about Katie outen
Hi my names Katie, I’m currently living in Hove and have 2 years experience working with rescue dogs at Dogs Trust, where I have learnt about care, behaviour, handling, enrichment and nutrition. I’ve worked with all breeds, shapes and sizes, as well as a variety of age groups. I have worked with all dogs with a variety of behavioural issues, such as reactivity, dog aggression, guarding, high-stress levels, anxiety and fear-based issues including handling issues. I’m very understanding of each dogs little quirks and want to carry on working with dogs no matter their wacky ways. Since moving to Hove in November I’ve missed canine companionship. I would love to build a lasting bond with your dogs and keep them happy and stimulated when you’re not available to do so. I look forward to meeting you and your dogs.
about lisa gibson
Lisa has a long experience working and owning dogs. She enjoys the outdoors and as a child had many animals including horses, chickens, cats and of course dogs.
Her first job after leaving school was working in a horse racing stables but a career change to veterinary nurse resulted in a big move to London for the next 7 years. During this time Lisa’s experience with, and love of, dogs quickly grew.
