“Shalynn has helped me train a St. Bernard and a mastiff to become certified Canine Good Citizens. Each class I’ve been in has had instruction directed specifically towards me and my dog. She observes each dog and owner and their interactions and makes specific suggestions for the owner. She’s very clear that it’s a training partnership between the dog and owner. Shalynn uses only positive correction and comes up with creative solutions for individual issues. I highly recommend Shalynn as a trainer.”

“Emily is a great dog trainer and we had a positive experience with her and lolli loved her. We worked on polite greetings in the home. With help from Emily she was able to stay calm in greeting situations, especially inside the house. We worked with Emily during one on one sessions as well as following through with provided homework to encourage appropriate behavior. Emily also helped us better manager her excited greetings by coming up with an exercise routine as well as enrichment. Lolli and I loved getting to work with Emily and it is fun seeing your dog succeed in training!”

In a world where so many folks are focused on negative punishment that makes you question the comfort of the dog, Sidney is able to effectively get results without using fear or any other negative punishment. She also is always available to answer questions as they pop up, and always makes sure we understand her directions. I highly recommend her for any type of pet training or care!”

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 Mundelein.
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 Mundelein 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.
We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog training service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your trainer’s cancellation policy.
Note: If your dog trainer requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.
