Coaching Dogs with Love and Compassion
Specialized dog training designed to cultivate a strong foundation between you and your cherished companions.
About Us
Coaching dogs and their families is my passion, what’s so exciting is that I come to you in the comfort of your home.
It’s really beneficial for you and your pup to learn and grow in their environment. This is where the fun and structure begin.
Ever since I was little girl animals were the center of my world, first horses then dogs but I do love and connect with all animals. That connection is an innate gift.
There’s something very unique about having a relationship with your dog. Obedience is a huge part of what I teach in training as its essential for caring for your pup but bonding, engagement and building a trusting relationship also goes a long way. I enjoy coaching families on their entire relationship with their best friend, the whole package.
The relationships I’ve had over the years with my dogs taught me to see life through a dog's eyes. To see everything in fascinating ways; the sun shining, storms brewing, children running, the elderly walking and leaves blowing in the wind. When dogs run off leash in a meadow, you can actually see them smiling. The way they look at us when we come home with their endearing eyes, it is an undeniable love. All we have to do is give our dogs love, affection, rules, boundaries, limitations, routine, obedience, structured playtime, engagement and of course a little more love on top of that. We owe it to them! The beautiful, loving, kind souls that they are.
My dear Rottweiler, Gabe, was my inspiration to start my dog coaching business. I'll be forever grateful for my time with him, he was truly my soul dog. I saw life through his perspective which opened my eyes to what dogs and different breeds think, see, and feel. RIP Gabe. My angel. A trusted companion.
I'm looking forward to working with you and your pup! I'm excited to share my knowledge and the experiences that have shaped me over the years.
Let the journey begin!

Focusing on you is essential
Coaching the sweet Danes to focus on me. Sit and stay.
MARKING each command with YES then a TREAT.
Patience is key in training
When training your dog patience is crucial. Dogs learn in small pictures. It’s up to us to show them what we want from them with lots of patience.
Because they're worth it

Pippa
Pippa was in a crate for 5 years with backyard breeders before I rescued her. She was so afraid of everything, even her own shadow. She knew nothing. I called Jami to help me, what a transformation! To me, Jami is a master K9 trainer. She respects all breeds and give them 110%. She truly loves to train, and she helps us humans understand too. We need it! I am so thankful to Jami and all her knowledge. I recommend her every chance I get. Absolutely the best!

Bee
Jami has worked with three dogs of mine over the last 25 years. She is the real deal! Dogs know she "gets" them. Her love and understanding are gifts which translate into the ways she helps humans live better with their furry friends. She has adapted her training suggestions to meet my family's changing needs. She helped ease our old dogs' pains right before he passed and coached us on making his transition a meaningful one. Then she taught our new puppy to walk on a leash in ONE day! Jami has a huge heart, for both people and pets!

ENZO
My husband Lance and myself lost our Ozzie a couple of years ago. After a while we thought maybe we were ready to bring another dog into our home. This time instead of getting a pup we decided to adopt a dog that needed a home. I felt a connection to a sweet ~2-year-old rather large male pit mix. We brought our female to meet him, and they hit it off. When we left it was very difficult getting him into the car, but we thought it was just scary and stressful for him with everything going on. The car issue continued as well as extreme difficulty walking on leash. We worked with several trainers, but we found in the real-world Enzo got very excited and hard to control. After two incidents where Enzo got loose, my husband found Jami’s K9-Coaching. Jami has been working with us for a few months now and we’re making great progress! It no longer takes 2-3 people to get him in the car. We’re working on his self-control so someday we can take long walks without fear. We know it will take time, but Jami has been patient with us. Both our dogs love when she comes to work with them, and we all look forward to her visits. Jami’s experience with large breed dogs has been a life saver for us even with the small issue of Enzo not liking to go into the kitchen, who knew all we needed was a throw rug! I highly recommend Jami’s K9-Coaching for an individualized training program designed specifically for you and your dog(s).

Basel
Jami helped train our sons, Swiss Mountain dog, puppy. She was punctual and you can see how much she loves dogs! She left us with a good process for how to work with our puppy to reinforce the training we learned.

Mabel
Jami is the absolute BEST. Hands down the greatest thing we did for our puppy and for our family. Our little pup is growing into such a fantastic girl and we owe it ALL to Jami Sue Moses-Phillips. I could not have better things to say about our experience!

Toby
It is a joy to work with Jami. She has a relaxing rapport with my dog, was very patient (with both of us!), and offered many valuable suggestions. You can also call her with any questions. She really cares. As a bonus, Jamie is also a very lovely person!

Hestia
This is Hestia. Rescued her at 9 months. No training. I was able to get her trained on my own but I could not get her to walk nicely on a leash ( of any kind ). Jami coached me virtually , now she walks amazing. THANK YOU Jami Sue Moses Phillips-

I absolutely LOVE Jami's K9 Coaching!
Lady (my 1-year-old Cavapoo) and I can't recommend Jami enough! At just 9 months old, Lady had her first session. Within 2 sessions, Lady mastered "place" and, more importantly, fell in love with Jami.
As a busy law student, I had little time for training, but Jami transformed Lady from a wild CLE suburban pup to a confident NYC queen! Thanks to Jami, Lady and I have lived in the city for 2 months and are thriving.
Jami's expertise, patience, and calm approach help dogs gain confidence, master commands, and navigate the world. What sets her apart is her tailored approach—she doesn't just train your dog; she teaches you how to connect, communicate, and truly understand your pup. But Jami is so much more than a trainer— she's a constant support system! As a first-time dog mom, I've learned an incredible amount from her, and because of that, I feel deeply connected to Lady in a way I never imagined.
PS… Lady is obsessed with Jami, her healthy treats, and most importantly, her deep-tissue massages!
If you're looking for a trainer who truly cares and delivers results, Jami is the 1!
