Her training program has transformed countless families, creating stories of success and lasting change through her expertise and dedication.
“Our experience with Jacqueline Zinetti has been life changing. If I could give 1000 stars I would. If I was ever skeptical of E-collars, I’m not anymore!! We just got our soon-to-be 7-month-old puppy back & life is beautiful!!!
Jacqueline not only put the time in with him but continues to put the time in with us as well. You without a doubt will receive exactly what you are looking for and more with her training.
Walks are so much more enjoyable, our puppy no longer pulls us around on the leash and is now a gentleman meeting new people. He is also no longer a menace inside the house. The change is incredible & if you’re worried about your dog’s personality changing like I was, there is no need. He’s still the biggest mush and silly boy — only difference is his Harvard diploma!
Jacqueline, we can’t thank you enough!! Trust me, this woman is who you need.”
Jacqueline has been raising and training animals of all kinds since she was a young girl. Her spare time is devoted to rearing her own pets, as well as fostering and training other animals through volunteer work. After over 10 years in a successful sales career, Jacqueline decided to pursue her dream of working with animals full time.

Jacqueline’s first experience training animals came with Shadow, a Coyote German Shepherd mix, living on a horse farm in Saratoga Springs, NY. Shadow was feared by the farm community because of an incident when she chased and bit a child on a bicycle. As a result, Shadow was chained to a tree for more than a year. Though her basic needs were attended to, she lacked any human contact until Jacqueline arrived.
Discover the joy of a well-behaved, confident, and happy dog with Off Leash K9 Training! Our proven training methods are designed to not only build a stronger bond with your dog but also establish healthy boundaries that create a balanced, respectful relationship.
With persistence, Jacqueline was given permission to take Shadow off the chain as long as she was kept leashed at all times. Over the next few months, Jacqueline worked with Shadow until eventually Shadow was off leash and working as Jacqueline’s partner to herd the 30 horses that lived on the farm.
Upon deciding to change careers in 2011, Jacqueline trained for over a year, averaging 60 hours per week researching, applying, and comparing different training methods and philosophies. As a trainer, it is imperative to understand different methodologies in order to optimize your craft, share learnings with other professionals in the field, and keep up with current thinking. Jacqueline’s rescue Chihuahua, Mr. Chico, was happy to play guinea pig, helping her to hone her skills. Mr. Chico is a shining example that whether a dog is 5 pounds or 150 pounds, the same philosophy of consistency, fairness, and clear communication can be applied. Jacqueline’s two resident Chihuahuas are both certified therapy dogs.
The family volunteers regularly with children and adults who need a smile that only a dog can inspire. Jacqueline also works full time with Eleventh Hour Rescue, a nonprofit, volunteer-based rescue operation out of Randolph, NJ. Jacqueline’s home is a temporary refuge for a variety of foster dogs; puppies who may be days old and in need of hand raising, scared dogs who come from abusive homes who need to learn trust again, or lonely dogs that just need a belly rub and a smile. This volunteer work allows Jacqueline to use her well-studied knowledge to help dogs of various sizes and personalities find and adapt to homes for these grateful pups.
Jacqueline is thrilled to bring Off Leash K9 Training to the NY/NJ area. Specializing in the same dog training techniques used by the military and law enforcement, this style of training encompasses her core beliefs and philosophy of consistency, fairness, and crystal clear communication.

Our Reviews
100% worth every penny!!!!!! Jackie is the best. After three weeks of training my dog and I have a common language with which to communicate calmly. I am no longer anxious about being able to control my dog's behavior and he is no longer anxious because I am not yelling commands at him which he could not understand. He comes to me when prompted, taking walks with him has become a pleasant experience. I am not worried about how he will react to other dogs because Jackie has taught me how to be in charge and my dog looks to me to let him know what to do before reacting to impulse. Jackie basically trained us both. Having a puppy became easier, more carefree and enjoyable!!!!
As an owner dealing with two energetic pups, who were about 6-7 months old, I felt a bit overwhelmed. I have had GSD’s before but not 2 and not the same age, at the same time.I had no idea how to start. Everyone told me it will be impossible. My pups were wild and I could not get them to listen and obey! I dreamt of peaceful walks and cozy evenings with family and friends, but that seemed impossible with my furry tornadoes. Until J- came back and did her magic!!
So, I took a leap of faith and decided to board and train them. I was nervous—what if they didn't remember me? What if our bond faded? But Jacqueline assured me, and she delivered! My pups returned more bonded to me than ever, thanks to her expert guidance. She truly cares for them like her own.
Throughout their training, Jacqueline kept me in the loop with videos and updates, which kept my nerves at bay. When they came home, they looked fabulous, fit, and—most importantly—obedient! The difference in their behavior was astounding. I’ve watched countless training videos and tried working with another trainer, but nothing compares to what Jacqueline brings to the table.
It was absolutely worth it to bring my beautiful Zara and Hero to Jacqueline for training. I’d do it a hundred times over! If you're looking for elite training for your furry family members, look no further! She is EXQUISITE. Her demeanor, her care , her knowledge and more importantly, her understanding of these fur babies is all I can ask for and more.
"We love Aunt Jacqueline and are endlessly grateful for the joy and harmony her training has brought to our family!

We brought our 6 month-old Golden Retriever(Leia) to her, best thing we ever did.
Walking Leia, taking her anywhere was a very tiring task. She was walking us, needed to go say hi to everyone even if they didn’t welcome the hi. It was very difficult to control her. We never thought we’d be able to have her off leash but now, no matter the distractions she does great on and off leash.
Jacqueline spent hours on the phone before the drop off explaining everything in detail. The training is not only for the puppy but for the parents also.
There was so much Jacqueline explained about why dogs do the things they do and it stems from us.
Not only do you get training for your puppy but you also get training for your entire family.
Our Leia is amazing now, we take her everywhere and everyone comments on how well behaved she is.
What’s even better is Jacqueline continues to stay in touch, offering ongoing support and advice.
Highly recommend to anyone looking for great training!
Within a few minutes of our first phone call with Jacqueline, it was clear her dedication to bringing out the best in our dog. She listened to all our concerns and was very clear in what to expect during and after training.
We really value the individualized attention and support she provides—whether through detailed follow-ups, extra tips on how to maintain good habits, or check-ins to see how things were progressing.
Our once out of control, dramatic, and stubborn puppy is now very obedient and loving life even more than before training.
If you're looking for a skilled, trustworthy, and passionate dog trainer, Jacqueline is the person to go to. She exceeded all our expectations and truly brought out the best in our dog. We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend her services to anyone!!
Let me give some background. I adopted my standard poodle Layla around December of 2022. I also have another standard poodle named Logan age 10. Logan had training sessions around the same age as Layla started. From basic training Logan grew up respectful, obedient, and supportive. Thinking Layla’s training would be just as easy as Logan’s was a huge mistake on my part. No matter the amount of training sessions Layla was still not getting it, nothing to do with the trainer but everything to do with the type of demeanor Layla contains.
I was researching trainers in my area for a long time and was just unsure how to proceed. One day I stumbled upon Jacqueline’s website and that is when I took it upon myself to really dive into her background and credentials. After watching hours of her videos and scrolling through countless instagram post, I wanted to really grasp the concept of e-collar training. I was very nervous not knowing how Layla would react to boarding for 3 weeks. I contacted Jacqueline and within 24 hours she got back to me. I mentioned all my concerns and comments which she confidently answered. After doing some research on e-collars I decided I was ready. When I dropped Layla off I was nervous, it’s like dropping your child off at camp. The truth is though I knew she was in the greatest care possible. Throughout the 3 weeks Jacqueline updated me about Layla.
Layla had a multitude of issues with obedience, listening, jumping, confidence, barking, you name it she would do it. She would not be able to stay in place without following me.
Layla is still the same old Layla but now she is respectful. She doesn’t bark, she doesn’t jump, she listens, everything completely changed forever in a positive way. I can have her around babies, and family without a single worry. Before training that was a major issue. We enjoy our hikes without a leash which is the proper way a canine deserves to experience the outdoors. Before Jacqueline that would never be possible. Now her recall skills are immaculate. I can go anywhere with her and not worry. My life and her life are changed for the better forever. I cannot thank Jacqueline enough for everything she has done for Layla, my family, and me.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🙏
The best decision that we made was trusting Jacqueline. Luna is now happy, well-adjusted and safe. We have a confident, well-mannered dog that we can take anywhere. We 100% recommend Jacqueline Zinetti!
Prior to training, taking Zara on walks was so stressful as she was constantly tugging and distracted by every little thing on the way. We were always nervous and scared with her bolting out the doors; she had an overwhelming amount of energy and no idea how to focus and calm down. Now after spending 3 weeks with Jac she is so much calmer, walks by our side and has her full focus on us. The level of patience Jac had training our dog is incredible! Not only did she spend so much time and energy in training Zara, she has gone above and beyond in training us and helping us step by step via videos and follow up visits. I know for a fact that Jac will be there for us for the years to come even after the training for any questions or help we may need with Zara.
As for the e-collar, we were a bit hesitant as most about using it on our puppy. Jaqueline made sure to help us understand how the collar works and how much it can really benefit our relationship and communication with the puppy. She made sure to have us hold and feel the collar and answer all our questions; and it has been a great tool in helping us communicate with Zara.
Jac prioritizes the pups and her clients above all else. Once you are in it with her, she is there for you for the long run. She has always been quick to respond to any and all of our questions and has always set up time for us to walk through things in detail. As overwhelming as it can be having to send your pup away for 3 weeks, Jac will take care of your pup like her own. Thank you so much for everything you've done!!
We were veryyyy hesitant about this whole process (I mean who wants to send their dog away for 3 weeks to a complete stranger?!) but that feeling was short lived. The second Jacqueline and I connected via phone to discuss issues with our pup, goals, etc. I felt instant relief. She took the time to really explain her board and train process to us and I could tell immediately that Jacqueline wasn't just a board and train 'service', this was her life and her absolute passion. We got to meet Jacqueline at drop-off and that was another moment where we were reassured that our pup was in great hands. I knew that we wouldn't have to worry at all about how our pup would be treated with Jacqueline - we knew she would treat him as if he were her own. And that's just what she did...
During the 3 weeks, Jacqueline would send us pictures and videos of Lincoln's progress and how he was doing. She would always always find the time to get back to us if we had questions/wanted updates. When we picked up Lincoln in Northern Jersey, we were amazed by his transformation. We couldn't believe that this was the same dog that was dragging us down the NYC streets just 3 weeks ago! Now it was our turn to be trained. We spent several hours with Jacqueline at pick up to go through everything (commands, how to work the e-collar, what to do and what not to do, etc.) She was sooo patient with us and helpful - I honestly think she would've stayed there all night answering our questions if we felt we needed it.
Bringing Lincoln home to NYC was very overwhelming at first. Lots of distractions for Lincoln on the street, and we were still getting comfortable with the e-collar remote, so I'd be lying if I said it was easy. We were constantly sending Jacqueline videos and she would go through each and every video (second by second) and tell us what we were doing right and wrong. She actually facetimed us while we were walking and gave us guidance - our very own personal follow up session!! The point is, she truly is there to support you after the training is over and I believe that is invaluable (since I think more than half the battle is the owners being trained). We felt completely supported throughout the WHOLE process, and even now (our dog came out of boarding almost 3 months ago).
Overall, I cannot stress enough how Jacqueline went ABOVE and BEYOND for Lincoln (and for us) in more ways than one during both his training and after. At this point, I consider Jacqueline a friend and someone that we will have in our corner forever! We are now able to take our dog everywhere with us and have the strong bond with him that we had always pictured - and for that, we are forever grateful to our favorite Aunt Jacq!!!
I promise that choosing Jacqueline to train your dog will be the BEST decision you ever make!
Like any dog parent, we were very concerned about leaving him for 3 weeks. We also did not know much about how e-collars worked. Jacqueline walked us through everything, explaining with detail what the training consisted of and what it would address. After our conversation with her, we were confident that Emilio would be safe and that this would be the best for him and for us. Another factor that weighed on our decision to choose Jacqueline as Emilio’s trainer was the fact that Emilio would be living with her and would socialize with her dogs.
Throughout the 3 weeks of training, Jacqueline kept us informed of Emilio’s progress. She was always available to respond to any questions or concerns we had. She sent us photos and videos of Emilio. We could tell Emilio was having fun with her. When we went to pick up Emilio, we were amazed with his transformation. Emilio was the same happy dog, but now he was well-behaved and responsive to commands. The e-collar is a great tool and has done wonders for Emilio. He is staying calm in his crate for the first time ever (he actually loves being there) and doesn’t pull on the leash anymore.
Jacqueline is the best at what she does because she not only trains the dogs, but also teaches you, the dog owner, to better communicate with your dog. After the three weeks, follow-up sessions are necessary for the learning process and extremely helpful. Jacqueline has taught us how to use the e-collar and takes time to review the videos we send her of our practice sessions with Emilio. She gives us step by step analysis of the video and guidance to correct our mistakes. Jacqueline’s passion for dogs, knowledge and professionalism, make her the best person to trust your dog with. We will strongly recommend Jacqueline to every dog owner we know.
Having a 14 month old German Shepherd Dog weighing in close to 90 lbs, we realized we needed more control. Additionally, our dog goes to work regularly at a golf course, and after a few close-calls chasing deer off leash, we knew we needed complete reliability. We had some hesitation about the e-collar, but after several conversations with Jacqueline to better understand her philosophy and techniques, we sent our dog for the board and train.
We've had our pup home for almost 4 weeks and I am still amazed at his transformation, as well as my own! Jackie said that it's about teaching the dog, as well as the owner, and I couldn't agree more. The better I communicate and lead, the more confident and relaxed our dog has become, and it just keeps getting better!
One of our goals was to make sure that he would behave and run alongside a moving golf cart. After the board and train, Jackie took the time to face-time with us as we attempted this maneuver. She immediately identified what was working, and more importantly, what was not working in the way we communicated what we wanted from our dog. After about 30-45 minutes of face-time tutoring, he got it! (And so did we!)
We've had our moments where he will act bratty and test us, and through Jackie's ongoing guidance, we are able to snap him out of it and get him right back on track. He now runs perfectly alongside the cart! And just this morning, when he saw a coyote in the woods, I was able to use the e-collar to redirect him to safety. Thank you Jackie for empowering all of us and keeping us safe!
