“Asher has provided so much valuable advice for me while I work with my new puppy on her manners. He uses only force-free methods to help not only your dog gain confidence, but also you as a handler. Asher is an extremely talented, creative, and empathetic dog handler that thinks outside of the box to help you work through different behavior concerns. I highly recommend reaching out to Asher for your training needs!”

“Felisha helped me with my 1.5 year old bully pup. She helped with basic training all the way into helping me get her trained to be a medical service animal for my disabilities. She's amazing and very patient.”

About: Each program I offer is personalized to what the dog’s and owners needs and goals are. I offer both in home lessons and public lessons to help solidify obedience in all environments. I have demonstration dogs that aid me in training for distraction purposes. (One of which has passed all levels of the Canine Good Citizen test)

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.
