Private In-Home Dog Training in
Personalized 1-on-1 training that helps your dog listen, respond to verbal commands, and behave reliably in everyday life.
I don't just train your dog—I teach YOU how to communicate clearly and consistently with your dog.
1-on-1 Private Dog Training
Personalized training for you and your dog, built around your specific goals. I come to your home or meet you wherever you need help—from your neighborhood to the park, mall, or hiking trail.
Real-World Dog Training
Training shouldn’t only work inside your home. We’ll practice the skills your dog needs in real-life situations so you can enjoy a better-behaved, more reliable companion wherever you go.
Personalized Training & Support
Every dog and owner is different. I create a training plan based on your dog’s behavior, your goals, and your lifestyle, and I provide clear instructions so you can continue practicing between lessons.
Meet Elisa
I’m Elisa Levenbaum, owner and trainer at Fit Dog Training.
I believe successful dog training isn’t just about teaching a dog commands—it’s about teaching the owner how to communicate clearly and consistently with their dog.
That’s why every lesson is personalized. I first listen to what you’re struggling with and what you want to accomplish. Then I create a training plan that fits your dog, your lifestyle, and your goals.
During our lessons, I demonstrate the training, explain why we’re doing it, and then have you work with your dog so you feel confident continuing the training on your own.
My goal is for you to leave each lesson knowing exactly what to do and how to do it.
My Approach
Listen. Teach. Practice. Repeat.
I keep training practical, straightforward, and enjoyable while building clear communication between you and your dog.
And because training continues between lessons, I’m available to answer questions and provide guidance as you work with your dog.
