Dog Walking Chorley

About: A lot of my background is in health care, from the elderly, to young children. But helping people feel relaxed when leaving there pets makes me happy 😃 to make new furry friends and to help paw-rents feel comfortable when leaving family, as we know it can be a very stressful time. I have a clear DBS and worked in healthcare for many years. My family has mix of dogs and cats, there all family. Furry friends

About: I’m a 23 year old Veterinary Medicine student in her 4th year of Vet school. I take pride in making sure animals are healthy and happy whilst in my care. Alongside this I’ve studied an animal management BTEC course and got a grade of D*D*D*. I have a wide range of work experience alongside animals including doggy day cares, catteries, farm settings and pet shops and I’ve worked with a wide variety of animals. :) My weekly routine usually consists of having to go to university, hence why my availability is a bit staggered. Weekends are fully free for me usually (other than pet sitting!). But when I’m on university holiday or study break I’m available to fit within your schedule! I build towards your schedule where I’ll try and mimic your usual routine to ensure your pets feel as comfortable as possible in their own home. Bear in mind I do have a part time job 5-7pm Monday to Friday but will fit to your schedule as best as I can

“Buddy was very excited to see Georgia again this week. He had a very waggy tail when he got home after his walk also. He’s having a nice sleep now.”

About: Hello! Unlike some other sitters on Rover, i have a year of dog sitting experience and work experience in a kennels, cattery, riding school and small animal vet clinic. I have been caring for dogs ever since 2012 when i was around seven years old and have also had some experience with rabbits and birds around the age of 4 years old. During my work experience, i have learnt how to analyse basic animal behaviour well and have learnt how to follow a schedule of feeding times, medicine that need to be administered and how to meet the needs of both dogs and cats. I’ve helped with grooming and bathing at the kennels and i am patient at all times, giving space to animals when they need it. I am the type of pet sitter to give some advice to owners if i feel it may benefit the owners and the pet. For example, if i see your dog eats too quickly, i might recommend a slow feeding bowl to reduce chances of things such as GDV happening to your dog. I have helped two owners during my time as a pet sitter as i have noticed medical issues in their dogs such as signs of a urinary infection or epulis. If you do not want advice, please let me know beforehand as i do not tolerate rude behaviour. Im currently available at all times so whatever type of schedule you would like for your pet, i can work around. When a dog is in my own home and is sleeping over, i sleep nearby to make sure that they are comfortable and safe as that is my first priority. I give every dog at least one walk a day (or more if you would like) In my own home, i have an attached house which is kept clean at all times and it has a back garden with tall fences and no grass. Its a relatively big garden with lots of plants and vegetables around. I do have a dog of my own in the house who’s an eight year old Sproodle who is playful but is no threat to other dogs as she loves to greet them no matter the age. She is gentle with puppies and sleeps in her own bed in the kitchen. In my house, i live with two sisters and my mother. No matter the house im caring for your pet in, i will stick to a schedule and your rules however you prefer. I will make sure your pet is entertained and cared for well and will return home happy!

About: Hi, I’m Gemma, I really love spending time with dogs and cats and have experience in both owning one and taking care of them for others. I don’t currently own a dog or a cat. I'm friendly, caring and reliable. I am happy to take your pets for walks on all weather. I’m currently working from home freelance so I'm flexible on availability for drop ins and walks. I am currently working freelance from home so will have plenty of flexible time and availability to play with and care for your pets. I’m always flexible in the mornings and afternoons . Availability in the evenings and on weekends may vary but if a regular time slot is needed so am more than happy to work around and commit to that I have a fenced garden and plant of space for crates or large toys or anything you may need to help me take excellent care of your beloved pets and ensure they can settle in quickly. The outside space is suitable for cats and dogs and equally if they need to be kept indoors that is more than easy to accommodate. I’ll take your lead and advice on what works best for them. I live in a semi rural area with gorgeous surroundings along the canal so plenty of opportunities for lovely walks,in a very dog friendly area. Equally there are plenty of areas to walk if being near water doesn’t work for them.

About: I have had cats since I was little, adopting them from friends, the RSPCA or relatives. I have also owned rabbits, and dogs, in the past as an adult. My dog experience includes an excitable Border Collie, a happy-go-lucky mixed breed and a fun-loving German Shepherd. I do miss dog walks and dog cuddles, but currently one of my adopted senior cats isn't keen on dogs so I am currently a dog free house! I have looked after pets since I was about 5 or 6 so have nearly 50 years experience with animals.I work from home so if you have wifi and need a sitter in your home, I can be in most of the day with your pet. I love walking dogs on or off lead and I am happy to go with the personality of your pet, whether that's a cat that likes their own space, or a dog who wants cuddles and long outdoor walks. As for my cats, they have my Mum to look after them when I am away, so I can do overnight or longer stays. I work in education, have a car, flexibility on dates/times and I will look after your pet as if they are my own, sending lots of photos and updates. I work Monday-Friday in term-time, and work from home, with occasional meetings outside my home, depending on schedule. I usually get up, feed my cats, have breakfast, start work at 8 and if I'm in a Teams meeting online, try to keep my cats from coming into shot or stepping all over my keyboard! Sometimes I might need to do an external visit or meeting, but if so then I am back home within 1-2hrs. At tea time the cats get fed again. At the weekends my cats have to wait a little longer for breakfast if I have a lie-in. At home I have a fenced-in garden, a cat flap and litter trays. I also have a small park 5 mins walk away where I used to walk my dogs, and a larger one 10 mins drive away. I live in a very quiet cul de sac.

About: Hi, I’m Sophie, I have 2 dogs of my own, one’s a Labrador and the other is a Labrador mix. I have always had a love for animals and would be excited to have the opportunity to provide your animals with the care they deserve. I am a reliable and kind person. I understand the importance of treating every animals with kindness. At the moment I am available full time, so am available at any time to check in and play with your pets. I am available for boarding on weekends and weekdays from 3pm. I am unable to house sit at my own home. But I am happy and more than willing to look after your pets at your own home

About: I have had my own dog for over 17 years so i understand what it’s like to take care of a dog. I am such a caring person, who loves walking and miss walking a dog. It would bring me so much joy again. I currently work a full time job, Monday-Thursday, when I finish work of an everning. I love to be able to walk dogs and on my days off also as this. I will always make sure that I am consistent when being around the dogs. At the moment I will not be offering over night stays at my home due to having no garden which is not ideal for a dog to be staying.

About: I have owned animals since I was a child from guinea pigs to cats to dogs. I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat and a rabbit. My dog is a husky so I am used to getting out walking daily. I am available all day for drop ins and walks. I own a husky who is very kind and gentle, she gets along with other dogs but can be left at home if it is an issue. I love long walks as well as short ones and plenty of play time. I have a very big secure back garden which is great for the dogs running around or relaxing in. I have a very small for her age husky who gets along with other dogs with no issues.

About: I don’t charge for puppies!! Message me for specific rates but please ignore the Rover value for puppy care. I’ve always loved animals and grown up surrounded by them, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I have experience walking and caring for dogs of different sizes and temperaments, including terriers, miniature poodles, and German Shepherds, as well as looking after pets for other owners while they’ve been away. I’m confident with both small and large dogs, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I love spending time with dogs and making sure they have all the attention they need. I currently work part time, so I have plenty of flexibility and time to spend with your dogs. Most of the time I’m able to work around your schedule and offer reliable, consistent care, whether that’s walks, check-ins, or overnight stays in your home. I always look after dogs in their own home, so they can stay in a place they know and feel comfortable in. I’m calm and confident with all kinds of dogs, including those who are a bit nervous, excitable, or need a bit more patience and understanding. I’m also happy following any routines you already have in place, whether that’s feeding, walking, grooming, or just keeping things consistent for them. After visits or walks, I like to send a quick update with a photo so you can see how your dog is doing and what they’ve been up to. If something ever seems a bit off, I’ll always let you know. For overnight stays, I’m happy to adjust how often I update you - some people like lots of updates, others prefer to relax knowing everything is taken care of, and I’m happy either way.

About: I have owned dogs for over 10 years and have experience with most sizes! My family at home have a Beauceron x Rottweiler so I am used to large, strong dogs. We also used to have a whippet, and both dogs were rescues so I also have experience with dogs with little to no recall and who love to try and slip their lead LOL! Our beauceron x is now over 15 so I have experience with older dogs and I understand their needs. I currently have a little Peke who lives with me. She is spayed and very unbothered by other dogs as she comes from a farm so hopefully our pets will make great friends! I am a laidback but firm pet owner. I have a little experience training my dogs so if you need any training worked on/ reinforced during your pets stay with me please let me know and I can work with you! I currently work Mon-Friday 9-5, so I am mostly available on weekends. When looking after your pet I will not have any plans so I can ensure their happiness and safety. I live in a top floor flat so if your pet is staying with me they must be happy with stairs or being carried. I live next to a large green space so they can have a nice walk. I will aim to bring your pet out every 2-4 hours depending on their energy levels/ toilet needs. Overnight the last toilet break will be around 9pm and the first morning walk is at 7.30am. This is flexible so just let me know of any specific requirements!

About: I had to put my rottweiler, Zeus, to sleep recently due to a kidney condition (he was <3) so I'm looking to put all everything i know and my appreciation for dogs to good use! Ive owned shelties, labs and him most recently. Whether your dog is a big softie, an absolute menace or somewhere in the middle (ive had them all) drop me a message. If its a one-off walk, a drop in overnight or something more regular, if im free, I'm more than happy to help! I work full time currently (mon-fri) with hybrid/flex so i can do a lunchtime walk if im home or an evening walk any day of the week. Ive much more flexibility at the weekend I live in a house with a fenced garden. There's currently no pets/ dogs in my house and I have 2 kids (9&7) who are both great with dogs.

“Jade was amazing with Caesar, she came to meet him in the week before taking him out so he was familiar with her, and we knew he would be in safe hands with Jade! She took him on a few walks and sent lots of pictures of him having the best time and hope he can play out with her again soon!”
