Christopher R.
“We had a phenomenal experience working with Chris and will be reaching out to him again for any dog training needs in the future! We have a 5 year old cavapoo (male) who had some minor behavioral concerns. Chris brought his vast knowledge/experience into our home and the changes we saw in our dog have been amazing. His training techniques/strategies were extremely helpful and we continue to use/reinforce them as owners. We would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for a dog trainer!”

“I had a great experience with Roderick! Even on the first day, my dog already showed noticeable improvements. She’s not pulling as much on walks and is becoming more obedient. Roderick was patient, knowledgeable, and explained everything so I could keep up the training at home. Highly recommend!”
henry j.
“He did an amazing job with my French Bulldog, Jeter. Anytime someone asks how Jeter is so well-behaved, I always recommend him without hesitation. He’s officially my go-to dog trainer on Long Island.”
Shar K.
“After one consultation, it’s clear that Shar is a talented trainer. From the moment Shar walked into our home, our 11 week old puppy’s attention was fully engaged, and within 1.5 hours, he showed us that he is more than capable of learning multiple cues, even at his very young age. Shar also taught us behaviors that we should avoid in order to assist our puppy with his training. We definitely recommend Shar to anyone who is interested in training their pup!”

FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Dog Training on Rover
To list on Rover, trainers must:
Pass a third-party background check
Show proof of education or certification in dog training
Commit to rewards-based training
Rewards-based training encourages dogs to offer desired behaviors by reinforcing the behavior with something the dog likes, including treats, play, or toys. Rewards-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!
No problem! When you initially contact a trainer, you will be prompted to select a proposed first session date — this is not final, and is confirmed only if both parties decide to move forward. We also recommend contacting multiple trainers to make sure you find a trainer that is the right fit for you and your pet.
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.
