evidence-based support for separation anxiety & other separation-related behaviors in dogs

You’ve tried everything to help your dog feel safe at home alone.

does this sound familiar?

  • You’re committed to going at your dog’s pace, but conflicting advice, slow progress, and regressions make you question whether you’re on the right path.

  • Your dog’s progress is complicated by other challenges like fear of people, sound sensitivities, or pain.

  • Managing alone-time feels isolating and exhausting—you’re organizing everything on your own and feeling burnt out.

  • You know “it takes a village” but don’t know how to recruit qualified support from other dog professionals.

  • You understand that recovery is an ongoing process, and you’re eager to find community support to celebrate the small wins along the way.

Hey there!

We’re Jackie & Jess

We guide guardians through the complexities of separation anxiety, stress, resilience, and meeting needs.

Separation anxiety is nuanced. So are you and your dog. Our integrated approach prioritizes each dog - and each guardian - to support a sustainable behavior modification protocol.

We know from experience how challenging it can be to figure out the separation anxiety training process. We also know that everything is connected. Lasting separation anxiety recovery requires a holistic view of your dog, through the lens of overall well-being.
