“Alyson is the only dog trainer you will ever need. She incorporated so many useful training exercises with our dog that proved to be invaluable. She’s incredibly supportive, encouraging, makes herself available in between sessions and is an obvious expert in her field. Our dogs wanted to go home with her! Highly recommend her services.”

“We had a great experience during our dog training consultation with Cassandra. She was so good with our puppies… her calm and kind demeanor immediately put the pups (and us!) at ease. It’s clear she has a natural connection with animals and a thoughtful approach to training. We’re really looking forward to continuing our training with her and feel confident that we are in excellent hands!”

“The consult was thorough and extremely helpful. My dog had abuse in her past and needed help in building her confidence and strategies to do when feeling uncertain around people. Gave great feedback and tips that I can do to help my dog build that confidence and recognized how much we had accomplished in such a short time.”

“Our timid dog Tofu had trouble going outside on walks and would either shut down and lay on the ground or try to get back inside by pulling hard on the leash. Once he even pulled back so hard he slipped out of his harness. After a few sessions of training, Tofu was able to walk properly without pulling and has progressed so much since he first started. Young introduced the martingale collar to us and was very patient with Tofu who has now built up so much confidence and enjoys walking outside.”

About: By the time most people turn to me, I'm often their last hope. I love working on separation & isolation-related distress, fearful dogs, all cat issues, and give me all birds and exotics. I worked for many years as a veterinary assistant and behavior therapist in a board certified veterinary behaviorist clinic, so I've seen it all. And you don't have to have a "problem" pet for us to work together!

Since then she house and puppy sat for us while we took a 10 day trip. We highly recommend working with Chelsea!”

About: I combine professional knowledge with genuine compassion for both dogs and their people.

“Tina has been very thorough and reassuring. She explains the goal and how long the training should take. I was very frustrated before starting and since our training sessions feel like a calmer owner. Ive had my 4 yr old pittie a little over a year and he has some quirks but is also more relaxed now that my commands are more clear.”

FAQs for Dog Training - Beaverton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for dog training in Beaverton on Rover is $78 per session (as of November 2026). All trainers on Rover set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

The price you see before you confirm the booking is the final price you pay for the services. For more information on service fees, click here.

Trainers may recommend the first session to be in your home. Afterwards, where you and your trainer meet may change depending on your training goals.

For example, with obedience training, your trainer may start at home and then move to a park or a store. Sometimes, for specific training needs such as loose leash walking, quiet, low-traffic neighborhood routes around Beaverton can be a starting point. Ultimately, training can happen in many places, which is great for folks who want to raise a confident, social dog.

Each training session is unique and trainers can work with you and your dog's needs. As you evaluate which trainer is the best fit, you can read the "Sessions" section on their profile to get a sense of what the first class may be like.

Most trainers list where the sessions take place, the format or focus of each session, what techniques they'll use, and what materials they'll provide so that you and your dog can continue training between sessions.

If you have any additional questions about what to expect during your first session, ask the trainer during your consultation!

Reward-based training is the style of training that uses proactive management and positive outcomes, rewards, or reinforcements, such as treats, praise, or toys, to encourage dogs to choose desired behaviors. The purpose of this training method is to promote thinking, strengthen behaviors, and improve the relationship between you and your dog.

According to the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior, research shows that reward-based training with an emphasis in positive-reinforcement builds stronger human-animal bonds, reduces anxiety in dogs, and produces more reliable, lasting behavior. Rover is committed to this approach.

The type of credential you want to look for depends on the reason you're looking for a trainer. The most popular credentials on Rover include KPA-CTP, CPDT-KA, CCPDT, Fear-Free™, and Good Pup certification, however there are many qualifying credentials from reputable organizations and institutions that we accept.

You can find each trainer's credentials on their profile under the "More info" section. All trainers must submit their credentials and qualifying educational experience before being listed on Rover.

Every trainer on Rover goes through a multi-step approval process before they can accept bookings:

  • Pass a third-party background check
  • Show proof of education, credentials, or certification in dog training
  • Commit to reward-based training methods

Rover does not support trainers who use aversive tools or punishment-based techniques.

Yes. Many trainers on Rover in the Beaverton area have experience with reactive dogs—including dogs who bark, lunge, or pull on leash—as well as dogs dealing with separation anxiety, fearful behavior, and reactivity in general.

Dense, high-stimulation environments can be especially challenging for reactive dogs, and working with a trainer who understands specific triggers can make a significant difference. You can filter for leash manners, reactivity, or anxiety to find trainers who specialize in addressing these behaviors.

Vaccination requirements are set by individual trainers, not by Rover. Many trainers may ask if your dog is up-to-date on core vaccines such as rabies, distemper, and bordetella.

For in-home or private outdoor sessions, requirements may be more flexible, especially for very young puppies still completing their vaccine series. Always confirm health requirements with your trainer before your first session.

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog training service. Each trainer sets their own cancellation policy and many offer a full refund if you cancel within their cancellation policy. You can find each trainer’s individual policy on their profile under their calendar availability.

Note: If your dog trainer requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.
