We’ve been taking our 5 month old puppy there for their 6 week program and feel like he’s had amazing progress! Our pup was starting to develop some bad behavior and looking for trainers was really intimidating until we found By My Side. After going in for a consultation we knew it would be a great fit! Jess and Gia are so informative and really help us understand not only how to train him, but why certain things do/don’t work. They work on the basics and also focus training on where we would like to see him improve so it’s great to have the collaboration aspect. We definitely recommend them to anyone who’s looking to bring their dog in !!

**Review for By My Side K9 Training by Giavanna and Jess ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the pleasure of enrolling my dog in training with Giavanna and Jess at By My Side K9 Training, and I cannot express how impressed I am with the entire experience. From the very first consultation, Giavanna’s and Jess’s passion for dogs and training was evident. She possesses an incredible ability to connect with both pets and their owners, making the training process not only effective but also enjoyable. Giavanna’s and Jess’s approach is both humane and effective. She incorporates positive reinforcement techniques that not only help dogs learn but also build their confidence. My dog, who was once a bit timid and hesitant with new commands, has blossomed under her guidance. The environment is welcoming and supportive, allowing dogs to learn at their own pace while receiving consistent encouragement. What truly sets Giavanna and Jess , apart is her personalized training plans. She took the time to understand my dog's specific needs and behaviors, tailoring the sessions accordingly. The results have been nothing short of amazing! My dog is now more obedient, alert, and has an overall better demeanor. It’s heartwarming to see how much happier and more confident my pup has become. Beyond training, Giavanna and Jess, imparts valuable knowledge about dog behavior and communication, empowering me as an owner to reinforce good habits at home. The skills and techniques I’ve learned are practical and have transformed our daily routine into a more harmonious experience. The facility itself is well-maintained and provides a safe and stimulating environment for training. I appreciate the one on one training which allow for more individualized attention. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend By My Side K9 Training to anyone looking for a trustworthy and effective dog training experience. Whether you’re a first-time dog owner or looking to address specific behavior issues, Giavanna and Jess are the expert you want by your side. Thank you, Giavanna, and Jess, for your dedication and for making such a positive impact on our lives! Thank you again

We just finished our 6 week private training for walking and greeting manners with our 1 year old pittie. We can’t recommend Gia and Jess enough for the work they have done with Nino. Not only are they professional and knowledgeable but also really care about the dogs. Nino is very happy to see them even though he has work to do. We were so impressed with the results that we signed up for more advanced training. Thank you again Gia and Jess!

Bymysidek9 was definitely the right choice for me and my dog.my puppy loves the trainers jess and gia, and was always wagging and ready to train with them. I was able to build a stronger relationship with my girl Zoey. Even after Zoey graduated I was able to contact the trainers for additional help. Thank you so much!
