What to expect
Tell the trainer about your home — apartment or villa, lifts, neighbours, other pets — so the plan fits real life in your city.
In summer, many sessions move indoors or to early mornings: lift manners, calm greetings in lobbies and loose-lead walking on short routes are all practical goals for city life.
Dog Training — FAQ
Where is dog training available?
OnlyPaw is available worldwide. Because it's a marketplace, who you can book depends on the providers approved near your address — the app shows who's available before you pay.
How much does dog training cost?
Providers set their own prices in their local currency, so you see each provider's rate before you book. At checkout OnlyPaw adds a service fee of 10% of the service price, with a minimum of USD 2 and a maximum of USD 20 (or the equivalent in your local currency), shown before you pay. Your payment is held and only released to the provider after the service is completed.
How are dog trainers vetted?
Every dog trainer must submit a government ID, a selfie and a training certification, and pass a pet-safety knowledge test with a 70% pass mark. The OnlyPaw team reviews each application — and each additional service — before it goes live.
What kind of dog training can I book in your city?
OnlyPaw trainers offer basic obedience, behaviour correction, puppy training, advanced training and private sessions. When you book, choose a goal — obedience, behaviour issues, socialisation, puppy basics or leash training — so the trainer can prepare.
What if I need to cancel?
One cancellation rule applies to every booking: you get a full refund (including the OnlyPaw service fee) if you cancel at least 24 hours before the start, and no refund after that. If the provider cancels, you always get a full refund.
What happens in an emergency?
Every active booking has an SOS button in the app. It alerts the other party and the OnlyPaw team straight away. If your pet needs urgent medical care, contact a vet or emergency clinic first.
