Who we are

About Us

I enjoy working with all members of the family, especially children, so they can enjoy their animals as much as I did growing-up with my spaniel and my collie, 8 cats, Avery full of birds, rabbit, many small fury animals and some exotic species thanks to my animal loving and occasionally obsessed parents.

My aim is to set animals and their human carers up for success, looking to prevent problem behaviours ever occurring wherever possible and ensuring the establishment of an everlasting mutually fulfilling relationship. However, life happens and I am also here to help when things go wrong, approaching my work with a kind, non-judgmental and holistic approach.

At Muddy Mutleys Dog Training and Dog services we offer a wide range of group training opportunities, workshops, 121 sessions, sports and more! My aim is always to make these fun as well as informative. All members have access to training videos and resources that can be referred to time and time again.

As well as this I am a qualified Clinical Animal Behaviourist and Animal Trainer, registered with the APBC so I am able to work with your vet and your insurance company to help you with any behaviour issues and concerns you may have with any of your wonderful pets.

Muddy Mutleys

🌺so proud to launch this 🌺

You don’t need another thing.
You need something that helps your pet feel safe 💛

The Muddy Mutleys Safe Place Mat was designed by me as an animal behaviourist and trainer to give animals a clear, visible, predictable space they can rely on — wherever life takes you together.

By intentionally building positive emotional associations with this mat, your pet learns:
* “This space is safe”
* “I won’t be approached here”
* “Nothing scary happens on my mat”

Those feelings travel with the mat wherever you go — they transfer to new environments, helping reduce stress and build confidence over time.

✔️ Yellow for visibility (to pets and humans)
✔️ Non-slip for balance, confidence & security
✔️ Packs small, waterproof & wipe-clean
✔️ Pub, vet, groomer, public transport friendly
✔️ Can be used with Pet Remedy

This isn’t about control.
It’s about choice, clarity, and emotional safety.

HELP, I’VE GOT A HIPPO 🦛

Ever feel like you’re living with a hippo…

🐶A dog who explodes out of nowhere.
🐈‍⬛A cat who’s suddenly doing things you don’t understand.
🐰A rabbit, parrot, or pet who’s changed and you’re left thinking…

“Am I doing this wrong?”

If you’ve worked with me before, you’ll know how much support happens while we’re actively training together — WhatsApp messages, check-ins, reassurance, tweaks, encouragement.

And then the course ends…

and there’s often a big question:

“Now what?”

So I’ve created Help, I’ve Got a Hippo 🦛

A supportive membership for people who want ongoing help, community, and professional guidance — without starting from scratch every time something wobbles.

Here’s how it works:
✨ Hit the “Help, I’ve Got a Hippo” button
✨ Join a calm, kind, knowledgeable support space

You’ll get:
* WhatsApp support from me
* A community of people who get it
* A qualified trainer & behaviourist on tap
* Reassurance when things feel messy
* Help making sense of behaviour, not judging it

Because sometimes you don’t need another course.

You just need someone to say:

“I see the hippo… and we can handle this together.”
