Some say I am dog obsessed, and I think they are right. I have worked with animals in a professional capacity for over 8 years and I would not want it any other way.
Learning has always been part of my personality. After completing an Animal Management Diploma at Writtle College I moved to Winchester to study Animal Welfare and Society. This degree was fascinating covering welfare science, applied animal behaviour and sociology. We had to think like animals and their caretakers for three years, I loved it! I left with a First- Class honours degree and newfound fire to apply what I had learned, hence starting my business.
I have also been a dog foster for a local charity, one very emotional role indeed. One of my fondest fosters was a three legged Suluki. This girl was so worried by the outside world when she first came to us but over time this changed. By listening to her and creating a foundation of trust, together we tackled the world. She is now blossoming in her new home.
Most recently I have completed a qualification in dog training with The Professional Association of Dog Trainers (PACT) which also puts me on the Animal Behaviour and Training (ABTC) register. I will be applying knowledge gained from this qualification to support puppy parents.
I am a passionate individual and have one goal; to support dogs and their human parents. Ping me a message to find out if I am the pet professional for you.

I have a first class honours degree in Animal Welfare and Society (BA) as well as a Level 3 City & Guilds Diploma in Animal Management. My most recent achievement is gaining a dog training qualification with the Professional Association of Canine Trainers (PACT).

I have assisted at dog training classes for a charity for over two years. Additionally I have fostered 12 dogs, worked within the veterinary, dog day care and dog grooming industry's.

Safe to say learning is an addiction for me now. I spend my evenings and weekends with my head in books and shadowing other dog trainers.

Of course we care about your dog but we also care so much about you to! Whether you have mobility needs or want me to spend time chatting to you after a walk, I can make it happen.
