Carrie has been amazingly supportive and patient with our Cocker Spaniel who has separation anxiety. He's come on leaps and bounds since we started with Carrie, the journey is long and difficult, but I feel we have the right tools and knowledge now to deal with it. We would definitely recommend.

It’s been an absolute pleasure having Carrie help us train my 3 year old dog . She is so approachable efficient and makes the whole training experience so much fun with fabulous results .

Carrie has been a joy for Bella and I to work with over the past few months. She's given me the tools and knowledge needed to enable me to help Bella get over certain behaviours on walks which included training in areas seemingly unrelated to the issues but it all helped towards changing her behaviour. She tailored each session depending on the progress we'd made since our last session. Thank you and we highly recommend you. Scott and Bella.

Carrie has been my ‘rock’...our journey...It was very quickly apparent my puppy suffered Separation Anxiety from very early on. I contacted Carrie as we needed help. We started on a 1-2-1 which helped embed the process, having daily training sessions and a weekly zoom call to discuss progress. I felt immediately supported. Then disaster struck. He broke his jaw at 20 weeks old. We put his training on hold until he recovered. Throughout this time Carrie kept in touch to see how we were. Training commenced on his recovery and then for the next 14 months we were on Carries fantastic Separation Anxiety  programme. With daily advice, step by step instructions and a handy App to record everything, we have managed to navigate the world of ‘managed absences’ to now reach a comfortable 3 to 4 hour alone time. Its been extremely difficult at times but Carrie’s SA training works if you trust in the process. We couldn’t have done it without her. I have my life back...thank you Carrie.

Carrie is such a fabulous trainer and having spent the last few months with her she has taught me (and my puppy!) so much! Her 121 sessions have been instrumental to my puppy's growth and behaviour and I couldn't recommend her highly enough. Thanks for everything Carrie, will book back in with you in the future!

I was having very stressful walks with my Frenchie , she kept barking uncontrollably every time  she seen other  dogs , pulling to get close to dogs also . I came across Carrie , who was amazing , I can now walk my dog without me and my Frenchie getting stresssd . We can now even greet other dogs and stop for a chat . Which I never thought would happen .
My only regret is not finding Carrie sooner .
I now enjoy every walk

Parsely is not a fan of meeting people but quickly loved Carrie - her attention / focus and recall has improved massively and would definitely recommend

We recently rehomed a young dachshund cross who had never really been walked on a lead or socialised with anyone except the family he lived with. We needed help with getting him walking calmly without reacting to other dogs, reducing his anxiety towards visitors to our home and dealing with his separation anxiety. Carrie’s help and advice has been invaluable and our little man has come on so far. He’s still a work in progress but now we have the knowledge to work with his issues. Thank you so much Carrie

I cannot speak highly enough of Carrie. She's been there all along the way guiding us as new dog parents, and I'm so grateful! I'd always look forward to sessions with Carrie as they always made me so proud of Penny (our cavalier) and inspired by Carrie to do better for Penny each time. It was like a refresh on what's important each time.

Carrie clearly has expert understanding of how dogs learn and interact with the world, but she can also clearly communicate / teach the human, which has been invaluable as it's set us up with skills for a lifetime. Her approach is not just about teaching commands, but fostering a strong bond between owners and their dogs. Carrie took the time to educate us , emphasizing the importance of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. She's taught us the process of teaching, so the sky's the limit when it comes to new things Penny can learn!

Something I've really appreciated is Carrie provides comprehensive guidance on different stages of Penny's growth so we know what to expect along the way (from a tiny puppy to being a teenager and going through her first season). From setting reasonable expectations to navigating the challenges of socialization, she has been a constant source of wisdom. Carrie's advice extends beyond basic training; she has provided insights into proper nutrition, recommended products, and offered solutions for common issues such as separation anxiety.

Carrie set up a dedicated Whatsapp group for us, which allowed us to message any questions we had, check-in, send videos at any time between sessions. This was particularly good to hold us accountable for doing some of the separation anxiety exercises which we particularly struggled with. This level of accessibility was reassuring but also a testament to her commitment to our puppy's well-being.

As well as 1-2-1 sessions with Carrie, we also attended a puppy socialisation session, where young puppies could interact with each other in a controlled setting and Carrie would give expert advice on acceptable play and what to look out for in body language. Again, life skills!

And in our 1-2-1 sessions, Carrie was happy to do whatever was best for us and always had a plan if we weren't sure - going on lead walks, off-lead walks, playing in the garden, you name it. She even helped us with facilitating controlled socialisation with one of our friends dogs who had a very different energy level to Penny, and helped us navigate this diplomatically.

I'd recommend Carrie in a heartbeat - whether you're new to owning a dog or someone with a specific problem, I guarantee she will be the best person you could call. It's difficult to over-state the positive impact she has had on Penny's life and Penny's owners lives as a result.

Thank you Carrie - from Alice, James and of course, Penny! <3

Carrie is a fantastic dog trainer. We worked with her weekly in 121 sessions with our miniature English Bull Terrier puppy from when we brought them home until he was 1. We learnt so much from her, our dog is so well behaved and fun and importantly we really enjoyed the sessions and looked forward to them.
