About Jessica
I’ve worked with dogs since 2011 — as a pet sitter, a shelter volunteer, foster parent, veterinary assistant, and trainer. I studied Animal Science and Pre-Veterinary Medicine at *The* OSU and gained hands-on experience working in shelters, clinics, and with a wide variety of animals. Currently, I share my home with my own dog and two very opinionated cats.
My passion for training really grew through fostering. Some of the dogs I brought into my home struggled with significant fear and reactivity, and helping them learn new skills — and eventually find the right homes — showed me how life-changing the right training approach can be.
Now at Better Bond Dog Training, my goal is simple: helping owners build clearer communication, more structure, and ultimately a better bond with the dog they share their life with.

I’ve known Jessica for nearly two decades and for more than half that time she has also known my dog, Tofu. Nobody gets Tofu to listen to them and obey commands better than Jessica. She truly is great at what she does.

Julie checked on Odie while I was out of state for a week of winter holidays. She got the info needed to calmly enter our home, care for our cat, and backup resources if concerns arose. Everything went well at a time when small things can become a headache. She didn’t even poop in the tub once – her MO. Thank you for taking great care of my grumpy girl! 😻🥲
