Personalised dog training brought to you — no need for you to travel
By working in your dog’s everyday environments, we can support them through real-life challenges in a way that feels calm, manageable, and practical from the start.
Training isn’t just about teaching behaviours.
It’s about understanding your dog, supporting them when things feel difficult, and helping them feel safe enough to learn.
When things aren’t going smoothly, it’s often not about disobedience, but about your dog struggling to cope or make sense of what’s being asked.
I use positive, reward-based, science-led training to help you and your dog find a clear way of communicating and working together, in a way that fits into your everyday life.
By building trust and cooperation, and making learning feel more manageable, real, lasting change can begin to happen in everyday life.
Dog and puppy training – £50
Using reward-based and thoughtful training, we’ll work together to help your dog develop skills that feel manageable and meaningful in everyday life, while strengthening your relationship.
I focus on your dog’s emotional wellbeing and always consider their perspective. Together, we’ll find approaches that work for both of you.
Sessions are one-to-one and tailored to your dog and your situation. We’ll begin by understanding what’s going on, and then build a plan that feels clear and realistic to follow. Training often starts in your home, and then moves into the environments you use every day, so your dog can learn in a way that feels relevant and easier to apply in real life.
I can support you with things like:
• Puppy training and early foundations
• Loose lead walking, recall, and other common challenges
• Building calm, settled behaviour at home and outdoors
• Supporting confidence and emotional wellbeing, and helping with things like fear, phobias, or reactivity
• Understanding your dog’s communication and needs
You’ll receive guidance and support between sessions to help you feel confident moving forward.
Sessions are 1 hour long.
3 sessions: £145
6 sessions: £270
Packages are available if you’d like ongoing support.
Pre-puppy (or dog) preparation – £40
These one-to-one sessions are designed to help you feel prepared and confident before welcoming a new puppy (or dog) into your home.
Bringing a new dog home can feel exciting, but also a little overwhelming. We’ll talk through what to expect in the early days, and how to set things up in a way that feels calm, manageable, and realistic for you.
This can include:
• Setting up your home and choosing the right equipment
• Helping your puppy settle in and feel safe from the start
• Early routines around sleep, toilet training, and play
• Understanding communication, boundaries, and socialisation
Sessions are tailored to you, so we can focus on what feels most relevant and helpful for your situation.
Child-dog interaction – £70
These one-to-one sessions are designed to help children and dogs feel safe, understood, and comfortable around each other.
As a dog trainer with a background in child psychology and experience working with children of all ages (including those with additional needs), I support families in building calm, respectful interactions between dogs and children.
In these sessions, your child will learn how to:
• Understand dog communication and body language
• Interact with dogs safely, clearly, and respectfully
• Recognise when a dog needs space, and how to respond appropriately
I also offer sessions for:
• Families with children about to welcome a new dog
• Families with dogs preparing to welcome a baby
These sessions can help prevent misunderstandings and create a calmer, safer environment for everyone.
3 sessions: £200
5 sessions: £335
Packages are available if you’d like ongoing support.

“Very professional. Took time to understand training needs and after spending some time with our dog, put a written plan together. Had good understanding of dog psychology and behaviour, and helped so much with puppy training. Our dog was scared to walk past people and after training we don’t have this issue. Would highly recommend.”
