Zoe worked with me and my rescue, Maggie! She is attentive and understanding, knowledgeable and caring! -- absolutely take your dogs to these folks.
Zoe came over and showed me how to walk Ruby and it really helped! Thank you for helping our dog to be more trained. She is a happy dog!
We had such a great experience with Misfits Dog Training! Zoe and John worked with our dog Ruby, who used to be very skittish around new people and had a tendency to run off. Thanks to their patience and expertise, she’s now much more obedient and social. We couldn’t be happier with the progress she’s made, and we’re so grateful for their help. Highly recommend!
Zoey came to our house with our newly trained dog Ruby. She was very clear and concise and our dog responded very well to her training, would highly recommend!
