ZOE IACP-DTFC
& KYRAN
Owners and Trainers
After working professionally as a pet sitter, horse trainer, and dog walker for years, Zoe went on to continue her dog training education with Columbia Dog Training School. As a trainer's assistant she helped work with many dogs of all different shapes and sizes in a board and train program. Zoe began Rascal Training in 2019, since then Rascal has helped over 80 dogs in the in-home board and train program. In addition to Rascal Training, Zoe is a co-owner of Mother Pupper, a unique daycare service where the dogs' mental health always comes first. Learn more about the daycare here.
Zoe is consistently continuing her education via seminars, shadowing other trainers, and extensive research on how the canine mind works. She is a Professional Member of the International Association for Canine Professionals and is certified through the same association. She is currently working towards a certification in Canine Nutrition to expand her knowledge of holistic health.
Kyran is the live-in assistant trainer and co-owner, when he is not helping care for the board and train pups he is doing many DIY projects around the house. Kyran may work behind the scenes, but his work is invaluable to us here at Rascal Training.
