Knowledgable and thoughtful care.

Pet care experience

Currently I have a 5 year old rescued female Malinois, who has taught me the importance of time, care, creativity and fun for creating happy, fulfilled dogs. I am undergoing qualifications in dog behaviour and animal assistance/ first aid which gives me the ability to truly understand the way the dogs body functions and the mind works. This paired with the experience of having a high energy dog of my own has provided me with the mindset of fully grasping and enjoying time with a dog.

James is brilliant! I met him before booking him to walk my girl. He was on time, kind and attentive, gave me updates and photos and put my mind at ease that she was with someone who would look after her and keep her safe. Thankyou James!

This is the third time James has looked after Dante and he’s is so good with him. Really takes into consideration Dante’s mood that day (hyper or lazy 😅) and adapts his walks accordingly. It really shows that he cares for animals and Dante loves him. So glad we found you James!
