“She did a great job, she has really good communication and my dog really liked her. She followed instructions to a T. Would recommend and will be using again”
“The dogs had a great walk!”
About: I have cared for animals from the age of 11, when my parents set up boarding kennels, I lived and breathed the company of the dogs we cared for. As well as many years experience working at the kennels, I am always first choice for friends and family who need pet care or walks whether they are at work, going on holiday or just too busy that particular day. They all know I prefer animals over humans and don’t take it personally! I’m currently taking a break from work and can look after your fur babies every day and overnight if required, either at my home or theirs. I am available for walks every day or even just company and belly rubs if that’s all your baby needs. I have a private fenced garden and your pets will be in the safest hands. I have a 3 year old Labrador who could be great company for your fur baby, Willow loves to swim at any opportunity and run in the fields, rain or shine, day or night and sometimes all day!
“Eleanor is an amazing dog walker - Fig has loved going out for his walks, and has been thoroughly exhausted each evening!”
About: I have had a rescue dog for 13 years and another dog from a puppy for 2 years. They are both loved and cherished, and your pet would be treated exactly the same. I also have experience working with animals at animal charities for the last 11 years and looking after friends' dogs frequently too. I work part time 3 days a week so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am happy to have them in my home as long as they fit in with my pets and kids, or I can come to your home if preferred. I have a fully fenced back garden and a very easygoing labradoodle who would like to play if your dog wants to, but is happy to give space if your dog prefers. The other dog and cat are very old and sleep a lot! I am fit and active so happy to give long walks if wanted.
“Mark has done an absolutely amazing job looking after our dogs on our wedding day! Nothing was too much trouble. He hung around during the ceremony and while we were taking photos then took the two dogs away on the most amazing walkies ever! They climbed a mountain, ran around with sheep and came back the happiest tired pooches. We couldn’t be more grateful for the perfect dog date on our special day!”

“Nicky has looked after my little terrier, Shirley, since she was a puppy. Shirley loves going as it’s like home from home for her. I always know she is safe and well cared for. She gets lots of exercise and lots of fun. As a very tiny puppy and not much bigger now, she was too small to go in kennels, staying with Nicky was the only place I would want her to go to. EVER!”
