Dog Walking Lymington

About: I believe in providing customised care that makes every pet feel safe, happy, and loved in a home environment. My approach is defined by my special skills and dedication to peace of mind for pet parents: Customised Care: I make an effort to understand a pet's unique personality and energy level to create a personalised routine that goes beyond a standard walk or feeding. Tidy Home Guarantee: I will always clean up after every visit, ensuring your home is left just as I found it. Specialised Skills: I am experienced with puppy training on basic commands and comfortable with the specific needs of senior pets, including oral medication administration and managing slower paces. Reliable Communication: I provide regular, detailed updates with photos and videos to give you complete peace of mind while you're away. I'm currently taking a break from my full-time job, which is great because it means I have a completely open and flexible schedule. Pet care is my main focus right now, so I can be available whenever you need me. This allows me to completely tailor my day around your pet, ensuring they get all my attention and their routine stays the same while you're away. I do not offer pet care in my own home. All of my services are provided in the pet owner's home, which I believe is the best environment for any animal. My priority is to ensure your pet remains comfortable and stress-free in their own familiar surroundings, with their routine completely uninterrupted. I take my responsibility to look after your home just as seriously as I do your pet. Having sat for dogs and cats all over the Dorset and Hampshire region, you can trust that I am a reliable and respectful presence in your personal space.

“Ila responds promptly to messages and is a professional, friendly and knowledgeable dog walker. We met in advance and then Teddy had a lovely long forest walk with Ola. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”

About: Hi😄My name is Leena and I’ve been pet sitting for the last 6 years. I’m very confident around all sizes and breeds of dogs that have all different temperaments. Whether you have an energetic, playful, anxious or quiet dog I can meet their needs to be a safe space for them. I can do long energetic fun walks in the forest with your young dog, or short slow sniffing walks for your senior dog! I have been looking after the family dogs for years when everyone goes away. I can follow all instructions and routines to your rules of your home, where the dog is allowed, what times they eat and when they go out. I have a cat myself who is a quiet but loving rescue so i understand every cat is different and has their own character. I adore all cats and kittens. I will feed, water, cuddle, play and let them out. Whether you have a cat flap letting them out for specific times or letting them out through the door just for a little while I can help! I can do regular basis weekly dog walking and come and collect your dog or take it locally. I can also do one-off when needed walking, dog/puppy sitting, dog drop in feeds and cuddles or overnight stay looking after them in your home while you’re on holiday. I have so much care, patience and kindness towards all animals. Having my own cat, I know how important it is to know your pet is in safe hands, and how part of the family they are! I’m always like to do a meet and greet with yourself and your pet so you are able to have confidence in who you leave your pet with and it enables you to show me their routine! I have a full driving licence so i’m able to commute easily and be flexible with availability and times. I’d love to look after your cat, dog or any other animal in the family and help in anyway! I look forward to hearing about your wonderful pets🦮😸🤩🐕😻🥳 I am currently saving for traveling so this is my full time job working with cats & dogs so i’m very flexible to look after your pets whenever you need and on a regular basis!🤩 I can care for your pet in your home. Whether you have a special routine or system when walking or caring for them I can follow this. If you crate your dog, wash or dry them down after a walk, have special rooms they are allowed to I am more than happy to go with this.

About: Full time professional dog sitter; I’ve always had a dog in my life and love dogs! Couldn’t imagine not having them in my life. Love walking dogs, and have a river walk and park on my doorstep. We do not even need to get in the car although we like to venture to the beach often. I have a national trust membership, and take dogs to some amazing places locally. I work as a dog sitter and have the flexibility so am always able to take the dogs out for a nice long walk everyday. Weekends and weekdays work well as we have a dog so another would add to the fun. I am available for them to be dropped off early morning if needed also and am very flexible and accommodating. I have a dog friendly home and they can wonder freely inside the house and access water bowls at all time. I’m Always with them. My garden is fenced as well. I live in a quiet culdesac in a beautiful area. This is a true dog hotel for your fur baby. Spoilt dogs welcome! I try to only take on one dog at a time, although if more than one comes from a family I will accommodate this. I do this to ensure your dog is provided with a high standard of attention and care. Sometimes there maybe a crossover but I try hard to avoid this happening. Walks in the morning and lunchtime, and a last one in the evening if they have energy left. Weekends we will always go for walks and make the most of the area around us which is beautiful I have a walled garden and I ensure I know where the dogs are at all times. I would never leave them unsupervised as this is when mischief arises! Dogs are free to roam the whole home!

About: I have a wealth of experience in the animal industry. I studied Animal Management (level 3 diploma) and am currently studying Veterinary Physiotherapy at university. I have also worked at a local boarding kennels and volunteered at a gundog training centre. I am a student so have free time to pet sit whilst completing university work. I have a few days off a week and only have lectures until 4 at the latest. I have a fenced in garden complete with grass and concrete area, I am able to provide long walks in the local area. I would ensure all animals were happy and entertained as well as ensuring correct walk and toilet timings.

About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals and genuinely love being around them. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish and chickens, so I’m confident looking after pets with very different personalities, routines and needs. I’m friendly, reliable and attentive, and I understand how important it is to know your pets are in safe, caring hands while you’re away. I’m happy with feeding, walks, playtime, companionship and keeping to their usual routines, while giving them plenty of fuss and attention along the way. 😊 I’m available every day and have plenty of flexibility as I work part-time from home. This means I can easily fit pet care around my daily routine, including regular walks, feeding, playtime and plenty of attention. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and can be flexible with timings to suit you and your pets. I understand how important it is to know your pets are in safe and caring hands. I’ll always follow their usual routine and your instructions carefully, whether I’m caring for them in their own home or mine. I’m attentive, reliable and will make sure they receive plenty of company, affection, exercise and care while you’re away.

About: I have looked after dogs and cats around the world for many different companies and families. From pit bulls to Shit-Zou’s I have a wealth of knowledge in caring for animals of all ages and temperaments. Currently working from home so I’d happy to help walk, sit or check in anytime. I can go for walks on my lunch break (very flexible), before, and after work. We have a fenced off garden so happy to let dogs use the bathroom out there in between walks. Please provide food, bedding and leads/collars for their stay.

About: I have over 30 years of experience owning and caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds, including Border Collies, Jack Russell Terriers, Bedlington Terriers, Labradors, and Cocker Spaniels. Throughout the years, I have developed a deep understanding of the unique personalities, traits, and needs of different dogs, adapting my care to help each one thrive. I have supported dogs through every stage of life, from puppyhood to adulthood and into their senior years, providing nurturing care, training, guidance, and companionship. I am passionate about building strong bonds with animals and helping them become happy, well-rounded, and confident companions. In addition to dogs, I have also owned and cared for several cats, which has further strengthened my knowledge and love of animal care. I am extremely passionate about animals and pride myself on providing a professional, reliable, and compassionate service. I dedicate my full attention, energy, and experience to every dog and cat I care for, treating them as if they were my own. Families can trust that their beloved pets will receive the highest level of care, attention, and affection while in my hands. I am self-employed and work flexible hours, which allows me to tailor my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care. This flexibility means I am available for daytime visits, evening care, weekends, holidays, and overnight stays. I can provide reliable and consistent care, ensuring dogs receive the attention, exercise, companionship, and routine they need while their owners are away. I am happy to care for pets in their own home through house sitting, helping them remain comfortable in familiar surroundings while giving owners peace of mind that both their pets and property are safe and secure. Alternatively, I can provide a warm, welcoming home environment with a secure garden, ideally located near the coast and the New Forest for enjoyable walks and outdoor adventures. As there are no other animals in my home, your pet will receive my full attention in a calm and stress-free setting.

About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up on a farm we always had dogs, and later I lived with flatmates’ dogs in London. More recently, our family beagle lived with my mum in the New Forest, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I genuinely miss having one around and would love the opportunity to care for yours. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit or overnight care, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, happy and well looked after. I’m reliable, patient and active, and I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine. I’ll always treat your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! I work from home most weekdays, giving me the flexibility to provide dog walking, drop-in visits and house sitting. One day a week I travel into London, but this varies, so please get in touch and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your needs. I’m also available most weekends and will do my best to be as flexible as possible. My approach to caring for pets in either my home or a pet owner's home is tailored to the specific service I offer. In my home, I provide a safe and secure space for them to rest and enjoy their stay. When caring for pets in a pet owner's home, I adapt to their routines and preferences, ensuring your pets receive consistent care, affection, and necessary attention. Open communication is key to allow me to address any specific needs and maintain a seamless experience with you and your pet/s.

“Hilary and John helped us, at very short notice with dog walking. We are very grateful. Our two dogs, one big and one small, were both delighted to see them, every time.”

About: I have been a teacher for 20 years and I have recently taken the decision to go part time to follow my dream of being a dog walker and care provider. I have had dogs my whole life. My favourite breed is dalmatian (I've owned 2!) but currently I have a happy sprocker spaniel. I am lucky to live near to both the coast and the forest and my favourite activity to spend my time doing is walking my dog - now I think it's time to add to the pack! I have a van which has been adapted to safely carry up to 6 dogs. For many years I have regularly cared for my friends' dogs, welcoming them into my home and my family. I am confident with all types of dogs, young and old, large and small. I pride myself on being able to provide both the love and care I would hope for my own dog if she needed to be away from home. During the school holidays I am available full time. In term time the only days I cannot offer are Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday as I will be teaching in school then. Your dog will be warmly welcomed into my home. I am happy to crate them if that is what they are used to but typically dogs have the run of the house. I have a fully enclosed back garden for them to play in but mostly they will be able to just relax at home in between lovely walks either in the forest or on the beach.

“Our dog Oaty had a wonderful time walking with Nicola. We received great communication before, during and after the walks, including lots of lovely photos. Oaty was taken out for longer than we’d booked (we were asked first) which she really loved and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Overall really fantastic and would absolutely recommend”

About: I have grown up around animals and have owned a variety. I’ve had the likes of dogs, hamsters and guinea pigs just to name a few. Most recently I have owned a pug and currently live with a golden retriever. I have a lot of knowledge about flat faced breeds and know how to best care for them. Equally I have a lot of knowledge around other breeds particularly smaller ones. I have looked after friends and my families dogs when they have gone away. I have the ability to go to their houses so that their dogs stay in their own environment that’s familiar. I have also had dogs come and stay with me too. I regularly look after my friends dog when she goes to work making sure that her dog is well looked after. I have a lot of free time at the moment being in between jobs so am very flexible with my availability. I will work around what’s best for you and your pet. I will care for your pet as if it was my own. At my house dogs are allowed on the furniture and on the beds so they can have a proper cuddle. I have three beds in the house with room for their own bed if required. I have a fully enclosed garden with a 7ft fence. I also have an open field across the road and a woodlands the other side with running water. I will make sure to feed your dog as many times as needed throughout the time they are with me. There are two fresh water bowls throughout the house and one in the back garden as well so that there is always access to water. I usually keep my back door open throughout the summer time so that Olive (my friends dog) can go in and out when she pleases, as well as her swimming pool under the shade of a giant canopy. If you would like me to sit in your own home I will treat it with the upmost respect. I like to keep things clean and tidy and will leave your home as I came into it. Leave no trace.

About: Hi everyone! I’m Anya and I absolutely love animals. I have experience as a Military Working Dog handler which means I’ve worked with lots of different breeds, temperaments and needs.

I adore spending time with animals whether it’s walks, playtime or cuddles and I always make sure every pet feels safe, happy and loved. I treat them like my own and love getting to know all their little quirks and personalities. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I love staying active and spending time outdoors. Walks and playtime slot in easily around my schedule and I always make sure to plan my day so pets get the attention, exercise and companionship they need.

I make pets feel safe and comfortable by following their usual routines and paying close attention to their needs. In a pet owner’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and secure. I provide a calm, pet friendly environment with plenty of enrichment and supervision. My priority is always their safety, wellbeing and making sure owners feel reassured while they’re away.

About: I’ve had and taken care of numerous dogs since my early years. From Jack Russells to my own anxious bully breed. I understand how daunting it can be to leave your pet with anyone but yourself, but rest assured I will treat them with the upmost care and attention as if they were my own. I’m currently exploring a new career path so my days are flexible to meet any requirement. Be it popping in regularly or extended walks. I’m happy to follow any and all requirement that you have when caring for your beloved pet - I understand that our animals often have weird and wonderful needs

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life—growing up, there were always dogs and cats in the house, so caring for them quickly became second nature. That early experience gave me natural confidence and affection with pets. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and temperaments, including senior dogs who need a little extra tender loving care and puppies who are still learning the basics. I really take the time to get to know each animal’s personality and what makes them feel safe and happy. I treat every pet like family, because I know just how much they mean to you. I'm currently available most days. I am not working so I am very flexible. I can be available to care for your pet anytime from morning to night. My home is a safe, pet-friendly space where your furry friend can feel right at home. My garden is fully fenced off and the inside of my home is cozy, clean and free of any potential hazards. Whether your let loves lounging in the sun or playing around in the garden, they'll have a safe and relaxing environment to enjoy.

About: I'm a passionate animal lover who enjoys spending time outdoors and exploring nature. Growing up with animals, I've always had a deep connection and a natural ability to care for them. Whether it's a daily walk, playtime, or just providing companionship, I'm here to ensure your furry friend is happy and healthy. I can provide quality care that includes daily walks, playtime, grooming, and lots of cuddles. With my flexible schedule, I'm available to accommodate your pet's needs and ensure they receive the love and attention they deserve. My home is surrounded by beautiful gardens and a nearby forest, offering ample opportunities for outdoor exploration and exercise. Your dog willl enjoy the freedom to roam and play in a natural setting. I'm dedicated to providing personalized care that meets your pet's unique needs, including daily walks, playtime, grooming, and lots of love and attention. Also, if your dog gets well with cats, it can be a very good opportunity to make friends with mine and keep company together.

“John is fantastic with our very energetic, boisterous lab. Maple clearly loves the walks and is very excited when John arrives. He takes her such varied, long walks and we are very grateful-will definitely be booking again.”

About: I'm Naomi, your pet's new best friend, here to provide a loving and fun environment for your furry companions. I'm not only a passionate dog lover with years of experience caring for various breeds and needs, but I'm also the proud owner of a trained assistance dog. Together, we'll make sure your pet feels right at home! My home is a calm and loving space where your pet can relax and enjoy plenty of cuddles. I have experience and skills in training, socialisation, and specialised support for dogs of all ages and abilities – from lively pups to wise seniors and even those with unique needs like blindness. Your pet will be in the best of hands, as I'm well-versed in medication administration and regular grooming, and have even helped my own dog achieve the Kennel Club Good Citizen Bronze Award! I'm the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends, and I can't wait to share my love and expertise with your cherished companion. When your furry friend stays with me, they'll not only receive top-notch care but also have a blast exploring, playing, and making new memories in a nurturing environment. So, let's get to know each other and give your pet the holiday they deserve with their new best friend! Pet care fits really naturally into my life, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. I work in Fareham during the day and usually finish at 4pm, but I can pop in for visits around Fareham during my lunch break, as well as before or after work. I’m also available most evenings and weekends, and I occasionally work from home. On Fridays I finish at 12pm, so I have even more flexibility then. I’m a big fan of getting outside and especially love being at the beach, so if your dog enjoys a good walk, a bit of exploring or a trip somewhere new, even better! I’m also happy to care for dogs who are comfortable being left for a few hours while I’m at work, as long as that fits their usual routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are really important to me. I know how difficult it can be leaving your dog with someone new, so I want them to feel safe, settled and comfortable in my care. I’m a dog owner myself, so I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine and little quirks. I’ll take the time to get to know your pet and follow the routines and instructions you leave for me, whether that’s feeding, walks, medication, playtime or simply giving them some company. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll always treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I’m happy to send updates and photos while you’re away, too, so you know how your pet is getting on. Most importantly, I want them to have a calm, positive experience and for you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re being looked after.
