Evelyn is amazing to work with! She is always positive and methodical with her approach which helps us understand more about our dogs. Every time we leave our training session, we feel like we are better, more informed owners. In a few months, our rescues, who were reactive and anxious to the point where we could sometimes not even take them on walks, have improved remarkably. We are going on lengthy walks every day and are looking forward to being to able take them hiking and camping soon. We also appreciate that everything we do in training is directly connected to our day to day. She's had us go to parks to practice walks around other distractions. She's used her own dogs to help practice socializing ours, and she has recommended and used tools, like a clicker and whistle, that we use everyday in our own home. In addition to her dog training expertise, Evelyn is communicative and professional. I'd recommend her to anyone without hesitation.
I am so happy that I chose to go with Evelyn after much research. I had been through petsmart training with our first dog and didn’t feel that was going to work with our second rescue. It was great working with Evelyn one on one with with training catered individually to my puppy. He is so energetic I never thought that he would be consistent as he was with commands. She literally worked her magic with him and we followed our homework to ensure good carryover. Evelyn was really attentive to my puppy’s behavior and really was able to give us tips based on how my puppy would respond. She has made me comfortable with walking him, gaining his attention, and interacting with other dogs and people. Not only did the training serve its purpose, but I definitely gained good bonding time with our new rescue puppy which has shifted our relationship 360 as he was very hesitant when we first got him. I would 100% do it all over again if we were to get another dog. I highly recommend this Evelyn and her services and I would not look anywhere else! Thank you Evelyn for everything!
Evelyn has been truly amazing to work with! She sees the best in each and every dog and works tirelessly to help owners build a lasting relationship with their dog that is based on trust, respect, and love. We rescued two dogs who did not know any basic commands and struggled with anxiety and reactivity. Evelyn has been patient, adaptive, and solutions-oriented throughout the entire training process. We leave each session with a specific strategy to practice and clear next steps. Our girls have made SO much progress and have become confident, well-trained dogs thanks to Evelyn's passion, optimism, and expertise. We would recommend her to any type of dog owner!
Evelyn has done wonders for not just training our dog Maverick, but for teaching us as well. She has an extensive knowledge of dogs and training, and in the case of our pup, the patience of a saint! I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking training for their dog, especially if you have a high energy dog.
Evelyn is training me as much as my pup! I really appreciate how she helps me grasp how our dog's mind works and how to understand her better. We still have a lot of work to do, but our insecure dog is already showing signs of confidence. Evelyn is easy to contact, responsive and has been super accommodating and flexible when we've had schedule upsets.
Evelyn is incredibly knowledgeable and breaks things down so logically, & simply. Makes learning & practicing the skills super easy! She makes the training sessions so upbeat and positive, we really look forward to them! And our pup does too! We are so grateful to have found her! She is simply the best!
Evelyn is a dog genius. She's patient, professional, kind -- she helped me and my husband really understand our reactive 1 year old 60 lb pup, and taught us how to interact with him to make sure that he's able to live his best life. Thanks
Evelyn is fantastic, a total dog whisperer. We went in with a little beast of a dog who didn’t listen to us, was jumping all over, just name it and he was doing it. Now our dog is manageable, behaving and listening to us. I can’t even say enough nice things about Evelyn and how much her dog training has helped us!
Evelyn is simply the best. She goes above and beyond to make sure your pup is well behaved. She helped our little pup Charlie out so much! Highly recommend !
Evelyn is very knowledgeable in all areas of dog training. We trained him in my yard and a local park with hiking trails. Cody is so much better off leash. He was stubborn but Evelyn took care of that.
Evelyn was absolutely wonderful. My dog listens better than ever. And he’s a stubborn little pups. Very reasonably priced and worth every penny!
Evelyn, is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and helpful, she is very focused on the task at hand while a lesson is in session, she goes over very helpful information and keeps the topic on dog training.
Evelyn is great! She really helped me understand the "language" of my pup so we can communicate with less frustration and stress.I highly recommend Jewel in the Ruff.
Had a great experience. Evelyn did a great job getting my Cooper to walk on the leash and based on her dietary suggestions he is now an enthusiastic and healthier eater. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for someone to come to your home and train your dog in its own home environment!
Evelyn is an excellent trainer. Very caring and extremely knowledgeable about animal behavior. Can’t recommend her highly enough!
We hired Jewel in the Ruff to help us train our energetic Boston Terrier, Maya. Maya is a one year old pup who really took over the house and told everyone that she was the boss.
We bought books, investigated on the internet, and followed all the advice that people gave us.
We got as far as teaching her to sit and shake, but that was it. We were at the point where we thought we would have to find Maya another home because her behavior was so bad. We hired Jewel in the Ruff and Evelyn came right to our house. She worked with Maya, but just as importantly, she worked with us to learn how to interact with Maya.
I’m happy to say that Maya is doing so much better! She’s obedient and extremely smart. She’s really learned to obey when we give a command. She’s a pleasure to walk in a leash, and I’m excited to have a walking buddy now! Thank you Evelyn and JITR for giving us the lovable and obedient dog we knew was somewhere inside Maya.
