  • Off Leash K9 Training
  • Richmond, VA

Job Description

Do you love working with dogs and helping families build stronger bonds with their pets? Are you passionate about behavior, obedience, and making a difference in your community? Off Leash K9 Training is hiring a Travel Dog Trainer in the Richmond, VA area to work directly with clients and their pups in the comfort of their own homes.

Position Overview

As a Travel Dog Trainer, you’ll visit clients’ homes to deliver private, 1-on-1 training sessions tailored to their dog’s individual needs. You’ll help dogs of all breeds and sizes become better-behaved companions and empower owners to confidently continue training on their own. Every day is different, and every dog is a new opportunity to make a difference.

What We’re Looking For

  • Must live in or near Richmond, VA
  • Experience with dogs (personal or professional)
  • Strong communication and customer service skills
  • Reliable transportation (you’ll be traveling to clients’ homes)
  • Must own an iPhone (used for scheduling and client communication)
  • Organized, motivated, and able to work independently
  • Comfortable handling dogs with behavioral issues (ex: reactivity, anxiety)
  • Must be available evenings and weekends for client sessions
  • Must pass a background check

Training & Certification (Mandatory)

All new trainers must complete our 21-day, in-person Trainer Academy at our Fredericksburg facility, including weekends. This immersive program is designed to fully prepare you to work confidently and professionally using Off Leash K9’s trusted techniques and training systems. You’ll learn directly from our experienced training team through structured lessons, hands-on experience with dogs, and real-world practice.

This is not a self-paced or virtual course—it’s an intensive in-person training that ensures you leave ready to work with both dogs and their owners immediately.

Schedule Details

  • Lessons are 1 hour long and conducted in the client’s home
  • You’ll manage your own schedule and client communication
  • Must be available during peak training times (especially evenings & weekends)

Compensation & Perks

  • Potential Earnings of $40,000–$50,000/year, with potential to grow
  • Weekly Fuel Allowance
  • Work-from-home when not training
  • Join a nationally recognized, fast-growing training brand with built-in support

We can’t wait to meet you—and neither can the dogs of Richmond! 🐾🐕‍🦺🦴
