I love all dogs!Big and small, chill and crazy!!

Pet care experience

I have worked with many breeds of dogs from a young age, I have experience training huskies, German shepards, staffies among many other breeds. I currently have a very energetic working line German shepard x staffy who is extremely people and animal friendly. I have training in animal behaviour and I am currently a zoology student at Cambridge University, so I have a wide range of expericen from canines, birds and even reptiles. I have also trained with the British army dog unit. My passion for dogs and their health is second to none. I would love the opportunity to walk and train all your happy girls and boys whether they are riddled with energy or cosy couch potatoes I will always put your animals happiness health and safety first at all times 😃

Craig was great, he met us when we couldn't find the right building, putting us at ease straight away. He couldn't have been more friendly to Cooper who excitedly went off with him without looking back. We had regular updates with lots of photos and he came back cuddly and worn out. Will definitely use again another time!

After initial contact and agreeing to help, I booked a short dog walk with Craig. However, he did not turn up or respond to any messages leading up to or during the arranged time slot.

Information Craig O. would like to know about your pet

Any health or dietary requirements for your dog would be very useful for me to know, if there is also any obedience training that your dog needs I am happy to assist.

A typical day

My typical day with a dog will solely depend on the dog I have in front of me, depending on the health and exercise requirements of the breed I will walk dogs, run with dogs and I also have everything needed for fetch should the owner be comfortable with their dog being off lead. I have multiple scent puzzle games for mental stimulation of your dog which is super important. In my area there are multiple parks and Greenland for your dog to enjoy as much nature as possible.

We are quite an active family and love enjoying many of the local nature reserves in the area in which many a canine guest has joined us on!
