Ever since I was little, growing up in a small town in New Zealand’s South Island, animals have been my life. Whether I was wrangling cats, teaching tricks to dogs, or walking around with a chicken under one arm, it was clear early on that I was destined to do some sort of work with animals when I grew up.

Fast forward to today and I have now been helping dogs and their people for over five years in both a professional and volunteer capacity, and I absolutely love what I do!

I have a special place in my heart for rescue dogs and the challenges (and rewards!) that come with their unique personalities. That said, I’m passionate about working with all dogs, no matter their age, breed, or background.

In 2019, I completed my formal dog training studies through the National Dog Trainers Federation (NDTF), and I’ve never stopped learning since. Right now, I’m particularly interested in how targeted training and understanding can help support dogs’ mental health. I believe a happy, balanced dog makes for a happy, balanced home!

At Content Canines, I focus on positive, practical, and personalised training that strengthens the bond between you and your dog. Whether you’re starting with a new puppy, working through behaviour challenges, or just looking to teach some fun new skills, I’m here to help!

The boring stuff: I have up to date police and working with children checks, public liability insurance and my ABN is 82423974913.

Does your dog have star power? What about lead character energy??

As an added bonus to you, I also source, train and handle animals for adverting, TV and movies. You never know when I might get a request for a dog just like yours!

Say hi to your dog for me 👋
