PAVLOV - Private In Home Dog Training - Denver, CO

Member since Feb 2022

Welcome to Pavlov Dog Training! We train Denver’s most charming family dogs.
Select from two training formats: board and train, or private dog training. Are you looking to upgrade your dog’s manners or resolve a behavior issue? We can help!

Private dog training consists of weekly visits from a certified dog trainer. Your dog trainer will assess your dog’s specific learning style, and compose a training program based on your needs. At the end of each training session, you will receive clearly defined homework.

Board and train may be ideal if you prefer to contract out the lion’s share of work to a professional. Your dog will sleep in a comfortable space and train throughout the day.

PAVLOV’s Training Approach

Pavlov advocates for a healthy hybrid of traditional and contemporary dog training. Some call this balanced dog training. Rude, naughty behavior is directly corrected. Polite behavior is liberally rewarded. Your dog will learn that wise choices are advantageous.

Pet parents in Denver and the surrounding Denver County area, including nearby communities such as Aurora, Arvada, Lakewood, Thornton, Westminster, Centennial, Boulder, Highlands Ranch, Longmont, Castle Rock, often look for a certified dog trainer who can help a dog and their people build a calm, trusting relationship. Trainers like PAVLOV Dog Training 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.

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 PAVLOV Dog Training 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.

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 Denver and throughout Colorado, 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.

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.
