“Tasha was fantastic with my puppy. She’s a stubborn pug and the four sessions with Tasha helped me learn how to communicate with her. My puppy is listening better than ever! The best was the fact that Tasha provided lesson plans for each sessions and ideas for additional activities we could do.”
“Joshua was incredibly respectful, polite, and informative. I can’t wait to work with him and see my puppy flourish with a strong foundation! I'm also really looking forward to applying his behavior modification techniques to our older dogs at home, ensuring a cohesive and well-mannered puppy pack.”
“Kaleigh did a wonderful job working with Murphy! She was patient, kind, and clearly knows her stuff when it comes to dog training. Murphy was excited every time he saw her, and I noticed real improvement in his behavior. She was also great at communicating and gave me helpful tips to keep practicing at home. I'd highly recommend Kaleigh to anyone looking for a reliable, caring trainer!”
About: I'm very patient and understanding of every dog's needs. I'm newly certified so the information learned is modern and fresh. Do have previous training experience with my own pets.
“Crystal was so fantastic with my dog, before she started walking him he had a real problem using his leash and always jumping on people. But after just a few walks with her I saw immediate improvement. He now listens when I tell him not to pull and he doesn't (usually) jump on anyone anymore. I would highly recommend Crystal.”
About: I focus on helping dogs and their owners succeed in real-life situatuons. My goal is to create calm, happy dogs who can thrive at home, on walks, with visitors, and in public spaces, so families can truly enjoy life with their furry companions. Training can strengthen the bond, improve communication, and help keep dogs in their forever homes. I go above and beyond for every dog and every family, offering personalized support, practical tools, and ongoing guidance—not just commands, but understanding
About: I have experience working not only in basic obedience and house manners for companion animals, but a background also in task training service animals, and working with dogs with serious behavioral concerns both in a home, and shelter setting. I believe every dog deserves an individual approach, and that all avenues should be explored (including genetics, potential medical concerns, known history, daily routine, and more!). My goal is to help you and your dog both, and develop communication and understanding between you that lasts long after our final session!
About: What kind of relationship do you want with your dog? Buddy-buddy love love love, militant, or be patient and be their leader? Relationship-based training changes everything.
“Lindsey was a huge help in training my Labrador puppy named Rebel. She trained us in the home, was patient, friendly, and knowledgeable. It was obvious she enjoys working with pets, especially dogs. We learned many standard obedience skills which included hand signals. To this day, we still use these skills! Lindsey was a great trainer for us and I highly recommend her for your furry loved ones.”
“Joseph was patient, polite, and a calming force on my one-year-old doodle. I learned a lot in the first session and have booked him twice a week for the next month. I'm excited to train Sammy properly and recommend using Joseph, who specializes in correcting animal behavior.”

FAQs for Dog Training - Henderson
Frequently asked questions about Rover
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 Henderson 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 Henderson 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 .
