Tailored Dog Training for Londoners: Helping You and Your Dog Thrive in the City
Dog training in hectic parts of a city like East London comes with unique challenges: from a lack of outdoor space to an inability to avoid the things that stress you and your dog out.
I help:
-
Dogs overwhelmed by noisy streets, busy parks, or constant stimulation find confidence and calm.
-
Owners frustrated with pulling on the lead, poor recall, or reactive behaviours rediscover the joy of dog walks.
-
Teams needing inclusive and personalised training, whether that involves accessibility considerations, pronouns, or lifestyle preferences.
Urban city life can be overwhelming for dogs and their owners. I provide tailored dog training solutions to help you and your dog handle these challenges with ease.
Your dog’s training needs to be as unique as they are - and that’s exactly what I offer.
Helping Urban Dog Owners Reclaim Joyful Walks and Stress-Free Living
I specialise in reactive dog training, as well as Romanian rescue dog training, and creating bespoke plans for dog owners who feel stuck, frustrated, or unsure how to improve their dog’s behaviour.
Together, we’ll help your dog feel calmer, more confident, and happier finding your calm amongst the hustle.
Together, we’ll create a personalised training plan that fits your lifestyle, respects your values, and helps you and your dog feel like a team again.

What East London Dog Owners Say:
"Freya was super friendly and helpful with our dog, who required some support to become less reactive around certain people and dogs. Freya gave us practical solutions that we could easily implement at home and outside, and also was able to make suggestions regarding potential medical issues that could have caused some of the behaviours we were concerned about. We would recommend her and will definitely continue working with her in the future."

Bethnal Green
"Freya has been really good at guiding us through managing our dog’s reactivity. Her training has meant that we are able to take our dog to places like the pub and down busy streets without it turning into a big drama for us and the dog.
Working with Freya was an absolute delight always friendly and more than willing to answer any questions."
Team Skye -
London Fields
"I enjoyed Freya’s approach, it was adapted to our family and the way we work rather than having a “one size fits all” structure that we had to adapt into. Freya was knowledgeable and really flexible helping us work on what was right for us as a family. Rather than telling us what we needed to do. As a result we have a happy puppy who has the skills we need."
Freya made me feel confident, even to ask stupid questions.
Team Sunni -
Mile End
"Working with Freya really surpassed my expectations. She really listened and understood the problems we were having with our reactive border terrier. Not only did we start seeing improvement quickly, walks became so much more fun and less stressful. Because of previous experiences I had with other trainers, I was apprehensive before working with Freya but I really needn't have been. I just wish I'd found her sooner!

Still Got Questions?
Where do the sessions take place?
Our first session will take place online, where we will deep dive into your dog's behaviour, history, set a plan and get some initial things in place. We’ll then move to in-home training, and then progress to outdoor settings like the park and local area when your dog is ready.
How long will it take to fix my dog?
Typically I work with dogs and their people for 4-6 sessions, this is in the form of fortnightly sessions. But sometimes the goal might be longer term and require more sessions. It's all on a case by case basis!
Do I have to train every day?
No! Training sessions only take a few minutes, so it’s easy to fit them into your routine.
I’ve tried positive reinforcement before, and it didn’t work.
Often, clients have tried tips from videos or trainers without proper guidance. With personalised coaching, you’ll learn the timing and techniques to make positive reinforcement effective.
Will I see results immediately?
You’ll notice changes in your bond with your dog within two weeks. Each session brings you closer to your goals.
Why can’t I book just one session?
Behavioural issues often have deeper roots. Multiple sessions allow us to address the cause, not just the symptoms, and give you ongoing support. A package ensures we cover all the bases and give you the accountability to succeed.
