Dog Walking North Norfolk

About: I have grown up with pets from a very young age, coming from an animal loving family I have always been around and loved animals. My first pet was a hamster and I also had cats and dogs growing up. Currently I have a cat called Bagheera I got him when he was a kitten and he is turning 9 this year. He is an extremely nervous cat and having him has taught me a lot about the unique personalities of our pets and their needs. I have looked after neighbours and friends pets and I am always excited to spend time with them. I offer a variety of walk durations and can adapt to your dog's individual needs. I'm a great fit for dogs who enjoy exploring Cromer and the surrounding beaches and parks, or who prefer a more relaxed pace. As a pet owner I understand how much they mean to you, and I am dedicated to provide the care and attention they need and make their wellbeing and safety a priority. I work full time Monday to Friday, so I am mainly available at weekends and on bank holidays. My working hours are fairly flexible though, so I may also be able to help during the week if required — send me a message and we can discuss it. Whether looking after your pet at home or taking them out for a walk I will ensure that they are safe and be mindful of their individual needs. I will also ensure to maintain good communication of your pets behaviour and well-being. I am a very organised person and maintaining a clean and tidy environment comes naturally to me.

“Lisa did a great job taking care of our 6mo labradoodle puppy, from taking the time to really get to know her requirements during the initial meet and greet to keeping us up to date with her walks/visits with lovely photos and detailed notes. 5/5, would entrust pet with Lisa again.”

About: I've grown up around animals from lambs and chickens to dogs and cats. I've also done dog walking for friends and family. Cared for dogs in animal shelters and adoption fairs. I've learnt husbandry care through my current degree in animal science and am constantly in close contact helping dogs into their harnesses and finding treats they enjoy at work in a pet store. I currently work part time and attend uni on Mondays + Tuesdays. Therefore Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays I'm unavailable for the first half of the day but happy to care for your pets in the afternoons as well as mornings during the rest of the week. As my calander follows term times I will be much more available during school holidays. So please don't put of reaching out just to check as I personally know how stressful it can be finding someone during holidays to look after your pet. I want to make you as the owner feel confident and secure and so will require information no matter the service I'll be providing in order to make sure we're all comfortable. Any rules, health issues or precautions that I may need to know I'll ask for and follow securely as no owner wants to worry about their pet or the person looking after them. I'm also more than happy to take photos and update you whenever they're in my care.

“Thank you to Amy (and her kids) for walking our dog Paco while he stayed at my parents in Aylsham. He can be a handful sometimes and difficult with other dogs, but I felt he was in safe hands. Amy sent photos and maps of the routes they had walked. Thank you!”

About: I’m a gentle and loving character towards all dogs. I love going on walks and am happy to adjust this depending on the dogs needs. I am confident in providing medications if needed and can follow instructions well for any more complicated prescriptions. I currently work remotely from home, so will be around to keep your dog company throughout the day and to go on walks over lunch and at the end of the day! I am confident around dogs of all sizes and adept to their needs, recognising when they need to go outside and if they are not eating as expected.

“Dogs know a good person when they meet one. Boycie had first walk with Rebecca and he didn't want to leave her. She is professional and know’s what she is doing. Highly recommended and will most certainly use Rebecca in the future.”

About: Growing up with trained labradors has taught me lots about caring for dogs. As well behaved as they are, you will find them lounging on sofas and beds, living life comfortably. I know how to look after dogs of all ages. Currently, I work part-time as a lifeguard near where I live. I am able to walk dogs twice a day, feed whenever necessary and keep them company. My garden is large and fenced. Two friendly black labradors live inside and will welcome any other dog immediately. I have a crate too, if that is what you wish for!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was 11, and had cats around my whole life. I am an animal lover and I love meeting new cats and dogs. I work for an animal charity. 🐾 I work from home Monday - Thursday and have a flexible diary. I can offer dog walks, pet sitting at your house (no overnights sorry) and drop in visits to look after your pet and make sure they are comfortable, safe and happy whilst you’re away. My drop ins are 30 minutes. If you need a whole day but not overnight please pop me a message! Happy to offer house calls, walks and house sitting for both dogs and cats.

About: With 6 years of dedicated pet care experience, I bring a unique blend of compassion, expertise, and personalized attention to every furry friend I care for. Whether it's providing loving companionship for cats or engaging playtime for dogs, I tailor my services to ensure the happiness and well-being of your beloved pets. My commitment to their care and comfort sets me apart as a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter. My availability spans every day of the week, from 9 in the morning until 6 in the evening, but I'm also flexible to accommodate your pet's specific needs and your schedule. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I'm committed to providing the care and attention they require, whenever it's needed. When caring for pets in a pet owner's home, I prioritize their comfort and safety by following any specific instructions provided by the owner. I ensure a familiar environment by adhering to the pet's established routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, exercise routines, and any special needs or preferences. I maintain open communication with the owner, providing regular updates on their pet's well-being and activities to build trust and reassurance. I respect the home and belongings of the owner, keeping the environment clean and tidy throughout my stay. Additionally, I am vigilant about the pet's surroundings, identifying and mitigating any potential hazards to ensure a secure and hazard-free environment. By focusing on the pet owner's home, I aim to provide a seamless and stress-free experience for both the pet and the owner.

About: Fully Qualified in pet sitting and dog walking. Full DBS has been completed. I have had previous experience working in a Boarding Kennels. I have had several Dogs myself of many different breeds. I also used to train Greyhounds and Whippets within the Racing environment. I set up the business to continue my love of working with animals. But mainly to provide a service that allows Clients to ensure their pets are well looked after when other commitments call. I know how close to us our pets are so clear communication with my Clients on how their pet is doing would be key. I set up Bark 4 the Lead at the beginning of 2024. This is my full time Job so the pets that are boarded here have my full attention throughout the day and night. I offer dog walking which I complete in the morning for a couple of my Clients. I live in a very quiet area down a service track. The property is fenced in with no other pets in the household. I recommend clients to visit with their pets prior to booking so they feel comfortable and reassured.

About: I've grown up with dogs + fish. Now I've had 2 beautiful cats for the last 3 years. My partner, who will also help, has grown up with cats/dogs/chickens and more! Between the 2 of us we have 2 dogs and 3 cats currently. I work from home full time in the golden triangle so can easily pop out to check in on pups or kittens😺. My partner works from her salon Tuesday - Friday in fakenham so she can also provide services there if need be. We have a big car so taking big dogs out for a great walk is easy to do! My garden is fenced but only 3ft. Therefore they can use it for toilets etc with me supervising but I'd aim to take your dogs out for nice walks (if they are able to).

“I am very overprotective with my 2 pups and was very anxious to let someone else see to them. Trafford however was amazing! He took my girls out on 3 walks today, he let me know when he finished each walk and double checked with me about things that he didn’t want to assume was okay! Very polite and updated me on my girls throughout the day. Highly recommend and will be using again!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have personally owned four cocker spaniels, giving me hands-on experience with energetic, affectionate breeds. I’m confident with walking, feeding, bathing and providing lots of care and reassurance, and I always treat pets like family. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine alongside my uni studies. I’m organised, flexible, and able to plan my schedule around bookings. I’m available for regular drop-ins, walks, and sitting, and I always make sure pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and care while owners are away. I always prioritise safety, trust, and routine when caring for pets. I follow owners’ instructions closely, keep environments calm and secure, and ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for in their own home.

About: I grew up in a dog-loving home with an Irish Red Setter rescue and a Doberman we raised from a puppy, so I'm no stranger to big dogs with big personalities. Over the years, I've cared for pups of all sizes, breeds, and ages—from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled while you're away. A recent move means I am now taking on new clients in and around Norwich. Please see my reviews and reach out for a chat if I can help to care for your pup! I’m working from home, with plenty of gaps in between for toilet breaks and walks in the park - I like to get away from my desk when I can and would love for your dog to join me. I’ve been house sitting for a number of years, both through Rover (please check my reviews) and word of mouth from my existing clients. I will care for your home as if it is my own. I am happy to discuss carrying out tasks unrelated to your pup, too.

About: Hi, I’m Abigail! 🐾 After six years as a police officer, I decided to give up the uniform and follow my passion for dogs, the outdoors, and providing a safe, trustworthy service for pet owners. I provide a calm, secure, and welcoming home where your dog will feel completely at ease. Your dog/s will have constant care, attention, and plenty of affection throughout their stay. I’m home full-time, so your dog’s routine, safety, and happiness are always my priority. I have a large, fully secure garden with 7ft fencing and a locked gate, giving dogs plenty of space to play, explore, and enjoy themselves safely. I share my home with my friendly Irish Setter, Rory, who is gentle, playful, and great with other dogs. He loves company and helps create a relaxed, social environment for visiting dogs. I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages — from young puppies to senior dogs — and I’m confident supporting different needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter, slower pace, I will adapt to them. I come from a professional background where trust, responsibility, and safety were essential, and I bring that same level of care and attention into looking after every dog. 🐾 What you can expect: * A home-from-home environment * Dogs are never left alone * Secure garden for safe outdoor time * Walks tailored to your dog (on or off lead) * Regular updates, photos, and communication * Flexible and attentive care to suit your dog’s routine I’m very mindful that every dog is different, so I will always follow your instructions closely — from feeding and walking to sleep routines and preferences. I’m happy to care for dogs who may be a little anxious or need extra reassurance — just let me know what helps them feel comfortable. We look forward to welcoming your dog into our home and giving you complete peace of mind ✨ Our calendar is kept up to date daily, and we’re always quick to respond to messages. We’re home seven days a week, so your dog will never be left alone. 🏡 A safe, secure, and relaxed environment My home is spacious and set up to give dogs a calm, safe place to settle in and feel comfortable. The garden is fully secure with 7ft fencing and a locked gate, so dogs can enjoy outdoor time safely. I live on a quiet, secluded street away from main roads, creating a peaceful environment that’s ideal for dogs of all temperaments. The garden is a great size for all breeds, with plenty of room to play, explore, and enjoy a good run around. Large patio doors open directly onto the garden, allowing dogs to move freely between inside and outside when appropriate. They can also be closed to create a calm, cosy space for rest and nap times. Inside, the home is open-plan with plenty of room to relax, along with soft furnishings and lots of toys to keep dogs happy and entertained. For added safety, all human food is kept well out of reach, so you can feel confident your dog is in a secure and carefully managed environment.

“Hattie took the dogs for a lovely walk and fed them their lunch. She sent me cute photos and confirmed that they had both peed and pooped. The dogs were in fine fettle when I got home later. Thanks Hattie!”

About: **ALL SERVICES CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE - I WILL LOOK TO RESUME IN THE COMING MONTHS** Grown up with a variety of pets and have over 15 years experience with dogs, cats, horses, etc, studied equine management at Easton College and love all animals with a passion. I am active and love to get out in nature. I have no children and no pets currently due to long working hours mid week so generally only offer boarding weekends. I would love to meet furry friends and guarantee they will get plenty of cuddles and walks. We are a smoke free home and pets will be welcome on furniture & beds. I work long hours midweek so generally only offer boarding weekend. I do have some flexibility with working from home days so please pop me a message and I will help where I can. I can provide dog walking services locally any evening of the week. I have an enclosed garden your pets can roam freely in and they will be welcome in all areas/rooms of the house. I can accommodate more than one pet but will not accept multiple bookings from different households on the same date.

About: I have been looking after animals my whole life. I grew up surrounded by cats and dogs of different sizes and ages. I used to rescue stray animals so I have been in contact with lots of animals over the years. I currently have 3 dogs (2 large dogs and 1 small dog) and 3 cats which I love very much. I also have experience looking after birds (mainly chickens) and rabbits. An interesting fact about me: A few years ago, I got accepted into the VET school. But I dropped out shortly after to pursue another dream of mine. I started considering pet sitting during the pandemic. Because I now work 100% remotely, I felt I could do something else with my spare time. Since I love being around animals, I thought pet sitting might be something I could do as I have experience looking after animals, and I love spending time with them. I'm currently working from home, so I have the flexibility to organise my day the way I want. I have full flexibility over the weekend because I am off work, but I can manage pet sitting tasks during the week as well. I can only care for a pet at the owner's house. I would normally agree with the owner on a schedule. The last pet sittings I have done have been at the owner's house. They would usually let me know the dog's needs, how many times a day it needs feeding, walking etc. I was also able to provide medication. I was happy to look after the house, take out the bins and collect the post while the owners were gone. We also agreed I would update them with a daily picture of the dog and let them know how the day went. Owners have different requests so I always make sure I understand their needs before I get booked in and actually move into the house. So I try to adjust based on every pet sitting request I get.

About: I’ve looked after and owned my own dogs for the past 18 years, I train working dogs to a high standard and both my labs are super friendly and efficient working dogs, I have a retired police dog and I am part of a police puppy walking scheme where I train puppies until reach a suitable age to undergo full police training, I truly believe dogs are better than people, if you show them the right amount of love and affection in training there is nothing that can not be accomplished with them, there is no stronger bond that a dog and owner and I appreciate how much a dog can mean to a person so I will care for your dog as if was my own. I work shift patterns at present and if the shift is longer than 6 hours my dogs go and stay at my parents who own a large country house with big garden to play in I have a large garden which is fully fenced in with only one access point at the front the fence is over 6 foot in height and the front gates are chained shut to prevent any escape artists
