Kate Soames

Kate has been involved in dog training throughout her life, competing in Sheepdog trials in her teenage years before turning her hand to helping others to train their dogs.

After witnessing first hand the impact dogs have on people’s mental health and stress levels while working in a corporate environment, Kate went on to set up Moment to Paws in 2020, which specialises in workplace dog therapy. Alongside this, Kate trains and assesses dogs to make sure they will be comfortable and suitable to engage in therapy work. 

Kate is a qualified dog trainer with the IMDT, as well as holding a Level 6 Graduate Diploma Applied Animal Behaviour. She is also lucky enough to have shadowed and been mentored by experienced Clinical Animal Behaviourists. Kate continually updates her knowledge through CPD. 

Kate prides herself on delivering positive, reward based training and helping owners to build fantastic relationships with their dogs.
