Highlights
Pet care experience
Calm energy, dogs come home happy.
With over 20 years of dog care experience, I bring a level of expertise most sitters can't match. Having owned multiple dogs, including large breeds, and gained hands on training experience along the way, I understand canine behaviour, energy levels, and individual personalities, so every walk is calm, safe, and tailored to your dog.
Cat care experience
Richard also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is my priority on every walk. I keep dogs securely leashed, stay alert to their body language and surroundings, and adapt my pace and approach to suit each dog's temperament, energy level, and any specific needs you share with me.
Ratings and reviews
Rich was fantastic with our rescue cat who’s quite nervous around new people. He was so gentle and patient with her. He was reliable and always punctual. Trustworthy and clearly cares about the animals he looks after. Would 100% book him again
Richard was absolutely brilliant with Bud . It was clear from the very first moment they met that Buddy would be in v safe, caring hands. All my fears and worries were alleviated within the first few minutes. Buddy would be cared for and spoilt while we were away Richard sent regular photos and updates of what they'd been up to, which was great. We couldn't recommend Richard enough, my only worry is he won't be able to fit us in next time!🐾
