albany pet services
I set up Albany Pet Services with the support of the Princes Trust Charity.
After university I took some routes down the corporate route. I had visions that
lunches in London and walking past the Heron tower and the Gherkin would
carrying my Kate Spade handbag would fulfil me but it didn’t! In search of more
meaning in my work, I joined a charity and learnt about the power of how dogs
learn. It fascinated me how much trust a person could place in their dogs and
how clever dogs were. From here, after my contract ended, I started Albany Pet
Services. I’m fascinated by neuroscience and how it can help to build habits and
reach goals. I look at a pets behaviour from a holistic approach. It’s important
for me to understand a pet’s behaviour from their early life experiences and
previous reinforcement that makes them behave this way. Sometimes the need the
pet is desiring is not always food so it’s important for me to look at a
behaviour from a motivation perspective. I believe training can help a pet be
safe in our busy world, and when done correctly can be an excellent preventative
strategy for behavioural challenges. Consent is key, for human and non human
learners. My training service can help you to feel more confident with your dog
and help you to stress less. I have spent hundreds of hours studying, reading,
writing reports and training and I would love to share what I have learnt to
overcome the particular challenge you’re experiencing. I volunteer for the Blue
Cross providing talks for children in schools about canine choice, pet care and
staying safe around dogs. This is really important to me as many dog bites can
be preventable. When I am not working with people and their pets, I enjoy
watching and participating in my local theatre and running group. I also love
singing and dancing ( I’m yet to master them but I enjoy them nevertheless!).
Flying a plane is the next goal!
