Please do let me know of any issues or additional care that your dog requires, including but not limited to reactivity to others, any medications they are on and what treats they can/can't enjoy.

A typical day

On visits i will engage with, speak to and play with your dogs, using any toys or balls they choose. On walks we will explore the local area as much as possible, taking a variety of routes to provide new stimulation and smells to explore.

Ian has been walking my elderly Border Collie regularly for several months and she enjoys going out with him. He has had his own family dog for 10 years and understands the need for cuddles, attention and play. I also appreciate that he can be relied on to administer medication as required, and will wipe muddy paws!

Ian is polite, kind, caring and considerate. Animals seem to be naturally drawn to him and he is calm and attentive to them while being respectful of their boundaries. Our collie is very boisterous but Ian handles him with affection while managing to be firm and keep him in check, which he needs.
