I’ve been a dog mom for 7 years, and honestly, I thought I had everything figured out. Then we adopted a high-energy doggo who turned our world upside down. Nothing worked - not the books, not the classes. PawChamp was a last try, and it blew me away. The app felt tailored to my dog’s needs, and the daily lessons were easy to integrate into our schedule. Within a month, she was calmer, listening better, and our household felt peaceful again. What I didn’t expect was how much closer we’d become through the process. PawChamp isn’t just about commands - it’s about connection. For me, that’s priceless.

Hey PH 👋
I’m Mark, building PawChamp together with our doggo-crazy passionate team 🐾
Our mission is simple: help people become better pet parents by making professional dog training and care affordable, accessible, and science-based. Everything we do is rooted in positive reinforcement and modern, humane methods vetted and verified by dog experts.
Why we built PawChamp
As pet parents ourselves, we struggled with the same problem many face: balancing busy lives while raising happy, well-trained dogs. Traditional offline dog trainers are great (we respect their work deeply and create PawChamp with them), but not always affordable or time-convenient for everyone. At the same time, free online content is often scattered and unstructured. PawChamp brings everything together in one place.

We’re still early (v.1.0.0 app launched in Jan 2025), still learning, sometimes still breaking things 😅 - but we’re obsessed with making dog care more effective, accessible & fun for every pet parent.
Now my questions to you:
👉 If you’re a pet parent, I’d love to hear: what’s your biggest challenge in training or raising your dog? 🐶 Drop it in the comments - and feel free to share a photo of your pup too, would love to see them! 🐾
@mark_opanasiuk Congratulations on the launch! Biggest challenge for me was stopping my boy from going up the stairs to a window that looked over the street!!
Looking forward to using the app :)
PawChamp
@theo_crewe_read thank you! share a photo of your doggo - join the flashmob))
@mark_opanasiuk I think my wifi is too slow... lord knows I tried!!
@mark_opanasiuk
There we go. A king in his castle!
@mark_opanasiukThis is awesome! I’ll definitely try it out with Teddy! He’s around 2 years old, we actually adopted him and we are unsure about his story, he’s such a good boy, though patience isn’t always his strong suit when it comes to staying or waiting 😅. But I’m excited to give this a try!
@mark_opanasiuk
That’s such a wonderful mission, Mark! 🐾
As a fellow dog lover, I really appreciate how you combine expert guidance, AI, and positive reinforcement in one place - it solves a real gap between offline training and chaotic online advice.
My biggest challenge as a dog parent is staying consistent with training when life gets busy - especially reinforcing good habits daily.

Happy launch, team! Love the positive reinforcement concept 😻 How are experts vetted and kept current?

@kate_ramakaieva we were very selective when initially started to work on the app. We were lucky to partner with two dog training organisations. One of them was also teaching and training dog experts. They helped us to craft a content - video and text, tune up PawchieAI, make profound onboarding training materials for expanding experts team that work with us.

Seeing Barney’s progress with PawChamp reminds me why I love working on this product ❤️
He’s more focused, listens better and it’s so nice watching him happy.
PawChamp
If he got fingers instead of paws, he'd write to Pawchie directly, without me
