Our Team
George Lewis
Founder
My journey into dog behaviour began in 2019 when I brought home Barney, a dog with more challenges than I was prepared for. Despite investing heavily in trainers, we struggled for years, until we finally found a few incredible professionals who truly understood us. That experience transformed not only Barney’s behaviour but also my perspective, and it sparked a passion that’s shaped my life ever since.
Determined to help others the way we’d been helped, I completed a Diploma in Dog Behaviour and gained hands-on experience by shadowing some of the UK’s top trainers. What started as a personal mission grew into something bigger, and Elevate K9 was born.
Through Elevate K9, I now work with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and behavioural challenges across Berkshire and Surrey. Especially those struggling with reactivity or anxiety. My approach is built around structured training and enriching walks that reinforce behaviour, promote progress, and prioritise the wellbeing of every dog.
With multiple certifications, years of hands-on learning, and a deep understanding of canine behaviour, I offer personalised training and walking services designed to meet each dog’s physical, mental, and emotional needs. Owners receive regular feedback and guidance to ensure consistency and long-term success.
Above all, I know what it feels like to feel stuck or unsure with your dog—and I know how much things can change with the right support. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your dog is safe, supported, and thriving

My journey with dogs began in childhood, and that passion has only deepened over the years. I now share my life with two incredible companions: Inca, a retired Belgian Malinois who served as a police dog, and Obi, a driven German Shepherd currently in training for IGP.
My professional involvement with dogs started through volunteer work with Surrey Police, where I was a puppy raiser. That experience gave me the chance to raise and guide the early training of a German Shepherd, a Labrador, and a Dutch Herder. Each of whom went on to excel in working roles.
I later spent three years at the Metropolitan Police Dog Training Establishment, where I developed a strong foundation in both practical handling and the care of police puppies. I had the opportunity to observe and support specialist training sessions, take part in military dog courses, and gain insight from seasoned professionals in the field.
Working with dogs has always been a huge part of my life, and I continue to learn, grow, and dedicate myself to helping dogs thrive in both working and home environments.
I’m incredibly excited to be apart of the team at Elevate K9. It’s a fantastic opportunity to grow alongside passionate professionals, and I’m really looking forward to everything the future holds.
