Hi, I'm Rachel
I'm an IMDT-certified dog trainer based in Petts Wood, mum of two under 5, and dog mum to Megan.
I started Nova Dog Training to bridge the gap between professional dog training and the realities of everyday life - chaotic and unpredictable!
Most of us are juggling work, family and everything else. Training happens in short bursts as and when you can fit it in. Walks are sometimes rushed. And that's OK.
I specialise in practical, family-friendly training solutions that work around your schedule and your lifestyle.
Whether you're dealing with a new puppy, behaviour problems or just feeling overwhelmed - I'm here to help with tailored, 1-to-1 support.
No judgement, and no unrealistic expectations.
