Skylar S.
“Skylar was great. Took Coco out and not only explained what to do but showed me what to do to minimize Coco’s reactivity when in walks. Not for the hard part, implementing what I’ve learned. Will definitely rebook as needed.”
Jaclyn S.
“She is very knowledgeable and clearly passionate about dogs. Our pups love working with her whether for training or boarding. Would recommend her to absolutely anyone.”
Jesus R.
“I recently enrolled my puppy Rocket in Doberman Crew dog training, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very beginning, the trainers showed a deep understanding of dog behavior and tailored their approach specifically to Rocket’s needs. The sessions were well-structured, engaging, and positive, which made learning fun for both Rocket and me. The training focused on potty training and simple puppy rules, and Rocket picked them up quickly. The trainers were patient and clear, helping Rocket understand boundaries and good habits early on. Thanks to their guidance, Rocket is doing great with house manners and basic commands, making life easier and more enjoyable for both of us. I highly recommend Doberman Crew for anyone starting out with a new puppy.”
Jess F.
“Very knowledgeable, helped fill in the gaps of what I needed to help train my puppy. Prompt and very helpful.”
Karen H.
“I have two high-drive dogs, a Border Collie and a German Shepherd. I used her services to watch my dogs. Not only did they fall in love with her, but they listened to all her instructions. She showed me the correct way to handle them. I used to worry so much when we went out of town, now I feel very confident when Mrs K is with our pups.”
Teresa H.
“Teresa was amazing with my puppy. From the very beginning she wanted to be informed of what help I needed. When I picked Taco up, she made a lot of suggestions to help me with continue training Taco. I can see why all the dogs love her so much, she is very warm and caring of her dogs. I highly recommend her if you want to leave your puppy. I felt very comfortable leaving my baby.”
Laura S.
“Laura is great, patient, and knowledgeable. Our dog immediately reacted positively to her training. Highly recommend!”
Jose I.
“Jose is so wonderful! He was great with all of my dogs and was great at communicating to me what all my dogs needed and why. He helped ME learn a lot, too, which has helped me and my crew tremendously!”
Katherine B.
“I met Kate when my puppy, Pippin was just 13 weeks old. I can't tell you how lucky both Pippin and I were! Kate's approach - partnership between person and dog, attentiveness to one another - builds great friendships while also teaching great skills. Pippin has learned all I've asked of him, and with no stress. His whole body wags when he sees "Auntie Kate" every week!”
Taylor H.
“Taylor has an excellent rapport with my dog. He took to her immediately and every training session we’ve learned at least two new things that stay with him after she’s gone.”
Imani O.
About: I do not discriminate against any breed, or aggressive dogs. I have had ten years of experience working with dogs and spent two of them shadowing other trainers and learning what techniques work for me and what does not.
Lei B.
“Lei communicated really well with us and showed a great amount of professionalism and knowledge during our session. Her training plan was tailored for our needs and she took her time to listen to our goals. We will continue to use her services!”
Brad P.
“Brad is a wonderful trainer. He is very patient, both with my pup and me! I am so thankful to his help with leash behavior, addressing issues of separation anxiety and integration of our dog into our multi-cat household. He is very responsive and answers questions thoughtfully. He is a gem!”
Kirk P.
“Kirk was attentive, had great communication, and was professional. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a good dog trainer. I can see the difference in the walk already and I really needed a change of experience with the doggo. Thanks Kirk!”
Lindsay R.
“I was very impressed with Lindsay’s professional dog training knowledge and her ability to bond with Rusty. She gave me some helpful advice and I am looking forward to her training session.”
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.
