I’ve been a certified professional dog trainer through Animal Behaviour College (ABC) since 2017, but my love for dogs started when I was a toddler. I grew up with dogs, cats, and various reptiles and amphibians. I had a golden retriever and a dalmation when I was a kid and they couldnt be more opposite. I've had toads, a bearded dragon, trantulas, a scorpion, a columbian red tailed boa, two cats and before moving to Australia I had a collection of ball pythons and my dog Bell. I love her so much I brought her with me when I moved, and I couldnt imagine leaving her behind.

In October 2017 I moved to the Gold Coast from Canada and started my company, Polar Dog Training and Boarding. One day I hope to open a board and train facility with daycare but for now I use my home. I offer basic training and manners when your dog stays with me but I also offer private training sessions. All breeds and all ages are welcome here!

Not only do I have my ABCDT certificate, but I’ve recently graduated with my Vet nursing Cert IV. I have spent a lot of time with all sorts of animals including birds, reptiles, amphibians, cats, dogs, and rodents. I am forever learning more about animals and forever loving them more and more! When your pet stays with me I always try to keep there routine or schedule the same as at home to help maintain a stress free environment. For example if your dog sleeps outside vs inside I will do the same!

*Please note*

I only accept in-tact male dogs under 1 year old, if older they must be desexed. Female dogs can not be in heat while boarding.
