Testimonials

Zoom Room Tacoma was a game-changer for our puppy! We were concerned about her rough play with our older dog, so we started private training and playgroups. The trainers were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. They taught us how to distinguish between aggressive and appropriate dog play, and helped us build confidence in our puppy’s behavior.

Now she’s thriving in weekly doggy daycare and has a new puppy playmate at home. The change in her behavior — and our peace of mind — is incredible. Highly recommend Zoom Room Tacoma for anyone needing dog training, socialization, or playgroups!

Our puppy Poppy has done Puppy Preschool and a few 4-8 month classes and we are loving the experience so far! The staff is extremely helpful and always answers all of our questions! I love their ethos with dog training and would definitely recommend them if you’re looking for dog training!

My 9 month old puppy was out of control when we began our private lessons with Haylie at the Tacoma Zoom Room. I learned a great deal from watching Haylie with my pup. After just one session, my skill improved and that has made all the difference. We have now had three private sessions and the behavior shifts in my pup have been amazing!
