At Wagg ‘n’ Heels we offer home from home dog boarding and daycare, walking and training, where the well-being of your dog is our top priority.
Hi, I’m Elaine, and I am a lifelong and dedicated dog lover. I have shared my life with dogs for many years and have always been deeply passionate about dogs and their welfare. I believe that every dog deserves to feel safe and to be treated with love and respect.
In 2017, I started my dog-walking business, but I soon realised the need for more services, such as day care and holiday boarding. I understood just how stressful and upsetting it could be to leave our beloved pets, so I obtained my boarding license from Havant Borough Council and started offering these services at WAGG ‘n’ HEELS.
I feel privileged to be able to pursue my dream of running my own business and caring for dogs. I strongly believe in kind and ethical treatment, and I am dedicated to understanding their individual needs and behaviours and the best ways to support their care, health, and happiness.
Rest assured, your beloved pet will be in safe hands.
Wagg ‘n’ Heels is fully insured, is canine first aid trained & is qualified in Professional Day Care and Boarding. IMDT (OFQUAL) LEVEL 3
Licensed by Havant Borough Council with a five-star rating License no: 03192.
I am proud to announce I am now a member of The Dog Trainer School. As a member, I adhere to the guidelines of the Professional Standard and work with kindness, care and empathy to all.
Training plays a vital role in your dog’s life journey and it should be a fun and rewarding experience, not a chore. My goal is to help you better understand your dog while building a strong and trusting bond that lasts a lifetime. I am here to support you through any training or behaviour challenges by working together as a team to achieve positive results.
Using modern reward based methods and positive reinforcement, I focus on building your dog’s confidence and trust. I take a holistic approach because every dog and owner is unique. By adapting training to suit individual learning styles, emotions, and environments, I ensure effective and enjoyable learning for both you and your dog. This personalised approach promotes lasting behaviour change and strengthens your relationship.
As a qualified IMDT Easy Peasy Puppy Instructor, I specialise in positive, reward based puppy training. Classes cover all the essential foundations – such as recall, loose lead walking, toilet training and managing teething – as well as developing real-life skills to support you and your puppy together as a team.
So, whether you are welcoming a new puppy into your home, or are preparing for one soon, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. Together, we’ll help build your relationship, develop confidence, trust and understanding, strengthen your bond and set you both up for a happy future together.
Hoopers is a fun, low-impact, dog sport. Where your dog navigates around a flowing course of hoops, barrels and tunnels – no jumping involved! It’s all about teamwork, so whether your looking for a new way to bond with your dog, build confidence or just enjoy some active time together, our Hoopers sessions are an ideal way to do just that.
Because it’s low impact Hoopers is suitable for all breeds, ages and abilities. Come and give it a go!
These are designed to address your specific needs and those of your dog. I understand that not all dogs cope well or are comfortable in a class setting. This individualised approach is particularly beneficial for dogs that may be anxious around other dogs, easily distracted or have specific behaviour or training needs that require personalised attention. My aim is to provide a positive and effective learning experience tailored to your dog’s abilities and goals.
Our Life Skills & Confidence Club is designed for owners who want to continue training with their dog in a fun, supportive and positive environment.
Suitable for dogs of different ages and stages, including adolescents and adult dogs as well as puppies who have completed their foundation training.
Classes focus on practical, everyday training while helping your dog to become more comfortable, engaged and responsive in a variety of situations. Sessions are relaxed and enjoyable, with plenty of opportunity to practice for real-life distractions, while strengthening the relationship between you and your dog.
Exercises may include:
Training is taught using positive reinforcement and force-free methods, with an emphasis on building trust, understanding and teamwork. Small class sizes allow for individual support and guidance.
Is this class suitable for my dog?
As this is a group class, dogs need to be comfortable enough to settle and learn in the presence of other dogs and people. Dogs do not need to interact with one another, and appropriate space will be maintained throughout the class.
If your dog finds being around other dogs or people difficult, becomes highly stressed, or is unable to settle or work at a comfortable distance, please contact me before booking so we can discuss whether this class is the right environment for them.
Whether you want to improve everyday manners, build confidence, strengthen existing learning or simply enjoy training together, Life Skills & Confidence Club provides a fun way to continue your dog’s training journey.
Here at Wagg ‘n’ Heels we offer a reliable & fun dog walking service where every dog is provided with an opportunity to exercise in a safe & secure setting. Our dog walks encompass a walk and train approach, filled with enriched, enjoyable interaction with us and other canine companions.
Our dog walking service can provide your dog with supervised social interactions and exercise during the day when you are out at work, have other family commitments or if you struggle to give your dog the exercise they need. Exercise is not only important for your dog’s physical health, it is also hugely beneficial to their mental health too. Providing opportunities to explore and investigate different environments, discover new sights, and smells can prevent boredom & behavioural issues. Rest assured your dog will be happy and relaxed after a good walk.
We offer both group and one to one walks. Groups will be selected with no more than 4 dogs at a time whilst in public areas. Dogs will be matched according to temperament, play styles and any specific needs. With permission, they will have the opportunity to run off lead, socialise, burn off that energy and of course, have fun!
One to one walks are a great choice for nervous, anxious or reactive dogs that may struggle in a group setting and will receive undivided attention and a walk bespoke to their individual needs.
