About Sinead
My name is Sinead Archbold and I am a certified Pro Dog Trainer (AbsoluteDogs). Growing up on a farm, I have always had a love of animals big and small. I now have two dogs of my own - Rocket and Phoebe. They are the reason I decided to study dog training and learn more about dog reinforcement and force-free training. I am a strong believer in positive reinforcement.

Certification through AbsoluteDogs means that I will be armed with dozens of games to keep your dogs entertained when we are out and about. I also understand that not every dog is comfortable with strangers, so I am happy to meet you and your dog out on a walk or come to your house for an introductory meeting or two. I'm happy to work with dogs on any kind of diet and give medicine or supplements as needed.

I am available for dog walking and if you so choose, I can work on simple behaviours with your dogs like recall, retrieve or loose lead walking. I have experience transforming a dog who pulls on their lead to a dog who chooses to stay nearby. Rocket used to pull on his lead like a steam train but through games and positive reinforcement, he now often checks in with me when we are walking. Alternatively, I also offer in home training sessions for you and your dogs. I can arm you with games that will improve your dog's confidence, optimism, self-control, focus and engagement.

Services Available:

- 30 minute Dog Walk (optional: loose lead or recall training): $30 (extra dog: $10)

- Dog training (45 min session in your home or chosen venue & 3 week training plan)

- House Visits ~15 mins (check food/water, toilet and play games with dogs): $20 per visit (or $30 for two a day)

Feel free to contact me with any questions and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Sinead kept in touch with me regularly. I love my dogs and miss them so much when I’m away so it was so nice to have some reassurance they were okay! Thank you Sinead!

Sinead is friendly and easy to deal with; she was responsive to our late request for dog walking/play for our dog Morris. Morris loved Sinead and she provided us with regular updates. I would recommend her and will use her again. Thanks again Sinead!

Sinead was amazing-I can't recommend her enough. She went above and beyond with Buddy, even doing some training with him. Buddy adored her, too. She was polite, curteous, and took excellent care of Buddy. I will definitely be booking her again soon!
