My name is Caity, I’m a puppy trainer based in Berwick, VIC. I offer 1 on 1 private sessions and dog training walks. I am all about helping to equip owners with the tools and information they need to create a trusting and stress-free relationship with their dog.

 

Ever since starting work in a pet store, I was thrown into teaching puppy school straight away. For a young girl given this responsibility, the anxiety at first was very intense. Though after the first class, I immediately fell in love with it! There has been something special about helping people with their dogs ever since. 

 

More than 10 years later and I’m running one of the top puppy schools in the Eastern suburbs and helping people in a 1 on 1 setting outside of my day job. 

I’ve worked in pet retail, doggie daycares, shelters, with dog treat companies and had my own pet photography and design business. All of my careers have involved dogs, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

 

I have always loved training my own dogs, achieving my Finnish Lapphund’s American trick dog championship title at a very young age. 

Being a dog breeder, I am also involved in the show ring, helping train show dogs to perform and helping socialise them to all the funny sights and sounds.  

 

It’s important that our dogs not only love us but trust us. This is why when we train we train with love and patience, we get satisfying results and nurture a strong and trusting relationship between us and our dogs.
