Zoom Room Dog Training

Great place that me and my dog always love coming to. I am always surprised by the things they teach us and they make it easy to understand. Everyone here has been really friendly, welcoming, and talented dog trainers. They also have a bunch of cool dog supplies. I have nothing bad to say about this place.

Zoom Room is AMAZING! This is my second time at Zoom Room. Both Mel and Lisa are welcoming.
This time I came to attend a Dog CPR/​First Aid class which was very helpful in dealing with common emergencies. It covered situations such as poison ingestion, over heating, broken leg, and insect bites.
Zoom Room provides dog training classes. The training sessions are fun and comprehensive. Zoom Room makes it possible for lay persons to train their pets.
Zoom Room also has a variety of products not found in pet stores. It has items that are designed to stimulate cebreral activity.

Love this place, and so does our little rescue Cricket!
Front staff are all easy to work with, and super friendly. The trainers (I’ve mainly worked with Mel, Liz and Blaine) are awesome (!) and are all about positive reinforcement, which is the only appropriate way to train a pet dog. It’s also a large well put together indoor training area, which is perfect for the hot summers, windy/​wet winters, or specifically with my little girl, her grass/​tree allergies…
Cricket and I had done some basic training before, so our first meeting was a 30 mins evaluation. They asked a lot of pertinent questions and then placed me appropriately. I also appreciate that they are up to date on vaccine protocols, as I find most places don’t even ask for all vaccines anymore.
This place also works on level type training, which works well for people that don’t have set schedules. How it works is you buy packs of classes, and then you use them according to your own schedule. If you want to do three classes this week you can, if you want to do one you can, if you can’t make any this week, than you just keep them (they don’t expire), and then use it another time. It makes it easier, compared to other training facilities where you have to be there at a set time every week for 10 weeks — this is much more flexible. Once you have passed the pre-​requisites for that class, than you move on to the next level! So everything is at your own pup’s speed and your schedule.
We do mainly agility and private gym, and are planning to do the scent work shop as well, once it fits into our schedule. The camaraderie between the trainers and owners is great, and every time we attend a class, Cricket has the best time, and best of all — she comes home a tired happy dog!
I recommend this place to anyone looking for a positive dog training experience in the South Bay!

I was very excited to bring my dog here. I called and purchased two sessions with a 30 minute personal training session. Upon arrival, I waited 15 minutes for a trainer (no problem)… When I met with the trainer, she handed me a clicker, explained how the clicker training worked and literally within 5 minutes the private lesson was complete. I asked about the remains 25 minutes and was told, sorry this is it. I then asked if I could let my dog try the obstacles and was told no, sorry… I didn’t even bother using the two group training sessions… Wasted money.

My cocker spaniel, Andros, and I have been training here for a month. The trainers use only positive reinforcement, individualize training to the level appropriate to each dog (and each person :)), and maintain a patient and responsive approach both in and out of class. Andros just started Obedience 2, and I’m excited for his continued growth!

I’ve been to eight classes so far and my dog and I have learned so much at the Zoom Room. If you’re looking for a great place, with great people DEFINITELY go here. They are extremely helpful. My dog is a rescue and they’ve helped us through many different issues as well as the basics. They have lots of different levels of classes, including tricks and agility as well as levels 1, 2 and 3 for basic skills.

This Zoom Room is located in a complex with a 99 cent store. There’s a parking lot but parking is not the easiest to find depending on the time of day and the parking lot is really busy. If you have a dog that’s afraid of cars, beware.
I have always loved Zoom Room as a concept. They were the ones that got me and my pup into agility. My dog was trained at another Zoom Room before they closed down and I’ve been searching for a place to train my pup on my own without having to drive too far. Well, I never found it so I’m making the 1 hour drive down here.
I only come for private gym time so I can’t speak for the training and trainers. What I can say though is that the people here are really nice and the facility is awesome. The training space is huge for an indoor facility and the flooring is pretty decent. It’s got good grip and while it’s not as cushioned as I would like, it at least has some cushion to it.
When I first came to this Zoom Room, the owner was walking around and introduced himself and sat down and spoke with us a bit. This was a very nice touch and it seemed that everyone that I interacted with that day was very friendly. I came back again this week to do some training with my new dog on my own and sure enough the employee that was there was friendly as can be. Customer service is fantastic and overall the environment is great and I’d come back whenever I have the time to make the drive as I live over an hour away in traffic.
I noticed that they don’t offer Agility 4 here and if they had Agility 4 and I could time that to stay for half an hour to an hour for private gym afterwards, I might take classes for fun. As it is though, I’ll just keep enjoying my private gym time for drills and criteria.
I wish they had more private gym time slots open on the weekends, it looks like they only have 3 slots every Saturday in the afternoon and that’s it. Those also fill up very fast.

This is a neat place but if your looking for training for a rescue dog. RUN! This was the biggest waste of time and money. I spent a whole month with not a single result. None of my issues where ever addressed. I mentioned that I wanted to socialize my dog since it seemed like she didn’t have good social skills. It wasn’t until my LAST class that she tells me to buy ANOTHER package so that she could bring her personal dog in to see how my dog does. I was very disappointed. It was such a waste of my money.

Great customer service from desk staff and the training coaches are really helpful. Every effort is made to make this experience a positive one for both trainer and dog.

Me, my boyfriend and our pup Charlie all love the Zoom Room! When we got Charlie six weeks ago, I knew I wanted to find a good positive reinforcement/​basic training course for him to take so we could turn him into a model canine. Zoom Room totally fits the bill.
They offer a starter pack of two classes/​an intro session for $ 35, which was a great way to decide if we wanted to buy more classes. I noticed improvements in Charlie’s sit/​down and response to his name after class 2, which was a pretty awesome feeling.
All the staff (trainers and people behind the desk) are super nice and encouraging. High fives and smiles all around. The other dogs and people in the class are pretty well behaved and seem like nice folks.
My one (teeny tiny) complaint is that I wish the classes were a little smaller, especially for obedience 1. The trainer gets around the room as quick as they can, but more feedback/​one-​on-​one time would be fantastic.

My dog loves this place! Everyone is very helpful and patient. I do 2 classes a week but I wish I could do more. They cater to the dogs and their owners.

What a great place… clean, super professional staff and my doggy is so happy when we go! I have been meaning to leave a review of this place for a while now but just got around to it today. I have to say, I am very surprised by the 2 negative reviews I read below and they are furthest from the truth. If you want to drop off your pup and have him/​her trained for you, then this is not the place for you. I have been to one of these places in the past with my first pup, a min pin, and I can tell you first hand, it was the biggest waste of money! My dog would do everything for the trainer, but the only thing she would do with me was sit. This place is different… THEY WORK WITH YOU & YOUR DOG, so when you walk out of there, you know what to do, it becomes second nature, your dog knows what to do, your friends and family will notice the difference and in the end you & your dog will be happier. That’s what my experience has been and I couldn’t be happier! Sometimes it’s difficult to work with your dog because you think you are doing it right, but you aren’t getting a positive result and it’s frustrating. At this place, you have a professional walk you through every step.
The prices are very reasonable and I love having a nice clean indoor space to work with my pup. It’s also so nice to have a happy, tired pup when we get home. At times, my work schedule is unpredictable. I have called a day or two prior to ask if I could reschedule… It has not been a problem at all. Of course, just like many professional businesses, I would not expect a refund or a rescheduling if I cancelled last minute. When I signed up, I was very well informed of the policies, what to expect, what would happen during our first visit, etc. I have also called with questions and received a call back that day by Robin with the answers. She is SO knowledgeable & informative… it is obvious to me that she & the staff really care about all our furry loved ones. I guess what I would say to the people below is… if you have a concern or a question about a training method or a policy, then call and ask about it. Robin was the first person I dealt with there and I usually call and leave a message for her since she knows my pup and our issues. I have always gotten a call back.
At this Zoom Room, you will find yourself in an environment of dog owners, dog lovers, and people who truly understand and take a personal as well as a professional approach in helping you and your furry loved one. I have not been to any other facility that will provide you with this kind of dedication.

Pancho & I enjoy coming here. We come twice per week for Obedience 1. It’s clean and the trainers are knowledgable. They walk you through every step. The class is small. I enjoy watching how others interact with their dog. You learn more that way. The prices are reasonable. This is our happy place!

This place is just plain ridiculous. I thought that zoom room had were genuine people who loved training dogs but that’s not the case at all. This company is money hungry for the most part. Don’t get me wrong there are some great trainers for example Jennifer but she’s the only one who would want to make me go back to this place. First of all I showed up to my private class on time and made me wait 10 mins without an apology. Second I had an emergency and couldn’t make it to my class and they refused to reschedule me and didn’t even give me my money back. Are you kidding me?! All they said was sorry we can’t do anything. If these people really loved training dogs they would take every opportunity to train them. Extremely disappointed. Don’t take your dog here, your dogs are better off at petco.

Took my pups here for a birthday pawty! They had a blast =) The facilities are as clean and well organized as can be (come on, it’s a place for dogs!). I wish there had been a couple more obstacle courses, but the dogs still had a great time playing with new friends and trying out what was offered. We were able to set up a nice table on the outside of the play area for human/​dog treats and they even allowed us to bring wine. There was an employee/​owner there to supervise and clean up any messes as well.
We may come back sometime for an obedience/​agility lesson. It’s a great way to exercise your pooch. Both of ours passed out when they got home!
Lastly, they also have a pool area in the back! I bet labs LOOOOVE it.

Our puppy, Pinto, just finished one month of unlimited group classes for $ 150. We definitely made the most out of it with 14 classes so it came out to be less than $ 11 a class.
The only class we were able to take first was Obedience 1: Basic Manners. Robin and Jennifer were the two trainers at Zoom Room and they are both great. Jennifer’s Obedience 1 class focuses more at the basics before adding a second element like distractions. Pinto was able to «graduate» out of Obedince 1 after seven classes in a span of 19 days. That was with a lot of practice outside of class. Pinto was almost 6 months old when we started.
After completed Obedience 1, you’re open to take Obedience 2 and Agility 1. Agility is fun and interactive for both Pinto and I. He learned how to jump through a tire and over a bar, through tunnels, and walk different obstacles.
Out of all the classes we attended there was only one Obedience 2 class with six dogs. Most classes only had 4 or less. One class was even one-​on-​one with the trainer since no one else showed up!
Pups need mental exercise also and the classes help tire out Pinto.
The shop inside has a lot of supplies and treats but they are a little on the expensive side.
If you’re looking to train your puppy I’d definitely recommend the unlimited group classes.

A few things that I love about Zoom Room:
1. Agility classes are tons of fun! Both Robin and Hannah are excellent trainers. Class sizes have never been too big. Content covered in class is quite varied from week to week so you don’t get bored doing the same exact thing each time.
2. They offer private gym sessions to allow you to practice with your dog.
3. Monthly unlimited classes are a good deal if you want to go a lot.
4. Lots of variety in class offerings and workshops.
5. Love the ability to book everything online and see all my past history on my account.
6. There’s a pool in the back where your dog can learn to swim with an instructor.
7. They host adoptions through the Lovejoy Foundation on the weekends.
8. Great selection of doggie treats, toys, and supplies.
If you’re looking for a dog training place, Zoom Room is a great option. The pricing is a little more than I’d ideally like to spend, but I think it’s in line with most other places. For as much fun as my dog and I have here, I’ll keep going as long as I can afford to.

My dog Sophie started here about 6 weeks ago for agility training. Since then she has absolutely blossomed. She has already advanced to level 2 and it feels like such a great accomplishment for both of us. The zoom room is the place to go if you’re looking for anything from obedience training, to agility training, even specialty workshops like therapy dog! They even have these awesome raw meat bones that all my dogs absolutely love!!! The staff is all fantastic and the prices are stellar! You’ve got to try a class to really see how much every dog enjoys being there!

I first discovered Zoom Room in Culver City. I have a miniature schnauzer and agility training appealed to me because it seemed she would be perfect at it. Turns out she loves it! I did a series of private agility classes, but then we had to back off because it was quite the drive to get to Culver City on a regular basis. I was thrilled when I knew a Zoom Room was opening in Redondo Beach! The location is super easy to get to. at the corner of Manhattan Beach Blvd, and Inglewood, so it’s right off the 405 if you are on the freeway, and if you live in the South Bay… super easy access. It’s a great large space, with plenty of room for training. There’s also a back patio space, that is available to rent for private events, and is also used for dog adoptions by the Lovejoy foundation on the weekends.
I had my dog’s birthday party here last fall, and it was super fun. The staff set up some of the equipment for the dogs to play on, and I was able to bring in food, drinks and treats for the dogs. They set up the mirror ball and it’s just a great setting. I love that you can have private events or training, or private gym, because I’m not a fan of the dog park due to the uncontrolled setting.
It’s definitely NOT a place to just drop off your dog… it’s there to help you learn to work with your dog on whatever you choose (obedience, agility, flyball) and become more bonded because you’re doing something together.
My dod LOVES the agility course, and I’m looking forward to doing more training with her at Zoom Room. Check this unique place out soon!

I am only giving one star because I have to but they are so RUDE! I couldn’t come to my appointment because I requested my dog’s health records and they had yet to be received in the mail. When I called to let them know, the girl on the phone said she understood but since other people just don’t show up to their appointments they would have to charge me $ 30 if I didn’t show up. But if I went I wouldn’t be able to go in because I didn’t have my vaccination records was my response to her. She then told me she would call me back after she talked to the owner. I never received a call back and was charged $ 30 on the credit card they had on file for me.
These people are idiots. I would have spent hundreds per month there (I usually spend a lot of money on my dogs, more than I spend on myself) if they were nice and accommodating. But I would rather pay $ 30 and know not to give these people anymore of my money than support a business ran by rude people that don’t even bother calling me back before they charge me $ 30.
