Dog Walking Hartlepool

About: I love dogs and have 4 years of experience caring for my Cockapoo, as well as 1 year of experience looking after a friend’s puppy. I also work in a charity that helps dogs, which has given me even more experience and a strong understanding of how important it is to provide dogs with kindness, patience and care. I enjoy spending time with dogs and keeping them happy and active. I can play fetch with them indoors or in the garden, take them for walks on a lead, brush their coats, and clean their paws after walks or when they’ve been outside. I’m also happy to clean them up after they’ve done their business. I’m a caring, responsible and patient person, and I will treat every dog as if they were my own. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, loved and well looked after. 🐶❤️ I’m currently working from home and I will walk my dog at 10 am on weekdays. If I have work to do offline such as at schools or store, I will walk him at 7 am. I have plenty of time for afternoon or evening when I finish work or have a break from work to look after pets who need toilet breaks or feeding. I have a fenced garden in a semi-detached house and a park within 5 minutes walk from the house. I love walking dogs in the park and playing balls with them for a bit. I also like playing hide and seek games with them in the house and let them use their energy for a bit after their treats and naps.

“She was excellent with Jerry Lee, very friendly and helpful, I’d definitely ask her back, Jerry Lee loves her company. 😊”

About: Hello. I'm Dan, 34 years old and a lot of free time giving me the opportunity to help you and your pets. I'm an avid animal lover of all types and would welcome all invitations to walk, watch over and treat your best friends as mine too. I like to stay active, keeping a regular walking distance everyday and would happily welcome company on those walks. Whether that be short routes around the neighbourhood or a much longer trek in the hopes of tiring them out by the end of the day. I am a licenced first aider with lots of experience fostering dogs and cats in the past with severe medical conditions and other special requirements. In those situations I'm well trained to remain calm under pressure and skilled at assisting your pet in times of need.

About: I've looked after my sister's large dog since she was a puppy, fed her and took her out for walks and minded her when my sister went away. I love when my friends bring their dogs when we go for walks so I can give them lots of attention and cuddles. When out in public I always stroke dogs with permission and talk to them Currently I have more free time than usual and I am available during the week and weekend for hourly/ daily visits and for overnight stays. I live in Hartlepool so I'd be willing to do drop in visits and walks for anyone living within 10 miles of me and I would stay in your home up to 35-40 miles away from where I live. But please ask as I might be able to make exceptions I can do walks/stays after 17:30 in the teesside area and potentially could do a drop in visit during the day depending on where you live I'd care for the pets in the owners home and follow the instructions they gave me about keeping their pets safe, hopefully this would make life easier for the owner

About: Hi I’m Paris, an animal carer with 3 years experience including pet sitting, looking after my own pets, and volunteering to help sick and injured stray animals in my local community. Prior to this, I took an L3 advanced Animal Care course at East Durham College, where I regularly practiced the safe handling and care of a wide variety of species. Animal welfare is my strongest interest. I offer a range of services including drop-ins, house-sitting, and dog-walking. Feel free to reach out with any enquiries - I’m happy to chat! I take care of animals every day, whether they’re mine or yours, and I love spending as much time with them as possible. I regularly update the calendar on my profile, so you can always see my availability. I organise a free meet & greet session for every first-time booking - I’ll meet you and your pet/s in person, ask some questions, and take notes. I’ll learn how their normal behaviour looks like, their likes and dislikes, any routines they might have, specialised care they might require, and more. We’ll also discuss key arrangements, security measures, and your preferred method of contact.

“Very friendly, professional and prompt service. My dog seemed to have good time and came home ready for a nap. Though reluctant to leave with a stranger on the first day, she was keen to go out by day four. All in all a great service during a very busy time.”

About: Myself and my partner Timmy, have both taken care of several dogs over the past three years, all of different breeds. This has involved walking, feeding and boarding. We absolutely love animals, the outdoors and going for walks. We are both very active. We currently live in Prestwich but like exploring new walks. We both own a car and can drive to take your dog further afield to a more secluded place if needed.😌 I am currently a primary school teacher full time and live in the North East. Myself and Timmy are both available after work, most evenings from 4:30 onwards and free on weekends for long walks/ boarding. We have a large garden that is fenced and gated at the front with both patio and grass. There are no other pets or children in my home. It is also a smoke free house.

About: I have had many pets over the years. From a donkey, goats, chickens and of course dogs! I stumbled across offering care for other people's dogs by accident really, but it works really well. I care for our extended family and friends dogs in my home while they go away on holiday. I lost my gorgeous dog four years ago and miss him terribly. I decided this would be a great way to enjoy having the company of a dog again. My dog was a whippet so I know what a good walk looks like! I am are registered on trusted house sitters and have five star reviews from all my sits. I have no dogs myself so your dog would be the only dog to be cared for whilst with me. You can go away knowing your dog would be having a lovely holiday with me while you are having your own holiday. They fit in as my pet for the duration of their stay. If I stayed in your home you could rest assured I know how to look after a home. I have been married for over 40 years. I have an acre garden so grass cutting does not faze me either.

About: I have a dog, an 11 year old cockapoo called Charlie who've looked after since little. I've also looked after poodles and chihuahuas for friends before. I love going on long walks and playing with Charlie and Id love to do the same with your dog too ! I'm currently a full-time student so I'll be able to walk your dog really any day of the week ! Just give me a heads up and I can be there quick as possible. I have a gated off back garden and a building only people with keys can get access into so it's a very safe and secure area. Also, when it comes to walking dogs in different areas, I'm aware constantly of different potential safety issues (such as roads). Since I've been walking dogs for so long I'm aware of all the little problems like this that might come up whilst on a walk which means that I can prevent any accidents or problems occurring.

About: I have experience with everything from daily care routines and special dietary needs to administering medications. I’ll care for your pets with love and attention, just as if they were my own, and make sure they get plenty of engaging playtime. I work from home, so I’m available for drop-in visits/walks in the morning, at lunch, or in the afternoon/evening. I’m even more flexible with timing on weekends. Please don't hesitate in contacting me. I will treat your home with upmost respect, – I’m naturally clean and tidy! I’ll make sure to stay out of any rooms or areas you’d prefer to keep private. If needed, I’ll clean litter trays, sweep and tidy up any little messes, and keep food bowls clean. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos if you’d like. I live in a three-bedroom house, which has a decent garden that is high and has a secure gate. That can accommodate your pet. Currently, we have two cats at home now, Floki (4 years) and Moshi (3 years) so we (me and my fiancée ) can look after other cats or some small dogs that are cat-friendly.

About: I’m a dog mom to a Siberian Husky mix, and I’ve been caring for dogs since 2015. Over the years, I’ve raised and trained both puppies and rescue dogs, volunteered with animal shelters and rescue groups, and fostered dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality and needs, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and respect I give my own. I’d love to care for your pup and make them feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! I have plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. I can provide regular walks, playtime, and attention based on each dog’s routine and needs. I follow your pet’s routine, keep things tidy, and give them lots of love and attention. I want them to feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away.

About: I'm a 22-year-old dog lover and I've been looking after dogs all my life! I have a long term dog I babysit! A gorgeous 7 year old beagle spaniel cross called "Dennis." I have lots of references- especially Dennis' mum and dad and I have special training in anxious pups, overly active pups and training in senior doggies! I'm great with puppies too and I'm very active myself so they'll be getting that 'wearing -out' walk they deserve! I'm currently working part time but I'm available early mornings all week until around 10.30 am every day apart from Wednesdays. I'm free in the afternoons/ evening's most days as well bar a couple of days but that's all rota dependent as I'm a bartender so we'll have to liase ☺️ I live in a shared house, all dog lovers and all with lovely dogs at home and all willing to care and play with your little one! I do always preface this as a graduates house as I'm more than happy to come to your home to look after your pup if that's preferred, my house has got a back garden where they can play, we have lots of tennis balls and ball launches, etc and we live just by the lovely fields on the town moor and Leazes park. So perfect for both short, long and even playful walks 🐕

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I provide dog walking, puppy visits, and cat care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I understand how important routine, patience, and consistency are — especially for puppies, nervous pets, or those needing a little extra care. I’m also trained in canine first aid and CPR, giving you added peace of mind while your pet is in my care. I’m fully insured, DBS checked, and committed to providing a reliable and professional service. I have a flexible schedule as I run my own pet service business alongside a 0-hour theatre contract, which allows me to manage my time and prioritise pet care bookings. This means I can often accommodate a range of visit times throughout the day. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine, and I plan my schedule carefully to ensure each pet receives reliable, consistent care. I also have my own pets, so I understand the importance of balancing time and making sure every animal gets the attention they need. I’m happy to discuss specific timings and requirements to find what works best for you and your pet. All pet sitting takes place in your home, so your pet can stay in a familiar, comfortable environment and stick to their usual routine. This is especially important for both cats and dogs, helping to reduce stress and keep them settled while you’re away. I take the time to follow your pet’s individual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions. Whether it’s a relaxed walk for your dog or a calm, quiet visit for your cat, everything is tailored to suit their needs and personality. As a lifelong cat owner and experienced pet carer, I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet and entering your home. I’m fully insured, DBS checked, and always respectful of your space. Regular updates and photos can be provided so you can feel reassured and connected while you’re away.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats since I was a baby. Growing up my grandparents also owned parrots, bunnies, dogs of all sizes, cats, tortoises, fish, you name it…my parents always had dogs and cats. I also owned a dog for 11 years. I feel most comfortable around animals :) Being an older sister of 3, I grew up being the responsible one, caretaker and I’d also walk the dogs, train them, feed them and help my parents in any way I could. When I adopted my first own dog, I learned how much love I have to give and how much responsibility it takes to look after a furbaby. He was very anxious and reactive, so it was 11 years of learning and challenges, but he was the sweetest and goodest boy, right up until the end. I’m currently working full-time. For now I’m looking to combine my love for animals and building up a side income during my free time. I’m happy to look after and walk your pets during my free time on the weekends. I can drive which allows me to get to places a bit further out. I cannot have pets in my own home sadly. However, I’m happy to come in and check on your kitten or pooch while you’re away. I can also pet sit if needed and play with, feed and walk your dogs. I can also train and teach your dog (or cat, if they feel like it haha) some tricks. Work on their confidence by using gentle rewards and lots of patience on their walks. I have experience with reactive dogs and I know how important it is to maintain comfort and special care for the sensitive pups.

“Wonderful service again from Craig: Merlin was so excited to see him and couldn’t wait to get out the door. He’s bush-whacked and snoozing now. Thanks Craig!”

“Ollie loved his first walk with Kelly. He came back a tired boy and was sad when she left. We look forward to booking Kelly for future dog walking.”

About: I’ve been around dogs as long as I can remember. since recently moving out, I’ve really miss having them around, and rover is a great way for me to do something I genuinely enjoy. I’m confident with dogs of all sizes and understand patience, routine, exercise, and giving each dog the attention they need. I work full time and live alone, so owning a dog isn’t the right choice for me right now, but that makes me even more excited to help care for other peoples pets. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and affection I’ve always given the dogs in my own family. I work 3 days on and 3 days off. So i’m available full days on my days off. This means walks, play times, and check in’s. And since I don’t own any pets myself at the moment, your dog gets my full attention. I have grown up with dogs and regularly cared for my parents dogs for weeks at a time, making sure they are safe, happy, and sticking to their routines. My home has a safe and secure garden and is directly behind a large football field, woodland area and open fields. And as a police employee with a background check, owner can feel confident their pets are with someone responsible.

About: I have been raised around pets my entire life, and am confident in my ability to care for them. I have cared for both family and friends' pets in the past when needed, and now have my own. I currently study part time, so have plenty time to care for your pets. With summer coming up, my availability is much more flexible due to the term ending :) A pet's safety and comfort is really important to me - I always make sure to provide the care needed and make sure that their owner is confident they are being cared for.

About: I've taken care of dogs of all kinds, growing up with large breeds from being a young age has made me confident with dogs of all temperaments and backgrounds. Being a registered veterinary nurse, I have worked with dogs of all life stages and can provide the essential care they need tailored to them. I work weekdays, but can provide late night check ins for short walks or feeding. I am also available for weekend visits at all times to provide any and all daily requirements I always ensure pets are kept safe, making sure they are kept in a fenced area away from other dogs and people. When on walks they stay close to my side and away from any roads
