Featured places your business in a highlighted section at the top of the city pages you choose, where owners start looking. You’re also featured on those cities’ specialism pages and on your state page.
Your profile gets up to 10 photos and a video, and no list of other trainers. Your free listing stays free, and Featured never changes your Bark Score or where you rank.
$19 a month for one city. No setup fee, cancel any time, and a 14-day money-back promise.
Here’s exactly where a Featured listing shows, and what changes on your profile. Everything goes live within a day of your payment. The business in these pictures is an example, and Austin is just a sample city: yours will show your own name, city and details.
On each city page you choose, your listing sits in a sunshine-yellow “Featured dog trainers” section at the top, above the ranked list. It’s where owners start looking when they search for a dog trainer in their city and land on the page.
Free listing: your place in the ranked list below.
Owners often search for exactly what they need, like reactive dog trainers or puppy training in their city. You’re featured on those pages too, in each of your cities, for every specialism your listing covers.
Free listing: your place in each specialism list.
Your state page has its own Featured section, for owners searching across the whole state. It shows three featured trainers from around the state at a time, in a new order each time someone opens the page, so every featured trainer is seen.
Free listing: in the state list and its filters.
Featured profiles show up to 10 photos and a video: your classes, your training space and the dogs you work with (with their owners’ permission). And they leave out the list of other trainers in your city, so owners who open your profile stay with you.
Free listing: no photos or video, and a list of other trainers in your city.
Alongside your free Bark Score badge, you can put a “Featured” badge on your own website. Both link back to your city page, so the owners who already trust you can see you’re listed and how you score.
Free listing: the Bark Score badge.

If you also train over video and your Bark Score is Silver Rated or better, Premium includes a place in the Barklopedia online trainer network, which matches you with owners anywhere in the US once it opens. It’s usually a separate monthly fee.
Free listing: you show in the online finder, ranked by Bark Score, with your website and booking link.
Dog owners look for trainers in two places now: Google, and AI tools like ChatGPT. Barklopedia shows up in both. Our pages appear in Google searches for dog trainers in towns and cities across the US, and trainer profiles come up when someone searches for a business by name.
AI tools answer those questions from pages like ours. Ask ChatGPT for the best dog trainers in Texas, and Barklopedia is part of the answer.
Where any page shows changes from week to week, and nobody can buy a place in Google or ChatGPT. What matters is that this is where owners are searching, and a Barklopedia listing puts you in front of them. Your free listing already puts you there. Featured puts you at the top of the city pages owners land on.
Everything that makes your listing trustworthy stays free. Featured adds the things that help owners notice you and get to know you.

No. If we don’t list you yet, tell us in the form and we’ll build your free listing first, with your Bark Score, then add Featured on top. If you’d like to start with the free listing on its own, use our Get listed form.
LocaliQ’s 2026 search advertising benchmarks put the average cost of one ad click for animal and pet businesses at $4.06. So $19 a month costs less than five ad clicks, and your Featured spot stays at the top of your city page all month, however many owners see it.
No. The Bark Score comes from your reputation, training methods, credentials and services, and nobody can pay for a higher score or a higher place. Featured is a separate, labelled section above the list.
Any city we have a page for in the area you serve. Tell us in the form, or leave it blank and we’ll suggest the cities nearest your business. You’re featured on that city’s specialism pages too, for every specialism your listing covers. You can swap cities later at no cost, as long as the number stays the same.
We reply by email with the city pages we’d put you on, the price and a secure payment link. Your placement goes live within a day of payment.
No. There’s no setup fee and no contract, and you can cancel any time: your placement stays until the end of the period you paid for. Not happy in the first 14 days? Tell us and we’ll refund that payment in full.
Yes. The first 20 featured trainers keep the price they joined at for as long as they stay featured.
Your free listing stays exactly where it is, with your Bark Score and reviews. The Featured sections, the Featured badge, your photos and your video come off, and your profile shows other trainers in your city again.
Reply to our email with up to 10 photos and a YouTube or Vimeo link, and we add them for you. Please only send photos you took or have permission to use, and ask owners before showing their dogs.
No. Owners contact you or go to your own website. We never handle bookings, and the monthly price is all you pay.
Featured is for city pages. If you train over video and your Bark Score is Silver Rated or better, Premium includes a place in the Barklopedia online trainer network, which matches you with owners anywhere in the US once it opens. On Plus or Pro, you can join the network separately.
Free profiles keep to the facts owners compare trainers on: your Bark Score, how you train, your services and what members say. Photos and a video are part of Featured, and they come off again if you stop.
Fill this in and we’ll reply by email with the city pages we’d suggest, the price and a payment link. Nothing to pay now.
