We recommend Victoria, she helped us with our dog since he was a puppy, then we had to call her again because we needed more training since I was pregnant and we definitely needed more help with our dog.
I am always happy with her training approach and the job what she does with our dog! Our dog loves her so much ♥️

Sandi Patel
Victoria’s dog obedience training was fantastic for our Cavapoo puppy - Koko. Even before our sessions began, she was incredibly helpful, sharing valuable materials and advice that really set us up for success.
As new dog owners with a young family, we faced a few challenges in the early stages. Victoria was a true source of comfort, always offering encouraging advice and support — never making us feel like we were asking too much, and never charging extra for her guidance.
The training sessions themselves were enjoyable and engaging. Victoria encouraged the whole family to get involved, which made a big difference. Her patience and the way she clearly explained each step of the training process made everything easy to follow and genuinely enjoyable. Her gentle, positive approach with our puppy worked wonderfully, and her guidance on when to use commands and rewards was especially helpful.
The convenience of Victoria coming to our home also made a huge difference for us.
We would absolutely recommend Victoria. Her passion for dogs and her belief in their potential is truly evident in everything she does.
All the best,
Sandi & Koko

Seshni Jacobs
We found Victoria after much research and great recommendations .
She was very good with our 16 month old Mini Jack Russell .
We were very concerned that she was too old for ‘puppy ‘ training but Victoria was great . Our entire family was involved in the training and it was very enjoyable . We were given techniques to use and practice and had two weeks between classes so that we could practice it .
We would definitely recommend Victoria - she developed a really good relationship with our dog who loved to see her .

Nadia Djalo
We couldn’t be happier with the experience we’ve had working with Victoria for our big breed puppy Yoki! From the very first session, it was clear she has a natural gift with dogs.
She’s patient, kind, and incredibly friendly, which instantly put both us and our pup at ease. What really stood out is how confident and knowledgeable she is — she knows exactly what she’s doing and explains everything in a way that makes sense.
He now listens to commands that we’ve been able to reinforce thanks to her clear direction, and we feel more in control and connected with him than ever before. She also takes the time to listen to us, making sure her training fits our needs and our dog’s personality, which makes the whole process feel collaborative and supportive. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trainer who is not only skilled but also genuinely cares about both the dogs and the owners she works with.

can’t recommend Victoria enough! She is incredibly kind, patient, and truly amazing at what she does. During every session she explains everything step-by-step, making it easy for me to understand and continue the training at home.
She always sends helpful videos afterwards so I can practise with Missy, which makes such a big difference.
Most importantly, my dog Missy absolutely loves her! Victoria has such a gentle, caring approach and it really shows in how Missy responds. I’m so grateful for all the progress we’ve made. If you’re looking for a trainer who genuinely cares and knows exactly how to guide you, Victoria is the one!

Sonu Singh
I have had the most amazing experience with Victoria!
She is so easy to talk to, happy to help and give advice on any pet related situation or matter.
I initially found her just to do some obedience training with my Puppy because he was super hyper and cheeky, however he loves her so much and relay enjoys his time with her we have just never stoped the sessions. She’s so attentive to each of her clients needs and tailors each session accordingly. My dogy Bueno is much calmer and far better behaved after his session with Victoria I highly recommend.
Victory also sends you fantastic manuals she writes her self so you can keep up the practice at home.
No matter your issues, I’m sure she can help with it! Most importantly she loves her job and you can tell from her interactions with your pet, it’s very genuine.
10/10 service I couldn’t recommend her more!

Thank you so much, Sonu for your lovely review — I really appreciate it. And thank you for trusting me with Bueno. I genuinely enjoy spending time with him, and I’m so happy we get the chance to work together regularly. Consistency and quality time make such a big difference for any dog, and it allows me, as a trainer, to do my very best with him. It was also a pleasure meeting your whole family. I truly appreciate everyone’s kindness towards me. ❤️
Jinxi Xu
We had a fantastic experience with Victoria’s dog training services. The courses were truly useful and practical, offering far more than basic training techniques.
Victoria shared a wealth of knowledge from her extensive experience—not only on how to read and understand dogs’ expressions and behaviours, but also on proper walking skills, everyday handling tips, health-related information and even on choosing suitable food products.
Her teaching style is patient, clear, and thoughtful, and she always takes the time to answer questions in detail. We genuinely learned a lot and gained more confidence in caring for and communicating with my dog.

Stephanie H
Our whole experience with Victoria Dog Obedience Training has been great! Moving from the US to the UK was very stressful and our sweet and anxious Retriever was not adjusting well to our new life here.
Being able to speak with Victoria really eased my fears before our start to training. She walked me through her recommendations after asking questions about our challenges and our expectations. My husband and I were impressed with how supported we felt as well as how ethical Victoria is with her business and with the dogs she trains. Every step of the way, we have received guidance and reassurance that the effort we put into training (at home) was showing up in the training (in session) with Victoria. Our main struggles were with reactive barking, severe anxiety, eating rubbish, and resource guarding.
Victoria is truly passionate in the wellbeing of dogs and she was invaluable in helping our girl gain confidence in her fears of everything from sirens to small children.
My husband and I are so excited to be able to continue on to explore more of the UK with our pup thanks to Victoria! We could not recommend and thank her enough!

Marie Ellis
We started working with Victoria because our dog was struggling with reactivity, and we didn’t know how to handle it anymore.
From the very first session, it was clear how knowledgeable and patient she is. She explained everything in a way that made sense, and more importantly, she showed us how to work with our dog using no harsh methods or tools.
At first, my husband was a little sceptical about achieving results with only force-free methods, as he grew up in a country and time where prong collars were considered normal. I personally didn’t agree with using anything like that on our dog, and thankfully Victoria was very clear and strict about not allowing such tools in her training. Of course, it took a bit more time to see results without quick-fix equipment, but protecting our dog’s emotions was far more important than shortcuts.
Over time, we’ve seen a massive improvement—our walks are calmer, our dog is more focused, and we finally feel confident again. Victoria has truly helped a lot, and we are so grateful for her guidance and support.
We can’t recommend her enough if you’re looking for real, lasting results with your dog’s behaviour.

We had the pleasure of getting Victoria to train Bree, our 4 month old Cockapoo. Being our first pet, we were very excited and nervous at the same time.
Victoria was excellent. Always on time, empathetic, focussed and clear with regards to her training methods and also to us.
She clearly is very experienced at handling the pet and their families. Bree loved her and also managed to learn the tasks quickly. Took us some effort to practise those.
Would highly recommend Victoria to other pet owners who wish to train their dogs.

Victoria was super understanding of our rescue Rodeos needs and what he needed to work on! She allowed us to watch and then practise and also made sure to send recordings of the sessions which was super helpful to go over and help reinforce the training in our own time! She picked up on certain things that he could work on that we may not have initially noticed and had such a calm approach! Her work is evident in the results and just the way the dogs love her shows the care she puts into each one! Would 100% recommend! X More...

I cannot thank Victoria enough for the incredible impact she’s had on my puppy, Bruno, and on me as a first-time dog owner.
From the beginning, Victoria was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. Bruno has not only improved significantly in his behavior and obedience, but he’s also become such a clever and confident boy—and it’s all thanks to her expert guidance.
Victoria didn’t just train Bruno; she also gave me the tools and confidence to fulfill my responsibilities as a dog owner. Her methods are effective, kind, and tailored to both the dog’s personality and the owner’s lifestyle. I’m genuinely grateful for everything she’s done. Thank you so much, Victoria!

Ben
We cannot praise Victoria enough! Our Labrador suddenly became reactive to other dogs and people, leaving us stuck at home due to our negative experiences outdoors. After trying several trainers—a balanced trainer who suggested an anti-bark collar and harsh methods that initially showed some improvement but ultimately worsened behaviour, followed by another force-free trainer with no noticeable results—we finally discovered Victoria online. Her glowing reviews encouraged us to give it another shot with force free training. During our first meeting, she asked detailed questions about our dog’s history, daily routine, and overall health, and suggested a vet consultation, which revealed a GI tract issue that required medication. With her expert guidance and the appropriate treatment, we are now witnessing significant improvement in our dog's behavior. Victoria truly demonstrates a deep knowledge and professionalism in her work. More...

Tahar Chaaou
I never thought my Husky-German Shepherd mix, Kira, could improve so much in just two days!
She used to bark and bite excessively, even for a shepherd puppy.
I tried everything. Mountain hikes, daily play, and all kinds of toys. Nothing worked.
Then I consulted Victoria. Even from a distance, Victoria was incredibly supportive, offering advice I never would have known.
After just two days of applying Victoria's tips, Kira’s biting decreased, the night crying stopped, and Kira became more responsive to commands.
If you're on the fence, start with a consultation. You won't lose anything.

Elina Ivanova
Viktoria is truly remarkable and has made an enormous difference in our lives. When we first started working with her, our dog Lucky struggled with severe separation anxiety and constant leash pulling.
Under Viktoria’s expert guidance, Lucky has transformed into a far more confident, relaxed companion. Not only is he now comfortable staying behind on his own, but he has also made significant progress with leash manners—even in exciting situations that once overwhelmed him.
What truly sets Viktoria apart is her ability to tailor her techniques to each dog’s unique character. She took the time to understand Lucky’s temperament and found an approach that allowed him to thrive. We’ve seen improvements we never thought possible, and the positive changes in Lucky’s behavior have brought more peace and enjoyment to our entire household.
If you’re looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and compassionate trainer, I can’t recommend Viktoria highly enough. Her professionalism, empathy, and skill have made all the difference for us and for Lucky.

She answered all of our questions about owning a puppy before we got Winnie and was always on call to answer any questions once Winnie joined our family. Her training is so easy and hands on, and Winnie absolutely adores Viktoria! Would highly recommend Viktoria and her expertise! More...

We did a group class and it was such a nice experience with training our puppy. Victoria was so helpful with everything and even though we were in group she gave us one to one tips and helped us all out individually. Would recommend to everyone.

Victoria has been amazing with my beagle, Coco, who struggled with separation anxiety. Thanks to her training, Coco has improved so much! Victoria is not only incredibly skilled but also so kind and approachable. She goes out of her way to help, even taking the time to chat on the phone if needed. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and effective dog trainer! More...

Thank you so much, Peter. I truly appreciate your feedback and am thrilled to hear about Coco's significant progress. I know how long and challenging this journey has been for you both.
What do you love most about your job?
I absolutely love working with dogs of all personalities, but the most rewarding part is seeing the joy on my clients' faces when they experience real progress with their dogs. Those breakthrough moments—whether it’s a small win or a big transformation—are what make this job so fulfilling.
What inspired you to start your own business?
My journey began many years ago with my family’s German Shepherd. Training him sparked a deep interest in canine behaviour, which soon grew into a true passion. Over time, I turned that passion into a profession, driven by a desire to help other dog owners build strong, positive relationships with their pets.
Why should our clients choose you?
I bring a unique mix of experience, empathy, and hands-on knowledge. This work is not just a job for me—it's something I genuinely love. I tailor every training plan to the individual dog because I understand that no two dogs are alike.
In addition to my formal education and years of real-world experience, my company is fully insured with Petplan, offering extra peace of mind to my clients.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes! I offer online consultations and training sessions, which are ideal for clients outside my immediate area or those needing flexible options.
In-person 1:1 training is available for both puppies and adult dogs, and I also run local group classes in Wembley, including indoor sessions at Wembley Park. You can find full details and schedules on my website.
ONLINE CONSULTATIONS / HOME CONSULTATIONS / CHOOSING A BREED
Support, guidance and training from the comfort of your home — Not sure where to start? Book a consultation (online or at your home) so we can assess your dog’s behaviour, goals, and lifestyle before choosing the right program.
Book a consultation if you’re:
- Unsure what's really going on or what’s the problem, so you don’t waste time or money booking the wrong service
- Dealing with something like toilet training, so you don’t overcommit when you just need a simple solution
- Preparing for a new puppy, so you can start with a plan and skip the unexpected mix of cuteness and chaos.
- Nail clipping (available only in Wembley)
- Needing help with general support from diet and enrichment to daily routines

BASIC OBEDIENCE TRAINING
£ 90 per session
Done-with-you foundational training—Perfect for dogs who are new to training or need to brush up on their manners. I’ll work hands-on with your dog in your home environment while teaching you how to reinforce everything between sessions. Across multiple sessions, we’ll:
- Teach key commands: sit, stay, down, come, heel, and leave it, not as tricks, but as valuable, everyday tools.
- Improve walk behaviour and calmness indoors so you can enjoy quiet evenings without always being on alert.
- Fix bad habits like jumping or poor recall so you’re not apologising at the park or chasing your dog down the street every weekend

1 and 2 WEEKS ACTIVE DOG TRAINING
£750 - 10 days
£375 - 5 days
Done-for-you intensive bootcamp — Your dog trains with me daily, without you, for 1 or 2 weeks. They get my full attention, and you get results with less stress. In the final session, we train together so you're confident, keeping things on track.
Here's how it works:
- I work with your dog 1-on-1 over 5–10 consecutive days for an hour session, no effort needed on your side (I pick up your dog and drop it back after an hour session)
- You receive updates and support, session videos, summaries, and guides.
- We wrap up with a joint session where you learn how to maintain the training, so you're not the only one in the house who didn't attend school.

LEASH / OFF-LEASH TRAINING
£ 90 per session
Focused control training — Whether your dog’s pulling your arm off or ignoring you at the park, this program tackles both on-leash manners and off-leash freedom with trust.
We’ll work on:
- Calm, loose-leash walking so your shoulder finally gets a break (and you stop bracing for every squirrel or cat)
- Focused attention around distractions, so you’re not constantly correcting or tugging the leash
- Reliable off-leash recall and boundary training, so your dog doesn’t turn every outing into a marathon
- Distance commands and hand signals, so you're not yelling for Bobo while everyone at the park watches

10 DAYS DOG REHABILITATION
£ 950
Done-for-you intensive training — your dog trains directly with me for the 8 days, without your presence. On the 1st day we are together and on the 10th day, you’ll have a handover session where I’ll:
- Explain what your dog learned and I did over the course of the 8 days
- Show you how to reinforce the new behaviour at home and support your dog
- Give you tools, instructions, and a follow-up plan to improve your communication with your dog
