Dog Lover with years of experience

Pet care experience

I have always had a passion for dogs and a love for the outdoors. With 30 years of experience in dog walking and pet care, I am dedicated to providing services that cater to the individual needs of each dog. I have passed an animal care course level 3 I offer a range of services including group dog walks, solo walks, pet sitting, and customized care to meet the unique needs of each dog. My mission is to provide compassionate and reliable care. In my spare time I have volunteered at the rare breads farm in Hadleigh. Also part of the Cinnamon Trust where I help out with walking elderly peoples dogs when they can no longer do so. I believe that a happy dog is a well-exercised dog, and I am committed to making sure every dog in my care gets the attention and exercise they deserve." Ready to give your dog the exercise and care they deserve? Contact me today to schedule a consultation and find out how we can help meet your pet's needs.

Absolutely amazing. Would give more stars if I could. Treated the dogs like royalty and cared for them as much as we do. Was able to meet our needs and was flexible with us. Will definitely use Karen's services again and can't recommend her highly enough

Always nervous when using someone new but Karen kept me informed, had met Rango and I beforehand, she is really good with him and very experienced. Rango was especially pleased to have a new friend and I no longer need to worry about rushing home for him. All in all a great match! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I can help out walking, house sitting, visiting / stay over weekends at owners house. I would prefer not to look after puppies or lively dogs. …

Information Karen A. would like to know about your pet

Important to know the nature of the dog. Whether they get aggressive or irritable around other dogs, cyclists or runners. It is also important for me to know that your dog has good recall.

A typical day

I am and always have been a devoted dog lover I would like to help out with walking and sitting dogs. I have years of experience with different breeds of small and large dogs; I have always had dogs in the family. I have beautiful fields just a walk around the corner - perfect for daily walks I can pick up your pet and take them over the fields for a lovely walk - they would normally stay on a lead unless you want off if they are well trained. If you would rather keep your pet in their own home I will quite gladly look after your pet and sit and take them for walks they will be treated with love and care. I would send videos and photos of your beloved pet every day if you so wish to show they are fine and happy they will be fed accordingly to your instructions.
