Dog Walking Harborough

About: I love cats and dogs and had them as pets for most of my life. I currently have two cats myself Luna and Lexie and I know the importance of your animals being able to stay in there own environment when you go away. The stress is enough going away without having to worry about your furry friends not being happy.

About: I am a paediatric nurse by profession and have a lot of free time around shifts! I have two cats, my indoor cat Cleo and outdoor adopted cat Norman! Myself and my partner dog sit for Bear a 7 year old Pomchi semi regularly but I am looking to meet some new furry friends I work shifts, normally 2/3 a week and on my days off have no strict routine! I have a lot of free time and am looking to fill it! I enjoy getting outside on my days off and long walks would suit me perfectly! I am comfortable caring for dogs from puppy to elderly. Have 3 years experience with a feisty PomChi who has both on and off lead time which I am comfortable facilitating. I have two cats, both indoor and outdoor! Am comfortable handling cats and have taught mine to be happy cuddling and being picked up! I love to fuss and play and am also happy clipping claws and administering meds if needed

“This was Dagny’s first dog walk with Meg and he had a great experience. Meg was punctual, reliable and I could tell she genuinely cared about the well-being of my dog. Dagny was a happy, well-exercised dog whilst I was away for the day. I also appreciated the updates I received after the walk, via text. It gave me peace of mind knowing Dagny was in good hands. I highly recommend Meg to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, including puppies, senior pets, and nervous animals. I focus on creating a calm and safe environment where pets feel comfortable and can stick closely to their normal routines. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and reliability. I take time to understand each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s extra patience on walks, structured routines, or gentle care for older pets. I always aim to build trust quickly with both pets and owners, and I provide clear, regular updates so owners feel reassured while they are away. My partner also frequently assists me with pet care and often stays with me during house sits. He has been around animals his entire life, and his mum works in the animal care field, so he grew up helping to care for a variety of pets and is very confident and comfortable around them. My sister also occasionally helps out, she has just completed her extended level 3 Animal care Qualification and has years of animal and pet work experience. Together, we provide plenty of companionship, attention, and consistency, helping pets feel settled and secure while their owners are away. I am punctual, responsible, and committed to making sure every pet is well cared for, exercised, and given plenty of attention. I am currently working and studying from home so I am available for all pet needs and services. Caring for pets is already apart of my daily routine having many pets myself. I’m able to care for pets both in my own home and in the pet owner’s home, depending on what is most comfortable for the pet and preferred by the owner. When caring for pets in the owner’s home, I aim to keep their routine as normal as possible. This includes feeding, fresh water, litter tray cleaning, playtime, and any specific instructions such as medication. I also make sure the home is left clean and secure, and I provide regular updates with photos so the owner has peace of mind. When caring for pets in my own home, I provide a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment. I ensure they have a comfortable space, follow their usual feeding routine, and give them plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for during their stay. In both cases, my priority is always the pet’s wellbeing, comfort, and safety.

About: 🐾Get £15 OFF your first booking!🐾 Use code: GABRID21881 at checkout. I am a qualified veterinary nurse with experience caring for a wide range of animals. My training has given me a strong understanding of animal health, behaviour, and wellbeing. I love providing pets with the care, attention, and reassurance they need. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets and I always aim to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I currently work in a kennels where I care for dogs daily, including feeding, exercise, cleaning and making sure they are comfortable and happy. I also volunteered at a veterinary practice before starting university, which gave me early experience working with animals in a professional environment. I have owned dogs and cats my whole life and currently have two dogs and two cats. Buddy is my English Bull Terrier and Coco is my Shar Pei, who is a rescue and can be reactive at times which has given me a lot of experience understanding dog behaviour and working with more challenging personalities. I also have two cats, Cookie and Colin and Cookie is a senior cat with arthritis so I’m very familiar with caring for older pets and managing their comfort. Buddy also has kidney disease, so I understand the importance of specialised diets, medication and monitoring health closely. Because of my own pets and my veterinary nursing training, I’m very confident providing patient, attentive care and making sure every animal feels safe, loved and comfortable. I have also pet sat for friends and always make sure pets receive plenty of love, exercise and routine so they feel safe and happy while their owners are away. I currently work mornings and afternoons at a kennels from 7:30am–12pm and 2pm–5pm, with a two-hour break during the day where I can return to care for pets. I’m available before work, during my lunch break and from 5pm onwards in the evening. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including feeding schedules and walks. If needed, I can do a morning walk, a walk during my lunch break and an evening walk. For dogs that enjoy more exercise, I’m also happy to take them to paddocks so they can have a safe run around and burn off energy. On Fridays I work an evening shift at a pub, so I would only be available with your pet from around 5pm–6pm before leaving for work and returning around midnight. Because of this I usually avoid Friday bookings, but I’m happy to discuss it with owners if this schedule still suits their pet. On Saturdays I work at the pub from 12pm–6pm, so I’m available in the morning and again in the evening. I am fully available on Sundays. I currently offer pet care in the owner’s home rather than bringing pets to my own home. I find that many animals feel much more relaxed and comfortable staying in their familiar environment, where they have their usual routine, smells and surroundings. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, calm and well cared for while their owners are away. As a veterinary nursing student, I am confident handling animals safely and recognising signs of stress or illness. I am experienced in administering medication, following specialised diets and making sure pets receive the care and attention they need. I will always follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime and rest. I am also very happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand, such as going for a walk together with the owner and their dog. This allows the pet to get to know me first and helps everyone feel comfortable and confident before any booking.

“Justin was excellent with Vinny. Vinny really took to him on their meet and greet. This is a great app with photos and updates of the walks. I wouldn't hesitate to use Justin again.”

About: Experienced and reliable dog carer with a strong background in both independent and structured settings. Previously ran a successful dog-walking business before transitioning into full-time travel, where I’ve spent the past three years pet-sitting and working with dogs across Asia, Australia, Central America, and South America. My experience includes caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs, as well as hands-on work in dog shelters in Mexico and Australia. Confident in handling multiple dogs, maintaining routines, and ensuring each animal receives attentive, individual care. Working full-time ( mon- fri) with a remote job, the job is not very demanding and doesn’t need me at my desk the whole time so in between tasks I can play around and let them out for a potty break. I care for pets in the owner’s home by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible, keeping feeding times, walks, play, and rest consistent to reduce stress. I make sure they feel comfortable in their own environment by giving them attention, exercise, and mental stimulation suited to their personality and energy levels. I keep the home clean and organised, follow any specific instructions closely, and monitor their health and behaviour throughout. I also provide regular updates so owners feel confident their pet is safe, settled, and well cared for in their absence.

About: I understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe and happy while their people are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your dog feels loved I’m taking a break from my career to focus on happiness — and what better way to do that than spending time with animals I adore. I care for pets in their own home by keeping them happy, following their routine, giving plenty of love, playtime, and attention, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away

“Danii was excellent from start to finish. She instantly bonded with our puppy when she first met him and kept us constantly reassured throughout the visits and walks. We will definitely be using her services again, as she immediately made us feel comfortable and confident in leaving our dog in her care.”
