Dog Walking Falmouth

About: Having grown up with pets I have had experience with all sorts - from pups to seniors, gentle souls to fuzzballs that crave chaos. I’ve helped my friend raise a staffie puppy when they had to work, and house sat for a family’s golden retriever. I have loved every minute and would be delighted to do the same for more wonderful families. I’m currently undergoing a masters degree at the Penryn campus so can be quite flexible with times during the week, and I’m happy to spend my weekends with pets that need some enrichment! I’m available to look after pets in their homes, or take them out for walks throughout the day, whatever is required for each individual.

“Another great few walks with Kyal - thanks so much for taking such great care of Albie (and sharing such fab pics)! I’ll definitely book again.”

About: Having had a number of pets my entire life, (hamsters, fish, dogs!), my love for animals has been such a huge part of my existence. This has continued into adulthood, with my family having a litter of puppies which we took care of, living with my partner who has cats and dogs and enjoying caring for both our families pets as well as friends and extended family. House and pet sitting is something I have continued to grow over the last year, having been to many different countries, I have used Trusted Housesitters whilst living in Australia, building up a number of reviews and experiences with cats and dogs, both senior and medicated to young and energetic! Primarily outside of family animal care, all pet sitting I have done has been day and night care, boarding and daily check ins. I am an avid walker and garden lover, and enjoy spending my days reading, exercising and in the sunshine. I enjoy looking after pets this way as we get to spend ample time together and it is hugely beneficial to both of us. I am primarily based in Shrewsbury and am open to pet sitting of all ages and breed. I am currently working part time (remote work) so I am freely available on my days off or am available even on working days as I can bring my work with me! I am an avid walker and available to schedule sits around my working commitments as they are flexible. I am also fully available on weekends. I will always stick to the requirements of pet owners when offering a service at a pet owners home. I always try to stick to the pets routine, where possible, including feeding, medication and walking (if needed) routines. If the garden is safe for use for pet play then this will be a great space to use, if animal care needs to be outside of the house this is also taken into account. I always strive to maintain morning and evening routines and care with regular toilet breaks, bedtime routines and sticking with bedtime rules (such as where the pet sleeps). For overnight sits I am more than happy if the pet sleeps on the bed - whatever the pets preference I am happy with! For dog walking services, I will always respect lead use unless specified by owner specifically, it is my duty that the pet is returned safe and sound so my preference is always to remain on the lead unless specified by owner

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life! Growing up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, tortoises and more has shaped me and I love to nurture and hang out with pets. As well as for my own family, I have dog sat for family friends and have always prided myself on being responsible, respectful, and loving to all furry friends no matter what! I am studying at Falmouth University but am time am so open to many dates including weekdays and weekends! Afternoons are always best but I am also up for a full day or multiple days where my schedule allows it! I am extremely reliable and organised and am happy to negotiate for times that suit you! You and your pets will be my top priority! When staying in your house, I will continually be respectful of your space and your pets routine in order to build trust. I promise to always aim for the most safe and comfortable environment for your pet to thrive in!

“Ruby was great. She came for a meet and greet before the day. My nervous large dog was fine with her as she has a very calm nature. She walked them and dried them off. Very caring. I would use Ruby again.”

“Mat came over prior to walking Bobby to meet him, which we really appreciated. Matt is very friendly and easy to get along with. Bobby liked him instantly. Matt has great communication. He messaged me and sent a picture of Bobby enjoying his walk. We have booked him again for this week and wouldn't hesitate in recommending him.”

About: I've always had pets for as-long as i can remember, cats when i was a newborn living on a boat, then whilst growing up.. a goldfish, then a hamster, 4 guinea pigs and for the past 10 years, my dog. So far I have cared for 15 dogs and counting and look forward to each and every new one to both brighten my day and give them the most awesome break away from home they could hope for! My cousin also use-to own a big dog boarding business and my friends have had dogs and puppies so i have experience with many different dogs through many different stages of their life. My dog has long hair (Shih-tzu) so i have had to brush, comb and wash him many times, thus i have experience and can do this for your dog also if required. I mostly work from home, thus i am avaialble most of the time for dog boarding, walks, sitting etc. I have a flexible schedule around the work i do so i can be flexible to your requirements. I have a closed off yard for pee breaks outside of walk time, i have one friendly Shih-tzu, i can seperate or crate them etc if needed.

About: Ben and I love dogs so much! We’ve been dog sitting since 2019 (though new to Rover!). Your pets will be treated like our own - completely spoilt with fusses, playing and big walks. We work from home and walk our dog twice a day for an hour each time (though can also take them separately if a less active walk is preffered). We have an enclosed garden filled with dog toys for them to roam freely and just have infinite love and patience for our doggy friends. Stick throwing, river paddles and lots of cuddles can be expected. We also love cats (I grew up with 6 - 3 at my mums and 3 at my dad’s) so really happy to do visits for either or sit in your home to keep them company. We’re flexible, reliable and responsible. We bought our house in Falmouth last year so very much here to stay and can be a holiday home for your dog or a reoccurring sitter as it suits you. We work remotely so can spend time with nervous doggies in their own homes to make them as comfortable as possible or keep cats company during the day too. We can have dogs with us (as long as they get on with ours) overnights or just for the day and can do walks as well. Our home is very dog friendly with dogs allowed on sofas and beds. We also really don’t mind sandy or muddy paws. Dogs come first in our house!

About: I’ve had my own dog for the past 7 years and have experience in all areas of caring for her from walking and training to just chilling on the sofa! If you need any help, from walks to just company for you pup, I believe I can give you the help you’re looking for. My availability is flexible, and adjusts weekly, so if you know you’ll need my services, make sure you book in advance to avoid disappointment! I can adapt to any friendly home environment and am happy to provide cuddles and company for your pup as long as you provide poo bags an lead and treats if needed! Am happy working with any size dog - however for walking I am used to small/ medium sized dogs.

“Poppy arrived promptly and immediately struck a great pairing with (also) Poppy. Poppy would be very happy to see Poppy again :)”

About: I’ve lived with cats my whole life, from strays to kittens, at one point we had seven ! I also have experience house sitting, baby sitting and dog sitting. I’m currently back from travelling and searching for a more permanent job so I can completely work around any schedule needed. I’m happy to cover hours during the day, walks, or overnight stays ! I only offer services currently out of my own home as we have a cat and a tortoise that would be particularly against a canine visitor ! I aim to create a secure and trusted environment so you can travel/work/holiday stress free without worrying about the pets at home :)

About: Im a student missing my dog at home and looking to help with walks or drop ins as available! I have volunteered since i was 14 in canine fields, up until recently where i helped out with cleaning, training and walking dogs of all varieties and temperaments. Im currently in my final year as a Zoology student so any break to work with your pets will be taken! I have very high availability but if you have any specific days in mind, do drop me a message and we can figure something out🐾 Can be easily adaptable with the space provided in your home and take your pets out at a rate thats suitable or accustomed to them!

About: When I was young, my mum worked as a dog sitter so I became very used to having a different dog in our house every week! We also rescued a dog which had puppies which we went on to keep one of - so I’ve always been around pets. I now have my own 2 year old beddy whippet who I got when he 8 weeks old. It’s been a real experience bringing him up from a puppy and training him. I read so many books and learnt as much as I could about dogs and their nature and so have learnt to have a great understanding of dog behaviour and body language. I work as a photographer, so I’m either away a lot, or home all the time! When I’m home I like to take our dog for a lovely walk in the morning and then keep him company through the day while I work. Although I only have a very small courtyard at home, I live about 100yrds away from two lovely parks. Our house is very open plan with lots of sofas & chairs to lounge on!

About: I have personal experience with giving pets medication/shots and high-anxiety dogs - my own dog is extremely anxious and I have found many ways to calm her. I have had a cat and a dog since I was 5 years old (a Bengal cat and a Hungarian Vizsla!) and have been surrounded by lots of different animals through my friends and family. I am currently doing an internship, but I can do this remotely, so I can work from anywhere at any time! I enjoy walking especially in different areas of cornwall and going to the beach and swimming - I am trying to do this at least once a week throughout the whole year! I am a very loving person who will happily play and cuddle your animal (if it is comfortable). I am also very flexible in energy levels - I can easily be both high energy and low energy depending on what the specific animal wants and what it is best for it :)

About: Alongside owning my own dog and raising her from a puppy I have also looked after friends and families pups ranging in size and exercise requirements I’m a university student so have a flexible schedule and love any excuse to get outside and enjoy the beautiful Falmouth area. I have plenty of free time to give you pup some love and attention I live close to the beach and the coastal path is a short walk from my house which provides fantastic areas for walking. I operate on a leave no trace basis both outside and when I am in someone else’s space

About: I have been a dog walker for pets in my neighbourhood for many years in both braintree/cornwall and I have work experience at a local dog groomers. I am very passionate about animal care, having always spent time around horses and with my own dog at home. I am a full time student so my timetable varies but is pretty flexible at the moment:) I can usually sort out my uni work around other work so would be available most of the time ! When my dog stays with me, he has plenty of space inside and our large back garden which is fenced off is perfect for pets. I live close to the beach which is perfect for dog walks.

“Tom arrived on time to meet Daphne initially as we’ve just moved here. Then Tom took her out for a walk and all went well, Daphne enjoyed meeting and walking with Tom.”

About: Over the past few years, I have looked after a number of pets, walking and feeding them and monitoring them after visits to the vet. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time to look after pets. I love going on long walks, and I live near lots of green spaces that are very dog-friendly. I can't offer any pet sitting services at my own home but I am more than happy to come to you and very happy to take the pets in my car if necessary!

About: Animals have always been at the heart of my life. Growing up, my home was filled with dogs, cats, tortoises and more caring for them wasn’t a chore, it was something I genuinely loved. That passion has never left me. I find real joy in spending time with animals, understanding their personalities and making sure they feel safe and loved. Beyond my upbringing, I have hands on dogsitting experience caring for pets over extended periods, so I know what it takes to step in as a trusted carer. I’m attentive to each animal’s individual needs and always go the extra mile to ensure they’re comfortable, stimulated and happy. When your pet is with me, they’re not just being looked after they’re being genuinely cared for by someone who truly loves animals. Animals have always been at the heart of my life.

“Charlie loved Helen from the offset. Helen communicated well and Charlie looked so happy in the pictures she sent of their walk. I was confident that Helen was taking good care of Charlie!”
