About me
Hi I'm Deb, and I have over seven years of experience working with dogs. My journey began volunteering with dog rescues and charities, where I discovered my passion for helping dogs of all breeds, personalities and backgrounds.
Since then, I've worked alongside a canine behaviourist and completed further training to develop my knowledge of canine behaviour. I am committed to continuing my education through regular courses, workshops and professional development, allowing me to stay current with the latest force-free, science-based approaches to dog training. This has allowed me to specialise in supporting dogs who need a little extra time, patience and understanding, as well as those who benefit from more than just a standard walk.
I believe every dog is an individual, so I tailor each walk to suit their needs. Alongside physical exercise, I incorporate enrichment activities such as scent work and gundog games to provide valuable mental stimulation. By engaging both the mind and the body I help build confidence, reduce stress and your dog will return home happy, relaxed and fulfilled.
Whether your dog is energetic, nervous, reactive or simply loves to learn, they will receive the care, attention and positive experiences they deserve.

Solo Dog Walk
Solo walks tailored to your dogs individual needs, whether you have a nervous rescue, young pup, a senior dog or simply want one-to-one attention. I always include scentwork and gundog games to tire the mind as well as the legs.
Enrichment Visits
Enrichment visits at home. These can consist of scentwork, gundog games or confidence building sessions. Toilet breaks and feeding - whatever your dog needs. Great for when the weather is too hot for walks, a pup/senior/rescue dog that can't go out or a dog on crate rest.
