About Us

Jessica Cargill holds an M.S. in Biology and Behavioral Ecology from the University of Tulsa and a bachelor’s in biology with an emphasis in behavior from the University of Central Florida. She has worked with thousands of dog and owner teams through group classes, service dog training, day training, and board and train situations, and she has had the opportunity to mentor under and work with some of the most talented trainers in the country. Jessica learned dog training hands-on through a six-year-long apprenticeship with a highly skilled master trainer. She put in countless hours of work and practice to become a dedicated, pragmatic, professional handler and trainer and a fun, personable teacher.

​

After hearing from many of her clients how much they appreciated her taking care of their dogs when they were away and how safe they felt, Jessica decided that Tulsa, Oklahoma, deserves a high-quality, small-capacity dog boarding and dog training facility where people can rest assured their dogs are being cared for in a safe, sensible, clean, reliable and fun environment – and that her client dogs are kept to the same standard as her own beloved dogs.
