Dog Walking in Cornwall

“Tracy is just a delight. I felt immediately at ease when we first met and just knew she would take great care of our dog which she did. She was also brilliant with my parents who were looking after our dog while we were away, turning up on time and being really friendly. I would highly recommend!”

“I have known Emma since she was 8 years old and she loves animals and has been fortunate enough to look after many pets including rabbits, chickens, ducks, quails, tortoises, a cat and two dogs. Emma spends a huge amount of time with her dogs and has achieved many impressive successes in dog agility. Emma has always been keen to learn about animals and their behaviour and this has significantly influenced her choice of studies at College and then University. I would have no hesitation it recommending Emma as a responsible and caring pet caregiver.”

“Richard came across as kind and patient, which is just what Luna needs (being a rescue). Luna gets a walkies visit from Rich twice a week. Updates of Luna during the walk are frequent, where she's looking happy exploring the neighbourhood and catching up on dog gossip. Thanks Rich for the prompt and reliable service!”

“Flynn has been great with our rather troublesome Patterdale Terrier, they can be quite headstrong! He has always been reliable and treated our home with care and respect. The dog adores him! I would have no hesitation in recommending him or using him again”

“Kyal walked our (occasionally nervous) rescue dog, she was happy to go with him and came back tired and relaxed. Loved the video update of the walk.”

“Kristina is a really nice person and hazel seemed to have a good time with her little dog Riley. I was very happy and will use her again Thanks Harry.”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life, growing up with many dogs within the family to play and look after! I love spending time out in nature walking and even more so with a furry companion! I am currently searching for work, and in the meantime have a completely full schedule and availability. I am considering making this into a full time profession and if so would be able to schedule more long term plans and regular weekly work. I am very respectful of the needs of animals. Wherever there needs may be I am flexible and accommodating and sensitive to every ones unique circumstances

“Rosie has looked after our little Norris since we got him over a year ago. She is incredibly reliable and there’s no-one I’d rather looked after him. Norris adores Rosie- we can tell from the purring and demand for belly rubs when he sees her! Leaving a loved one when going on holiday is always a worry but Rosie puts us at ease and I 100% trust that our precious boy will be very well looked after. Thanks for everything Rosie!!”

“Tonia is such a lovely lady and trustworthy who looked after our 5 Bengal cats, 11 chickens and 2 pigmy goats while we had to go away for a family emergency at the last minute, tonia kept my mind at ease with updates and pictures of the animals who all looked very happy just as I had left them, the cats gave lots of cuddles which was lovely to see that they were well looked after. thank you so much Tonia for looking after our bunch of fury and feather friends for the week x”

“Liv is a very caring person who loves looking after pets more than anyone else I’ve ever met. She is polite, trustworthy, and reliable. She regularly looked after my rabbit and my cat while I was away — and Liv was the only sitter they had for their entire lives (nobody else could have done as good a job!). I think it would be hard to find somebody more devoted to making sure that your animals are safe and happy.”

“Alice is great with animals in general but loves dogs the most I think. She is sensible, energetic, caring and will look after your pooch like if it was her own ☺️.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, we had three dogs for many years so I’m more than experienced looking after and walking a small crowd! We also fostered a Jack Russel, Woody, who used to be a stunt dog for films and had a couple of anger management problems which I worked on and he became the sweetest dog. Comfortable with all ages, I helped train two of our dogs from puppies, and looked after our beautiful oldest dog until she went to the farm in the sky. I love all dogs quirky personalities and I am friendly and patient. Working as a freelance art graduate, and part time hospitality jobs, I have a flexible timetable which I can fit around walking or caring for your pets. I will take seriously any requests or rules you have to keep your pet completely comfortable and safe within your home or on a walk.

About: I'm a freelance animator currently working from home with my mum Karen who is a ceramicist. Having grown up with dogs in our home I know how important a part of the family they are! Our beautiful springer spaniel passed away days away from her 15th birthday in 2019, instead of getting another companion straight away we wanted to enjoy a little more freedom but decided to use Rover as a way of not completely having a dog-free house. We are very experienced, having looked after dogs of all shapes and sizes, as they help me get up off my computers and out in the sunshine (and rain,)! We treat all dogs staying with us like they are part of our family. Our house is in a great central location and has a medium-sized front and back garden with grass which is completely enclosed with a fence and tall hedge so dogs can come and go as they please when they are relaxing during the day. Working from home means we are really flexible with pick-up and drop-off times and can keep dogs with their regular walking and feeding times. I will always send regular daily updates so you can rest easy that your dog is having a great time! Living a short distance from Pentire, the Gannel and many beaches, all my guests are treated to one or two 45-minute, off-the-lead walks throughout the day (if they are good at responding to their name!) and lots of opportunities for good sniffs. During a home visit or house sitting I will try and keep to your dog's routine as closely as I can with walks and feeding. Individual visits can be from 1 - 8 hours at a time depending on the needs of the animals, as I can bring my laptop and work from your home so I can spend quality time with all your pets. I can also be in to collect deliveries and water any plants while you're away. If this is your dog's first time boarding with me I will always make sure that it's my only booking so we can get to know each other properly and I can learn how they are with other dogs and their routine, only if you and another owner are happy will I board dogs together. We understand some dogs do need extra care or a calmer environment in older age whereas some dogs will love making new friends. I ask you to provide any food, treats, bedding and toys that will make your dog feel really at home, it's also good for us to know if there are any training points you want me to work on during our stay e.g. toilet training, not letting them on the sofa or upstairs, lead walking and recall. I work all day from home so am available 24/7 to look after your pets, this ensures that they can keep to their regular routine easily. Our house is in a great central location and has a medium sized front and back garden with grass which is completely enclosed with a fence and tall hedge so dogs can come and go as they please when they are relaxing during the day.

“Phoebe is an amazing dog sitter, my dog adores her and we completely trust that she’s in the best hands possible when Phoebe is looking after her. We always know Phoebe will plan lovely walks and runs with our dog and also give her all the love and attention! Phoebe is also very reliable and a lovely person - I couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: Since moving down to Cornwall 4 years ago, I have cared for relatives and friends dogs when needed, and have been relied upon fully. I now have my own dog, who is my absolute world. He is a happy chappy, a completely sociable, playful, friendly character and is as obsessed with dogs as I am! We make a fine pair🍐 I am currently a University student, but the course I am studying is fully flexible and online therefore the commitments of dog sitting, walking, drop ins etc fit very easily into my schedule. My Cockapoo has an idyllic life of walkies, play time, cuddles and more walkies! And your dog can experience the same! I have a car so I am able to travel to do drop ins, pick up dogs for walks and get to properties for dog sits. I will often bring my own dog if walking, and walk for at least 1 hour but most of the time, longer than that but of course can do shorter walks if this is something that is needed.

“Charlotte was fantastic. Thank you so much.”

About: I’ve always had pets growing up as a child, I have taken care of 4 dogs since I was 8. My love for them keeps growing with the years. My grandma has a cat that I have rescued years ago and I love her so dearly, I am always very happy to look after her. I have taken care of any animal found abandoned on the street or badly treated, for me they all deserve care and love. I have volunteered at animal sanctuaries so I feel confident to take care of any sort of dog or cat. Friends and neighbours have left me their dogs for the weekend. I am used to having lots of pets around, I love to walk them, cuddle, feed and bathe if needed. I am used to all sort of ages and breeds. I’m a second year student at Falmouth University. I have plenty of flexibility and free time during the week and I live just 5 minutes from campus so I can be home straight after class. I share my house with 4 lovely girls who all adore animals and would give them much love. I miss my dogs very much and taking care of your pet would make me so happy. I am always looking forward on spending some time with a four legged friend! I have a backyard with a garden, it has a lovely shade and it’s very quiet, so it is perfect for a day sitting. For the night I am happy to have your pet over unless it’s a big dog then I would prefer staying over at the owner’s home. I am very tidy and respectful, I will leave your house just as I have found it and I do believe the animal will feel safer being at their own home.

“Lucie is the proud and doting owner of a beautiful Boxer (Tess) and a gorgeous Cat (Remus). Her levels of affection, playfulness, and love for her pets know no bounds. Lucie is also very outdoorsy and takes Tess into woodland, onto the beach in Cornwall, and across sand dunes (Tess’s favourite). I couldn’t recommend Lucie highly enough to Rover.com.”

“Karleigh has been brought up in a dog loving home. The love and care she gives any dog she meets is second to none. We have had a boxer and two pugs in our family who karleigh worships. Their needs are always her top priority. There is no one I would trust more to leave our furbabies with as I know they would be safe and well cared for in karleighs hands.”

“Lucy is responsible and an amazing pet care giver. She loves to go for walks and loves to play with any pet and give them her love.”
