Meet your trainer

Hi, I’m Jess and I am a total nerd for dog behaviour! Dogs truly are special animals and I have made it my life’s work to share that wonder with people; helping to overcome struggles and create lives of fun and freedom. I use kind, non-aversive methods and prioritise emotional needs over compliance.

  • I first got into the canine world just after I graduated from Zoology back in 2014. I, like many, grew up obsessed with dogs, but I couldn’t have my own so I’d spend time with my neighbours dogs instead! And so, with the knowledge on animal behaviour from my degree, it was only right that I specialised into the world of canine behaviour. I've since qualified as a Certified Dog Trainer with the Dog Training College and I am currently a student Canine Science Behaviourist with the School of Canine Science.

    I am so grateful for all the experience I’ve gained with dogs over the past 10 years; through study, voluntary work experience and setting up my own dog walking and training business. There’s no doubt that with dogs you’re always learning, but the skills I’ve developed in reading canine communication and body language have allowed me to experience the quite unique way humans and dogs can connect.

    My aim in my work is to give others the tools to experience that same bond with their own dog, and communicate with them so they can experience the wonder of dogs and live a joyful, cooperative life together. I help people not only to teach dogs, but understand them. This way, teaching is done in the most effective and compassionate way.

    I feel very passionately about people enjoying their lives with their dogs. There is no ‘right’ way to live with a dog, and often it is the unwritten rules and impossible expectations that hold people back! I love showing people that you can absolutely work on your dog’s behaviour without taking everything too seriously, and guiding people through a fun and personalised training plan that gets them to where they want to be.

    I’m all about compassionate and holistic care, for you and your dog. I’ll help you with everything from the strong foundations you need, to the nitty gritty training skills that will help your dog raising journey develop; and I will love every second of it!

  • With Compassion, Kindness and Rewards

    We’re, what’s best known as, positive reinforcement-based trainers. We draw upon our dogs joy seeking tendencies and keenness to learn to develop a calm, and confident outlook.

    We put understanding and care at the forefront of all our practices, taking a holistic approach to their success.

    Happy Dogs make wonderful companions, ready to enjoy every fun and freedom life has to offer. We’ll coach, guide and support you in raising the most fulfilled little friend.

  • Skills Based and Relevant

    Never before, have we expected so much of our canine companion. Thankfully, we know a lot more about them now too.

    We employ science-backed, well-researched and compassionate practices.

    We start by nurturing their needs, ensuring diet, sleep and daily activity are all wagging tails.

    Then we focus on the skills and outlook that build a happy dog…

    • The natural outlets dogs thrive on.

    • The resilience and optimism to take on all the modern madness.

    • Brilliant bonds, family, and friendship.

    • The ability to switch off and relax, in their life as a pet.

    • The safety essentials – like recall and lead walking.

  • Focused on YOU

    Raising a dog for today’s world is no easy feat. From nailing the foundations with a puppy, to teaching great choices the role of a dog guardian is full of questions and conundrums.

    While our title is ‘dog trainer’ we’re really teaching you. We’ll share with you the secret to success and coaching you in everything canine.

    You’ll understand their behaviour, and what they’re learning to communicate. We’ll help develop your timing, techniques and training skills for progress to soar. And you’ll leave every session with a deeper insight and connection for a lifetime of success!
