Experienced reactive dog walker, outdoors lover
Pet care experience
I have loved dogs my entire life and since secondary school I have been walking friend's and family's dogs, and I have always found I am good with 'difficult' dogs. In October 2020 I began volunteering at Snowdonia Animal Sanctuary a couple of times a week and now work there one day per week. The shelter specialises in caring for reactive dogs, and I love working with challenging dogs and helping to change their feelings about the world. In June 2021, my partner and I adopted a highly reactive Border Collie, so I understand the mental and emotional impact of living with a reactive dog. I love learning about the training process and seeing dogs learn. Living in North Wales, I am very lucky to be surrounded by so many gorgeous walks and lots of nature to explore on dog walks.
Reviews
Hannah was fabulous with Shelby and very accommodating! If we're in the area again we will get in touch ?
Hannah looked after Millie for the afternoon while we went to zipworld. She was a natural with dogs, reassured Millie and gave her a lovely walk in the area. Thanks Hannah!!
Hannah has walked my dog on a number of occasions and I have been delighted every time. Cuan always loves going out with hannah and I trust her entirely with him. I know that whatever scenario she has to deal with, she will handle it with a professional and confident manner. Cannot recommend her highly enough!!
Can't recommend Hannah enough! She's been walking my reactive pup for a good while now, but it's been so much more than "just walking"! She's incredibly good with him and has passed on so may tips for me to use with Bran too, and he's come such a long way since he's starting walking with Hannah! He always loves his walks with Hannah, and comes back a very happy, relaxed boy! On top of that, she's always on time and a general pleasure to deal with :)

I can walk your dog in your local area - either let me know where you would like me to take them or I can find local trails. I will keep your dog on a longline until I get to know them, then if they have reliable recall we can discuss walking them off-lead. I incorporate fun, positive training into walks to build a bond with your dog and create a safe environment for them. I always train through rewards (either food or play rewards). We can play, hang out, sniff and explore to ensure your dog feels satisfied and content after their walk.

Availability
I work as a freelance translator so I get to choose my own working hours and I work from home. This gives me the flexibility to fit my work around dog walks and drop-ins.
