About Me

I became a dog trainer because from a young age I was fascinated by dogs. These four-legged creatures seem glued to us... Why? How?... I was never allowed to have a dog when I was growing up, each time I asked my parents they said 'No', as a result my curiosity and intrigue grew! So I watched all the TV shows, read as many books as I could find and jumped at any walking or pet sitting opportunity offered to me by friends and family members.

We are able to communicate with a completely different species and they are able to understand what we mean - how incredible is that?! The relationship between humans and canines is uniquely special, and yet more often than not, taken for granted.

As I explored the vast varieties of roles that dogs have in our modern lives, I quickly fell in love with watching dogs perform complex and important duties; police, medical, emergency and therapy dogs, they all fascinate me! As my knowledge and skill set advanced, I helped more complex cases many of whom were anxious, stressed and overwhelmed. Too anxious to simply be a dog. As I helped, their confidence grew; these fluff-balls of anxiety came out of their shell and began to shine in their new found confidence, independence and happiness. Those moments are truly heartwarming.

Your average house dog is much smarter than you may think - it’s up to you to find out just how clever they truly are!

My Experience

My desire to work with dogs rose when I started to work in a very mundane retail job - with my admiration for dogs and desire to run my own business. I began studying at home in between my shifts with the aspiration to walk dogs providing them a tailored, comfortable and joyful walk. By understanding body language, I could easily achieve this and provide clients the best walking services.

As my experience and knowledge grew, I took the leap into basic dog training back in 2020 and I have continued my studies to this day.

I volunteered and worked tirelessly with my home-study courses. I’ve been studying for 6 years, running my own business for 5 years.

After studying over 1,000 hours and passing 27 video assessments with Victoria Stilwell's Academy, I became a fully certified dog trainer back in 2022.

I am now studying with ISCP on their Level 6 Advanced Diploma course in Dog Behaviour in as a step to becoming a certified Behaviourist!

I continue to look out for more learning opportunities; courses, books, lectures as well as reaching out to other science-based trainers for fresh and innovative ideas.
