Professional Pet Care

Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. As the owner of The Paw Path, I provide calm, reliable and personalised pet care, treating every pet as if they were my own. I am fully insured, DBS checked and Pet First Aid trained, giving you peace of mind that your pet is in safe hands. Whether it’s an energetic puppy, a senior dog who enjoys a slower pace, or a cat who prefers quiet companionship, I tailor my care to suit each pet’s individual personality, routine and needs. At home, I care for my own Labrador, Cockapoo and Scottish Straight cat, so I’m experienced with different breeds, temperaments and energy levels. My Labrador, Loki, also has elbow dysplasia, which has given me valuable experience supporting a dog with mobility needs and ensuring walks are adapted to keep him comfortable and happy. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, which is why I prioritise communication, reliability and regular photo updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well looked after.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Every pet is unique, so I take the time to get to know their routine, personality and individual needs before providing care. My aim is to keep their day as familiar and stress-free as possible while you’re away. During dog walks, I provide safe, one-to-one walks tailored to your dog’s age, energy level and abilities. Whether they enjoy an energetic adventure or a slower stroll, their wellbeing and happiness always come first. For pet visits, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. This can include feeding, refreshing water, administering medication (where agreed), cleaning litter trays or cages, playtime, enrichment, cuddles and plenty of reassurance. I also provide regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I always treat your home with the same respect I would my own, ensuring it is left secure and tidy after every visit.

"Simply perfect" We could not have wished for anyone better to look after little Decca 🐶 From start to finish Kelly was wonderful. Went above and beyond. As long as she is available we won't ever need to look anywhere else. Can't recommend her highly enough ❤️ Thanks so much 🥰

Schedule

Caring for animals is at the heart of my daily routine. As the owner of The Paw Path, my days are centred around providing personalised pet care, whether that’s dog walking, pet visits or caring for small animals. My own pets- Loki, Izzy and Kasper, also keep me active every day, so spending time with animals is simply part of who I am. I carefully plan my schedule to ensure every pet receives the time, attention and care they deserve, without feeling rushed. Building trusting relationships with both pets and their owners is something I genuinely enjoy.

Before caring for any pet, I like to learn as much as possible about their individual needs, routine and personality. Every pet is different, and understanding what makes them feel safe and comfortable helps me provide the best possible care. I ask owners to let me know about any medical conditions, allergies, medications, behavioural traits, fears, favourite toys or treats, feeding routines and anything else that makes their pet unique. I also like to know about lead manners, recall, interactions with other animals and any situations that may cause them stress. Before regular services begin, I arrange a complimentary meet and greet. This gives us the opportunity to get to know each other, discuss your pet’s routine and ensure they’re comfortable with me before their first walk or visit. My goal is to provide personalised care that feels as familiar and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.
