ABOUT ME

Helping your Animal Friends

I first started working with dogs at the age of 14 and knew that this was what I wanted as a career. I went on to study animal behaviour and welfare at university in the UK, achieving my Bachelors after three years of study. 

After taking 3 years out to train and work as a safari guide, in Hluhluwe Imfolozi and in Limpopo, I first started operating as a professional animal behaviourist in 2011. 

 

I specialise in dog behaviour, working with all types of behavioural problems using positive reinforcement methods.

 

MY SERVICES

It’s never too late to teach an old dog new tricks, and I believe it’s never too late to train any pet. My services are designed with you and your pet in mind, and I believe in working as much with you as with your animal. I’m proud of my high success rate and the level of satisfaction my clients, and their pets, come away with every time.

R250 per hour

 

 

A consultation package starts with an assessment at your home, from where we will plan the rest of the program for your pet. I do not charge by the hour and will spend as much time as necessary to make a proper assessment. Following this session, I provide a detailed written report outlining the plan discussed in person. Any further follow-up consultations are charged at R250, although I am very happy to help remotely via email etc. without further charge. 

 

I will travel to further afield locations on request. Please get in touch for a quote.
