A great lover of the outdoors I am out hiking or running in the beautiful surroundings of the Peak District daily with my own rescue hound Rupert. I've grown up with dogs of all sizes and been lucky enough to have three of my own rescues. My current boy Rupert was adopted at 11 weeks and I have trained him to be a friendly and obedient beast (he's 45kgs!). I have a dog training diploma and canine first aid qualification and I'm in the process of studying for diplomas in dog behaviour and nutrition to formalise my experience. I also have two moggies, Loki and Stewie who we adopted from a local farm who love the wild environment we live in and their snuggles in bed every day.

Pet care experience

With a lifelong passion for animals, I've lived with pets in the Peak District since the age of six and started my first pet care role at just 13 years old. As a qualified dog walker and pet care provider, I hold a Dog Training Diploma (CPD, QLS) and a Canine First Aid qualification (CPD, UKRLP), giving you complete peace of mind that your dog is in safe, knowledgeable hands. Based in Chinley, I provide reliable and professional dog walking and pet care services throughout the local area, covering locations within a 5-mile radius. Whether your canine companion needs regular walks, one-to-one care, or expert handling, you can trust me to deliver a caring, experienced, and personalised service.
