Finally Feel Confident in Your Pet Training & Behavior Career
No more piecing together random advice. The PETPro Mentorship Program for pet trainers helps you implement what you’ve learned with mentorship, community, and the only program built around the Pet Harmony Enrichment Framework.
You Love Helping Animals, But Does Your Training Career Feel Like a Constant Struggle?
Maybe you’re just starting out and feel overwhelmed by all the information out there. Or you’re already working with clients but struggle with follow-through, imposter syndrome, or burnout. Or perhaps you’re trying to build a more stable, profitable business but aren’t sure how to attract the right clients.
You’ve gathered so many puzzle pieces from webinars, continuing ed courses, and podcasts—but you don’t know how to put them together.
PETPro helps you finally see the full picture and apply what you’ve learned in a way that works for you and your clients.
PETPro is Different- Here's Why
Unlike one-size-fits-all programs that throw more theory at you without helping you actually implement it, PETPro is designed to give you real-world support, mentorship, and practical feedback every step of the way.
PETPro is also the only program that teaches the Pet Harmony Enrichment Framework—focusing on what no one else does: emotional processing, conflict navigation, protecting your learning journey, and executive functioning.
We don’t just help you work with animals.
We help you work with people in a way that actually sticks.
What You Get Inside PETPro:
✅ Expert Mentorship – Get direct support and feedback from experienced trainers.
✅ Real Case Reviews – Learn how to troubleshoot and modify plans in real time.
✅ A Judgment-Free Community – No gatekeeping. No ego. Just support.
✅ Business Help (Even If You’re Not Business-Minded!) – Learn how to attract clients, make more money, and create a sustainable career.
✅ Implementation Guidance – Not just theory—actual, actionable strategies to make your training more effective.
A few months later...
"My monthly income has at least doubled since starting the program and has been consistent -- I bought a new frickin car after sharing one with my partner for almost 6 months.”
PETPro Students Go From Feeling Lost to:
Confident in their recommendations and their business.
Clear on how to modify plans for different clients and situations.
Part of a supportive, expert-led community instead of figuring things out alone.
PETPro Success Stories
Kathy Jo Crushed Her CDBC Certification
When Kathy Jo went for her IAABC CDBC certification, she didn’t just pass—she crushed it with a 98% on her case studies and a 96% overall score. She credits PETPro for giving her the skills, structure, and support she needed to succeed. And she’s not alone—Rachel also leaned on PETPro to prepare for certification, calling the mentorship program “instrumental” in her success. PETPro doesn’t just help you study—it helps you apply your knowledge in a way that works for real-world cases.
Elissa Started Her Own Business
Elissa had been working for another company when she decided it was finally time to bet on herself—and launch her own business. She credits PETPro with giving her the confidence to take that leap. Just a few months in, she’s already working with happy clients and even recouped the cost of breaking her non-compete. PETPro didn’t just help her grow her skills—it helped her believe in herself enough to build something of her own.
Sami Transitioned Out of Pet Sitting
When Sami joined PETPro, they were still relying on pet sitting to make ends meet—but their goal was to transition fully into behavior consulting. Just one year later, they’ve done exactly that. With support from the PETPro community and mentorship, Sami built a profitable, sustainable business doing only the work they love. They’ve raised their rates, found stability, and most importantly, feel grounded and confident in their growth.
Thailyr Got Clarity and Confidence in Sessions
Before PETPro, Thailyr sometimes struggled to get the full picture during client intakes. But with the program’s guidance and practice asking more targeted, open-ended questions, she started getting to the root of issues faster—sometimes in just one session. Now, she approaches consultations with confidence and clarity, knowing how to guide conversations that uncover what really matters.
A. Took the First Step Toward Mental Health Support
After a long journey, A. was officially diagnosed with ADHD—an experience she described as both validating and relieving. She credits PETPro with helping her build the self-compassion and self-advocacy she needed to pursue that diagnosis. Because at PETPro, professional growth doesn’t come at the expense of personal well-being—it’s all connected.
K. Found the Support She Needed to Stay in the Field
When K. hit a low point and questioned whether she could stay in the behavior field, it was the PETPro community that helped her through it. With compassionate mentorship and camaraderie from fellow professionals, K. found the resilience she needed to keep going. Now, she’s revisiting the self-care tools she once overlooked—realizing those “softer” self-care modules might be the most important ones of all.
But What If...?
“I don’t have time.”
PETPro actually saves you time by giving you direct, personalized support—no more throwing spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks.
“It’s expensive.”
What’s more expensive? Wasting months (or years) feeling stuck—or getting the right guidance now?
“I’m nervous about working with a mentor.”
We get it! PETPro is designed to be a safe, welcoming space where you can grow at your own pace.
“I don’t really understand what PETPro is.”

Does This Sound Familiar?
you’re in the right place if…
- You feel loney and isolated. We know firsthand how isolating our industry can be. If you’re hungry for mentorship that will help you skip the trial-and-error and a supportive community that relates to exactly what you’re going through, look no further!
- You struggle with uncertainty or imposter syndrome. You’ve got some experience and the continuing education to back you up, but you worry the recommendations you give your clients aren’t quite right. Maybe you can do better… and we can certainly help with that.
- You started this journey to help animals but found yourself with a business you don’t know how to run. Been there, done that! We know your love for animals brought you here. If you don’t know the first thing about running a sustainable business or how to make your business work for you, we’ve got your back.
The Enrichment Framework is the Answer!
MAKE MORE MONEY IN LESS TIME, without the overwhelm
Here’s the real problem: You have all these different puzzle pieces from continuing education but no idea how to put them all together. This results in imposter syndrome and a lack of confidence when you start working with clients. You question if you’re making the right recommendations and if your training plans will be effective at all.
This leads to an unsustainable business framework. You end up not charging enough and doing way too much. You find yourself working harder instead of smarter with no mentor or community to turn to for support
It’s a terrible cycle to fall into and the solution is a true enrichment framework to help you meet the needs of the pets you work with, the people that love them, and you, the professional.
Here’s something many pet professionals get wrong
You Can Incorporate Pet Enrichment Into Your Plans
and Still Fail to Meet You and Your Client's Needs
This comes down to misconceptions about pet enrichment activities.
Enrichment is a powerful tool that offers more than entertainment, variety, or a way to keep your pet busy.
If used strategically, these activities can help you achieve training results faster, make pets happier, and keep pet owners engaged throughout the entire process.
The issue is that most pet professionals aren’t tapping into the true power of pet enrichment.
Most are using enrichment as another step in the plan instead of using it as the plan itself.
if you don’t know how to tap into the power of enrichment…
PETPro Will Help You Put All the Pieces Together
PETPro is a different program than many in our industry. It’s not about adding letters to your name. It’s not about sitting on new information without implementing it. It’s not about adding another tool to your toolbox. It’s about making the most of the tools you already have and building upon the foundation that’s already there.

Be honest, what’s holding you back?
"I Want to Learn How to Become a
Better Pet Professional, But..."
01
there isn’t a clear path forward
This is exactly why we created PETPro! There are lots of options for learning how to become a dog trainer, but for behavior consulting? Not so much. We don’t want anyone to have to take the stressful and circuitous route we took to get to where we are, so we built a program that takes you through all the skill sets required to become a competent, confident, compassionate, and ethical pet behavior consultant–from the ground up.
02
i don’t have time in my busy life
We can relate! That’s why we designed a program that is largely self-paced while also providing ample opportunities for interactive and community learning. Your mentor will also curate the information in the program for you so you can focus solely on what you need to learn. When you want group learning, it’s there for you. But when you need to sneak in a module here and there between other obligations, we’ve also got you covered.
03
i can’t find a mentor near me
No problem! In-person mentors can certainly be helpful when exploring how to become the best pet professional you can be. But this program is designed to give you the ability to get hands-on, real-world practice while working with your mentor remotely.
The best part? Your mentor will curate resources for you so you’re focused on what you need at every step of your journey, nothing more.
04
programs are really expensive
We can empathize with this, too! We are passionate about removing barriers and making information more equitable, accessible, and inclusive. That’s why PETPro is built on a subscription model that allows you the option to reenroll every 6 months and offer scholarships on a limited basis. Scholarship categories include hardship, BIPOC, and GDP-based. Regardless, our goal is to make your business more successful so the program should pay for itself!
Frequently Asked Questions
about the program
We don’t have exact dates yet, but doors will open again in April or May 2025.
Your next step is to inquire about PETPro using one of the buttons on this page. We’ll email you the answers to start the conversation then go from there!
If it seems like PETPro is a good fit for you, we’ll get you signed up for the waitlist.
After you officially join, we’ll send you a celebration email that has some beginning info, a text from our Client Experiences Manager within the next few days, and you’ll be able to immediately access the first part of the program once your paperwork is signed.
Part of your paperwork will include an intake form. That’s where you’ll tell us about how you want to be mentored so we can pair you with the right person. Once we get that we’ll set up your onboarding call and go over everything else there!
Not at all. Enrichment was originally developed in zoos for a wide array of different species. You can apply what you learn in this course to any species you work with, though we do focus primarily on dogs in our recorded content since that applies to the majority of our members. If you work with other species we’ll help you tailor the information to your species!
When you join, you’ll be a PETPro member for 6 months. At the end of that time, we’ll ask if you would like to continue in the program for another 6 months.
This program is different than a course in that there’s no graduation. We’re always learning and growing and this program is designed to adapt and grow with you! You’re welcome to be a PETPro for as long as it benefits you.
If you’re specifically asking about how long it will take to get through the content, that will be dependent on where you are in your learning journey when you join. The content can certainly be gone through in 6 months, but as we all know, an implementation timeline can be a different story!
We’ll ask you if you want to continue learning and growing with PETPro! Most people go through at least 2 rounds of the 6-month membership.
If you’re ready to move on and rock it without us then you’ll be removed from the program content and community. We are constantly updating our program content so it’s only available for active members.
This will depend on where you are in your learning journey. One of the first things we’ll talk about in this program is that the learning process is similar to how young’uns grow. They go through a growth spurt and then stop growing for a little bit in order to fill out and build muscle.
That’s likely how you’ll be going through this program. There will be periods of massive growth and content binging where you’re spending a whole lot of time with us. Then, there will be periods where you’re in the trenches implementing the things and we may not see you for a few weeks.
But, because we know how annoying the age old dog trainer answer of “it depends” can be, let’s say on average 1-3 hours a week.
Mentors are primarily chosen based on space and availability. We want to make sure that you’re paired with someone who has the time to devote to you and your goals!
Scholarships are now available! Click here to learn more about our current scholarship offerings.
Please note that all scholarships currently have a 2-year waitlist.
about the qualifications
Nope. If you already know some training and/or behavior modification techniques and want to be able to use a pet enrichment framework with anyone you work with (i.e. volunteers, fosters, adopters, etc.) then you can benefit from this program.
Well, it depends on how you define “beginner”. This program is helpful for folks who already have tools in their toolbox as we will not be teaching you how to train animals in this program.
That does not mean that you need to currently be someone making money in a pet profession. We’ve met plenty of people who are looking to get into a pet profession who are already quite savvy trainers.
So, you can be anywhere in your career, but you need to already know how to train animals to be successful in PETPro. If you’re not sure if you fit that criteria, schedule a Discovery Call and we’ll help you figure it out. And, if that’s not yet you, come back to us when you’re ready!
We offer that, too 🙂 Our Enhanced Wellbeing Through Enrichment course is specifically how to do everything in PETPro but for pets with maladaptive behaviors.
Once you finish the core PETPro curriculum you will receive access to the Enhanced curriculum. Gotta get those foundation skills in first!
Nope! If you think this program will help your career then schedule a Discovery Call and let’s chat to see if this is the right option for you!
There are several different certifications out there, so the answer is going to be dependent on what certification you’re looking for. In general, even if the course content doesn’t cover everything that’s in a certification, we’ll be able to point you in the right direction for more information and help you feel confident while preparing.
We do offer a program above PETPro specifically for folks who want to work with pets with maladaptive behaviors and that program does include course content on getting certified as a behavior consultant. PETPro is a requirement to join that program.
No, this is a standalone program. Our book is full of theory, studies, and activities. But this program is all about implementation. So as long as you trust that we know what we’re talking about, you can go back at any time and read about the theory in our book.
about the sessions
Whenever you and your mentor agree on! Our mentors work different days and different hours. When you become a PETPro member, we will send you an intake form asking your preferred meeting days and times to better pair you with a mentor that works with your schedule.
Live group weekly sessions are currently scheduled for (all in Central Standard Time):
- Mondays 5-6 pm
- Tuesdays 1:15-2:15 pm
- Wednesdays 1:15-2:15 pm
- Thursdays 1:15-2:15 pm
- Fridays 11-12 pm
We do not recommend attending all group sessions every week! That would likely not be the best use of your time.
There will not be a session in each of these times every single week and special events may happen outside of these times.
If you’re using a Time Zone Converter, we recommend comparing your time zone to “Chicago- Illinois, USA” to account for daylight savings time.
Not a problem! Groups sessions are to help you implement and will not be teaching new content. That means that you can show up when you have questions or need help troubleshooting and won’t be missing anything if you’re not able to attend.
By getting to know you! Our mentors will talk to you, get to know you, your career, your business if you have one, and your goals. From there, they will essentially be developing a training plan on the backend to get you from point A to point B and that includes directing you to the resources you need in the order that you need them. Think about the PETPro curriculum as a library, and your mentor as the librarian pointing you in the right direction.
Yep! You will be able to post questions and get feedback on your current client cases in the PETPro forum. That means that our entire community becomes your sounding board! Please note, however, that this program is not designed for folks working with maladaptive behaviors.
You can also purchase additional coaching sessions with your mentor if you want 1-on-1 case feedback.
