Dog Walking in Calderdale

“Elisa is amazing. Flexible, patient and understanding. My puppy can still get up to mischief which she takes in her stride. Some weeks I need extra days and she does that with no problems. She even helps me navigate the app. I think we'd be very lost without Elisa helping with our puppy.”

“Having met with Daniel on a meet and greet locally, it was clear he was the best match for Gin. He is professional, knowledgable and exactly what I am looking for. Today he walked Gin while I was working, Gin is happy, chilled and calm on my return and really pleased to see me! Thank you Daniel. Will be booking again soon”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Over the years I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats to rabbits, rats, hamsters, and gerbils. These days, I’m a proud dog mum to a Romanian rescue and two wonderfully bonkers spaniels – so I know all about zoomies, cuddles, and muddy pawprints! I’ve worked as a professional dog groomer, giving me hands-on experience with breeds of all shapes and sizes – from tiny Yorkshire terriers to gentle giants like a St Bernard–Newfoundland cross. I also have experience with rescue dogs and pups with behaviour challenges, and I’ve trained my mum’s service dogs, which has taught me patience, consistency, and how to help nervous dogs feel safe and happy. Services I offer: Looking after pets in your home 🏡 Dog walks, playtime & cuddles 🐕 Feeding & routine care 🐾 Safe transport in a fully insured car 🚗 I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they’re loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Having spent years in a different industry, I'm now embracing a long-held dream: working with dogs full time. Dog care has always been close to my heart and I'm excited to build a career which reflects what I love the most! When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritise maintaining their usual routines and environment to help them feel safe and relaxed. I begin by understanding the owner's instructions in detail—feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication, and any behavioural quirks or preferences. I always approach animals calmly and respectfully, allowing them to come to me in their own time, especially if they’re nervous or reactive. I ensure the home stays clean and secure, and I keep a close eye on the pet’s wellbeing—monitoring for any signs of stress, discomfort, or illness. I also provide regular updates to the owner, including photos and notes, so they feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is to offer the same level of care and attention the pet receives from their family, with plenty of affection, patience, and positive reinforcement.

“Florence was awesome and Tilly enjoyed a lovely walk with her! She made sure to understand Tilly's needs and kept me updated with photos and videos. Will definitely be calling on Florence when we need her again in the future!”

About: I’ve been looking after my family’s, friend’s and own dogs for over five years now. I have a beautiful 4 year old black Labrador called Harry who I have had since he was a puppy and trained him well. He is a very spoiled pampered pooch and I treat all dogs in my care the same. I have experience looking after dogs of all shapes and sizes from Frenchies and Beagles to German Pointers and young puppies. We walk for miles each day and there are some beautiful walks on my door step. But Harry also very much enjoys sleeping and lazy days so we can cater to your dog’s needs. I work from home most days. I have to go into the office once or twice a week but I could not go in if your dog isn’t happy being left alone (with Harry) for a few hours. Harry isn’t neutered - he is very soft and friendly and gets on with all dogs but I would do a meet and greet before agreeing to any boarding or walking as his safety and wellbeing is my priority. Dogs are welcome on the furniture but I am also happy to keep them off if that’s what you would prefer. I have an enclosed front garden but only let the dogs out with my supervision. I have experience giving medication to my own dog and am happy to do whatever is best for your dog. I love taking pictures of my dog and his doggo friends so you can get all the pupdates you would like 🤳🐾💜 Any questions don’t hesitate to get in touch :) I work from home most days and am happy to provide as much or little exercise for your dog as needed - Harry loves long walks but also loves lazy days I have my Labrador Harry to keep your dog company, we have a fenced garden out front but the back garden is currently going through a revamp.

“I came home to a very happy dog! Would recommend Ellie, she was so accommodating and friendly and Gus clearly loved her.”

About: From a young age I have always been fond of all animals and as a family we took on the role of being puppy walkers for Guide dogs. One puppy we took on developed arthritis so could no longer carry on in training but this meant we got to keep him and have a fantastic 13 years together. He made my childhood and although in adulthood I haven't taken a dog on myself, I am a serial dog auntie to many and offer dog walks and pet sitting to friends/family/colleagues/neighbours etc. I am a really keen walker and know some great dog friendly routes but also always keen for the excuse to find new ones. I work full time but have flexibility in my schedule as work locally and often come and go from home throughout the day. I do not have the commitments of kids or other pets myself so again can offer that flexible care in the week to meet the needs of different people and their pets. I offer hands on care to ensure the safety and comfort and any pet I am responsible for. I want owners to feel assured their beloved animals are in safe hands. I am flexible to follow the wishes of owners to meet the individual needs of their pets, (however quirky they may be).

“Lilly has find a fabulous job walking Albert and Charlie. They have loved their walks and Lilly has sent me pictures and walking route daily whilst I have been on holiday. They have had a fab time and I know they have been looked after very well. I would not hesitate to use Lilly again .”

About: I have had both cats and dogs since I was born. I have had a range of different breed dogs including Labradors as well as an English Bull Terrier. I know how to train dogs and care for dogs as I have 20 years of 'unprofessional' experience, you could say. I also have walked dogs through apps such as Borrow My Doggy and have had a successful experience there. I have previously dog sited friends dogs as well as other family member dogs. I have also cared for others cats. I also am currently trying to improve my photography skills and have taken some lovely photos of my pets as well as my friends and families, so can snap some lovely shots of your animals, can't promise top quality :) I'm currently on my masters placement year. I am in work 3 days a work but work from home most days. I am looking to earn some money while also spending time with animals, which I love! I will look to follow your helpful tips on what’s best for your pets. This will include best toys, food spots and best cuddle spots!

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my whole life, from playful pups to gentle seniors. I’m reliable, flexible, and treat every pet like my own - making sure they feel safe, loved, and never lonely. ------ I've been caring for pets professionally for the past couple of years often in tandem with my girlfriend, Florence (who is also on Rover). Whether old or young, timid or bold, I focus on making every animal feel safe and comfortable. I treat every pet as if they were my own: giving them the right balance of playtime, walks, rest, and attention. I’m reliable, punctual, and flexible, happy to work around your pet’s routine and your schedule. From energetic park walks to quiet companionship at home, I adapt to each animal’s needs. I’m also experienced with feeding, administering basic medication, and caring for pets that need a little extra support, including those who can’t manage stairs. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels happy, cared for, and never lonely while you’re away. Right now I have plenty of time in my schedule, so I’m available for pet care most days and times. I usually do sittings and walks with my girlfriend, Florence (who also has a Rover profile), so your pet often gets the benefit of two friendly faces instead of one. We’re flexible, reliable, and happy to work around your pet’s usual routine. In my home, pets are welcome to make themselves completely comfortable: sofas, beds, and cosy corners included. We have plenty of space, with parks and countryside just outside for energetic dogs who love long walks, and a peaceful, comfy environment for pets who prefer to relax. Cats are kept safe indoors with plenty of spots to explore or curl up in. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I’m respectful of your space and your rules. I follow your pet’s routine closely, keep their environment safe, and make sure they always feel secure and cared for. Whether it’s a big adventure outside or a quiet day at home, I adapt to each pet’s needs.

About: I have owned dogs for most of my life, very recently getting my own puppy who is now 4 months old. I understand the importance of providing not only exercise but also companionship and care. Doing lots of my own research and my experience as a dog owner has taught me how to read canine behavior, basic training, manage different temperaments, and ensure a safe and enjoyable outing/space. I’m quite flexible with plenty of time to look after your pups! With availability for boarding, walks, drop ins and any other pet services you need. I also have my own vehicle. I have a good sized fenced off back garden with a friendly fur baby of my own to keep your fur baby company, with lots of doggy toys to keep entertained. I also have a crate can easily crate your dog if needed.

About: Caring for my cats has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life, and it has deepened my love and understanding of animals. I have learned to anticipate their needs, provide comfort, and create a safe and happy environment for them. 
This has inspired me to become a pet sitter, where I can extend the same level of care and attention to other pets. I understand that pets are more than just animals—they are family members who deserve to be treated with respect and love. 
As a pet sitter, my goal is to provide a reliable, compassionate service that ensures pets feel secure and happy while their owners are away. I am motivated by the joy of connecting with animals and helping them feel at ease, knowing that they are in good hands.
My own experience with animals can helps me to understand how our pets need and take care them with love and passion.
DBS certificate can be provided if required. As a mom of a kids and 2 cats, my duty is taking care of them and also your pets , I will be staying with them and make them feel safe and happy. I will visit you place to make sure your furry friend are feeded , spend time to stay and play with them make them feel loved.

About: As well as our own 20 month old dog, Poppy, we care for our parents’ 14 year old dog on a regular basis as well as friends & families dogs. We have over a years experience using Rover and caring for dogs privately too. We have cared for dogs for up to 3 weeks at a time, and very comfortable adjusting our lifestyle to suit the needs of dogs in our care. We have even taken dogs on holiday with us! Our lovely dog Poppy (a cross Spaniel/Beagle/Terrier) loves the company of other dogs, which is part of the reason we have signed up to care for other dogs. We are really comfortable with other pets, have a very dog friendly home, where they will be treat like our own and kept safe, warm and loved for as long as they are here. We recently welcomed a lovely baby boy into the world, so please note that any dogs we care for MUST be happy and comfortable around children and babies. I (Emily) work from home flexibly, and currently walk our own dog 3 times a day between us. We have an active lifestyle and love being at home. With us already having a dog of our own, we spend most weekends walking and taking her to the pub! We have a fenced, sizeable back garden which is perfect for your dog. We also have room for your dog to be kept separately from our own at night, whether that be on our sofa or in his/her own crate. We are really flexible and happy to accommodate your pets needs whilst staying with us. We live across the road from a big playing area where there are plenty of dog walkers, and have a park and woods on our doorstep too. Our dog walks off the lead, but we’re happy to keep yours on a lead, or off - whatever you are comfortable with.

“I recently had Emma walk my furbabies while I was away on holiday, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service she provided. Not only did she ensure that my pets were well taken care of, but she also went above and beyond by sending me regular updates and adorable photos of them during her visits. It was such a relief to know that my pets were in good hands and receiving the love and attention they needed while I was away. Emma's professionalism, reliability, and genuine care for animals truly shine through in her work. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate pet caregiver. Thank you, Emma, for giving me peace of mind and for taking such great care of my furbabies!”
