Lisa H.
“Lisa was so insightful even from the first call we had to discuss training for my reactive mini dachshund. After one session I already feel more confident in how to manage my dog’s reactions. I definitely will be setting up further sessions.”
Anna "Anya" W.
“Anya has been amazing! I’ve worked with 3 different trainers with little success. But She has been so patient with both of my dogs and I’ve already seen a difference in them. She is full of tips, advice, and videos to help guide you through all of it.”
Alysia W.
“Alysia is clearly very very good with dogs (and stressed out owners). She was thoughtful and thorough and offered multiple options for how to move forward. I am looking forward to her continued help.”

Devin B.
“We've been working with Devin in training our two dogs for the last few years. Devin's care and attention has greatly and positively impacted the way we interact with our dogs. From helping us deal with one of our dog's anxieties and the other's reactivity, Devin has changed our lives and our dogs' lives for the better. I would recommend Devin as a responsible dog trainer to everyone looking for a compassionate, patient, and endlessly caring guide to help them build a stronger bond with their furry companions.”
Samantha C.
“I can't thank Sami enough for get patience and willingness to train my Bichon. He went from jumping on countertops and tables with no manners to walking nicely and being so proper and quiet. I learned so much from her and her trainings. Sami brought peace to our home when we were at our wits end. I can't recommend Sami enough!”
Amy K.
“Amy has provided invaluable assistance in potty training my five year old dog. She did a board and train with him and taught me how to continue his training. He's doing great!!”
Randi B.
“Randi did great with the training of Daisy. She was very knowledgeable, really took her time and is obviously very passionate about her work.”
Amanda C.
“Amanda is AMAZING! She really knows what she’s doing, even with my trauma fur baby, who needs a special kind of attention. Amanda was flexible for the consultation, came to our home, gave great information during her visit, and followed up with a well written and organized training plan. With a traumatized rescue and a broken leg, I was panicking about Rosa’s progress. We are so grateful to have found Amanda! And are so excited to see her progress :)”

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.
