Dog behavior Training Services in Philly & Delco
Is your dog walking you? Destroying your things? Over-reacting to other dogs, people, or animals? Freaking out when you leave the house?
Our motto at Zoomies & Co is real-life training for real-life dogs. We provide in-home dog training in Philadelphia and Delaware County, looking at your actual routines and stress points to build practical skills you can use right away. Our goal is calmer dogs, more confident humans, and everyday life that feels less like crisis management and more like companionship. Our offerings include:
Book a free intro call or our Get Started package to understand what’s going on, start building skills, and make a plan that fits your dog and your life.
Build skills alongside your dog with private, in-home coaching designed for you, your dog, and the people who share their everyday life.
Need extra support? Dog Boost sessions and bundles give your dog focused one-on-one training to build skills and make everyday handling easier for you.
For teams working toward the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test or polishing real-world manners to that standard. We offer prep, coaching, and official CGC evaluations.
Start here
Every dog — and every household — is different. We start by getting to know what’s happening in your real life, what you’d like to change, and what kind of support will actually be useful.
Ready to start training? Our Get Started package includes a 90-minute in-home assessment, a personalized training plan, and a 60-minute follow-up session to practice together, make adjustments, and talk through your options for next steps.
Not sure yet? Book a free intro call first. We can hear a little about what’s going on, answer your questions, and help you decide whether Zoomies sounds like a good fit.
There’s no obligation to keep training after the Get Started sessions. You may leave with everything you need, book occasional Team Training sessions, or choose one of our packages for more ongoing support.

New client? Our Get Started package includes a 90-min in-home assessment and a 60-min follow-up. At the follow-up session, we'll review your custom plan, practice together, and figure out what's next.
Team Training
Team Training is private, in-home coaching for you, your dog, and anyone else involved in their day-to-day life. Linus works with the whole team to build practical skills, troubleshoot challenges, and help everyone feel more confident using the same tools and routines.
Sessions are tailored to what you’re working on right now — whether that’s leash skills, settling, greetings, reactivity, household routines, or something new that popped up since we last saw you. We’ll practice together in the places where you actually need the skills, adjust your training plan as you go, and focus on progress that holds up in real life.
If you know you’ll benefit from a little consistency, our Team Training bundles make it easier to keep momentum going:
-
2-Pack: A couple of full sessions to work through a specific goal or get some extra support.
-
4-Pack: More room to build skills over time, troubleshoot, and practice as things evolve.
-
Team Training Month: Two full sessions plus two focused 30-minute Half Sessions for more frequent practice and feedback between visits.
-
Team Training Plus Month: Want more practice and frequency? Team Training Plus is a more intensive month-long plan with four full sessions and four half sessions. Find Team Training Plus here.
Not sure you need a bundle? You can always book a single Team Training session and take it one step at a time.

Dog Boosts
More hands-on support
Sometimes the hardest part of training is getting enough good practice in to make things easier.
If your dog is difficult to walk, hard to manage when they’re excited, or simply has more energy than you can safely handle right now, it can create a frustrating cycle: you can’t practice enough because handling is hard, and handling gets even harder when your dog isn’t getting enough practice, movement, or stimulation.
Our Dog Boost + Coaching and Dog Boost Intensive plans are designed to help break that cycle within a month.
Trainer Linus works one-on-one with your dog between Team Training sessions, putting in focused repetitions on the skills and routines that will make everyday life more manageable. Then we bring the whole team back together so you can practice what your dog has learned, build your own handling confidence, and keep the progress going at home.
Dog Boost + Coaching offers a moderate dose of extra dog-only training alongside regular coaching.
Dog Boost Intensive provides higher-frequency support when you need to make meaningful progress quickly.
The goal isn’t for your trainer to become the only person who can manage your dog. It’s to get you to a place where you and your family can safely meet your dog’s everyday needs — with lower-cost support like dog walking or daycare where appropriate.

Just need an extra boost?
Not every dog needs a full month-long support plan. Our Dog Boost 2-, 4-, and 6-Packs give existing clients a flexible way to add focused one-on-one training when a particular skill, routine, or stretch of life could use some extra professional practice.
Dog Boosts can be useful for things like leash skills, structured walks, muzzle conditioning, settling, greetings, confidence-building, or getting more safe movement and training into your dog’s week.
Choose a smaller pack for a short-term goal or a larger one when your dog would benefit from more repetition over several weeks.
Because the ultimate goal is for you to be able to use the skills your dog is learning, Dog Boost packs work best alongside Team Training. Linus can help you decide how to space the sessions and when to bring everyone back together to practice.

AKC Evaluation & Training
Linus is a certified American Kennel Club (AKC) Canine Good Citizen (CGC) trainer and evaluator.
Canine Good Citizen is a 10-item test offered by the American Kennel Club as a standard for real-world manners: calm greetings, loose-leash walking, and reliable responses around distractions. Take a look at the CGC test items here. If you're in Philadelphia, Delaware County, or the surrounding area and think your dog is ready for an evaluation, fill out the inquiry form below! We'll work with you to schedule a time and location.
