Dog Walking Headcorn

“Lucy was amazing with my dachshund waffle. She managed to help me out short notice and was very flexible and accommodating. Waffle looked like he really enjoyed his walks with Lucy and I received some lovely pictures. Would definitely recommend Lucy and will be using her again in the future!”

About: Hi, I’m Zimi! 🐶 I’ve been caring for pets for around 20 years, including running my own dog walking and pet sitting business and studying animal care in college. Along the way, I’ve had the joy of working with all kinds of pets, from playful puppies to older dogs, and even travelling across Europe helping large groups of rescue dogs. This gave me lots of experience reading dog body language, understanding different temperaments, and making sure every dog feels safe and happy. I have experience with training and mental stimulation with fun games! I also have my own rescue dog who is reactive, which has taught me a lot about patience, calm handling, and understanding anxious or shy dogs. Because of this, I’m especially good with dogs who need a little extra reassurance and care. Right now, I don’t host dogs at my home, but I love walking, visiting, and spending time with pets in their own environment, giving them plenty of love, attention, and fun while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and great at following routines. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or shy and slow-paced, I adjust my approach to suit their personality and needs. I’m especially comfortable with dogs who need a calm presence, extra reassurance, or gentle handling. I’m currently working part time with an incredibly flexible schedule, so please feel free to ask about any timings that you might need and we can go from there. I take the safety and wellbeing of every pet very seriously. Every walk, visit, and in-home stay is carefully planned to ensure your dog or cat feels secure, happy, and comfortable! I pay close attention to body language, energy levels, and cues, so pets always feel supported and stress free. I provide a calm, structured environment, whether we’re walking outside, exploring new spaces, or staying at home. For pets with special needs, anxiety, or shyness, I’m especially attentive and patient, making sure routines are followed and pets feel safe. I communicate openly with owners, sending regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I strive to create an environment where pets and their humans feel confident and relaxed. I am very empathetic and understand how hard it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care, so I strive to deliver a service I myself would be happy with.

“Abbie was really friendly & my dog loves going for walks with her & I feel safe knowing where they’ve walked & for how long etc. Would definitely recommend Abbie and will be booking again as she’s reliable & very flexible about changes.”

About: I am a farmers daughter so grew up surrounded by animals. I have 53 years experience with dogs of all kinds, from playful pups to golden oldies. My main focus is animal care because I love them. I do casual work occasionally but I am mostly free to help those who may need it. Pets need attention as they are reliant on you for their care needs. If a dog has an accident for instance, like our old lady does sometimes it means I missed a signal, not that she's a bad girl, because she certainly is not. Regular walks or runs in open spaces, good food, grooming and lots of fuss are essential to their happiness. Plenty of patience is also required for proper training and of course lots of rewards for good behaviour. My weight limit for walking dogs is 14kg. I am DBS checked and carry my own insurance, as well as that offered by Rover. I am very discrete, and the only people who know where I work and who I work for are my immediate family. This protects your privacy and my safety. I love my work as much as I love the animals I care for, their welfare is my priority at all times. I will take time gerting to know your animals and gaining their trust. Once this is achieved I am more than happy to take dogs further afield for walks if it is required, such as parks or woodlands. But I will generally walk them at least twice a day locally if it is not.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs from the age of 10 years old, personal pets , friends and other families in my local area. Previously I have been relied on when pet owners need sitters / walkers - I work from home so am able to stay in where necessary and take lunch hours for walks. I work Monday to Friday from home with 2 days in my London office however the rest of the week I am available and looking forward to helping other pet owners out where I can. We have a reasonable garden (fenced off no way of getting out) and there are many walks around my area. I aim to make sure the pet is comfortable with me and make sure they are happy. I work full time in the week however I work from home at least 3-4 days a week so I will be able to take your pet on walks / keep them entertained whilst I am at home. I don’t currently have any pets of my own however I live in a 3 bedroom home which has a fenced off garden. In the area that I live we have access to lots of trails / fields for the pups to play / roam in. I don’t let any of my pets off the lead unless we are in an enclosed area and I feel confident that the dog / pawrents are ok with this

About: 🐾💛 Welcome to Biscuit Break Pet Care 💛🐾 Hello! My name is Lauren (Ren), and I created Biscuit Break Pet Care, a professional, compassionate and continually developing pet care service based in Smarden, serving the surrounding local villages and Ashford area. 🏡🐾 With over four years of personal animal care experience, alongside professional experience within kennels, catteries, dog walking and pet-sitting businesses, I have cared for a wide variety of animals and understand that every pet has their own individual personality, routine and needs. My approach to pet care is centred around comfort, welfare, low-stress handling and individualised care. I believe pets should be given the time, patience and understanding they need to feel safe and comfortable, whether that means energetic playtime, gentle companionship, enrichment, maintaining a familiar routine, or simply allowing a more nervous pet to have space and settle at their own pace. 💛 I currently provide care for a wide range of companions, including dogs, cats, small mammals, birds, reptiles, aquatics and amphibians. 🐶🐱🐹🦜🦎🐠🐸 Biscuit Break Pet Care is fully insured and DBS checked, and I am continually expanding my knowledge through further education and training, including comprehensive Pet First Aid & CPR training across multiple species.

I offer loving, dependable dog walking and sitting services tailored to your dog's needs and personality. Whether it's energetic walks, playtime, or cozy companionship at home, your furry friend will be in caring, capable hands.

About: I have raised and trained my spaniel, labrador and two children here at our family home in Marden. The dogs are well behaved and friendly! I’m my own boss and work from home, where my dogs always have company. We enjoy country walks locally, as well as trips in the campervan, to Bedgebury and Mote Park. My wife also works from home, so I can provide a dedicated service where necessary. In our home, dogs occupy the open-plan kitchen/diner/patio/garden area of the house, but are allowed into the lounge rooms in the evenings, to relax with the whole family. Our dogs sleep in the diner, with two cages (medium & large) available when security or separation is required.

About: I have taken care of animals especially cats since I was a young girl and have continued to have cats as pets with my daughters. I will be leaving a job soon so I will be around part time and weekends as and when needed. I can do pop ins to feed dogs or cats. And can’t pet sit over night if needed. I have a fenced garden where my fences are high. I will have dogs and cats on a lead who require going outside. See above.

“Great communication and the girls loved their walks with Beth! Definitely will book her again in the future”

About: Hi, I'm Sarah! I recently moved to Staplehurst and have a secure enclosed garden and a park on my doorstep! I'm a massive dog lover, growing up with cats and dogs at home I am very much missing the company a pet can give. Unfortunately, my partner and I are unable to get a dog due to work schedules but often pet sit for friends. I would love to meet you and your furry friend to get to know you both :) I am a midwife, working shifts, and so my work schedule means my availability differs each week. If I am off I do spend a lot of time going out for walks to get in my steps and would love a furry friend to accompany me! I will be happy to adjust my care for your pets to whatever they are used to/suits you. I have an enclosed garden then can run around in safely and a park right on my doorstep.

About: Hello! My name is Hannah and I have looked after dogs and puppies for over 18 years. I am comfortable with training puppies and will also be able to keep up with any training you are currently implementing in your dogs schedule. I've also got a lot of experience in taking care of older dogs, and will be able to provide a loving and cosy home from home for your companion! I work for myself so am able to be at home as much as I need to be. Often, I like to work from cafe’s or similar venues, so if you are comfortable with me taking your dog with me, I am more than happy to do so (they will be very much welcome!). I am used to travelling around the country to look after pets, with the furthest I have gone so far being North Wales! As I am on the road a lot, I have become comfortable with settling in to all different types of homes and welcome any instructions you can provide on how to care for your dog/cat. I appreciate that routine is important with animals, so I aim to maintain the same routine your pet is used to whilst I am staying with them.

“Amazing as always- Millie is so attentive and gives great updates :)”

About: I have had dogs all my life and worked in a pet supply store - I currently have a chocolate lab and two jack russells so I am used to any size, any energy level and any temperament! I am currently in between jobs for a month so I am available on weekdays throughout the whole day. I am fit and active so happy to go on long walks if needed, also happy to play at home with your dog or just keep them company. I am very happy to accommodate the needs of any dog - just let me know if they prefer quiet company or if they want to be a lot more active.

“Hannah was absolutely amazing with our lively, huge 10 month old boisterous puppy. The regular updates were so reassuring and when we arrived home he was so calm. Thank you so much. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Hannah again. This is the first time we’d ever used a dog sitter and are so impressed.”
