About: I have been caring for dogs of my own for a number of years as well as having 6 years experience in caring for other people's dogs. I have experience in walking, sitting, boarding, daycare services and drop-ins. I also have past voluntary experience at a dog kennel. I have provided dog walking services for external clients in the past whilst studying at college. I have specific experience in working with senior dogs and dogs with anxiety. I have a Level 2 Canine Health and Welfare qualification as well as a plethora of other animal-related qualifications including dog walking, canine nutrition and canine first aid. I also completed a certified Level 3 Canine Behaviour qualification in July 2023. Please message me if you have any questions and I'll be more than happy to answer. Please note I am currently only available to do house sitting from Friday evenings until Monday mornings due to work commitments on weekdays. I can provide care during the week also but only for dogs who are fine to be left for around 8 hours during the day. I always come to meet the dog(s) beforehand to get a feel for their personality and behaviour and to answer any questions you may have about the service I can provide.

“I have a Hungarian Vizla called Mike who can be quiet the challenge, especially when it comes to walking. He doesn’t always listen and can often run off when he sees other dogs. Finding a dog walker who can manage him has proven difficult in the past, until I used lauryn ! Lauryn reassured me prior to taking him and made me feel confident that he was in safe hands. Mike took an instant liking to lauryn and after several weeks of lauryn walking Mike, I began to notice an improvement in how Mike walked and listened to me. For that reason alone I would highly recommend lauryn as your dog walker ! She’s a lovely girl, who is very knowledgeable and confident with dogs.”

“I wanted to share my wonderful experience with Holly, an amazing boarder who took care of my dog, Scooter. From our meet and greet, I felt confident that Scooter would be well looked after. Her place was clean, and cosy, and felt like a second home for him. Holly provided regular updates and photos, which made me feel connected and assured that Scooter was having a ball. What impressed me the most was Holly's attentiveness to Scooter's needs, including his medication which she gave with no fuss as he has seizures and is on medication to prevent them. She treated him with care and made sure he was safe and happy throughout his stay. If you're looking for a reliable and caring dog boarder, I highly recommend Holly xx”

“George is a reliable and responsible person, he is extremely kind hearted and is always aware of the needs and the animals in his life. He has lots of experience caring for animals and has frequently looked after my pets when I’ve been on holiday. George has taken time to get to the pets he has cared for and has shown great empathy for them. I would highly recommend him for this role.”

About: I’ve always had a love for dogs& animals and have recently been dog sitting either in my home or in the pet owners home. I take them on daily walks tailored to their needs. I make sure to follow instructions from owners on feeding times, medications (if necessary) and when they have been in my care to take them to any necessary vet appointments. I have a family pet cat who lives at my house. I’m also going to dog training classes to get a better understanding on dog behaviour I can do overnight stays I’m at home full time, I have a borderpoo ( border collie crossed with a poodle) called Beau that I dog sit 4x who is very friendly and playful towards other dogs. I also loan a horse so whenever I go up there I take the dogs with my partner making sure they are safe at all times and always with someone. I have a fenced back garden that is spacious for your fur baby to run around and have some fun. If I’m at the pet owners house I make sure to be respectful and clean up any mess made by the doggy or myself. I ask a lot of questions regarding how you would like me to look after your pet so they are as comfortable as they can be around myself. I make sure to let them outside regularly and pick up any poo from the garden.

“I would thoroughly recommend Julia. She was reliable and efficient, and kept me posted about the walks with my dog Bella. I’d definitely use her again.”

“Lauren has been brought up around all types of animals and has unconditional love for all of gods creations. Over the years Lauren has had experiences with many dogs and showed care, love and commitment. Lauren is also training to become a veterinarian to continue her love for animals. Lauren is very responsible and trustworthy and I can honestly say that she has a gift when caring for animals. Also known as the dog whisperer. :)”

“I have known Charlotte for a very long time. Over the years, she has looked after our family dog on numerous occasions. Charlotte works for the Dog’s Trust so naturally, she is excellent with all animals. Dogs love her immediately as she has an amazingly friendly and kind nature. Your dog would be very safe and have a great time boarding with her. I guarantee that they would be very well cared for.”

About: I have grown up and been surrounded by pets all life, goldfish, hamsters, dogs, cats, parrots… the list goes on. I have my own Staffie, he’s dog reactive so understand the challenges and practices needed with a reactive dog. I have walked a number of breeds. I am self employed so am flexible with timings etc. Advanced bookings are preferable for availability and appreciate other people’s work schedules need to be considered. I have everything needed for dog or cat care, including, harnesses, leads, brushes, shampoo, towels, a caged car boot, toys, food etc. I can accommodate what’s needed.

About: I always was passionate and loving about dogs ever since I was little. Dogs has always been a part of my life and I cannot imagine life with out them. I have adopted a cocker spaniel about 2 years ago and found my best friend. All dogs have a place in my heart and I’ll always treat them like my own. I work in care homes. Which allows me to be flexible and spend more time at home during the day. I also have many days off so I can completely focus on fluffy friends. I drive a lot and I’m able to visit many places with the dogs to have some fun. I have a fenced garden for dogs to do whatever they need and wish. Also I have a nice field across the street where I could take them and have some fun. My cocker spaniel is very understanding dog and is friendly although he understands boundaries and personal space (just not mine :D) I don’t have a crate but if the owner does and wished for me to put in my house I do not mind at all. I will always stick to the owners wishes.

“We have booked Sam to walk our dog a few times recently and have been so pleased with the whole process. Sam always responds so quickly, she’s always really polite and extremely helpful, but most importantly she clearly has a great rapport with our dog (and stays to give our cat Bez a love too!). Minky now knows who Sam is and is always excited when we tell her she’s coming to see her. We have booked her for various other upcoming occasions. She always follows any special instructions so carefully and even helped us by giving some workmen access when they needed to attend at short notice. She made sure they had everything they needed then left our house safe and secure. We cannot recommend Sam enough!”

About: Animals have my whole heart. I am a very loving and caring person, i love dogs 🐕 and would love to be able to spend every minute of every day with them. I would love to take your pups out for walks 🐾 or look after them while you're on your holidays. I work full time however i have plenty of breaks throughout the day where i can walk or spend time with your pets and provide the best care i can give. Im not open to having any pets in my home as i have a toy poodle and i live in a flat. The problem is that i have neighbours that complain about barking so at this moment in time unfortunately i wont be able to take your pets in but i can travel to you for sure☺️

About: I’ve been super passionate about animals since a really young age and have lots of experience handling animals. I currently own a Leonberger, so have vast amounts of experience with extra larges dogs. I've also cared for numerous dogs, of all different sizes from Cocker Spaniels to Huskies so I am confident in my dog handling abilities. I have an Extended Diploma in Animal Management, and am currently studying for my degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy so dog walking & sitting is a pleasant break from this. I am more than happy to accommodate to each individual dog's requirements, whether that be extensive walks or small walks and more play! I love working with all animals and would love to surround myself with more animals. I am currently a full-time student (2 days a week) so have lots of spare time in my day, and would love to fill this by being surrounded by the love and care of animals! I have recently started up my dog walking business and would love to make a group of dogs so I can offer several group walks a day and your dog can get the most out of the walks! This is not applicable as your dog will not be coming home with me due to having cats. However, I will ensure safety whilst walking and dog/cat sitting and will follow any rules you make me aware of to ensure every pet is looked after with the upmost care.
