Pet care experience
Ex dog-owner seeks furry friends
I grew up in a cat household, which means I spent the first part of my life being quietly judged by animals who refused to fetch anything. Then a few years ago I got a labradoodle puppy and switched sides for good. My current schedule doesn't suit having a dog of my own, so I get my fix by walking other people's. I've looked after dogs at both ends of the temperament spectrum: several years with an anxious pup who taught me patience and compassion are non-negotiable, and regular walks with my sister's spaniel, who operates at exactly one speed (fast, chaotic, delighted). I'm based in Falmouth. Reliable, attentive, and I'll send you a photo update so you know your dog had a good time.

Ratings and reviews
Geoff and I owned a dog together, so I can absolutely vouch for how responsible and caring he is with dogs. Our dog, Whisky, was (and still is) a very sensitive soul with a few challenges - separation anxiety, and some nervousness around people and other dogs. Geoff handled all of this with real patience and understanding, so he’s very well equipped to support your dog. He would take the time to get to know your dog and help them feel safe and comfortable. He genuinely loves spending time with dogs, whether that’s getting out for walks, keeping them company, or just being there for cuddles. He’s kind, gentle, and reliable. He’d be exactly the kind of person I’d want looking after my dog, if he wasn’t hundreds of miles away
We’ve been so happy with Geoff as a dog walker for our two spaniels. He’s incredibly attentive, and you can really tell he enjoys his time with them—the dogs absolutely love their walks with him. It’s such peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. Highly recommended!
Geoffrey is a real animal lover and has been absolutely fantastic walking my cocker spaniels - very patient and loves spending time with them. I would thoroughly recommend him to look after your dog whilst you have other commitments as your pet will be in safe hands 🙂

Schedule
I work freelance, often from home, so my schedule is usually pretty flexible. I'm always keen to get away from my desk and explore somewhere green - ideal for dog walking!
