Customer Reviews

Chris did an amazing job with our Oliver. And Chris helped me better understand what was going on with Oliver. My 6lb of fury would just unexpectedly attack us. We adopted him when he was 6yrs and have had him for the past 3, but something happened along the way that brought out this unexpected and unwanted behavior in Oliver. After training w/Chris, he helped us, without provocation, to pinpoint what it could be that brought about this change. During the entire process Chris was patient w/me and Oliver. He taught us each skills and techniques that could bring harmony back into our home. Giving up on my dog was not an option, but it got to the point where he was not enjoyable to be around because of his unpredictable behavior. Yes, I know he's not a pit or even a medium sized dog, but his outbursts were startling & bites are never fun. Thanks to Chris we are enjoying Ollie again and he's enjoying us. He's now attending doggie daycare once a week to keep him socialized and he's doing fantastic ! Thanks so much Chris !

We had an excellent experience with Christopher training our 6 mo. old golden doodle. He Is knowledgeable, patient, and effective in teaching our dog new commands. Our dog's behavior improved significantly in just a few weeks- even my family noticed. We highly recommend their services for anyone needing dog training!!!

- Deanne S

Chris is a superb dog trainer and has helped us tremendously with our two puppies. He is patient, explains the why behind the training philosophy and methods, and demonstrates the methods so that you can apply them appropriately. He has enabled us to have puppies that have grown into well-behaved, disciplined and loving young adults. Through our sessions, we have been able to address problematic behaviors, focus on positive reinforcement, and to properly leash train them which was very important to us. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for training support for their dog and to help you have the type of relationship with your dog that will be fulfilling for both of you.

- Devin G

Chris was amazing with our little dog who has a big personality. He helped us keep the barking under control when our dog is faced with different scenarios. He walks much better, gets along with all family members and our relationship has improved. Chris and his helper Russell are also very cool and pleasant to talk to. Thanks so much for your help!

🐶 Certified Dog Trainers in Greensboro, North Carolina


Pet parents in Greensboro and the surrounding Guilford County area, including nearby communities such as Winston-Salem, High Point, Burlington, Kernersville, Thomasville, Asheboro, Lexington, Reidsville, Graham, Eden, often look for a certified dog trainer who can help a dog and their people build a calm, trusting relationship. Trainers like Christopher Martin focus on positive, science-based methods that fit real life at home and in public. Whether the goal is leash pulling, anxiety, reactivity, or a well-mannered companion, a good trainer shapes each session around the dog’s personality, history, and learning style, so progress feels natural and sustainable.


❤️ Great dog training isn’t just about commands — it’s about connection.


Certified dog trainers work with you as the owner, not only with the dog. They help you read behavior, build clear communication, and set routines that hold up at home and in public. A trainer like Christopher is a coach for both of you.


✅ Training Support for Real-Life Challenges


From everyday manners to more complex behavioral concerns, certified dog trainers in Greensboro commonly help with:


  • Obedience and focus for home and public settings

  • Leash training and more relaxed, enjoyable walks

  • Reducing anxiety, fear, and reactivity

  • Puppy and new dog foundations for long-term success


Sessions should feel encouraging, practical, and easy to carry into your daily routine. The services listed on this profile show what Christopher offers.


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 Christopher Martin is one way to keep training grounded in science, safety, and compassion. Asking about credentials, and confirming them on the profile, is one of the best ways to make a confident choice.


⭐ Why Pet Parents Book Through PetWorks


Booking through PetWorks gives you more than a list of dog trainers in Greensboro. It gives you a clearer way to choose.


A profile like Christopher’s lets you review a local professional, read feedback from other pet parents, and book securely through a trusted platform. Many trainers on PetWorks use force-free, positive reinforcement methods grounded in modern behavioral science.

Finding the right dog trainer starts with trust and fit. On this page you can explore Christopher’s profile, read feedback from pet parents across Guilford County, and either start a booking with "Book Now" or begin a conversation with "Get Custom Quote" or "Send Message".


Training works best when you begin at the right time. For puppies and newly adopted dogs, early training builds strong habits from the start. For older dogs, challenges like leash pulling, anxiety, or reactivity can improve with consistent, professional guidance, and many pet parents notice meaningful progress within a few sessions.


In Greensboro and throughout North Carolina, demand for experienced, force-free dog trainers often rises in spring and early fall, when routines shift and outdoor activity picks up. Booking a bit ahead can help you get a schedule that works.


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 the services on this profile and choose the option that matches your goals.


All payments are processed securely through PetWorks. Every booking also includes PetWorks Care Coverage, with a dedicated concierge team, added protection, and support throughout your experience. Once you connect, you coordinate scheduling, location, and training goals directly with your trainer.


❓ 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 issues like reactivity or anxiety may take ongoing training and consistency at home.


Do dog trainers offer in-home sessions in Greensboro, NC? Many trainers on PetWorks offer in-home sessions, local meetups, or virtual coaching. Check the services on Christopher’s profile, or use Get Custom Quote, to confirm what is available.


Can dog training help with aggressive or reactive behavior? Yes. Positive, science-based training can be very effective for reactivity, fear, and certain forms of aggression. A certified professional helps keep that progress safe and lasting.
