Dog Walking in Mole Valley

About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends and family for over 5 years looking after: cats, dogs, gerbils, hamsters and rabbits. I have the most experience with cats but love all animals. Having volunteered in a cats protection cattery for over a year I am good at working with shy and lively pets. I spent lots of my childhood walking dogs for elderly relatives and love spending time with dogs. I’m currently working part time so have lots of time to spend with your pet(s). All times on weekdays and mornings on the weekend I’m free to prioritise animals :) I can come feed your pets and keep them company with cuddles or playing if they like. I can also take dogs for walks, long or short depending on what they are used to.

“Great reliable dog walker Thankyou very communicative also”

“Eloise and her family took great care of Angel. I was very impressed when she was willing to walk Angel a little later so it wouldn’t be too hot. Very thoughtful.”

About: I've always had dogs growing up and now luckily have the space in my home and garden to have dogs to keep me company as I work from home full time. I love long walks and often on the common so would be great to have dogs to join me! I encourage good behaviour, crate training when needed and most of all a lot of fun throwing a ball! I'll love and care for your dogs whilst their with me and very happy to send updates and photos whilst they're in my care. I'd really love our own dog one day, but for now I'm more than happy taking care of yours when you need an extra hand and a loving home for them to be safe and have fun in. I have 3 young kids who also adore dogs so the dogs would need to be able to be around them/not feel threatened by them. I'm fully insured with public liability insurance. I work from home full time, live next to the gorgeous woods of Bookham common and Norbury Park and have a large well fenced garden. I can do day time or overnight care Very well fenced and safe garden, no poisonous plants that could harm a dog or child. I have a large open plan living/kitchen with plenty of space for crates/dog beds etc.

“Our dog had never really been out with a non family member before but she absolutely loves going for a weekly walk and being looked after by Elena. Elena was very professional and proactive about asking all the right questions in order to get to know our dog and I feel totally confident leaving our very treasured pooch with her. Would highly recommend!”

About: I'm flexible to your needs so just ask any questions. I will take your pet out every 2 hours into the garden and will walk them for either 1 long walk or 3 shorter ones. I let pets feel like they have a second home here so very relaxed about them being with me on the sofa or in their bed - whichever they prefer. I look after dogs regularly (shown in the pictures). I have grown up with 5 family staffys, 3 cats, a hamster and a gerbil so can say I have varied pet experiences. I have a large secure garden and many local parks so happy to help in any way I can as well as sit in your own home if needed. Overnight vists are also welcomed. I will be home based for the foreseeable future and have 2 children of 4 and 6 years. Any questions please feel free to ask, reviews are always welcomed. I adjust my routine to suit the pets, I’m a PA by trade so being flexible is my nature. I usually do toilet, food, cuddles, toilet, nap, walk, cuddles, food, toilet as a basic rule I keep to your routine, have pets on leads with me in the garden until they are used to my environment and go for regular walks. They are treated as part of our family. I can also administer drugs if needed. Thanks, Niki x

About: I am a true dog lover and have experience with all breeds, ages, and sizes. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have worked as a pet sitter for several years. I work remote from home in the Bookham area and have a flexible work schedule that allows me to make time for dog walking and drop-ins throughout the day. A note on availability: - I am currently not available for boarding or doggy daycare in my home – I am available for extended daycare in your home, however I am not currently doing overnight stays. If you are interested in rates for an extended daytime visit in your home, please message me for prices Within the owner's home, I am happy to meet any requirements needed for your furry friends, including walking/feeding or just hanging out with your pet if they're alone for an extended amount of time.

About: We’re a family of four with twin 6 year old girls who absolutely adore spending time with dogs. Caring for animals has always been a big part of our lives. Personally, I’ve grown up around dogs and have a deep love and respect for them. We had a King Charles Spaniel named Finlay during my childhood, and we all absolutely adored him. These days, we regularly look after my mum’s dog, Lulu (pictured), and my brother’s dog, Kipling (also pictured). They’re both a joy to care for, and it’s become something of a family tradition to help out whenever we’re needed. The girls love getting involved too, and they’ve developed such a gentle and caring way with animals. We’d love the opportunity to care for your dog as if they were part of our own family! Pet care blends seamlessly into our routine, especially with the flexibility of working from home most of the week. It's ideal for taking the dogs out for walks and letting them into the garden. Plus, it offers great opportunities for our kids to learn and grow! We have a spacious home where your furry friend can freely explore, along with a large fenced garden for them to stretch their legs and enjoy the outdoors.

About: I grew up with a dog who I trained through puppy training classes and two cats who I adored. Since moving away from home, I have looked after many gorgeous dogs in my own home or in the owners where I have always received glowing feedback. I can share you daily updates to reassure you that your four-legged friend is being well looked after. I also used to work with Lily's Kitchen so have a good understanding of the food and care that dogs need and will ensure your dog comes back to you fit, happy and healthy. I currently work from home 3 days a week so I am around from Friday - Tuesday uninterrupted where your dog will be at my side 24/7. I love running and walking before, at lunch and after work as well as on the weekends where I enjoy having some four-legged company. I have access to the countryside just a short 5 minutes walk from my front door so your pup is guaranteed to explore loads of different areas whilst they're with me. I have a small flat which is why I only look after smaller dogs. It is neat and tidy so I welcome clean, well-behaved dogs with open arms and even let them sneak onto my bed to sleep at night time as I know they can feel worried being away from home. I take them out for regular wee breaks, along with a short walk before work and a long walk after. On the weekends, we will spend plenty of time outside on long walks and I often like to arrange seeing friends who have dogs so they can play together in a safe environment.

“Ariana’s first time meeting with our dogs could not have gone better. She is very experienced in dealing with anxious big dogs and I felt completely at ease with her walking mine. She is a lovely, interesting person and I look forward to her looking after our dogs in the future”

About: I started out by walking dogs for my neighbours after school, about 22 years ago. I was paid £1 per week, which increased to £2 eventually! For the last 10 years, I have been providing reliable pet care for dogs and cats of different sizes and breeds. My priority is not only in guaranteeing the necessary nurturing for a pet but also building a strong emotional bond with them and ensuring safety. I have been a cat owner for most of my life. My animals are so loved and cared for, and yours will be too. I believe quality pet care is a combination of comprehensive essential care, safe environment and building a strong emotional bond, where pets feel loved and secure. I am available to house sitting, walks and visits. I can take lots of walks in the day with your dog, play games, work on commands, stick to schedules if needed. I can be available 7 days a week and can work remotely most of the time. I also manage my own work diary so I can be flexible around your dogs schedule and needs. I may need to run our for work errands, but most of the time, pets under my nurturing are never left alone for long. While sitting your pet in your home, instructions will always be kept to. Just as much respect will be given to your home as your pet. Security of your home will be maintained. Your pet's needs will always come first.

“Sophie has been an absolute godsend. Luca has clearly had a great time on his walks with her. He gets really excited when she arrives and is happily tired when he gets home. She has been very good at communicating and adjusting times if needed. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.”

“We are very happy with Nicholas service. He popped over to meet our Labrador before we engaged him for the dog walking as well as sitting service. Our dog liked him so much that the first time they met he followed Nicholas out! He’s very reliable and sent us photo updates during the day. What’s more, he’s genuinely a very kind young man. I trusted him with our keys but ended up locking myself out by accident. He kindly offered to drop the keys back to our house after he finished a long day! Would definitely recommend him to anyone who’s looking for a reliable and trustworthy dog walker / sitter.”

About: Dogs have been part of my life since day one, and I truly can’t imagine life without them. Whether your dog is full of energy or prefers a slower pace, I’ll tailor my care to suit their needs – from active walks to running if they’re up for it. I work flexible hours, which means I can adapt to your schedule. Mornings and early afternoons work best, though evenings are also possible with a bit of notice. I would prefer to discuss this with you. Clarify your requirements and decide whether I can assist. Pets are not the same and their requirement may vary. I will guarantee affection and hugs regardless of the pet. 🐾

About: I have had animals my whole life through owning cats, dogs, and hamsters. I’ve grown up with big dogs so I will not be daunted by any size. I have looked after puppies training to be guide dogs and attended dog agility sessions before. I also have worked in care homes and with children so I can handle pretty much anything. I have experience cat sitting for my neighbours when I was in college. I also currently have a dog and hamster at home and live with friends who own a cat. I’m currently a full-time student and athlete however, I have days off Thursday-Sunday which gives me plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I will probably spoil them a bit too much with attention but having a furry friend is such a good stress reliever which I need as I finish my final year at University. I also play rugby competitively so I am very active and don’t mind walking in the rain or dealing with mud!! I am more than confident handling animals of all sizes and can read signs of sensitivity or unease. If your dog is food motivated then I’ll always have treats on hand to keep them safe and close and maybe teach them a few tricks if you’d like. My current dog is scared of cellotape so I understand pets can have peculiar quirks which need extra attention and caution. Regarding walks, I know how scary it is to see a stranger’s dog off the lead so I always shout ahead to check if their dog is friendly before releasing mine from command. I also am aware of specific house rules involving crate training, off the sofa, garden areas off limits etc and I will work hard to keep the cheeky pets in line.

About: Dog walker/ enthusiast since I can remember, experience with looking after dogs with special requirements (epilepsy, senior dogs etc). Treating your pets like family ! I'm currently working part time, and studying alongside. Still have a lot of free time for pet sitting/ walking. My weekly routine varies although I'm flexible and can work around both your/ my schedule. I have a large fenced secure garden, I'm happy for the dogs to sit on furniture & roam free throughout the house. Happy to go on long walks along the beach, or quick regular walks - whatever you prefer.
