FAQs

One of our trainers will visit your home to meet you and your dog and discuss any issues you're facing. We will then demonstrate one of our model dogs so you can see what you can expect after hiring our trainers. From there, we will discuss the various packages we offer and which we feel best suit your (and your dog's) needs.
We provide full obedience training that covers all basic commands, both on and off-leash. Our in-home visits target specific issues like counter-surfing, digging, and more. Unlike some trainers, we work with all breeds, including those often considered challenging.
Yes. You (and anyone in your family who wants to be involved) are integral to your dog getting trained. We need you to practice 5-6 days a week, about 15-20 minutes a day for optimal results.
Once a week. We come to you (with the silver, gold and platinum packages) once a week to start your dog off, then you come to park sessions which are held once a week in Worcester.
We train dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether your dog is a tiny Chihuahua or a large Mastiff, we have the experience and expertise to work with them.

    We just had our free consultation done and Marcus was great. He was very calm and collected when meeting our pups, answered all of our questions in a way that we could understand, and after his live demo with his pup we knew it was worth the investment.

    Patrick came and did assessment of our dog and took time to listen to us and hear what we wanted to do with training for our almost 1 year old dog. i feel so relieved and happy that we will learn (and out dog) how to handle any situation with ease.

    I want to express my sincere thanks to Barbara, Mark, and Marcus at Elite Dog Training for their incredible work. Training a pitbull was a big challenge for me and my family, but with their guidance and the tools they provided, our dog has come a long way. We now feel much more confident in continuing the training on our own. Their patience, expertise, and encouragement were exactly what we needed. I highly recommend Barbara, Mark, Marcus, and the Elite Dog Training team to anyone looking for professional help with their dog!

    We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Marcus! He is incredibly knowledgeable and patient, which has made all the difference in our dog’s training. Marcus takes the time to really understand both the dog and the owner, ensuring that the training is tailored and effective. His calm demeanor and expertise have not only helped our dog learn quickly but have helped how we speak and interact with our dog to make the training more successful and the whole process enjoyable. We highly recommend Marcus to anyone looking for a trainer who truly knows what they’re doing and goes above and beyond for their clients.

    We had our assessment today and it went great! Marcus was wonderful. I have confidence we will gain lots from training. Had our 1st class today with Matt K. He is very knowledgeable and is way to work with. Looking forward to more! Had our 2nd class today with Tiffany. We are all learning a lot and I believe I will have a better behaved and happier dog. Looking forward to next week.

    This therapy dog training program is nothing short of amazing! My dog, who used to be reactive and easily dysregulated, has completely transformed into a calm, confident therapy dog. The trainers were incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and supportive, working closely with us every step of the way. Their approach is both compassionate and effective, focusing on understanding the dog’s needs and behaviors rather than just correction. The positive reinforcement techniques they taught us made a world of difference, and I saw progress from the very first session. The skills and confidence my dog has gained are truly remarkable. I highly recommend this program to anyone looking to turn their dog into a therapy dog or even just improve their dog’s behavior. It’s been a life-changing experience for both of us! Five stars all the way!

At Dog Training Elite Worcester, we believe in-home dog training is the most effective way to address your dog’s needs. Unlike traditional obedience schools, which often provide a one-size-fits-all approach, in-home training allows our team to observe and address your dog’s behavioral issues within the environment they naturally occur.

For instance, if your dog has a habit of barking at the mailman or chasing the neighbor’s cat, our trainers can work directly with your dog in those exact situations. This personalized approach ensures we target the root of the behavior, making it easier for your dog to understand and follow commands.

In-home training minimizes distractions and allows your dog to focus better on learning. By starting in the home and gradually introducing group lessons, our program helps your dog retain commands and respond accordingly to their surroundings.

Benefits of Positive In-Home Training Techniques

Read More
Read Less
  • Develop a Strong Bond
  • Dogs thrive in training sessions when they are with their loved ones. Learning commands is a way for your dog to connect with you, and your praise and treats make the experience enjoyable and strengthen your bond.

    Sending your dog to obedience school separates you from the training process, missing out on this important connection. At Dog Training Elite, we involve you and your family in every in-home training session. Our trainers focus on teaching you how to train your dog and enhance your bonding experience.

  • Quickly Teach Obedience
  • Obedience commands are crucial for any comprehensive dog training program. They ensure your dog’s safety and prevent unwanted behaviors. At the core of successful training, these commands must be mastered before progressing.

    Our in-home training program emphasizes foundational obedience, teaching essential commands like sit, down, come, and drop it. Once these basics are solidified, our trainers will guide you and your dog through more advanced skills.

  • Correct Problem Behaviors
  • If your dog jumps on guests, charges the door when the bell rings, or begs at the table, these issues can be effectively corrected with the right training techniques.

    Group classes or basic training programs often overlook these specific problem behaviors, which usually occur in your dog's familiar home environment. Bringing a trusted trainer into your home ensures these behaviors are addressed in the context where they happen, leading to more effective solutions.
