Dog Walking Leighton Buzzard

About: I had 5 years experience with my gorgeous rescue cocker spaniel Lilly. When she arrived I worked to train her and boost her confidence in a home environment after a sad start in life. I matched her energy and always had time to play and run around with her. Due to a relationship split, I don't get to see her but still have all the love to give. I have looked after dogs overnight, am happy to provide long walks, games, cuddles and have even taken pups to private fields for off lead fun! Dogs in my house are part of the family and would be allowed on my furniture (please state otherwise if that's not ok for you). I work from home 2-3 days of the week and have an hour lunch break for walks. During the day, I move between desk space and the sofa so can sit with your pup and keep them company if they need a companion. I'm happy to play fetch, tug or any other games to keep your family member entertained. I work occasional weekends and occasionally head out with friends but this would be planned in advance. I'm more than happy to take care of dogs over a weekend should you wish to go away. I will respect your meal and walk times and try to keep your routine going. I have a fenced in private garden, one gate wouldn't be suitable for really small dogs such as chihuahuas but I can adapt this with notice. Until i know your pups habits, I would accompany them at all times in the garden. I keep water bowls accessible in multiple rooms and make homely areas for your pooch to snuggle up in at any point of the day. I will always provide walks come rain or shine, however, I will not walk pups in the day if the temperature reaches 20 degrees and over.

About: Licence reference: CB/LANW/26/003325 Hi there — I’m Sara! Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is what I truly love. Whether you’ve got a playful pup who thrives on activity, a chilled companion who prefers gentle company, or a senior dog who needs a slower pace and extra care, I make sure every guest feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Dog Daycare - Supervised playgroups matched by size, age, and temperament - Enrichment, walks, and structured rest breaks - Photo/video updates so you can follow the fun Dog Boarding - Comfortable, home-from-home stays with cosy sleep setups - Routine kept consistent (your dog’s own food, schedule, and comforts) - Medication administered and special diets supported Safety & Standards - Temperament meet-and-greet before the first visit - Vaccination and health requirements in place - Clean and secure environment My aim is simple: you relax, knowing your dog is getting plenty of love, enrichment, and cuddles — and will come home content and happily tired. Because I work from home, pet care is woven into my day. I already have a dog, so regular walks and toilet breaks are part of my routine and easily extended to guests. A typical day looks like: - Morning: Up to 1 hour walk, then breakfast. - Lunchtime: neighbourhood walk to stretch legs and reset. - Evening: walk, dinner, and a final let-out before bed. If not cold, my garden door is always open so your pups can go in and out as he/she wants. If not, regular toilet breaks are provided. I tailor frequency for puppies or seniors, can administer meds, and keep your dog’s schedule consistent. With supervised introductions, friendly dogs can socialise with mine; if needed, I’m also set up to keep dogs separate and calm. You’ll get updates throughout the day so you can relax knowing their needs are covered. Secure setup: I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. Friendly resident dog: Introductions are slow and supervised, and I can keep dogs separate if they prefer solo time. Flexible spaces: I use baby gates to manage zones. I can crate your dog on request to match training or provide a cosy den. Clean & hazard-free: I keep a tidy home, store food/chemicals out of reach, use pet-safe cleaning products, most of them are plant-based. Constant supervision: I work from home, so dogs get regular toilet breaks, walks, and check-ins throughout the day, plus structured rest. Health & wellbeing: I follow your dog’s routine (diet, meds, cues). I ask for up-to-date vaccinations and your vet’s contact for peace of mind. Comfortable sleep: Quiet, comfy sleeping areas—happy to use your dog’s own bed/blanket to keep things familiar. Clear communication: You’ll receive photo/video updates and honest feedback. I do a meet-and-greet before the first stay to align on needs and temperament. Out & about: Walks are on-lead unless you’ve approved off-lead time in a secure area. ID tags and safety checks are standard.

About: I've looked after dogs all over the world whilst travelling as well as lots of dogs on trusted house sitters in the UK, have plenty experience looking after rescues and reactive dogs so send me a message if you have specific requirements I work remotely so happy to look after dogs from wherever. I'm an early riser so happy to take dogs out for walks early if needed. We have a large walled back garden for play time and lots of toys and beds Fully fenced large back garden for a dogs space, plenty of beds for those dogs with sleepier natures. Dogs will get regular play time and fuss from us

“Jemma was so great! I had a last minute work situation come up and was in a bit of a squeeze. We were very hesitant to leave Pablo with someone we’d never met before but Jemma put us at ease so quickly and Pablo was a big fan! The regular updates and photos were lovely to see whilst away; and we will definitely be rebooking with Jemma in the future. Thank you!”

“Jimmy loves Oliver and he is great with him. Oliver is great at staying in touch and sending regular updates and photos. I would highly recommend him for walks and dog sitting.”

About: Hi! I’m Guy, a massive dog lover based in Wing village, surrounded by beautiful countryside and plenty of lovely walks right on our doorstep. Dogs have always been a big part of my life: I grew up with a loyal German Shepherd, later had several energetic Border Collies, and now share my home with our calm and friendly Labrador. Over the years, we’ve also welcomed many friends’ dogs into our home while they were away, so I’m very used to caring for dogs with all sorts of personalities and routines. I was lucky enough to retire early, which means I have lots of time to dedicate to the things I enjoy - staying active, being outdoors, and spending time with dogs. I’m usually at home apart from short school runs for our two boys (aged 9 and 8), who both love animals and know how to treat them gently and respectfully. My wife also mostly works from home, so your dog will never be short of company, walks, or cuddles. We have a secure, fully fenced garden that’s perfect for safe outdoor play and relaxation. Since we have our own Labrador, it’s ideal if your dog is comfortable around other dogs and children. Whether your dog enjoys long adventures or prefers a gentle stroll and quiet naps, I’ll adapt to their personality and make sure they feel at home. At home full time other than school runs while my wife also regularly works from home. I generally walk the dogs twice a day while my wife also adds additional walks. Our garden is fully fenced as we have our own dog so understand the security it requires. Our dog does come upstairs although she does sneak up to watch my wife home work and prefer this in visiting dogs.

“Emma is such a nice person and generally loves dogs - she’s very professional, punctual and keeps you updated throughout. I’m so pleased I have found her to walk my pup, I would recommend her 100 times over. Thank you Emma x”

“Karolina took Yoshi on a wonderful walk this morning! Yoshi had a great time, he’s come back absolutely pooped and fast asleep as I write this review. Karolina is one of our go to sitters/walkers for Yoshi as she’s super lovely, always on time and sends great updates! Thank you ☺️”

“Matthew was great! He helped us with a last minute booking, he took our anxious, reactive fluff ball out for a long morning walk in the pouring rain (sorry!) Matthew was on time, super responsive and excellent with our pup. We’ll definitely book again :)”

About: I run my own full time dog walking and pet sitting business, Little Paws Pet Care 🐾 My background includes studies in Animal Care at school and at Shuttleworth College. I am Canine First Aid trained and have experience with senior dogs and looking after pets with medical conditions. I also have two rabbits named Eevee and Luna, they are rescue sisters and are 8 years old 🐰 Managing my business on a full time basis, some of my walk slots are already taken, but I do have limited availability. Aside from weekdays, I offer my services during the evenings and weekends, please be aware that these slots are filling up quickly! When pet sitting, I prioritise a safe and cozy atmosphere. I achieve this by thoroughly understanding and following the owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, exercise routines, and any specific needs the pets may have. I always send regular updates, including photos and videos.

About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals and have hands on experience caring for dogs. I have a 6 year old Cockapoo of my own, so I’m very familiar with the day to day care, exercise, feeding, playtime, grooming and attention dogs need. I also currently work as a dog walker and pet sitter, caring for dogs with different personalities, needs and routines. I really enjoy getting to know each dog and making sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable while they’re in my care. I’m responsible, caring and patient, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s individual routine and needs. Whether it’s a walk, drop in visit, day care or house sitting, I treat every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I am currently available full time, so please don’t hesitate to message me. I’d love to help and care for you’re pets and I look forward to hearing from you!😊 I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe and settled in their own home while their owners are away. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, toilet breaks, walks, playtime and plenty of cuddles and attention. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and individual needs, whether they prefer lots of play and exercise or a quieter, relaxed environment. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pet is happy and being well cared for. I always make sure their home is left clean and secure when I leave.

About: I am easygoing, but not at all a pushover. I like to think I have a firm but gentle touch, and have a good degree of empathy. Having worked with animals - from horses to cats to dogs to chickens! - my experiences of their psychology have stood me in good stead when making new four- (and two!) legged acquaintances.
 I've always thought dogs to be some of the best judges of character and human nature, and honestly, you just can't hide your own true self from their animal instincts. They see, they know and they will make up their own mind about you whether you like it or not! As for cats, well, they are an enigma wrapped in a mystery drowning in a tub of Dreamies. Would we change them? Never!
 So all I can say is, if I meet your dog/cat/chicken and they give their paw/claw of approval, what better endorsement is there? Dog walking, cat sitting and general animal care if my full time business, and I make myself available most weekends. I have no problem with short notice bookings and take extra care to always heed to concerns and needs of my clients. I don’t board dogs or cats at my own residence as this would be too stressful for my own cat boss, but am happy to housesit if available to do so. This has always proved to be a more agreeable arrangement as there is no place like home for a dog or cat who are as much a member of the family as any other relative!

“Tabitha was brilliant, she was so loving and attentive to my two dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again my dogs loved going out with her for walks”

“Jamie is fantastic. Duke was very happy to go on his walks and the feedback and support Jamie has shared in just a short amount of time has helped and has put me at ease. I feel very comfortable and happy that Jamie is our walker for Duke and I’m sure will bring Duke on leaps and bounds along his journey of development.”

About: I have been around animals all my life, we always had pets in the house growing up and as a teen I would often cat and dog sit for friends and family then I went on to study animal care at college for 2 years, volunteered at an animal shelter for 3 years and have had many kennel and cattery jobs since then and done plenty of dog walking on the side and currently still working part time at a kennels and have my own dog at home Having been around and worked with animals so much I enjoy being around them more than people, animals are my passion and I am experienced in reading animals body language and understanding them as best I can, I am also experienced in working with both puppies/kittens and senior dogs and cats I'm now currently working full time so I may not always be available during some weekdays, I try to keep my rover calendar updates around my work rota Since I have a dog at home that is not always a fan of other dogs I won't be taking care of dogs in my home and due to my work I no longer do overnight house sittings but I'm always happy to drop in and check up/hang out with your dog or cat when available and I'm happy to do dog walks. I understand having someone else in your home can be unnerving but I pride myself on being respectful of other people's property when in your homes. As for pet care I will do whatever tasks you ask, I love instructions so any info you have on your pet and their routine is much appreciated so I can offer the same level of care their owner usually would

“Alex comes highly recommended, very punctual and kept me updated with photos. Will be using Alex again in the future :)”

About: I am an avid pet lover and I understand how important it is to know your pets are well looked after when you’re not around. My pets are family members and are well looked after and treated as an integral part of the family. Whilst working at Companion Care Vets, I was able to offer assistance in animal care, assist in operations, dispense and help administer medications, so I am well versed in the care of animals, especially those with additional needs. I was also able to offer my home to stray cats and dogs until they were rehomed. No dog or cat is too big or too small! I have cared for a few hour old kittens to Great Danes! I have a garden, transport and spare room in my house if animals wanted/required their own space. I work from home, so I am always around to shower your pet with love and spoil them with play time. It’s their holiday too! I have a self contained garden for toilet breaks and zoomies. I have a spare room in case the fur babies need their own space whilst staying with me.

“Sophie was brilliant with Rocky and he had a great time. We’re looking forward to rebooking with Sophie soon ??”
