Dog Walking Helston

About: I've been around dogs most of my life, I have a gorgeous Border Collie cross at my parents house however I don't get to go home and see her much since moving to Cornwall. I've looked after friends and family's dogs (puppies and older dogs) since I was very young, feeding, walking, grooming and all other important parts of looking after dogs. On weekends I like doing beach and coastal walks so I am happy to take dogs on long walks or short walks depending on their needs. I have decided to offer my dog-walking and boarding services because I miss being around dogs! I will treat all dog guests as part of the family, lots of cuddles and love! I'm currently working full time, but I work just down the road from my office so can pop home when needed. I am happy to look after dogs for long periods of time including when i need to be in the office provided dogs are happy being home alone or comfortable being brought into the office with me (dog friendly company). I'm available for boarding on the weekends or evenings during the week. I live in a house with a garden, only a short walk to local lake and forest walks, plus a short drive to many beaches.

“Dolly was an excellent communicator. As it transpired, we didn't need the help due to a change in plans - but she was incredibly helpful with discussing the logistics. I definitely plan to book with her again.”

“Rufus absolutely loved going out for walks with Ellen, she is so calm and knows how to treat dogs well. Rufus knew when she was coming to pick him up, and would start getting excited waiting by the door. The next time I need a dog walker I will be contacting Ellen first! Rufus and I would highly recommend her. 🐕🐾♥️”

“I used Sarah's dog walking services whilst we were staying in the area for a wedding. Communication was good and she asked questions to best tailor my dog's walk and sent photos and a report card straight after the walk. My dog was at ease with Sarah straight away and clearly enjoyed her walk! I would definitely use Sarah's services again when next in Cornwall.”

About: I'm a recently qualified veterinarian, about to graduate from the University of Surrey, who has moved back home to Cornwall for the summer before starting work as a practising vet in September! I have always had a cat and dogs within the family, a lover of doggo cuddles and company! I have also worked at kennels, catteries and veterinary clinics as placement for my degree. I am available most weekdays until September and have a car, allowing me to provide reliable pet care within a 15 mile radius of Camborne! Please let me know of any specific requirements you have when it comes to looking after your gorgeous, precious pets! I am happy to take them out in my car for walks or around the area!

“Lara is a very friendly walker who my dog really liked from the start. We chatted about Daphne’s needs and she listened and took in board what I said. She’s clear about what she can offer in terms of availability which I find so helpful.”

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.

“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: I have grown up with a cat as well as frequently looking after other peoples dogs via walking and house sitting. I have a degree in Zoology and I volunteer at the Seal Sanctuary aswell so care greatly about animals :) I currently only work part time as a swimming teacher so I can work most hours of the week. Wednesday’s I volunteer at the Seal Sanctuary so really that is the only day I cannot do. I can be on the cautious side when looking after another owner’s pet to make sure it is safe for them, while still allowing the pet to have fun and enjoy themselves.

When possible I prefer to arrange a quick drop in first so we can discuss your pet’s routine and go through any specific requirements or needs they may have.

I have Public Liability Insurance in place. I’m available for dog walking or letting out/feeding, mornings, lunchtimes and also evenings - particularly useful for late shift workers, happy to let out/feeding/walk.

I can also offer occasional sitting in my home if you’re heading out for the day etc I have a large car with secure boot for transporting dogs if needed to area for walks. Equally I’m happy to just let out/feeding/whatever is required.

“Cara was fantastic! She was on time, sent lots of pictures, and Albie had long, awesome walks with her! He was super happy when I got home. I would totally book again. Thanks again, Cara.”

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: 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: I have taken care of my friends and family’s dogs for many years, including walking, feeding and bathing and generally showing them lots of love. I also fostered a rescue for a year before he found his forever home, so have first hand experience with the daily looking after of a dog. We have no dogs in the house currently. I work from home a lot and I am free for boarding and dog walking throughout the week in the mornings, lunchtime and evenings and all weekend. I am free for general boarding and pet care continually. I have a fully walled back garden and gated front garden, on a quiet back street in Penzance, with a large park 20 metres away.

About: My whole life I’ve been surrounded by dogs, I even grew up with Irish wolfhounds, so know how to handle the larger breeds. I’m very reliable and have walked dogs for a long time, and due to my love for animals, I’ll enjoy walking your dog just as much as they will. Im currently working a part time job so have plenty of free time to walk and play with your pups! I would love to pursue dog walking as a full time job and therefore my availability is very flexible. I have a large, fenced, secure garden and will keep you dogs entertained in their favourite way. Whether that be playing fetch or cuddling up with tummy scratches!!

About: I’ve been brought up around dogs my whole life so have learnt a lot of caring responsibilities. With bathing, walking, feeding, administering medication and just loving them! I am currently at university so I live quite a busy life! However, around my studies I am able to fit in some dog walking/ sitting. My availability can vary but I can keep this up to date on the calendar and provide plenty of notice. Unfortunately due to my dogs at home not being too friendly I can’t look after your dogs in my own home. However, in your home I’ll be sure to keep an eye on them, meet their needs and give them plenty of attention! If there are any additional needs e.g regular medications or training, if you let me know this before I will make sure I stick to any plans!
