About our guest:
Jen is a dog trainer and dog walker based in Bedford, England. Training wise, she specialises in behaviour, obedience and house training, but enjoys trick training with her own dog Red who is a Belgian Malinois.
Jen created her business, Fetch Club, almost 3 years ago with a view to offering pack walks with an element of training as she felt that’s what her own dog would thrive on. Business really took off after about 1 year and as the pack sizes grew to 8 dogs on a walk, the company grew too with the business securing a second vehicle and multiple staff members. Jen also started offering training and began to build a buzz and community in her town after seeing lots of success with clients. Jen has big plans for the future and is constantly excited about what’s next for the business!
