Fantastic trainer! Supportive, patient, and positive. Highly recommend if you need support with your pup. My partner and I have worked with her to help our little guy Carl gain confidence on his walks, reduce his anxiety, and learn some basic commands. Very grateful to be able to work with Jenina. Carl has learned a bunch since we've started working together.

Google listingJenina is a fantastic trainer and a great person to work with. She has taught us so much about our dog and given us a realistic training program to help us make steady progress toward our training goals. She has a compassionate approach and cares deeply for the animals she works with. If you’re looking for an excellent and friendly dog trainer in LA, I highly recommend Smart Paws.
We're so happy we chose Smart Paws! Our dog has learned so much from Jenina, and she has also done a great job of training us humans to teach our dog effectively. She breaks the training down into manageable parts that build into the result you're seeking. She's kind and professional. Highly recommend.
Smart Paws is AMAZING. Jenina came to our home for a session to help us train our 12 week old puppy. She is so wonderful, knowledgeable and compassionate with dogs. With her help our puppy is already nipping less and more comfortable and willing to go into her crate. Her methods make a lot of sense and are kind but firm. Cannot recommend her enough!

Simply put, Jenina is a wonderful dog trainer. She's especially kind and gentle with your pup, while simultaneously giving you concrete and definitive instructions on how to work out whatever problematic behaviors your dog might have. Each session with her was not only an enjoyable experience, but also incredibly informative. Our rescue dog has issues with leash pulling, as well as motion and sound sensitivity / anxiety, which Jenina recognized immediately and was able to give us straightforward techniques to work through with our little goofball.
