What the right trainer brings

Experience and craft

  • Experienced with working a wide variety and range of dogs and behavior issues
  • Working your own dog in some capacity
  • Ready and willing to work with a high caliber team, and understand the value of doing so. NO EGO. We mean it. We do what we do because we love helping dogs and their owners; it's about them, not us. We have an incredible team of highly talented and successful trainers, you must be a good addition to that.

How you work

  • Excellent with communication and organization
  • Graduates of Highland K9, TRS, Tarheel Canine, NePoPo, Kennelwood Academy (or schools along those lines)
  • You will need a reliable car, as you will be driving to clients
Perks of the job

You focus on the dogs. We handle the rest.

Clients are pre-screened, marketing and advertising are handled, and you keep the majority of every package you sell — with the goal of getting trainers to 70% as quickly as possible.
