Meet Martina

I'm passionate about helping owners better understand their dogs and create lasting behaviour change through kind, effective training.
My approach combines practical training skills and applied behaviour analysis with emotional wellbeing. Whether I'm helping a reactive dog feel safer on walks, supporting a family through the journey of welcoming a new puppy, or working through more complex behaviour challenges like separation anxiety, my goal is always the same: to help dogs and their people enjoy their life together.
Every dog is an individual, and every training plan is tailored with this in mind, so that both the dog and their family can thrive.

PAULINE O'CONNOR

"We took on an 18month old dog with aggressive behaviour and anxiety problems. Fortunately, Martina was recommended to us as a dog trainer and, a year on, we have a loving, quirky, and irreplaceable family member. The change was so marked that other dog owners in the neighbourhood thought we had a different dog. Martina worked with our dog with patience, care, and exceptional knowledge, starting with one-on-ones and then through reactive and agility classes. Martina is still one of our dog's favourite people, and always gets a huge welcome when we see her. I have recommended Martina to others who have also had superb results."
