Local loving dog walker

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 responded to a last minute request and took great care of our 2 dogs. Her updates and pictures were greatly appreciated, allowing us to enjoy our family trip without worry.

Dolly and her family welcomed my dog,Chloe, into their home. We couldn't be happier with the care that Dolly provided. Dolly sent photos and updates and notes on how Chloe did on her stay. I would highly recommend Dolly for the excellent care she provided. Dolly is a five star caretaker!

We had a horrible experience with rover. We had planned a trip to Hawaii months in advance and we trusted our cats to a cat sitter Dolly. The first few days she always showed up late to feed them which we were fine with. Dolly left them 24 hours without food without telling us and we only found out through our camera. Later she sent someone else to feed them after we confronted her. The cats were given the wrong meals and one of our cats got ill because she has IBD and is on a special diet. We cut our vacation and lost thousands of dollars between non refundable hotel and flights and time off work that we couldn’t use.

Pets

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!!!
