Meet the Team

Bianca De Vos – Owner and Founder

Hello, I’m Bianca, the proud founder of Pawsitively Pet Sitting and Training. Alongside my beloved companions, Bingels and Batman. I’ve embarked on an enriching journey in the world of dog training.

Five years ago, my path to becoming a certified trainer began with the adoption of Bingels. Since then, I’ve been dedicated to expanding my knowledge and expertise in animal behavior, earning my diploma (DipCABT C.C.A.B.) and completing various specialized courses along the way.

When I’m not actively engaged in training sessions, you’ll often find me cozied up on the couch, enjoying precious moments with Bingels and Batman. It’s my passion to educate fellow humans about the intricate needs of our canine companions, fostering a deep understanding and nurturing the extraordinary bond between dogs and their humans.

Elle Knoesen – Trainer

Hi, I’m Elle, a passionate animal lover and aspiring specialized behaviourist. I hold a diploma in DogWise from COAPE and am currently furthering my education with a diploma in Animal Behaviour through COAPE. My goal is to help rescue dogs find the perfect home and adapt to their new lives, ensuring they receive the understanding and support they need.

My love for animals has been with me for as long as I can remember, but my journey toward making them a central part of my career truly began when I met my Labrador, Lila. She inspired me to dive deeper into canine behaviour, training, and rehabilitation.

Through my work, I aim to bridge the gap between dogs and their humans, fostering stronger bonds built on trust, communication, and compassion. Whether it’s helping a rescue dog settle into a new family or guiding owners through behavioural challenges, I’m dedicated to making a difference—one dog at a time.
