I’m Dr. Ella Preston, a veterinary surgeon and animal behaviour coach with over a decade of experience helping pets and their people from all walks of life. My mission is to help pets and their families live calmer, more connected lives.

After graduating from the Royal Veterinary College in 2013, I worked in small animal vet practices for 7 years. I then diversified into telemedicine providing video calls and remote support for owners, as well as writing content for blogs and pet symptom checker. My training included working with a Cypriot charity caring for shelter dogs and cats, as well as a UK charity supporting therapy pets, and pets in foster care. I’ve also had a range of pets myself, including rescue dogs and cats so have experienced the joys and challenges of pet parenting.

I discovered that many behaviour struggles aren’t just about training, they’re about understanding the emotions of both pet and owner, and how closely they are interlinked. I’ve now combine my veterinary background with further behaviour qualifications and life coaching so I can support you in creating calm, lasting change for your pet and yourself.

Through a compassionate, holistic approach that considers your pet’s health, lifestyle, and your family’s wellbeing, I aim to help you and your pet find more calm, confidence, and joy together. Most behaviour challenges take time and patience, but with the right advice it’s amazing the transformation you can achieve.
