Safety, trust & environment

As a qualified and fully insured dog trainer, I am very responsible and will follow any instructions to ensure your pet is completely safe during my visits.

Information Janet W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any special needs your dog has, any training you’re working on, and any questions you may have - happy to meet up before your first booking to meet your dog and have them get used to me

A typical day

If there’s a local park where you’d like me to walk your dog, we can go there, or we can walk round the neighbourhood - whatever you feel your dog would enjoy more. A lot of dogs prefer a sniffy walk rather than going long distances so I’m happy to take the lead from you and your dog.

Kind and responsible dog lover

Pet care experience

After adopting a very needy rescue puppy in 2021, I studied to be a dog trainer so I could meet all her needs. I still volunteer with the rescue, advising new adopters who have issues with their new puppies. Before having my own dog and studying, I’d taken care of dogs since moving in with my partner in 2010, and before that we had a family dog too. I’m fully insured, and have lots of experience with lots of different breeds, including nervous and reactive dogs too, so your fur baby will be safe in my hands. I’m happy to walk and/or play with your dog(s), and administer medication where needed. Please note that house sitting is during the daytime/evening only - I’m happy to look after your fur baby if you have dog free plans but I don’t provide overnight stays.
