After being a dog walker for over 2 years, I have finished my studies with Victoria Stilwell Academy to become an accredited Dog Trainer.

This is truly a dream come true!

​Besides being a dog mum myself, I also volunteer with a rescue named All Dog Rescue Scotland.

Ana is brilliant, I took so much away from just one advice session! She helped me make a plan to deal with my dog's separation distress and even checked in with me regularly afterwards to see how things were going - so worthwhile, plus she is super lovely 🙂

Absolutely 100% recommend Ana! We have a Romanian rescue who is nervous around other people and dogs and Ana has been amazing in creating a tailored programme to help our puppy learn the basic commands and also increased my confidence in taking her out on walks - since starting with Ana the changes have been phenomenal and the best moment was when my dog got so excited so see after the 2nd training and ran towards her as she had built up a fantastic rapport over a short period of time! Ana had been fab at being flexible and even moved one of the sessions online last minute when I had covid - all in all I would definitely recommend Ana’s services 😊 More...

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ana! She has worked with Hendrick for the last 4 months and we just wish we’d started working with her sooner! Ana has helped us with numerous techniques for Hendrick to help us with keeping him calm on the lead and not pulling us over to see every dog, not pawing/jumping up and the dreaded recall. Ana has managed to improve Hendrick’s lead walking so much I’m now comfortably able to walk him with a pram alone on a harness which we were not able to do before. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ana for large/giant breeds - taking on a 40kg boisterous puppy is not for everyone. She is really patient and calming, always providing us with feedback on how he’s doing and keeping us on track with what we’re supposed to be doing at home to keep things consistent. And the cherry on the cake Hendrick absolutely adores her! More...

Ana is helping us with our puppy package training and she is brilliant. She is knowledgeable of rescue dogs and Romanian rescue dogs and she has a very clear way to communicate all points. She is very patient, polite and respectul. Our pup had the best time. Ana answered my million of questions and put my mind at ease. I definitely recommend her. More...

I approached Ana for a 121 training session for my Romanian Rescue Paula who is 4yo. Ana has a very friendly approach and clear with her advice on how to stop Paula pulling on lead and also to improve her focus on me when outside. I found this session very useful and I would definitely recommend Ana to anyone looking for help with their dogs More...

We signed our puppy Flash up to Ana’s Puppy Training Package. Flash is our first puppy and we wanted to make sure we started his training from an early age to set him up for success. The package is really well structured, with goals for each session (e.g. desensitising to scary things like hoovers!) but it is worth noting that Ana didn’t stick rigidly to them, asking lots of questions about Flash and his behaviours to adapt the sessions to what would be most beneficial to Flash (and us!) as individuals. To be honest, the package has probably taught us even more than Flash! Not only does she answer all of our questions and give us lots of tips, we learned so much from just watching her interacting with him. She is a magician! More...

We signed up for Ana’s puppy training package, and it has been great for us and our sprockerpoo Morty. We have all learnt so much, and it has been extremely helpful as Morty is our first puppy so Ana’s advice and help has been invaluable. Ana is great with Morty, Morty loves her very much! After each of the sessions Ana sent us an email with a summary of the session, and loads of helpful tips and answered all of our follow up questions that we forgot to ask during each session (Which in some cases has been a lot of questions!). She has also been very flexible with the timing of the sessions to fit around our work schedule, which has been highly appreciated. I would fully recommend Ana for your puppy training needs, and we plan to keep using her services after our final puppy training session. More...

We have recently taken a rescue poodle and are complete novices to dog care. Ana spent a very valuable 90 mins with us demonstrating and explaining key training and dog behaviour. Ana was very knowledgeable and communicated well with Molly the dog and with us! More...

Ana is incredibly helpful, thorough, and a total natural in understanding dogs. My 20 month-old spaniel has separation anxiety as a result of lockdown and my partner and I being around all the time. Ana came prepared and worked with us to find out the best training exercises for his needs, was excellent at explaining everything and conscious of not just immediate fixes but medium and long-term steps. Her follow up document was very tailored, easy to follow and effective, and Ana has been so supportive along the way! She's the best dog trainer we know, 10/10. More...

I have a very energetic 6 month old Dalmatian, and I have been struggling to control her when out on walks as she’s getting big and strong (24kg). One session with Ana and I can honestly say walkies are now so much more enjoyable! Ana is so lovely and knowledgable, and that one session alone has helped us so much! I’m no longer apprehensive, and I know Penny is enjoying her walks so much more now too ☺️ More...

I highly recommend Anna! Had our first training session this Thursday, in only 1 hour she helped me understand what my puppy was trying to tell me. She gave me some advice on how to stop the pulling of the leash and taught me how to get my puppy's attention when out and around many distractions. Only in one lesson, she gave me a lot of tips that were very easy to follow and understand. At the end of the training, she made sure everything she said to me was clear and even ask me if I would like to take some notes so I wouldn't forget anything. Some hours after the lesson she also sent me an e-mail with everything we covered which I consider very professional and helpful! Definitely will be back for more training! I'm sure my puppy loved the time spent with Anna! More...

Ana recently looked after our 11 month old Staffie, he had a great time with her going on walkies, playing ball and hanging out together. Ana kept me updated with pictures and texts, I couldn’t recommend her more highly, we will definitely be using her going forward for all our puppy sitting needs ! More...

from the very first time I met Ana, it was clear that she loved dogs and cared deeply about making sure that dogs and their humans could have the best relationship they could with one another. her training advice has been invaluable for me and my dog who had become reactive during the lockdown, and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone who’s having difficulties with behavioural issues. she’s kind, understanding, and non-judgemental. her positivity and genuine willingness to help have kept me coming back to her for anything from chatting about dogs to asking for advice in hard situations!

Q&As

The fact that I can change dog’s lives by helping their owners communicating with them

My first dog Artie inspired me to start my business.

I started as a dog walker and quit my job in account management to do so.

I realised I was my happiest self when I was around dogs.

I then adopted a second dog,Zelda, a rescue from Romania, and she was the one that pushed me to want to be a lot better at training.That’s when I decided to join the Victoria Stilwell Academy and become a dog trainer.

I was a wavy dog owner but I realised there was still so so much to learn.

Besides being professional, I’m honest and I care. I also design training plans and send them to the owners, that has proven to be very successful.

If owners would like to book an online session I can definitely make that happen. Just give me a call directly on 07802653942 email me on alrmoliveira@gmail.com or find me on Facebook or Instagram by “anaswalkies”

Services

£125.00
The Puppy Training Package was designed to make sure you have all the necessary tools to raise a well socialised, confident puppy.


This Package includes 5 x 60 minute training sessions. Each one has been carefully designed by me but you are always free to bring questions to the table.


You will learn how to create a daily routine, how to guide your puppy through the 12 basic commands and how to prepare your best friend to adapt to the world inside and outside your home.


As a Dog Mum of two I wish I had encountered a plan like this when I had my two pups.

50£/90 minutes

A first consultancy is always a bit more lengthy as before assessing any behaviour problems I like to learn as much as possible about your dog. From their routine to the way they interact with the faintly or other resident dogs.

Any follow up training sessions tend to last 60 minutes. The cost is 30£ per session.
