Pet care experience
Dog Walker & Trainer | CPD Certified 🐶
Hello! My name is Ivan. I am an experienced dog walker and dog trainer based in Wakefield. I enjoy working with dogs of all breeds, sizes and personalities, from young puppies to energetic adult dogs. During walks I focus on calm and structured behaviour so dogs can feel relaxed, balanced and comfortable. Many dogs benefit from clear guidance during walks, which helps improve leash manners, focus and overall behaviour. I have experience working with dogs that pull on the leash, become overexcited outside or have difficulty focusing during walks. My goal is to make walks safe, calm and enjoyable for the dog while also encouraging better behaviour and engagement with the handler. I always treat every dog with patience, respect and attention to their individual needs. Your dog's safety and wellbeing are my priority. I also offer dog training sessions for owners who would like to improve behaviour such as leash pulling, basic obedience, recall or overexcited behaviour during walks. If you are looking for someone who not only walks dogs but also understands dog behaviour and training principles, I would be happy to help. Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your dog.🐾

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Ivan is fantastic, such a great trainer!

Very knowledgeable of larger breeds, took his time to let Kaiser earn his trust before taking him out. Would highly recommend
Ivan did a fantastic job looking after Roo. It was clear from the moment I picked her up that she had been well cared for, was happy, and had settled in well. Communication was excellent throughout, with regular updates and reassurance that gave me real peace of mind. I really appreciated the care, patience, and professionalism Ivan showed, especially when things weren't completely straightforward. He handled everything calmly and confidently, and it was obvious that Roo was in safe hands. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ivan to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter, and I'd be very happy to book with him again. Thank you Ivan!

Great communication and lots of lovely updates

We have already booked Ivan’s for our next break, kept us up to date throughout, our babies adored him, they seemed a bit disappointed when we arrived home instead of him 😊 would absolutely recommend Ivan’s excellent thank you 🙏
We used Ivan for doggy daycare for our 8-month-old Ridgeback puppy for the first time, and the experience was excellent. Ivan kept in touch throughout the day with updates, which gave me real peace of mind and reassurance that she was in safe hands. When I picked her up, she was clearly having a great time and looked so happy and settled. I also met Ivan’s wife, who was equally lovely and really inspired confidence. It’s such a relief to find people you can trust with your pup — I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!
