Dog Walker, Dog Trainer, and Pet Sitter🐾

Pet care experience

I am an experienced and educated dog trainer well equipped to care for your fury family🐾 I cannot wait to meet them!
 Animal Science Bsc(Hons) graduate (Behaviour, Welfare, and Conservation) now studying a Level 5 Diploma for the canine behaviour practitioner, with more than 5 years experience in the animal sector. I previously worked in a UK leading rescue centre (home to 'The Dog House' on Chanel 4) with dogs of all sizes, ages, and behavioural needs and am currently working in another UK leading canine rescue charity. I have also owned cats my entire life so would love to look after some furry felines too! 
I am available to walk your dogs big or small and I also offer drop in visits to tend to your furry family members. I just ask that your dogs are fully vaccinated please! 
My experience with high end needs cases means that you can rest assured if you know that your pet can find things a bit tricky and will be in good judgement-free hands. If your pet is pretty easy going and just needs a bit of extra companionship throughout your busy schedule, no worries, I'm great for that too! I am an experienced dog trainer and only use kind, welfare friendly methods as your pets well-being is always the highest priority. If you are seeking some help with training, general or more complex, I am happy to help. Training is of course an additional fee but this will be discussed with you before booking.

Destyn-Marie is so great with our 7 month staffy x mastiff puppy! She's very knowledgeable and has a wealth of knowledge to share. Ace loves her visits ❤

Safety, trust & environment

As I live with two dogs and one isn’t the biggest fan of unknown dogs, I do not offer pet sitting in my home so that every dogs needs are being catered for. I do require your pet to be fully vaccinated to reduce the risk of me bringing something into the home as I do live with dogs myself. I am happy to carry out any specific requirements that you have for your pet and can continue any training that you already have in place - but I will not conduct any training that puts your pets welfare at risk. If this is the case, I will explain my reasonings in a judgement free manner and suggest solutions if you deem it appropriate.

Information Destyn-Marie B. would like to know about your pet

Please make me aware of any special requirements that your pet has ahead of time. I will not refuse you if your pet has a disability or a behavioural issue, but letting me know in advance allows me to be well equipped and maintains the safety of myself and your pet! It is really important to let me know if your pet is on a specific diet to avoid any mishaps with teats or if they cannot have treats.

A typical day

The activities provided all depend on your dogs individual needs. Whether that’s a fun walk in the park, scent work, enrichment activities, an appropriate play session, fulfilling breed specific outlets, some company and lots of love, or training activities such as loose lead walking, improving recall, environmental desensitisation, muzzle training, or improving your dogs reactivity. All activities are centred around fun and welfare and aim to provide your dog with the things that they need to live a fulfilling happy life.
