Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable walks, drop-ins & daycare
Trustworthy and friendly, I offer dog walks, dog & cat drop-in visits, doggy daycare, and some boarding. I'm fully insured and DBS checked, and I take the time to get to know each pet's routine and personality, so they're comfortable with me quickly. Whether your dog loves a good walk, some playtime, or just chilled-out company, I'll make sure they're happy and looked after throughout our time together. WALKS I get to know each dog's pace, their favourite routes, and what they're like on and off the lead. I've got space for a few more regular weekly walking clients at the moment, and one-off walks are just as welcome; message me to check availability. DROP-INS Some dogs are happiest at home. Drop-in visits mean a toilet break/walk, some playtime, or just company, without them having to leave somewhere familiar. DAYCARE For longer days, your dog gets a calm space to relax and play, with walks, garden time, and attention throughout the day. CATS I also do drop-in visits for cats - feeding, playtime, litter clean or a check-in while you're out. I’ll make sure your cat is comfortable and content in their own home. You'll get photos and updates so you know how things are going. Looking forward to meeting you both.

Ratings and reviews
Sam and Coco were amazing. Very detailed and thoughtful visits and reports. They clearly cared for Oreo during what turned out to be an eventful and at times difficult sitting. I very much appreciated their going the extra mile. Communication was above and beyond. Will definitely use again and will highly recommend.
Sam was brilliant. She sent lots of updates and made sure Winston was ok in the extreme heat, taking lots of extra care to make sure the house was aired for him. We felt so reassured and came home to a very happy cat!
Amazing as always!! Goes extra mile. Highly recommend!
Samantha was amazing, she kept me up to date and gave Nellie the best care.
Sam looked after Buxton for a few days over the weekend and did a lovely job. Buxton was happy and settled when we got home, and Sam was friendly and easy to communicate with throughout. Would happily book again — thank you, Sam!
Samantha was so great with Bailey! Such a doll and sent me updates with pictures of him while I was traveling and my husband was at work. Really appreciate her efforts and patience with him. He had a lovely walk and really took to Sam well. Thank you so much for taking care of our boy!

Schedule
Pet care is my main focus day to day, and I keep my schedule flexible to fit around regular walks and bookings. I'm generally free during weekdays and can usually accommodate mornings, afternoons, or a mix depending on what works best for you and your dog. Weekend availability can vary, so it's best to check with me directly.

Safety, trust & environment
I've also got a car, which means I can nip between bookings easily across Surbiton and the surrounding areas, and stay flexible if you ever need me at short notice — whether that's an early morning walk or a last-minute daycare day.
Pets
A typical day
Walks are safe and relaxed, matched to your dog's pace - with plenty of time to sniff or play. Daycare includes walks or garden play, rest time, and attention throughout the day. Drop-ins follow your dog's usual routine, with feeding, play, and company in their own home.
