Information Dolly M. would like to know about your pet

Is there any medication needed, age of dog, any special care for your dog, does enjoy a variety of activities such as running, jumping, rolling, lounging, playing, posing, or fun activities such as a play fetch, tug-of-war, etc.

A typical day

Walks and Hikes I will take the dog for a walk around the neighborhood or a hike in a local park. Play Fetch I will use a ball or a frisbee to play fetch in a safe, open area. Training Sessions I will spend some time teaching the dog new tricks or reinforcing basic commands. Use positive reinforcement with treats and praise. Relaxation Time Spend some quiet time with a nap on the couch and give your dog a gentle massage to help them relax. Visit a Dog Park If your dog enjoys being around other dogs, I can take them to our local dog park where they can run and play freely. Bath Time If your dog needs it, I will give them a bath. Make it a fun experience with plenty of praise and treats. Photo Sessions Capture some cute moments by taking photos of your dog and sending them to you if you would like. This may be a good way for you to not miss your dog as much while you’re away or at work. I will always consider the dog's energy level, preferences, and any specific needs or restrictions they might have. Can’t wait to meet your pup!!!

Local loving dog walker

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Dolly McAlee – a lifelong Malvern local and proud dog lover! I started this dog walking service to give busy pet parents peace of mind and pups the care, attention, and exercise they deserve. Whether it’s a brisk morning walk, a mid-day stroll, or just some extra love while you’re away, I treat every dog like my own. Dependable, friendly, and fully focused on your dog’s happiness and safety—I’m here to make tails wag all over Malvern.

Dolly took care of our two dogs for 5 days and nights and they were SO WELL LOVED by her whole family. Well taken care of, and we received lots of photos of how much fun they were having. No hesitation to recommend Dolly!

Dolly was very friendly and responsive. She sent lots of updates and made sure he was well taken care of, including paying attention to his special needs. We would gladly book again.

Dolly and her family were incredible with my dog Maile. It was her first stay with them and I was worried she would be a little anxious but they were so loving and Maile had so much fun!

My dogs had such a great time with Dolly and her family- they came home happy and ready for a good night's sleep. Looking forward to a longer stay with Dolly soon!
