Dog Walking Melton

About: I've grown up around dogs and love them so much. I have a crazy staffy who is my world! I have helped care for our older family dogs who need a little extra tlc, as well as administering medication to my own dog daily. I will love your dog like my own. I currently work from home with some extra spare time that I would love to dedicate to caring for your pets! Given enough notice I can be fairly flexible. I am very respectful of any rules and know how important it is to follow instructions when it comes to the care of your beloved dog. Animals genuinely make me so happy and I know how hard it is to find someone to trust to look after your pet.

About: Hi there! I’m Phoebe, a qualified veterinary nurse of 5 years. I have worked within the veterinary industry for 8 years. As a vet nurse specialising in emergency and critical care, I am dedicated to catering to pets with extra or special needs. I understand the unique conditions and requirements that some pets may have, and I strive to provide the highest level of care to meet those needs. I’ve also had the pleasure of working with the Greyhound Trust, where I learned the importance of compassion and dedication in animal care. Additionally, my time at a boarding kennel has given me hands-on experience with a variety of pets, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. I’m passionate about providing the best care for your furry friends and look forward to meeting them! My current schedule is 7 days on and 7 days off. So having every other week off means I spend a lot of time at home! During my 7 days on I work from 15:30 - 00:00. I can care for pets during my week when I am working too if this suits your pet’s needs. I have a 3 bedroom property with a garden that has a large fence around it. I myself have two friendly dogs. Introductions will be made to ensure compatibility with pets. While I am happy to accept raw-fed dogs, I am unable to feed them raw food during their stay with me for the safety and comfort of all pets in my care. I kindly request that raw food not be brought into my home. However, I am happy to cater to raw-fed pets in their own home to ensure their needs are met while under my care.

“Liga is a FABULOUS dog walker. My two boys, Sullivan and Bentley, had the best time on their daily walks including lots of swimming. The daily updates including photos and videos were great to receive. 5 stars 🤩.”

About: Growing up woth working dogs has led to me being experienced in all manners of high energy dogs. I myself grew up with a pointer and a Spaniel, both of whom needed hour long walks and lots if enrichment, which are both things that I'd be happy to offer potential customers. I love all dogs and aren't as weak as I look so don't be afraid to enquire if you have a large breed! I also live with a cat who is kept enriched and loved, so would be very happy to offer walks for cats as well as dogs. I work full time as a dog welfare assistant at dogs trust but will be available most evenings and all day Saturday and Sundays. I'm also happy to house sit during my work week for dogs or cats that are able to be left for a few hours. I will care for every pet left in my care as if it's my own, but will of course refer to any and all instruction given by the owner.

“Adam was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. I got very lucky as my usual dog care fell through so it was quite last minute. Adam was super punctual and my dogs immediately loved him from the meet and greet. The numerous updates, photos and videos were greatly appreciated, especially as I’ve never used Rover before so was a bit nervous! Would recommend to anyone- 10/10 for service, communication, friendliness and my dogs’ happiness!”

About: I’m 29, have had 2 beagle boys of my own for the past 6 years so I‘m used to mischievous, energetic dogs who love to cuddle. (I also use Rover as a customer, would love to find someone where we can regularly help with each other’s dogs!) I work from home full time and can pop in on your dog as needed. Happy to walk, feed, provide cuddles, play time or just toilet trips. I only walk dogs from one household at a time, maximum of two dogs per household. Happy to follow any instructions for your dog and will treat your home with complete respect, privacy and safety. Let me know if you have any particular rules or boundaries.

About: Hi, my name is Sim, I'm 25 years old, I work full time but on shifts so I have a range of availability based upon my shift patterns. I've got experience in sitting and walking different breeds, and I'm a big breed lover having my own 3 at home! (3 German shepherds!) Currently I do occasionally dog sit for friends and family, typically their dogs stay over with my 3 dogs who love having friends over! So what sets me apart from other walkers and sitters? Well, I love dogs, I've had 5 years of experience (on and off), all my dogs have been adopted and rehomed - so I've worked with a variety of different dogs with different needs. Recently fostering a dog for 3 months and got her trained up before she went to her new home which she's succeeding in! I own a car so I'm happy to travel. And with your permission if you leave your dog with me over night or for a few days, I can take them to locations such as the Peak District to get some quality time in, otherwise to the local parks and nature reserves. 😁 I do have a really big garden which is fenced off. If we require use of a create then we can encourage that with your dog, we just request to provide a bed or item that your dog is currently familiar with to keep in the crate if crate time is required, we want to keep the environment as familiar as possible to help reduce anxiety. My house has multiple cameras situated throughout the property, inside and outside for peace of mind. I work full time but I work different shifts weekly but I know what I'm working well in advance, and I have my partner to lend a hand. Large garden fenced off, cameras around the house and the outside the house so we have eyes on the property at all times. But someone will always be home.

About: I am currently studying veterinary, so have undertaken many hours of work experience where I have looked after many dogs in a professional environment. I also have a dog with anxiety so understand the needs of this. During the week I can provide services such as dog walking and drop in sessions. Over weekends I have no other commitments such as a job so can provide many walks and sufficient care for your pet(s). I am flexible to how the dog is behaved as I understand some dogs have different needs to others- I am confident to crate a dog and walk dogs on a leash.

About: Hi, I'm an experienced pet sitter who has themselves had many cats over the years and up until a couple of years a go a lovely Labradoodle. I also spent a year working as an animal care volunteer in Derby for the RSPCA. I currently have 3 cats and often look after cat friendly dogs in my own home. I have over 5 year's of cat and dog sitting / care experience and will provide your pets with fuss on their terms, feed to your instrunctions as will administer any medication. I am happy to do walks, litter tray cleans and changers, provide play, open and close curtains and I will send daily photo and video updates so that you can see how well your pets are doing. As someone who has had cats for over 40 years as well as my own dog, I know them well and love spending time with them, regardless of their age Or needs. I am a bubbly, friendly person who will always give your pets my full attention and whilst you're away I treat them like they are my own. I'll even deal with any new friends that they might bring home. I am very experienced and with cats and have enough experience with dog's to provide your pets with a caring and safe environment when you're away. If you want someone who will give them all the love and care they need whilst you're away or out for the day then I would be more than happy to help. I cover the Cropwells and as far out as Bottesford and the surrounding area. Pet care is my full time job and I’m available 7 days. However as a single parent I won’t be available for late evening calls. I treat all animals like my own. They will always be given as much or as little fuss and love as they or you want.

I worked for over 10 years for Mars Petcare so have a strong connection to dogs and the care they need. I have looked after family and friends dogs. I live in the Leicestershire countryside in a beautiful barn conversion. I work from home so get out and about. Your dog will enjoy 1-1 care if they come to stay and be loved, cared for and nurtured as if they were my own. For dog walking I will visit the following villages for walking Barrow Upon Soar, Seagrave, Wymeswold, Old Dalby, Grimston, Ragdale, Sileby, Burton on the Wolds, Thrussington and Rearsby I currently work part time from home and have a flexible schedule. I go out and about frequently. You dog will have attention and care throughout the day I care for dogs in a calm, home-from-home environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. In my spacious countryside barn conversion, dogs have room to explore, rest, and enjoy a peaceful routine with plenty of attention. I stick closely to their usual feeding, walking, and sleeping habits to help them settle in comfortably. For dog walking, I offer gentle, unrushed walks near the dog’s home or in the countryside—always putting their safety and happiness first. I only walk dogs in small groups (or solo if preferred) to ensure individual attention and calm companionship. With a nurturing, family-style approach and over 10 years of pet care experience, your dog is treated like part of the family—because they are.

About: Have been around dogs all my life, have recently helped my sister look after a few lovely pooches from this app, it was well fun! Currently taking some time out of work, meaning I’m available 24/7. Looking for some furry companions to help me get back out into nature. When visiting the owners home I would take notes on whatever specific details about the pet I need to note down, making sure to note the areas the dog is allowed within the house as well as the obvious toilet and food requirements.

About: During lockdown, I walked my neighbour's dog, a massive Bernese mountain dog, a few times per week. It was the best part of my week and I really enjoyed it. I then worked at an animal sanctuary for months, home to seven dogs ranging from Spanish mastiff to Australian shepherd. I walked these dogs weekly for about 5 months. Since I left home to study at university, I have missed that companionship and would like to spend my free time with four-legged friends! I study veterinary medicine and have the opportunity to arrange some parts of my schedule according to my availability. This means I can be somewhat flexible around my working hours to accommodate your pet's needs. I can take your dog on various walks around the neighbourhood. I provide provide drop-in visits, house-sitting as well as dog walking and will do my best to provide a safe and enjoyable environment for your pet.

About: I recently obtained my Level 2 certificate in animal welfare which allows me to provide an extra level of care to your dog. My understanding of their needs is much greater since accomplishing this also due to the work experience in a busy dog day care, I was quickly brought up to speed managing up to 20 dogs! I have always been passionate about dogs ever since I became a young dog mum, I took my boarder collie dog training when I was 13 and created a fabulous bond which will last a million lifetimes! She lived well into her senior age of 18 where I met all her senior needs 🥰 Unfortunately last year she passed but I loved every minute of being a dog mum so now I'm using my passions to provide a safe and loving environment for other dogs to enjoy as a fun doggy holiday. I am always walking and hiking, I am also a self employed hair dresser which means I am often at home or not far from it. I have a huge secure garden, which is often referred to as a doggy's paradise! I live in a detached barn conversion with a 360 garden. I have an open plan house, with hard floors perfect for dogs. I live 2 minutes from a park and not far from Leicester centre.

About: I’ve had dogs since the age of 2. I’ve dog sat for my friends, auntie, and new clients through Rover. Including, walking, feeding, grooming/bathing, playing, etc. I’m a loving dog mum who’s done tonnes of researching on various breed fulfilment. I enjoy researching about the needs of various breeds and will cater to your doggo. I’ve done various dogs trust training classes with my pups as well as working with a private award winning dog trainer. I love to meet up prior to providing services to get to know both owner and dogs, this way I create a great relationship and learn more about your pet directly… especially if they are quirky like mine! 😁 Currently my schedule is wide open. I’m undergoing an online course that can be completed in my own time. On the weekend, generally I wake up early, play some games with my dogs, they nap, then we go for a walk, I feed them and then do some training, and finally bedtime. I love to take them hiking or swimming or to a private dog park to do some agility too. I have plenty of spare crates and a fenced off garden that the dogs can run around and play in. If our dogs don’t get along which can sometimes happen, I have a separate household that can take care of mine whilst I take care of your dog(s). Although this is dependent on the timescale, I’m willing to compromise. I have plenty of enrichment games such as snuffle mats, food dispenser games, dog treat puzzles and various toys. So your dog will not be bored!

About: Have had cats growing up and was absolutely obsessed with them. More recently I have looked after a handful of my friends and families dogs which has been amazing! I also worked in a dog friendly pub, and just become obsessed with all the furry friends- even introduced the dog of the month competition! I always seemed to remember the dogs but not the humans, whoops! I’m currently changing my career to have a life I love. Cats and cute dogs have to be involved! I now work as a Pilates instructor and seem to be free during the day- a time when doggos or kitty kats need that little bit of attention and love. Please note I am NOT available: Monday & Tuesday evenings 4pm onwards. Friday mornings. Available after 12:00 Saturday and Sunday mornings. Available after 12:00 Please feel free to message me to discuss timings. I live in a terrace house with a garden. The front of my house looks onto a big green, which tends to be the neighbours dog walking spot! I can’t wait to join them!
