“Great first consultation with Coralie. She gave us good beginner training tactics for our puppy and we’re excited to work with her again!”
Shannon W.
“Met Shannon for the first time for a consultation to get some guidance on correctly training my 8w old puppy, she was helpful & provided suggestions! We tried one suggestion & it seems to be working!”
Asher "A.C." A.
“Asher has been walking our young Australian Labradoodle for the past three months. Tigger has been trained already, but at one and a half years he is still very bouncy. I am very impressed by Asher’s ability to keep him in line while giving him opportunities to work of his boundless energy in various dog parks or at the beach. Clearly Asher loves dogs. His approach is firm and yet kind. Sometimes he has three dogs on a walk. It’s impressive to see you he keeps them in line and at the same time gives them a good time. We trust Asher completely with Tigger. And Tigger adores Asher!”
Jatin D.
“Amazing. I was incredibly impressed with his knowledge and his ability to dogs.”
Finnegan J.
“Finn is responsible, knowledgable and passionate about the training he does. I appreciate his mix of professional and personal experience in assessing animal behaviors and recommend him to anyone looking for a trainer who truly cares about and loves what they are doing.”

About: During our consultation, we will figure out which positive reinforcement training method will work best for your pup. As we are doing this, I will be outlining a training plan for you & your pup (which you will get a copy of!) After each lesson with your pup, (if available) I ask all pet parents to join me for a quick briefing to see what their pup has learned. As well as showing them what has been working for them & how to continue after our lesson.

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.
