The New Era of Dog Training
Ten years ago, word-of-mouth was enough to keep a dog trainer’s schedule full. Today, that’s changed. The best trainers still rely on referrals but they also have professional websites, optimized Google listings, and social media content that builds trust before the first session ever starts.
At Dirty Paws Marketing, we’ve worked with trainers who went from local recognition to national clients simply by building the right digital foundation.
Why a Website Is Non-Negotiable
Your website is your digital handshake. It tells potential clients who you are, what you specialize in, and why they should trust you with their dog.
A professional site should include:
- A clear description of your training philosophy
- High-quality photos and videos of your work
- Client testimonials and results
- Easy online contact forms or booking tools
Without a website, your clients will go to the next trainer who has one.
SEO: Get Found Where People Search
Most owners search phrases like “dog trainer near me” or “obedience training for German Shepherds.” If your website doesn’t appear in those results, you’re invisible.
We build SEO strategies that get your business ranking on Google, targeting real search terms your future clients are already using.
Social Media Builds Trust Before the Sale
Posting consistent, authentic content, especially video, allows owners to see how you train and the results you get. You’re not just marketing; you’re educating.
We help trainers plan and manage social media so they stay active and professional without losing valuable training time.
