A genuine passion for dogs.

Pet care experience

As the proud owner of two gorgeous dogs, I know how important it is to show them a bundle of love and the need for exercise to keep them happy and healthy. I love to exercise and regularly take my dogs on 10km hikes and would go even further if only they had longer legs!!!! This is why I decided to become a dog walker and make it my full time job. I am a fully qualified dog trainer graduating with honors from Animal Behaviour College . I also volunteered at the SPCA at Wake County in the US where I used to live as part of my training.I have my puppy diploma from the centre of Excellence in the UK. I also completed a course on leash reactivity and a diploma on Nutrition in dogs. I am always trying to improve my knowledge so that i have the best understanding of the canine world. My own two dogs have taught me more than any course or youtube video. Every dog has its own unique personality which I love to discover when I walk them or take care of them whilst you are away. Before retraining as a dog trainer i was a Primary school teacher for 20 years. I continually make comparisons between the two, every child learns in a different way just like a dog and both need continual praise and reassurance!!!! I have recently moved back to the UK from the US and am looking forward to meeting lots of new pups .

Victoria can always get our dog to go on long walks without us, which is no mean feat. She knows how to motivate reluctant dogs, and we'll always prefer her when looking for a walker.

At this point i do not offer pet care in my home due to having my own dog reactive dog. I do drop ins for those that are leaving their dogs overnight. I am happy to come as many times as you would feel necessary and at any time of the day. I am an early riser!!!!

Information Victoria L. would like to know about your pet

It is very important for me to know how your dog reacts on a leash. I have plenty of experience with this but it is good to know up front so adjustments to the walks can be made. i.e looking for a path less travelled. I also like to know if your dog is happy to be pet by strangers and children or if they prefer their own space.

A typical day

I like to take dogs on all sorts of walks . I am happy to follow your lead with regards to what you would like out of the dog walk. For some it's a sniffari allowing the dog to take the lead for others it can be a very quick walk with a good distance covered and for the oldies it can be a gentle sniff around the neighbourhood feeling the sun on their backs and the wind in their faces.. Every dog's need is different!!
