Welcome to The EveryDay K9 Training Course — your complete guide to becoming a confident, capable, and trusted member of our team.
This course is designed to walk you through everything you need to know to succeed in your role, from daily responsibilities to our deeper company values.
You'll learn how to manage pack walks, safely care for dogs in both home and facility settings, communicate effectively with clients, and uphold the premium service standards we’re known for.
We'll cover how to use tools like Jobber for scheduling and task management, the importance of detailed client updates, how to maintain a clean and safe environment (whether it’s your car, the facility, or the field), and even break down how taxes work as an independent contractor.
But more than just logistics, this course emphasizes what we value most: being a "Good Human." That means showing up for the dogs, for the clients, and for each other with intention, accountability, and care.
Everything we do is connected — and by the end of this course, you’ll see how each small action creates big trust, long-term success, and a team you’re proud to be part of. Let’s get started.
