About Jayne

For years, I considered myself an ethical vegetarian, and my passion for understanding animals led me to study them all the way up to Master’s level. I’ve been fortunate to train directly with some of the world’s leading dog behaviourists and to attend countless lectures, seminars, and webinars from the best in the field. Continuing to learn and grow is not just something I enjoy — it’s essential to ensuring I share the highest-quality knowledge with others.

My journey into volunteering started as a way to gain hands-on experience with cats and dogs, but it quickly became much more than that. I discovered how deeply rewarding charitable work can be. The Cinnamon Trust, in particular, holds a special place in my heart — their mission to support elderly pet owners in caring for their beloved companions is one I feel strongly about.

I also spent 10 years volunteering with my local RSPCA branch, serving as a trustee for five of those years — experiences that deepened my appreciation for the incredible impact volunteers can make.

If you have even a few spare hours each week and a love for animals, I wholeheartedly encourage you to get involved with your local charity. You don’t need to be a full-time pet owner to make a difference — sometimes, just a little time and care can change lives, both human and animal alike.
