POSITIVE REWARD BASED DOG TRAINING IN KENT
About Me
I'm Lauren Holland, a dedicated dog trainer based in Maidstone, committed to enhancing the lives of dogs and their owners through positive, reward-based training methods. Since 2017, I've been helping families build strong, loving bonds with their canine companions, addressing everything from puppy basics to behavioral challenges. Inspired by my own dogs, Dot and Phil, my approach is rooted in empathy, understanding, and a deep belief in the power of positive reinforcement. I'm a qualified member of The Institute of Modern Dog Trainers and pride myself on continuing my professional development through ongoing studies. With this I bring a unique blend of expertise and enthusiasm to every session, aiming to make training a joyful journey for both dogs and owners.
I offer more than just training; I offer a pathway to a happier life with your dog

What Pet Owners Say
"Incredibly patient"
"Lauren helped us so much with recall and lead walking for our 3 year old cocker spaniel. Lauren was incredibly patient and really understood our needs and what we wanted to achieve but also taking into account what would fit into our lifestyle."
"Lauren is amazing"
"Lauren is amazing at what she does, I came to Lauren with my XL Bully Diamond who I rehomed, finding it hard to find classes that accepted us and was delighted when Lauren said we could join her classes! I enjoyed them very much and so did Diamond! I can't recommend her enough and my Diamond absolutely loves her."

"WOW"
"WOW Lauren has really helped us training our rescue dog. We were in a situation where we nearly had to send her back to the rescue as we couldn't get her under control. We could not have kept her without the help of Lauren and I'm so grateful. The 1-2-1 sessions have helped so much and she's already a different dog. I also recommend the back to basics class as this really helped too."
