    Jared is a great trainer!! He helped me with my dog Domino who is leash reactive and barks at strangers. He was very knowledgeable, analyzed the areas where Domino needed guidance and then and gave me great advice and tips. We practiced different techniques and I was very impressed with how much it helped Domino immediately. He was very friendly and made Domino comfortable. You can tell he has a passion for what he does. I would highly recommend Jared if you live in the Bay Area and have been thinking about training your dog or need help with any specific issues. Thank you so much for your help!!

    Jared at Bark Busters did an amazing job working with my dog and keeping her prey drive under control. Watching him in action was amazing, he broke her attention away from a squirrel multiple times and was very quick on rewarding her. He explained everything as he did it, so I could work with her whenever the opportunity arrived in the future. This is the most important part with training from my experience, the knowledge to replicate the training so we as pet parents can reinforce it throughout our dogs lives.

    My husband and I were looking for some help with our reactive pitbull. We had already had some experience with training her at different places but needed a new trainer after moving. Jared was a perfect fit! He came to our place and helped us learn how to read our dog's behavior in her natural environment. Our dog is making awesome progress! She is less reactive and responds more to our corrections now that we know how to communicate with her! Our dog has a long journey but knowing that Jared is by our side the whole way brings us so much peace. I cannot recommend Jared enough!

    Photo of Cody Our family was desperate to find a company who can assist our 2 English Bulldog’s who suffer from anxiety, aggression with toys and food, and who are very over protective of us. Cody, who is our special Bulldog is a work in progress. He is so loving, but when it comes to meeting new people who always has his guard up and needs to be the protector of the family! After meeting Jared, he shared some quick tips on how to assist him with his aggression. I can easily say that although Cody is not at 100%, he has made significant progress inside the home and outside as well. Jared is so patient and understanding and without his help, I don’t know what we would have done or where we would be! If I could give 10 stars I would! Jared is by far the BEST trainer in San Mateo, Ca!! If you are looking for a trainer, please reach out to Bark Busters if you are in the San Mateo County!

    Photo of Cooper My daughter found Bark Busters to help with our 2 family dogs who have anxiety, and some aggressive behaviors. I was a little skeptical with this training, since we have tried other trainers to help our dogs. Meeting Jared was the best things that happened for our dogs. Even though we are not at 100% trained, we have the tools and basic resources to incorporate in our dogs lives. It all started with the “door” training. It makes them both less anxious and they understand that they must wait and be calm before they can come in and out of the house! We still are in the middle of our trainings, but you will be happy with the results, and you will see results on Day 1! If you live in San Mateo, Ca please request Jared! He is the BEST!

    I recently had the pleasure of working with Jared from Bark Buster to help mitigate if not get rid of my dog's bad habits and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. Jared's expertise and patience were evident from the very first session. He took the time to understand my dog's personality and problems then tailored the training accordingly.

    Jared's methods were very effective, ensuring that my fluff ball felt comfortable and supported throughout the entire training process. The improvement in my dog's behavior has been remarkable. Commands that were once a struggle are now followed with ease, and our daily walks have become a joy rather than a challenge.

    I highly recommend Jared to anyone in need of professional dog training. His dedication, skill, and genuine love for animals make him an exceptional trainer. Thank you, Jared, for transforming our lives and helping my dog become the best version of himself!

    Photo of Jared is AWESOME! My husband and I have two dogs (7 year old 100lb, and 3 year old 40lb) and a baby, and needed help calming the dogs' energy before going out the back door (along with a couple other things). We tried many training approaches unsuccessfully, which is what eventually led us to seek out a trainer. While at work, both sets of grandparents watch the dogs and baby, so we needed to include them in training. Jared worked with all of us during individual visits, and tailored coaching to all of our unique needs. He was VERY patient and encouraging to all of us. After just one visit we noticed a change in our dogs. I would recommend Jared for anyone needing help to get through to their dogs. Any age. Any breed. Any owner.

    Photo of 7-Month Yorkshire I'm shocked by the effectiveness of some simple concepts applied. I have a lifetime of dog ownership (mostly poodles) and now a 7-month old Yorkshire puppy who was a challenge. I saw the behavioral changes before my eyes in the first training! Let's be clear tho....the training is for the human not the dog. It was what I did (not the dog) that completely reset our relationship and as a result turned a wild puppy into a well obeyed puppy who actually looks at me and listens! Jared is the best! And he came back to check on me (not the dog) to see if I was practicing and was having a good experience. I bought the "for life" package and could not be happier.

    Photo of Obi I've worked with Bark Busters since 2021 when I first adopted my dog, Obi. He had some behavioral and anxiety issues that we needed to get under control. I shopped around for a few different trainers that were a bit cheaper but the training just didn't work well with my dog. I came across Bark Busters and was a little hesitant because of the pricing, but I felt that their methods of communication made so much sense. I first worked with Dalila and was stunned by her passion and commitment to this program. I had such an amazing experience with her and we were able to manage Obi's leash manners and home anxiety. As time went on, we reached back out to Bark Busters since Obi was beginning to act up again around other dogs. Because of that lifetime guarantee, we were able to work with Jared at no additional cost. Jared was very lovely and personable. He gave us great tips and a little refresher course. I would highly recommend working with Bark Busters because you can tell they genuinely care about their clients and want the best for your family!
