Safety, trust & environment

Recently retired(but still a full time dad to 2 daughters ) after 28 years of being a firefighter , during which I was also a P.T at the station. So if your dog needs a relaxed walk or full on run for 5km I can cater for both or even just a chill on the sofa . I’ve been DBS checked through out my fire service career and I was also DBS checked in recent years for volunteering at my daughter’s school . I will only be walking / looking after one dog at a time (unless from the same household) so I can concentrate my full attention / efforts on looking after your special one.

Gary did a great job with a 30 minute drop in for our dog Percy. He was reliable, friendly, and clearly cared about making sure Percy was happy and well looked after. Would highly recommend

Gary was very accommodating to our request for a pre-meet before a drop in session next week. Within 2 minutes of being through the front door Percy was his best friend. Gary clearly knows a lot about dogs and is very experienced with them. He was flexible with what we ask and attentive to what Percy would need while we are away. Highly recommend! Thank you again for coming over and I’m sure Percy is looking forward to seeing you again next week.

Gary has been great for Bobby dazzled, he's not bothered by his little acts of reaction towards other dogs, taking him under his wing and making him feel safe. Bobby seems so happy to go with him, nearly knocked us out the door today once he saw who it was. Cheers Gary.
