loves her. Every time I say her name he wags his tail and really looks forward to seeing her. She is very kind and loving with my doggie nelson, and I can tell she really cares about him. Jessica has also helped me out in a pinch, she walked my dog on Thanksgiving and again this year right around the holidays! She even walks my dog on the weekends! My neighbors often stop me on the street and tell me how amazing my dog is when he walks with her. I am so thankful Jessica walks my dog, she is amazing and I wholeheartedly recommend her. read more

Jessica has been walking my 2 1/2 year old German Shepherd, Gretchen, since she was 8 weeks old. Gretchen LOVES her! It's amazing how much my dog gets excited when Jessica comes over. Jessica gives Gretchen lots of massage pets and great long walks daily. Jessica is also very knowledgeable and goes above and beyond when it comes to caring for dogs. When my dog was sick, Jessica taught me about pumpkin filling. She bought a can of it and gave it to Gretchen and she was better when I came back from work. Now I always keep a can of pumpkin filling in my pantry. Thanks for that Jessica. In addition to being an amazing dog walker, Jessica is very trust worthy, responsible and understands how to handle all types of dogs. My neighbor has Jessica come to walk her dog too. If you are looking for a dog walker, Jessica is the best!! Your dog will love her too. read more

I highly recommend Jessica and Pack in Harmony! I rescued a former medical research Beagle in late 2018. I knew that I would need the help of a professional because he had spent the first 11 months of his life in a lab. While very sweet and friendly, Larson lacked training in several areas. I chose a 6-session package and I am thrilled with the results. My decision to select Pack in Harmony was definitely influenced by the fact that Jessica had trained with Cesar Milan and it is clear that she was trained by the best. I saw immediate results after the first session in how he behaved on the leash and with general commands. I loved the fact that she didn't rely on treats. We used his kibble and it was just as effective. Each week, we tackled different issues: commands, crate training, preventing jumping on guests, permission to jump up on the couch, fear of the vacuum (still working on that one), house training, etc... What I really like about Jessica is that she has a firm, but calming presence that immediately commanded respect from Larson. She was patient with him but with me as well, as I also required training on various things to do/ not do or tweaks in behaviors I didn't ever realize I was doing. She would explain the philosophy behind various training techniques. Effective dog training requires consistency and repetition from the owner, which is much harder than it sounds. Thanks to Jessica, I now have the proper tools to continue training Larson to be the best dog he can be : ) read more

Jessica has saved me from a couple of tight spots. Going out of town on a Holiday, and the normal dog sitter canceled at the last minute. Jess Max to the rescue! Dog walkers have to be extremely trustworthy, not just because they are taking the lives of your precious pooches in their hands, but because they literally have the keys to your apartment. Jessica has proven that trust from me. read more

We have two dogs: one feisty mutt, Pip, and one very old (17!) terrier mix (Nora). We live in a third floor walk-up and Nora can't take the stairs and she can't really be walked at the same pace as peppy Pip. Jessica takes them separately - first taking Pip for a nice long walk to expend some of that energy and then coming back and CARRYING Nora down (and later back up) the stairs for her slower-paced jaunt. Pip and Nora both love her and it's nice to know that they are in good hands when we're off at work. More than that, Jessica is reliable - not missing a single day in the 1.5 years we've used her as a walker. We've lived in NYC for a long time, and let me tell you - there are some really bad dog walkers out there. Meeting someone as kind and professional as Jessica was a godsend. If you have a dog who is truly "part of the family" then you need a Jessica in your life. read more
