HOW IT WORKS

From First Call to a Service Dog You Can Count On

01

The Free Call

Tell us about your dog and what you need help with day to day. We'll tell you straight whether this program is the right fit. Your dog needs to be at least 2 years old, since younger dogs need time to mature first.

Tasks Built Around You

Under the ADA, a service dog has to be trained to do work or perform tasks directly related to your disability. Mark builds the plan around the tasks you need and the way you actually live.

Out in Public, Together

Once your dog is solid at home, training moves to the places you actually go, like the grocery store and the doctor's office. Arizona law lets you bring a service dog in training into public places to train, so Mark coaches you on the spot.

WHY TRAIN YOUR OWN DOG

The Law Doesn't Require a Program Dog. It Requires a Trained One.

Keep the Dog You Already Have

Many service dog organizations have waitlists that run for years. If your dog has the right temperament, you can start now with the one already by your side.

    I cannot say enough positive things about At Your Home Dog Training. Our dog Nigel was so reactive around strangers and family, barking uncontrollably. Mark gave us the tools to change that behavior completely. If you're willing to put in the work, this program works.

    Mark is a gifted trainer who's helped tremendously with my 155lb Leonberger, Samson. Training at home addresses real, everyday behaviors like barking at the door and leash reactivity, and he's training us just as much as the dog. I recommend him without reservation.

    Our dog Molly wouldn't let us leash her, pick her up, or come when called. After just over a month with Mark, she's overcome her fears and we now enjoy walks and outings together. He's patient and made training feel effortless. Highly recommend.

    Mark is absolutely AMAZING. I called in desperation about our Drako, 8 months old and already 130lbs. His behavior has improved tremendously, and Mark taught us everything we needed to know. They still check in regularly. I'd recommend him to anyone. Thank you Mark and Taylor!

    Adopting my rescue Oscar felt overwhelming, but Mark made it so approachable. Getting one-on-one, in-home attention is an amazing way to learn. In just eight weeks Oscar's whining decreased significantly and he's so much more relaxed. Absolutely worth every penny!

    It's been such a great experience working with Mark. We learn new techniques and grow more confident with our puppy every session, and he's always available for questions when unusual situations come up. Very happy and looking forward to continuing.

    Mark was absolutely amazing, 10/10 recommend! In just four weeks our dog wasn't just behaving well and leash trained, he was doing fun tricks too. Months later, everyone is still impressed with how well-behaved he is. Thank you so much, Mark!

    Mark was a huge help getting my blue heeler trained. She used to pull on the leash, ignore commands, and get overexcited with guests, now she does none of that. The drills he gave me to practice worked amazingly. We can even take her to restaurants now.

    Thank you, Mark, for helping my three dogs, Ruby, Rosie, and Ricky. Ruby, once a stray, is finally settling into life as a house dog, Rosie no longer has accidents in the car, and Ricky has learned to obey 'quiet.' They're such a joy to be around now.
