Dog Walking Bournemouth

“Left my dog and a cat in Lauren's care for 2 days. Will do it again with no hesitation: 120% care for our house and both a can and a dog, they didn't even seem to miss us much. I received tons of pictures. Highly recommended!!!”

About: We are Lee and Sonya, an older couple (early 50s and mid 60s) living in the BH9 area of Winton. We are very close to lots of lovely dog walking places and are happy to drive further afield for doggy walks too. We’re used to walking dogs of all ages and most sizes (small, medium and not too large). We also have 2 quite elderly cats but they can be secluded away safely when your doggy is visiting or staying with us. We can take your dog(s) for walks locally - we usually go to Winton Rec, Redhill Park and Meyrick Park or, for longer walks, we go to Canford Sang, Wareham Forest and the New Forest. We sadly said goodbye to Buster, our lovely Belgian Malinois doggy of 13 years, in April 2025. We’re not ready to have a new doggie yet, but there is a big space in our hearts and we’d love to enjoy walking your dog so please let us know if you would like to book time with us. We love walking and especially dog walking. We’re confident and capable with all dog breeds and available for dog sitting and boarding while you’re away. We look forward to meeting you and your dog(s)! 😊 I’m retired so have lots of free time, especially now my doggy has gone so I can fit in with most times you need my support. Sonya Safety is paramount! For pet stays at our home, we have a fully fenced-in garden and we would make sure your pet is safe when anyone comes to the door. Lots of fun activities as well as walks - toys, games and cuddles to make sure they feel safe with us.

“Anna was amazing! Bella got along with her brilliantly! Couldn’t recommend her enough!”

About: i’ve had two dogs of my own in which i have trained and look after, as well as looking after several puppies when being born which my family friend let me look after, after their female dog gave birth. i have also helped my neighbours when they have needed for me to stay at their house with their cats and dogs and walk their dogs as well as my family members i am currently unemployed as i am in between college and university which allows me to have a lot of time to look after your dogs. i have a black labrador called monty of my own in which i walk two to three times a day at the moment. i am abke to take on late notice requests which can be helpful for many who have busy schedules and have changes of plans. i love all animals, especially dogs which is why i want to spend time and get to know your pets. i am more so looking to look after dogs at the owners home, as i believe it is a safe space for the dog with the familiar smells as well as it being better for my own personal self, in which i will play with your dog such as throw tennis balls or play tug of war. i will also spend quality time with them in which i can sit and build their trust which i believe is key as dogs should be treated with love and respect.

About: My love for dogs is at the heart of everything I do. I believe that pets are family, and I treat them with the same care and respect. From energetic puppies to senior dogs with special needs, I have experience handling a wide range of pet care scenarios. I offer a flexible schedule to accommodate the needs of pet owners, ensuring that your pet receives consistent and attentive care. I provide a safe, secure, and loving environment where pets can thrive and feel at home. I am very precise, so if you have specific instructions for your dog, be reassured they will be followed :) My work is pretty flexible and that allows me to take care of the dogs properly, let them walk regularly. I am available on weekends and weekdays. I have a flat that can accommodate up to two dogs (from the same family or different families) at the same time. They will have space to be comfortable.

About: We’ve grown up surrounded by pets and can’t imagine life without them. From childhood right through to adulthood, caring for animals has always been second nature to us. Over the years, friends, family, neighbours, and even people in our wider community have trusted us time and again as their first choice when it comes to looking after their precious pets. That trust means everything to us, and we treat every animal in our care with the same love, patience, and attention we give our own. Our working hours are flexible and one of us is part time. Our schedules mean that our pets and any visitors will only be left alone for work related reasons for 2-4 hours. We have a secure garden with tall fences. We live within a two minute walk of both Queen’s and King’s Park. We know how important it is to feel completely confident when leaving your pets in someone else’s care. That’s why we pride ourselves on being reliable, responsible, and respectful.

“Lisa-Ann was wonderful with our dog! She was lovely and helped us out last minute as we both weren't feeling well. We would highly recommend her. She was very communicative, asked all the right questions upfront, and sent lovely pictures during their time together. Our dog came back very happy and content after her great time with Lisa-Ann! Thank you!”

About: I’m reliable, patient, and happy to tailor walks, playtime, feeding, and care to suit each pet. Whether your pet is energetic and loves long walks or prefers a slower pace and plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive the attention they deserve. I’m also comfortable caring for puppies who are still learning routines, as well as senior pets who may need extra patience and gentle care. I have been a rescue volunteer at the Margaret Green rescue centre and currently enroled with the Cinamon Trust. I work part-time in an office, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate quality time to caring for pets throughout the week. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure every pet receives the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll always make their wellbeing my priority.

I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well looked after. I’ll take the time to get to know your fur baby’s personality and needs, whether they love long walks, playing with their favourite toys, or simply relaxing with some company. I’ll also make sure they always have fresh water, a safe and comfortable environment, and lots of care while you’re away. I’ll keep your home clean, tidy, and secure, and I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can see how your fur baby is getting on.

About: I had a dog when I was growing up in Italy during my teenage years for 13 years. After that, I had two cats (who are basically my whole world), but they are currently in Italy with my parents. So I completely understand what it means to go on vacation and not have anyone to look after your little fur babies. And that’s where I come in. I will do my absolute best to make your pets feel at home, loved, cuddled, and give them all the attention and care they need. I work full-time in healthcare, so being responsible, organised and attentive comes naturally to me. Your pet’s wellbeing and your home will always be treated with respect. I am working 42 hours weekly in a nursing home in Branksome, doing 3 long days (7-19) and one half day every week (7-13 or 13-19). I live in a flat really close to the beach. I have no garden, but I’m happy to take your dog for a walk by the beach, run together, have fun and enjoy the sun.

About: I have had a dog in my family for the last 14 years and have previously volunteered in a dog shelter for 2 years. I additionally have done pet sitting in the past for dogs, cats and rabbits. I am currently on summer break as a masters student, and working part time, so I have plenty of time available to care for and walk dogs. I have always had dogs in the family and provide frequent care and attention in a safe environment for dogs. I am able to frequently walk and play with your dog.

About: I’m an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your dog. I have been dog sitting now for over 3 years. I have grown up training and looking after my family miniature schnauzer and cared for him in his old age, administering medication and taking him to hydrotherapy and physio. There is a new pup (miniature poodle) in the family that I look after very often and regularly help with her training. I absolutely love looking after dogs, treating them as our own and making sure they’re having a fun and comfortable stay. I have regulars that come to me weekly that run into my home which is so lovely. We have experience looking after so many breeds such as cockapoos, cavapoos, schnauzers, poodles, dachshunds, schnoodles, goldendoodles, whippets, and many many more! We cannot wait to add your loved fur baby to our forever growing family of pups 🐶 I work from home each day and have the flexibility to go on walks in the mornings, at lunchtime and in the evening. I live in a ground floor flat with large private gardens so we can have run arounds in between our fun walks out! We are 5 minutes from the beach and Branksome woods. My partner is a teacher and is around during weekends, and school holidays for longer stays and day trips out with your precious pooch. At our dog friendly home, we are on the ground floor and everywhere is safe for your pooch to go. We have a large garden for toilet breaks and great sniffs! We will be with your dog at all times, would keep your dog on a lead and adhere to any of your special requirements that you have for your beloved pet. We have a medium sized crate which can be used for travelling in the car or sleeping if your dog is crate trained at night. I have given great care to my elderly family dog, which included giving him medication, supporting him during walks, doing exercises for his back legs and in general giving him love and attention. If your dog has any particular needs please let me know and I’d be happy to help anyway I can.

“Kerith has walked and sat with our mini schnauzer several times. Our ms is a rescue who reacts to other dogs, and Kerith has met the challenge of walking her very well. Her calm manner, careful following of instructions and great communication means we hope to continue to use her services regularly”

About: I’m an experienced sitter with a genuine love for all animals. I got all my pets through to the tender old ages of 16 through devotion, love and responsibility. I love giving them love and I can take care of senior dogs with all kinds of health problems. I am also DBS checked and I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, birds you name it. I even had horses. I currently work part time and my work is flexible so they will have all the attention and love from me. We’ll go on early morning walks and afternoon walks depending on the weather and between they’ll get to play and have fun! I live in a one bedroom in a long stay hotel setting right now. There’s a bit garden in the back and a big one in front with plenty of routes to the beach. I’m also more than happy to stay at your place and look after your babies in their own environment.

“Lauren took well care of my little Taco, I love that she replied to messages quickly and was very communicative. I would recommend her and i would definitely get in touch with her again for future fluff sitting.”

About: Hi, We're Matt and Laura. We're a couple of dog lovers that recently had our first baby! Matt works full time, most of the time at home, and I (Laura) am on maternity leave at the moment. We love going for walks as a family, but we also live in a ground floor flat with a nice garden where they can play around and enjoy the sun! We have a Monday-Friday job. We usually finish around 6pm so we will be able to do the evening walk. We are free all day on the weekends if we get some notice. We have a fence garden, but we also are very on top of them to make sure they are ok, soecially if it's the first time with them.

“This is the first time using Karen to walk our 2 dogs. They are not easy, as they don't really like taking walks! But Karen is very trustworthy and competent and she managed them very well. Will definitely use her again!”
