Get to Know Me
Hello. I’m Jill Kudera, a Licensed Veterinary Technician with over eighteen years of experience. I now specialize in dog training and behavior because I believe every dog deserves a strong and loving relationship with their person. My passion is to help you and your dog thrive together.
I utilize science-backed, proven, force-free, positive reinforcement methods to create an
engaging learning environment. We can overcome any challenging behaviors by focusing on effective communication and understanding. My goal is to empower you with practical tools and strategies, enabling you to navigate any situation with confidence.
Let’s work together to strengthen your bond with your canine companion and enjoy the journey ahead!
My Vision
As a dog trainer, I stand out by design. Instead of large group classes, I focus on personalized, one-on-one sessions with you and your dog in the very environment they encounter daily. We’ll walk through your neighborhood, visit local parks, and I’ll be right by your side as we work through any triggers or uncomfortable situations together.
Recognizing that every dog and owner is unique, I excel at adapting my training to suit your specific needs. I’m committed to helping you find sustainable, tailored solutions that fit seamlessly into your lifestyle so you and your dog can live your best lives together.
My Why
After dedicating over eighteen years as a veterinary technician, committed to providing the best care possible, I began to wonder: Why do animals, our beloved four-legged family members, behave as they do?
When I started my certification training, I was admittedly a bit skeptical. After all, I had years of experience rooted in traditional methods. But this approach was different—entirely grounded in positive reinforcement and backed by science. It didn’t take long for me to realize the incredible impact of this method.
Today, as a certified trainer, I’m thrilled to share everything I’ve learned and continue to learn, helping others discover the depth of connection and joy possible with these intelligent, complex beings.
