Absolutely incredible dog trainer! We began training our Rottweiler puppy at 9 weeks old and the impact this training has had on him is amazing. He's nearing 6 months old and we constantly get compliments from friends and in public about how well behaved he is We also have him in different daycare training programs and when Barbara Jean shows up he immediately runs to her van and jumps in the crate. It's so assuring to see how excited he is to go when we send him off for the day.

Barbara Jean provided in-home pet sitting for us, and as first-time users of an in-home sitter, I was definitely nervous (total helicopter dog mom here!). She reached out right away to discuss our needs and scheduled a meet-and-greet to get to know our Maltipoo and Aussie. One of our pups has resource guarding behavioral challenges, which was our biggest concern, it takes someone experienced and confident to manage this safely. Barbara Jean took the time to truly listen to our routine and patiently answered all of our many questions. Her expertise and glowing reviews are exactly what led us to choose her, especially her specialization in dogs with behavioral needs. She also sent daily updates with photos, which was incredibly reassuring, especially since this was our first time. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups! We will absolutely be using Doggie WOW again and highly recommend Barbara Jean.

Barbara Jean was wonderful to work with. She helped us in training our Brittany puppy and we have been so thankful that we called her. The one on one attention she gave and her attention to what we needed most in training a dog to fit with our lifestyle is unmatched to anyone that we have had experience with in the past. We now have the tools to feel confident in our everyday life with our pup and also when introducing him to new things that we don’t deal with everyday. If anything comes up that is an issue, I know I will be giving her a call to help guide us. Thank you Barbara Jean!

Barbara Jean has had a special connection with animals. The love, compassion and kindness she has for them is like nothing I have ever seen before. Through out her many years of training she has become the dog "whisperett". I have seen her work miracles with animals that so many people had given up on. She is definitely the best in the business!! 🐕🦮🐕‍🦺❤️
