Dog Walking in Birmingham

About: Hi! I’m a young professional living with my boyfriend in a spacious ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter. We are both huge animal lovers and grew up with dogs and cats, so we’re very comfortable caring for pets and understand the attention, exercise, and affection they need. I work from home one day a week and am available to look after dogs on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. We love spending time outdoors and would ensure your dog gets plenty of walks, playtime, and attention throughout their stay. I am available for check ins/ dog walking lunchtimes in the Edgbaston area. We have a car, which means we can also take dogs out to the countryside for longer walks and adventures. Whether your dog is energetic and loves exploring or prefers a more relaxed pace, we’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. We’re genuine dog lovers and would treat your pet as if they were our We would love to look after dogs from Thursday through to Sunday. I work from home on Fridays, which means I can provide plenty of company throughout the day and take dogs out for lunchtime walks as well as morning and evening exercise. We’re very relaxed when it comes to pets and are happy for dogs to be on the sofa and feel at home with us. Our day usually starts around 7am on work-from-home days and around 8–9am at weekends, so we’re well suited to dogs that enjoy an early start as well as those who prefer a slower morning. We’re happy to tailor activities to your dog’s needs, whether that’s long countryside walks, shorter local walks, trips to the park, or simply relaxing at home. If your dog is sociable and enjoys being out and about, we’d be happy to take them to dog-friendly pubs or restaurants. Equally, if they’re more of a homebody, we’re more than happy to spend cosy evenings on the sofa with plenty of attention and cuddles. We live in a spacious one-bedroom ground-floor apartment in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter, with easy access to several local parks and walking routes. We enjoy getting outdoors and regularly go on walks around the local area, and we also have a car, which means we’re able to take dogs on longer walks to larger parks or out into the countryside if they enjoy exploring further afield. We’re very flexible and like to tailor our routine to each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your dog prefers a quick stroll around the block, a trip to the park, or a longer adventure, we’re happy to play it by ear and do what makes them happiest. We’re very laid-back pet lover and want dogs to feel completely at home with us. We’re happy for dogs to be on the sofa and, if permitted by their owners, on the bed too. The apartment has hard flooring throughout, making it practical, easy to keep clean, and comfortable for dogs.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was young. Life would be so boring and completely pointless if it wasn’t for these beautiful furry friends! I have experience walking groups of dogs and looked after 3 dogs for a whole week whilst home sitting. Best week ever. I currently work from home, so I have plenty of time to be there for whatever they need. I love walks so taking a furry friend will be a breeze. My home provides a calm, secure environment with space, cleanliness, routine, and constant supervision, ensuring any animal’s safety, comfort, enrichment, and well-being at all times.

About: I've basically grown up surrounded by paws and wagging tails - there's been a dog in my life since before I was even born! I adopted my two golden fur babies from different families, and they're now living the royal life back home in India with my family while I study overseas. I miss them every single day, so spending time with other dogs here would make me so happy. I've got around 22 years of experience with dogs and a lifetime of love (and slobbery kisses). If you ask me whether I'm a dog or cat person - honestly, I'd pet a crocodile if it dont think I am food! 🐾♥️ “I’m usually available from 2 PM to 10 PM, and sometimes till around 11:30 PM if I don’t have early classes or assignment deadlines. I’m doing my post-grad right now, so my schedule can change a bit depending on unisveristy ~ This isn’t just a job for me — I really love being around animals and taking care of them I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets are treated like family. I follow their routine, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they feel comfortable and secure at all times

About: I've spent my life surrounded by animals. Over the years, I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, parrots, turtles, fish, ducks, sheep, and more. Each animal has taught me something new, and this variety has made me a patient, adaptable, and attentive sitter. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for a rescue Corgi with a limb amputation—a brave, spirited girl adopted from a shelter. Over two years, I learned how important gentle handling, consistency, and emotional reassurance are, especially for pets who need extra support. I’m always willing to give that extra time and care. I also share my home with two cats, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, routines, and behaviors. In addition, I have experience caring for small and exotic pets, including four years looking after a very long-lived hamster. I keep feeding areas clean, follow routines carefully, and can provide regular photo updates so you always know how your furry friend is doing. I’m also comfortable administering medication with clear instructions. What matters most to me is that your partner feels safe and cared for. I have a flexible schedule and can adapt to your pet’s routine. I’m available for both short-term and long-term care—feel free to get in touch anytime. I maintain a calm, clean environment, follow routines carefully, monitor behavior, and provide updates. In owners’ homes, I respect their space and pets’ familiar habits.

About: I grew up with an American Eskimo, Labrador and a Pomeranian. My love for dogs cannot be expressed in words. Be it watching dog reels on Instagram or petting a dog anywhere on the streets, they have always been my best friends. Their unconditional love attracts me the most. I am more friendly with them than with Homo sapiens xD I love to feed them, sleep with them, walk with them...all that I would ever do with my babies, a dog parent would understand <3 It’s me and my partner who look after pets. I live in city centre, B4. My building has gardens, parking, and lots of dog treats. I am available all 7 days. Your dog will never be left alone, will get regular walks and lots of cuddles. All I can assure is love and safety. I have taken care of my own dog for the past 11 years. I have plenty of experience of taking care of them and providing them what's needed. Our home is the most cozy place for your baby.

“Ben took my pup Loki for a walk whilst I had to attend the office. He was available last minute and communicated brilliantly. Most importantly Loki had a great time on his walk!”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my family home, moved to this city as a new venture and love any animals to fill my spare time I work full time. Generally able to look after pets from Friday evening across the weekend. Some Saturdays I may be unavailable. Get in touch ! Regular toilet walks would be provided as I am currently living in a pet friendly Apartment building. I will always be in the apartment or out walking with the pet.

“Vanda is thoughtful and patient, she takes a really good care of my dog. She sent pictures and videos while dog walking, and I can tell my dog is very happy around her.”

About: I’ve raised Lucifer since he was 8 weeks old and we’ve had Bala stay with us for the last year, so we know how to manage multiple dogs at the same time that have very different energies We work from home and our pets have seperation anxiety which means they are never left alone. We go on at least 4 walks a day, so if your dogs love the park or going on long walks then that would be perfect.
We will only accept pets if they are vaccinated, house trained, and good with other dogs.
We love taking photos of the dogs, so you'll be getting plenty of updates so better start making space for photos on your phone. My flatmate Peiyi is also there to take care of the dogs if I'm ever busy. I have a year old mini-goldendoodle named Lucifer who loves to play all day, so if you've got a pet that loves to play with other dogs then we would be the perfect household for dog sitting.
We also have a five year old korean jindo mix dog named Bala who loves to sleep all day, so if you've got a pet that loves to sleep and getting back rubs all day then we would be the perfect household for dog sitting.

About: After growing up with labradors and a cat, it’s hard not to love animals. I took care of the family pets until I left home and also worked in a cattery for 2 years tending to moggies from all backgrounds. Since then I’ve volunteered part time dog walking in Angus and adopted a hamster who lived for a beautiful 21 months. I used to work in mental health but am now studying my PhD looking to develop support for autistic students experiencing anxiety around school. Currently I work part time from home so have plenty of time during the week to make home visits and wander into the wilds! Due to my rota I will need notice to make sure I can accommodate your needs but will do my best to do so 😊 All pets will be treated as part of the family 😊 Unfortunately I can no longer offer daycare but at your home I will make sure to make minimal disruptions to your pets’ usual routine and keep them as comfortable as possible. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos, and also to accommodate rodents large or small!

About: Hi! I’m a passionate dog lover who enjoys spending time outside and making sure dogs get the exercise and care they need. I offer a variety of walks, including relaxed city park strolls, fun canal-side walks, and engaging “sniff and explore” outings to keep your dog happy and stimulated. I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for pets through helping friends, family, and neighbours, so I understand how important it is to provide safe, attentive, and loving care. Whether your dog needs a quick walk or a longer adventure, I’ll treat them like my own. As a student, I have a flexible schedule with plenty of free time to care for pets. I only have lectures two days a week—on those days I go for a run or to the gym, attend my lectures, then head home to make dinner and go for a walk. On the other days, I usually spend time at the library and take long walks. Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I’m available most of the week and can also schedule visits before or after lectures when needed. I adapt my care to each pet and what they need. For dogs, I offer fun, safe walks—whether that’s around local parks or along the canal—making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and time to explore. For cats, I provide relaxed, attentive care in your home, sticking to their usual routine with feeding, playtime, and lots of company so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m also someone who genuinely enjoys cleaning and keeping things tidy, so I’m always happy to help with small extras around the house if needed.

About: I used to work part-time as a dog walker in New York City whilst living there from 2016-2018 and it doesn't get much more stressful than that! I walked dogs all over the city with the Wag app and had a 5⭐️rating. I have experience walking all different types of dog breeds in one of the busiest cities on earth, so rest assured I will provide your dog with a safe and enjoyable walking experience. I am the go-to petsitter for my friends and family and have cared for small, medium, and large dogs, puppies and senior dogs. I am a lifelong animal-lover and grew up with a Dalmatian dog (Pebbles) and two cats (Poppy and Iris). I do not have any pets so your dog will get my undivided attention! I am currently working from home on a freelance basis so my time is flexible. I can structure my day around your pet's needs and provide plenty of walks and breaks outside. I live next to several green spaces and can easily access fantastic walking routes of all different lengths for your dog. I am an incredibly structured and reliable person, so I can cater my time around your pet.

“Holly was excellent. She took the time to come and meet our 1 year old pup before the first walk. They got on very well straight away! The post-walk updates were great and we loved the pictures. Holly was caring, knowledgeable, flexible and professional. We will definitely use her again and have no hesitation in recommending her to others.”

About: Hi there! I’m a dedicated animal lover, professional dog groomer, and the owner of my own pet services business. This has given me extensive hands-on experience caring for all kinds of animals from strong, protective guard dogs to independent, sassy cats. I’m confident handling different temperaments, ages, and needs, and always tailor my care to each pet’s individual personality. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to two cats and my senior dog, Charlie, who’s now 15. Caring for an older dog has given me valuable experience with senior pets, including gentle exercise, patience, and attentive care. I genuinely enjoy long walks, enrichment time, and making sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and loved. As a professional groomer, I’m also very comfortable with bathing, brushing, and general coat care when needed. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them isn’t just a job for me, it’s a passion. Your pets will be treated with the same care, respect, and affection I give my own. Pet care is my full time job. I spend my days taking dogs on solo walks, group walks, adventure hikes, and swimming trips. I also help puppies with socialisation, making sure they learn confidence and good manners in a safe, positive way. I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy, whether that means feeding, walking, playtime, or snuggles.

I’m fully insured, first aid trained, and DBS checked, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in safe, professional hands. Grooming, exercise, socialisation, and companionship are all part of the care I provide tailored to each pet’s unique needs.

About: ✨Passionate and Experienced: I’ve always had a deep love for animals. I spent a lot of time caring for my grandfather’s two dogs, feeding them and making sure they were happy and healthy. During my time working at a private café, I also helped my boss care for two dogs and three cats, handling their daily meals, activities, and walks. This hands-on experience has taught me so much about animal care. I’ve even looked after some stray dogs near my home, offering them comfort and companionship. These experiences have made me realize that each pet has its own unique personality and needs, and my goal is always to make them feel safe and happy. ✨Natural Affinity: Animals of all kinds have always come naturally to me—not just dogs and cats, but also rabbits, ducklings , hamsters, turtles, and so on.I treat them as true friends and companions, with patience and genuine care. ✨Patient and Genuine: One of my most memorable experiences was with a Corgi named Puff, whom I cared for regularly. His owner, concerned he might run off but unable to find the time to care for him properly, had kept him tied up in the backyard, which made him quite restless. I took him out to the park every day, bought him toys, and taught him how to play. Over time, he became much more cheerful and confident, even initiating interactions on his own. Seeing Puff’s transformation was truly rewarding. ✨Attentive and Responsible: Before caring for different breeds, I make a point of researching their specific needs, from diet and exercise to health considerations, so I can give them the best possible care. For example, I know that smaller dogs need extra warmth in winter, while larger dogs benefit from ample exercise space. I believe every animal is unique, and I strive to cater to their individual needs. ✨Energetic and Dedicated: I have plenty of energy and rarely get tired, so I can keep up with energetic dogs during playtime or walks, ensuring they get enough exercise and enjoyment. 🫡Reassurance: When caring for pets, I will keep owners updated with regular photos and short videos if they need , so they can feel connected to their pets even while away. For me, this is more than just a job—it’s a joyful journey of building a meaningful bond with each little life I care for! 🥹❤️ ⏰ Right now, I don’t have any other work commitments, so my schedule is very open and flexible. I’m usually available from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day to care for pets. So I can easily adjust to each pet’s routine, giving them the attention they need at the times that suit them best 🐶 Currently, I’m focused on offering dog walking and pet care in the owner’s home. For Dog Walking 🌳🦮 I will tailor outing based on the dog’s age, energy level, and personality, choosing safe, pet-friendly spots like local parks or green spaces. For younger or less active dogs, I opt for shorter, slower-paced routes, while more energetic dogs get longer walks to help them burn off energy. For Drop-In Visits 🏠🐕🐱 I‘ll make sure to follow the owner’s advice to keep the pet’s usual routine—whether it’s feeding, playtime, or rest. For pets with special needs, like puppies, senior dogs, or those with health concerns, I can adjust the activities according to the owner’s guidance to make sure they’re comfortable and safe. 📲I also keep in touch with owners regularly, sending photos or short videos after each visit so they can feel connected and know their pet is doing well 🐶😸

About: I always had dogs since I was a kid and always played with my little ball of joys. Always gave me a lot of joy seeing dogs running around and playing with each other. Since I moved to the UK, my boyfriend and I also have a cute small yorkiepoo that loves to play with other dogs and have our friend’s pets coming over. I’m currently at home and my boyfriend also works remotely so your pups will always have somebody to play and go to parks. I usually go with my pup and friends every two or three days to parks nearby. My apartment has rooms that in case our pups are not well together, I can keep them away. We also have a public fenced garden, that allows the dogs to run around without a leash and play around.
