Excellent communication and client-coaching skills
Reliability, professionalism, and strong time management skills
CPDT-KA, CDBC, or similar certification is preferred
Candidates who are not currently certified should be willing to sit for an appropriate certification exam during the next offered testing period

Peach on a Leash is a positive reinforcement-based, LIMA-aligned training company. We do not use e-collars, prong collars, choke chains, leash corrections, intimidation, or similar tools in any of our programs.

Applicants should either already have experience with reward-based training methods or be fully committed to learning and practicing within that framework.

Ideal Candidate

The right candidate is compassionate, professional, and passionate about helping dogs and their people live more peacefully together. They should be able to explain training concepts clearly to everyday pet owners, create practical and realistic training plans, and handle client relationships with patience and confidence.

We are looking for someone who values dog welfare, client education, teamwork, and continued growth in the field of modern dog training.
