Short and small, walks for all
Pet care experience
After 6 months of dog walking & sitting in other people's homes I am delighted to have been awarded a 4 star licence for Dog Boarding & Daycare - Licence 24/00235/AWBH I have been brought up with dogs and lived with them for 50 years. I have experience in walking friends and family dogs. I have done some voluntary dog walking for Animals in Need some years ago.  I have rescued numerous at various points in my life. I brought home one rescue dog from Greece when I was in my 20's – he lived happily until he was 17 years old!. My background covers everything from caring for elderly dogs (and therefore able to administer medication) to young puppies (I picked up my latest on Saturday, she is 9 weeks!) and everything in between I have just completed a Canine First Aid course and the Dog Business School - Start Your Own Dog Walking And Pet Sitting Business. I have been DBS checked
Reviews
I’ve known Tamsin for over 15 years and if there’s one way to describe her, it’s her mad love for dogs. I would trust her in a heartbeat with my cockerspaniel Rio, he loves her as he gets the most fuss & attention when she is around. Over the years she has had a number of dogs of her own, she’s devoted herself to them in every chapter of their lives, always knowing what they need & giving them just that. I couldn’t be happier for Tamsin’s choice to run her own business dedicated to dogs, it’s no surprise really, she’ll be the perfect match for any hound out there that needs a friendly loving supportive human
I still remember my surprise 30 years ago, when Tamsin joined us on holiday in Greece, with a dog! She has such a kind nature and affection for animals that she couldn’t resist taking in the poor thing. Tamsin very quickly bonds with dogs and has a special love for small ones with big personalities, a bit like herself! I couldn’t be happier for her setting up this business and wish her every success.
Tamsin is an exceptional dog sitter. She is extremely reliable and truly enjoys caring for animals. She has superb experience and expertise, and quickly bonded with our dog who loves spending time with her… A true home from home for our dog.
Tamsin has walked and looked after our dog on numerous occasions. Billie is always happy to see her and I can leave knowing she will be well looked after and enjoy her time with her. I have seen Tamsin with lots of dogs with differing personalities and needs. She treats them all with love and caters for their individual requirements. I totally recommend Tamsin as a responsible and caring dog walker and pet sitter.
