Experienced and friendly dog walker
Pet care experience
I have always been around animals since the age of 8 when I looked after chickens in my parents garden. This quickly grew to include dogs. Then when I was older I had my own animals including rabbits, dogs, cats, a cockatiel. I have recently set up a dog walking and sitting website called Hislop’s Hounds. I’m currently working part -time on another business so have plenty of time to devote to looking after and playing with your animals. I can do most weekends aswell. I am surrounded by acres of open countryside and know where all the great walks are. I also have a professional car crate to transport your fur babies or can tether them on a back seat if that’s what their more used to. I always try and accommodate and replicate what you as their parents do with them so they feel comfortable and reassured with me.
Reviews
Absolutely great! I was worried since my cat doesn't like anybody...well she loves him!
Hislop’s are great at caring for my cat and rabbits when I go away. Always feel secure knowing they’re well looked after each time I’m on holiday.
Hislop’s hounds have been walking my dog for the last year. My dog absolutely loves being picked up and taken on walks - would 100% recommend!

Please let me know if your dog has any special dietary needs aswell as any negative behaviours that are going to need to be carefully managed when in my care. For example if they don’t like cats.
A typical day
I have several favourite spots I like to go with dogs in and around the North Hertfordshire area. I will only ever let a dog off in an enclosed area having got to know the dog and only then with the permission of the owner. I will also play with the dogs and tire them out mentally by stimulating them and extending their thought processes, this is normally done with the use of treats for rewarding them when they do well (positive enforcement)
