I’m passionate about helping you and your dog to live a happy, stress free life
Hi, I’m Kim
I started this business because I love what I do: helping dogs, and the people who love them, get to a better place together. Sixteen years in, I still think it's the best job going.
My career started with a big love of dogs and not much else. Over time, that turned into years of academic study, a stack of professional qualifications, and a business I'm genuinely proud of.
Today, I'm a Certified Clinical Animal Behaviourist — which means I don't just train dogs, I understand how they think, feel, and experience the world. That's the foundation everything else is built on. I'm not guessing. I'm applying real expertise to your dog, specifically.

I can help…
Dogs who struggle home alone
Living with a dog who has difficulty being left alone can impact every part of your life. I understand how restrictive that can feel. I’ll work with you to create a practical, personalised plan that fits your routine and supports both you and your dog.
Dogs who struggle out on walks
Many dogs find walks challenging. They can feel anxious about being out, about other dogs, or about unfamiliar people, and often several factors contribute at once. The first step is to identify the specific triggers for your dog’s anxiety, then work on rebuilding confidence from there with gentle, structured training and gradual exposure.
Dogs who struggle at while at home
Dogs that find home life challenging - whether they react to visitors, wake frequently through the night, have trouble settling, jump up, or use their mouths and teeth inappropriately - can be helped. We’ll work with you to create a clear, practical plan tailored to your dog’s needs to reduce stress and improve everyday behaviour, making life easier for everyone in the household.
