Popular Baltimore dog trainers
“Our first consultation for training was great. Cheyenne was very clear in explaining things to me and I’m looking forward to getting Toby and myself on the right track.”
About: I do not discriminate against any breed, or aggressive dogs. I have had ten years of experience working with dogs and spent two of them shadowing other trainers and learning what techniques work for me and what does not.
“Brad is a wonderful trainer. He is very patient, both with my pup and me! I am so thankful to his help with leash behavior, addressing issues of separation anxiety and integration of our dog into our multi-cat household. He is very responsive and answers questions thoughtfully. He is a gem!”
About: I work with both dogs and cats, combining training, holistic wellbeing, cognitive enrichment, and relaxation support to help pets and their people thrive. I help families better understand body language and behavior, while recognizing individual needs, offering choices, and supporting agency. My goal is to build confidence, trust, and stronger relationships through practical, compassionate guidance.
“My experience with Anneli was wonderful. I appreciate her positive training methods with my dog and how easy she made communicating for people. No training will work if the trainer can’t teach people along with the dog. I whole heartedly recommend Anneli.”
About: I have group experience and experience working with reactive dogs. I love working with families as I am a teacher and can help the whole family improve your pup’s behavior. As a KPA-CTP I am completely, 100% positive reinforcement.
“I was very impressed with Lindsay’s professional dog training knowledge and her ability to bond with Rusty. She gave me some helpful advice and I am looking forward to her training session.”
“Tommy has been a Godsend to me. I thought that maybe I was just too old to have a young dog, but he showed me how to work with Gunnar in the simplest way that has totally changed our lives. The difference in our walks is nothing short of amazing, but the impact is felt in the home too. He is always available for questions and support, and I love watching his videos for reminders, tips and tricks. I would and do recommend training with Tommy to everyone. My daughter-in-law took his classes and was equally thrilled. Most importantly, Gunnar loves and trust Tommy too!”
About: I believe every person and every pet is different. What works for one pet and family may not work for another. I also believe in addressing root causes and understanding how pets communicate.
“Hannah is great! She taught Maddie and I a bunch of things in our first session and was very patient with both of us. I'll definitely be doing future sessions with her!”
“Beatrix is the most important member of our team, Max, the pup, me and Beatrix. After Max broke his leg at 12 weeks, I faced intense performance anxiety. Enter patient, kind and knowledgeable Beatrix. Her deep love for pets and expertise in their development were critical to our training. Our sessions were always safe, fun, and positive.”
“Nichole was fantastic with my little man! A friend referred me to her and told me to give virtual training a try and now I won’t go back to in person. She was extremely knowledgeable and we immediately felt comfortable working with her. Definitely recommend if you need a trainer and you don’t even have to leave the house!”
“I was really disappointed with my experience. I paid $93 for a consultation that could have easily been done over the phone. During the session, the trainer didn’t even interact with my dog and basically just asked me questions from a pre-filled questionnaire. At the end, I was given two training plans that felt generic and AI-generated, rather than personalized to my dog. Overall, I felt like I didn’t get the value I expected and would not recommend this service.”
“Taylor has an excellent rapport with my dog. He took to her immediately and every training session we’ve learned at least two new things that stay with him after she’s gone.”
About: I consider environmental factors and enrichment-focused solutions to help training last! I also specialize in solutions for busy people who need solutions that work for them!
“I can't say enough good things about Connor. He’s super patient, incredibly knowledgeable about dog behavior, and just genuinely cares about my dog Milo. You can tell right away that he wanted my dog to feel safe and actually have fun during training. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy to help with your dog, you’d be so lucky to work with him!”
“Kirk was attentive, had great communication, and was professional. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a good dog trainer. I can see the difference in the walk already and I really needed a change of experience with the doggo. Thanks Kirk!”

Dog Training FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
Trainers listing on Rover must be credentialed dog trainers, commit to reward-based training methods, and pass a background check to offer dog training in Baltimore.
Reward-based training encourages dogs to offer desired behaviors by reinforcing the behavior with something the dog likes; treats, play, or toys. Reward-based training prioritizes using the least intrusive intervention; it promotes thinking rather than punishing mistakes.
When rewards are used, the likelihood the behavior is repeated increases. The positive connection to the reward results in making learning enjoyable, strengthens the human animal bond and over time leads to consistent desired behaviors.
Training can happen many places — your home, a park, a store, or anywhere else that you and your trainer decide is best for the training you are doing! Many trainers will recommend training in your home. This allows them to observe your dog in their natural environment so they can effectively assess and best help reach your training goals.
Trainers will often mention on their profile where they typically hold training sessions, but you can always contact a trainer to learn more!
Rover makes it easy to find Baltimore dog trainers to provide loving care from their own home. The background-checked, 5-star trainers you can find on Rover will work with you and your dog to build new skills and address behaviors. Dog trainers can work on:
- Puppy training, adult dog training, agility training, clicker training and advanced training.
- Behaviors such as barking, leash manners, leash reactivity, house manners, jumping, fearful behavior, anxious behavior, separation distress, recall, biting, chewing, mouthiness, potty training and resource guarding.
Of course! Having a trainer that is the right fit for both you and your pup is an important step to reaching your training goals. We recommend reaching out to any trainer that interests you. Your initial request is not final until both you and the trainer decide you want to move forward with booking.
Also, trainers may offer or require consultations. Make sure to ask trainers so you can make the best decision for you and your pet.
Many trainers on Rover indicate experience in a wide range of behaviors, from puppy training to more advanced behaviors and training types.
Review a trainer’s profile to see if their experience aligns with your needs, and if you have questions, don’t hesitate to contact them to ensure they’re the right trainer for you and your pet.
