Nadia Nelson

With experience in the broadcasting media, tutoring students and assisting concerned dog owners, I have the ability to think on my feet and improve client relations and trust while building a reliable company reputation. I am patient, friendly and mindful of clients needs. In my spare time, I enjoy assisting dog owners with basic behaviour consultations and private clicker training classes as well as on-the-go training on behalf of the owner. I also love to spend time in my veggie patch and to make biltong.
