Customer Reviews
We love Jenny! I’ve had the opportunity to work with her twice, once in a virtual group setting and then later on we did some one-on-one coaching through a specific issue. She is a knowledgeable and compassionate dog trainer and I felt so comfortable talking with her about the issues I was having with my dog. She advised me on some new routines to help with cooperative care, muzzle training, and crate training to help my dog with his reactivity around the house and to strangers (we have a Great Pyrenees), and every one of her tips that I’ve applied has been great. I’d highly recommend reaching out to Jenny if you’re struggling with reactivity with your dog, and the virtual training option is such a game changer! I’ve spent thousands on in person training and lessons with other dog trainers that didn’t hold up in the long run; Jenny is the real deal!
- Rachel RWe were at our wit's end with our reactive puppy until we found Jenny. Her compassionate but firm approach made all the difference in the world.

Recommended Certifications for Dog Trainers
When choosing a dog trainer, professional certifications are a strong indicator of expertise, experience, and commitment to ethical, science-based methods. Widely recognized credentials include the CPDT-KA or CPDT-KSA from the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers, which demonstrate mastery of modern training techniques, canine behavior, and learning theory. The KPA-CTP (Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner) highlights trainers skilled in positive reinforcement and clicker training, while the IAABC Certified Dog Trainer credential, recognized internationally, signals advanced knowledge in behavior modification and problem-solving. Membership or certification through the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT) further reflects ongoing education and adherence to ethical standards. Many trainers also pursue specialty certifications in areas such as aggression management, behavior modification, or puppy development to address specific challenges.
For pet parents, choosing a certified trainer like Jenny Sims is one way to keep training grounded in science, safety, and compassion. Asking about credentials, and confirming them on the profile, is one of the best ways to make a confident choice.
