Dog trainers: group classes or private sessions

Some dogs thrive in a group class; others need one-to-one work at home first. Offering both lets you match each dog to the right format, as long as owners know which to book. With Book, group classes and private sessions are separate services with their own places and descriptions, and owners book on your own booking page.

On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.

Durations, places and prices are examples. Each place is one dog with its owner.

A first assessment helps you decide whether a dog is ready for a group or needs private work. Say in the group descriptions that an assessment comes first, if that's your rule, and book the next step yourself from your bookings list. First and last name are enough; with their email, the owner gets a confirmation with a calendar file.

Set places to the number of dogs you can manage safely in your space. Each online booking takes one place, and a full class leaves your page. Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until an end date, so a six-week course takes a few minutes to set.

For private sessions at home, include travel in the slot and ask for the address in the note. Group home visits by area on set days. Slots of different services can overlap, so keep private sessions at times when no group runs.

The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email. Ask for the dog's name, breed, age and what the owner wants to work on.

Say in each description what to bring: lead, harness, treats, a mat, water. For group classes, add any vaccination requirement you follow.

Book doesn't take payments, sell course packs, store training notes or send reminders. Owners can't move or cancel online: they contact you. One booking page per business, no staff field: with other trainers, create services per trainer. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
