Angels in the Innfield - Private Dog Training Service - Southington, OH

Member since May 2020

Welcome to my pet training services! With a Certificate in Training and Counseling (CTC) and extensive experience in a variety of training methods, including dog obedience, therapy, and behavior modification, I specialize in creating tailored training plans that cater to your pet's unique needs. Since 2019, I’ve been proudly serving Southington, Ohio, and the surrounding areas, helping dogs of all sizes: from under 20 lbs to over 80 lbs, develop the skills they need to thrive. My approach is both compassionate and effective, utilizing techniques such as leash training, praise/affection, and agility training to ensure your pet not only learns but also enjoys the process.

I believe that the best way to start our journey together is through a personalized meet and greet and a complimentary assessment in the comfort of your home. This allows me to observe your dog’s behavior and understand what they already know, as well as identify areas for improvement. Based on this assessment, I will work with you to develop a customized training plan that fits your dog’s personality and your lifestyle. Plus, I’m fully insured and offer mobile services, so I can come to you wherever you are within my travel radius!

Ready to take the first step towards a well-trained and happy pet? I also offer online sessions for those who prefer the convenience of virtual training. Don’t wait any longer...let’s get started on a happier and more obedient journey together. Book through Petworks today!

Recommended Certifications for Dog Trainers


When choosing a dog trainer, professional certifications are a strong indicator of expertise, experience, and commitment to ethical, science-based methods. Widely recognized credentials include the CPDT-KA or CPDT-KSA from the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers, which demonstrate mastery of modern training techniques, canine behavior, and learning theory. The KPA-CTP (Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner) highlights trainers skilled in positive reinforcement and clicker training, while the IAABC Certified Dog Trainer credential, recognized internationally, signals advanced knowledge in behavior modification and problem-solving. Membership or certification through the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT) further reflects ongoing education and adherence to ethical standards. Many trainers also pursue specialty certifications in areas such as aggression management, behavior modification, or puppy development to address specific challenges.


For pet parents, choosing a certified trainer like Angela Phipps, ensures that your dog’s training is grounded in science, safety, and compassion. Asking about a trainer’s credentials is one of the best ways to make a confident, informed choice.

🦔 How Booking Dog Training in Southington, OH on PetWorks Works


Finding the right dog trainer starts with trust and fit.

Training works best when you begin at the right time. For puppies and newly adopted dogs, early training builds strong habits from the start.

In Southington and throughout Ohio, demand for experienced, force-free dog trainers can increase during the spring and early fall, when routines shift and outdoor activity picks up. Booking a bit in advance can help you secure the schedule that works best for you.


Most dog training sessions across the U.S. typically range from $75–$150 per hour, depending on experience, location, and training type. On PetWorks, you can review available services and choose the option that aligns with your goals.


All payments are processed securely through PetWorks. Every booking also includes PetWorks Care Coverage, giving you access to a dedicated concierge team, added protection, and support throughout your experience. Once you connect, you’ll coordinate scheduling, location, and training goals directly with Angela to get the most out of your sessions.


Dog Training FAQs


How many dog training sessions will I need? Every dog is different, but many pet parents begin to see progress within 2–4 sessions. More complex behavior issues like reactivity or anxiety may require ongoing training and consistency at home.
