ABOUT ME
Originally from Austria, I have always loved nature and animals, dogs in particular. I spent several years walking my neighbours' dogs in my free time until I finally decided to change careers and open my own canine walking business in 2022. Since then I have met many amazing doggies and owners.
I work really hard on constantly improving my knowledge and practical skills to give my clients the best possible service.
I hold several qualifications including
🐾 BCCS Amtra and CPD accredited canine first aid certificate
🐾 BCCS Professional dog walker certificate
🐾 IMDT Puppy, body language and dog training certificates
🐾 Predation training certificate.
I am currently working on becoming a Mantrailing Global Instructor and am assisting in puppy classes on weekends.
I believe in reward-based science backed training methods. My focus is on building a strong bond with your dog, keeping them safe and happy in my care, using clear and calm communication.
All of my services are 1-2-1 to suit the needs of your best friend. I am happy to tailor my services to your dog's age, breed and personality. I have plenty of experience working with rescue/reactive dogs and will happily help you progress your training journey.
I currently have availability for new clients in Northolt, Greenford and Pitshanger.
