Our Trainers
Jess Cohen
Dog Trainer, Owner, and Rally Enthusiast
she/her
With over 15 years of experience, Jess is dedicated to helping dogs and their owners build strong, trusting relationships through science-based, force-free training methods. Inspired by a personal journey with a “tough” dog, she focuses on positive reinforcement and encouraging choice, allowing dogs to learn in the kindest and most effective way.
​
Jess teaches puppy classes, adult manners training, rally obedience, and trick training, always meeting each dog-owner team where they are and working together to bring out the best in both. Jess competes in CKC, CARO, UKC, and SDDA. Jess is proud to be a member of the Canadian Association of Professional Dog Trainers and is a Canadian Association of Rally Obedience (CARO) Judge. She will begin working toward her KPA-CTP certification in 2026.
At home, she shares her life with her husband, her son, and four beloved dogs—two Australian Shepherds, a Chihuahua, and an English Springer Spaniel—each bringing their own unique charm and talents to the family. Whether training for scent detection, rally obedience, or simply enjoying a long nap, her dogs are a constant source of joy and inspiration.
Jesse Hunter
Dog Trainer, Owner, and Clicker Whiz
she/her
Jesse specializes in positive reinforcement and clicker training. She approaches every behaviour challenge with kindness to build a strong, trusting connection between dogs and their humans. Her goal is to help owners communicate clearly with their dogs, creating partnerships based on respect, understanding, and joy.
​
Jesse offers a range of classes, including basic training, trick training, dog communication, and creative experiences like “art with your dog.” As a KPA-Certified Training Partner, she has completed an intensive program through the Karen Pryor Academy, refining her skills in science-based training and human coaching. Jesse focuses on supporting both dogs and their humans to make learning clear, engaging, and effective.
Her dog, Toki, is her greatest success story. After a traumatic attack in 2023, his resilience highlighted the power of positive reinforcement and the deep trust they had built. Affectionate, intelligent, and full of personality (especially with his devastating eyebrows), Toki continues to inspire Jesse’s work.
​​
One piece of advice Jesse always shares? Dogs speak through body language, not words. Understanding that language can transform the bond between dog and owner—and Jesse is here to guide that journey every step of the way.
