DOG TRAINING & BEHAVIOUR MODIFICATION

Helping dogs and their humans thrive, with balanced, personalised training that builds trust, confidence, and real-life results.

Who is pawtential?

Jade Pettett,

Dog Trainer Specialising in Canine Behaviour.

I became dedicated to helping owners and their dogs reach their potential after experiencing behavioural challenges with my own dog, much like most dog trainers. Growing up with and owning high drive working breeds and fell in love, I developed a deep appreciation for well-behaved, fulfilled dogs that are genetically satisfied. My goal is to bridge the communication gap between dogs and their owners, fostering a balanced and enriching life for both.

LET’S WORK TOGETHER

1:1 PRIVATE TRAINING

  • Ideal for less social, nervous and reactive dogs that are needing a calm, controlled environment and space. These fully personalised sessions focus on your dog’s unique behaviour, offering targeted support and real-world results tailored to you both.

    Also tailored towards puppy sessions and general behavioural issues in the home.

  • $145 Per 90 Minute Session

RESET & REBUILD PROGRAM

  • Reset & Rebuild is a fully customised 1:1 training program designed around your dog’s specific behavioural challenges — no cookie-cutter plans here.
    Whether you're dealing with reactivity, overwhelm, or struggles settling at home, we’ll create a step-by-step roadmap tailored to your dog’s needs, your lifestyle, and the pace that feels doable for both of you.

    This isn’t just training — it’s behaviour change, with ongoing support, practical exposure plans, and real-life strategies that actually stick.

  • Pricing varies based on the level of support you’re after — from foundational coaching to high-touch guidance with regular check-ins and updates. After our initial consult, you'll receive a personalised proposal built to suit.

🐾 Who I Help

✅ Owners committed to long-term change, not quick band-aids
✅ People navigating reactivity, anxiety, overarousal, or frustration
✅ Those open to learning and changing how they show up too
✅ Families who want calmer, more connected day-to-day life with their dog
✅ Owners willing to practice in between sessions (even if it's just 10 mins a day!)
✅ People who want a trainer who listens, adjusts, and doesn’t judge

  • 30-minute structured walks designed to improve loose lead walking, reactivity, nervousness and general behaviour. I work one-on-one with your dog to build calm, focused habits. Owners don’t need to be present - perfect for when you’re at work.

  • $60

WALK & TRAIN

🚫 Who I'm Not the Right Fit For

❌ Owners who want someone else to “fix” their dog without changing anything themselves
❌ People chasing quick fixes instead of sustainable progress
❌ Those unwilling to adjust daily habits, environments, or expectations
❌ Owners who aren’t willing to follow through on the work between sessions
❌ People who aren’t ready to show up consistently

Ready to change your dog’s life — and yours too?
Let’s build a calmer, more connected life together.

But see what others are saying...

I had just one session with Jade and the improvements I’ve seen since then have been absolutely incredible. She gave me the right tools and guidance I needed, and knowing I’m using the correct techniques has made such a difference in my confidence and my dog’s behavior. What’s made the experience even better is being able to send Jade videos and updates. she’s so supportive and always helps me make sure I’m on the right track. That ongoing encouragement has really kept me going. I’m so grateful I found her highly recommend to anyone looking for real, lasting results!

Jade is a friendly competent dog trainer whom I requested to help out with some recall problems with our three year old German Shepherd. I was most impressed that she came out to the session prepared with some equipment to assist in achieving the desired outcome.

Since our session, she has competently recalled off of kangaroos and other animals on our property.
I am happy to recommend Jade to anyone needing help with their pets; she obviously has a great love of dogs.

Jade is an absolute game-changer! Before training, walks with my dog were stressful and chaotic. But after just a few sessions with Jade, everything turned around.
She was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and used clear, positive methods that made a huge difference without ever being harsh. My dog now walks calmly by my side, and I actually enjoy our walks again. Jade made the whole experience fun and empowering for both of us.

If you’re dealing with leash pulling or want to build better walking habits, go see Jade at Pawtential Unleashed. She’s amazing!
