A fully Certified and Qualified Professional Dog Trainer and founder of Paws Plus Consulting.

​

I am a professional dog trainer in the Sutherland Shire specialising in puppy training and dog behaviour, with over 30 years of experience in the animal care industry and 26 years running puppy preschool classes. I am a Graduate of the Victoria Stilwell Academy of Dog Training, a CPDT-KA Certified Professional Dog Trainer, and a Qualified Veterinary Nurse, combining expert behavioural knowledge with hands-on clinical experience.

I have also developed a comprehensive online puppy training Masterclass, created from decades of real-world experience helping puppies and their owners achieve lasting results.

Having worked in both Australia and the UK, I use positive reinforcement, force-free, and games-based dog training methods to support puppies, rescue dogs, therapy dogs, and family pets with a wide range of behavioural needs.

As a trusted dog trainer amongst vets in the Sutherland Shire and Greater Sydney, I am passionate about helping pet parents build strong relationships through clear communication and practical training—without fear or intimidation.

I run group classes for all ages in Kirrawee at the IPET Store, and provide private in-home dog training consultations across the Sutherland Shire and Greater Sydney, helping dogs and their families create calm, happy, and well-balanced lives.
