Meet Charlie

My journey with dogs began in childhood—with a deep love and fascination for animals, you could always find me around the nearest dog.

So it was no surprise that the moment I had the chance to work with dogs, I knew this is what I was meant to do.

My professional career began at Royvon Dog Training & Hotels in Esher 2019, where I started as a kennel assistant.
It didn’t take long before I found myself drawn to the trainers —watching the dogs as they learned and gained confidence was fascinating.

My interest grew and a year later I stepped into a full-time role as a trainee dog trainer.

Driven to deepen my understanding, I’ve studied canine care, puppy development, and psychology and went on to earn my qualification with the IMDT, passing with a distinction within a year of becoming a full time trainer.

I’ve spent five years immersed in hands-on dog training—constantly refining my craft through ongoing seminars, workshops, and courses led by respected names in the industry.

Qualifications:

  • Level 3 Canine Care & Psychology

  • Level 3 Professional Daycare & Boarding

  • Assessed with distinction by the Institute of Modern Training

  • Assessed with the Dog Training College

Not long before I was employed as a trainer, my partner and I rehomed Amber —

a one-year-old Boxer x Alapaha Blue Blooded Bulldog with her own behavioural challenges.

Amber has played a huge part in shaping who I am as a trainer. She fueled my determination to learn more about dog behaviour, breeds and building motivation.

Together we take part in the Dog Sport G.R.C (Gameness, Relationship, Control) which highlights the important of training a responsible dog whilst also acknowledging and fulfilling their needs.

Amber has successfully completed GRC’s Level One Social Responsibility Test
and is 9th dog in England to pass this challenging assessment, judged by Jay Jack.

Amber continues to be my greatest teacher and best friend.
