Request an evaluation

Service dog suitability evaluation

This is for you if:

  • You're considering a service dog but aren't sure if it's realistic or if it's right for you


  • You already have a dog and want an honest suitability assessment


  • You want more information before jumping in so you can feel confident about your decision


  • You want professional guidance before investing more time or money

Why start with an evaluation?

Service dog training is a major commitment - emotionally, financially, and practically. Starting with a professional evaluation helps prevent mismatches, burnout, and unrealistic expectations, setting both handler and dog up for success. After a decade of training guide dogs and service dogs, I've found this is the best way to make sure you start this journey off right.

How it works:

  1. Request a Suitability Evaluation (or if you've already started training, a Training Assessment - learn more below)
  2. We will schedule a time to meet either virtually or in person to: 
  3. You will leave with

  • Evaluate your dog's temperament and suitability for service work
  • Discuss your lifestyle and goals to determine if a service dog might be useful
  • Determine a list of tasks to be trained
  • Identify your dog's strengths and areas that might need improvement
  • Discuss the pros and cons of using a service dog to ensure your comfort with your decision to move forward

    3.  You will leave with confidence knowing whether your dog is suitable for the work you need and with next steps to begin your training journey
