All my life, I've had a dog and helped train them both. I also had a parakeet named Stinky. I've also house-sat while taking care of dogs and a single cat multiple times. I can handle 1 cat at a time, but any more and my allergies start acting up. I have my own transportation and a personal love of snuggling dogs.

FAQs for finding dog training near you in Kansas City, KS

On average, dog training near you in Kansas City, KS costs $15.00 per hour. That being said, training your dog can range from group classes to individual sessions with a professional and the average cost will depend on various factors, such as where you live, the type of training you receive, home training or board and train, the intensity level and the method used.

Hiring a dog trainer near you in Kansas City, KS is an excellent opportunity to invest in the health and happiness of your furry best friend. A professional animal behavior specialist will be able to customize a training program tailored to you and your pup's lifestyle, from crate training to advanced commands. They have the knowledge needed to train your pup out of any behavioral issues, and to teach them new skills that will help them for years to come.

The rate at which you should visit a professional dog trainer near you in Kansas City, KS depends on the individual needs of your pet and how quickly they progress through their training program. Generally speaking, it is recommended that you visit your trainer at least once every few months or so in order to continue reinforcing their progress. However if you feel your pet is struggling then more frequent visits may be necessary until their skills improve. Some trainers may offer board and train services, which would also impact the amount of time you'd invest in training.

To find good dog trainers or dog obedience classes near you in Kansas City, KS, you can start your search on Care.com. Not only can you sort dog trainer profiles by location and price, but you can read reviews from their current and former customers.
