Dog Walking Oxford

“Jackie was amazing as we had to do a lot of coordination to walk Charles while I was visiting Oxford for a part. It all worked well and smoothly though Charles missed me ! It was great to get the walk and care from Jackie”

“Neele is an excellent and responsible dog walker for my enthusiastic border collie. Highly recommend her.”

Melanie W.

“Thank you! Yevhenii was able to accommodate a last minute dog sitting need. Professional, timely, kind, experienced, and an overall good guy. 10/10 recommend =]”

Antonia E.

“We asked Laura and Ali for an hour walk of our dog Bella. The communication was quick and great. They seemed to know dogs very well and Ali comfortably walked Bella. He was super nice to her but also stern when she would wander to eat too much grass or random stuff in the field. They seem friendly and professional. I will definitely use their service again in the future. I absolutely recommend them to others. Madhuri”

“Lucy is kind, patient, reliable and took the time to make our anxious dog Eddie feel comfortable before their walk (and sent us some lovely updates). Thank you Lucy!”

Emma D.

“Priscille has recently started to walk our sensible and nervous dog. She has listen patiently to our instructions and done a fantastic job adjusting to his special needs. Communication has been excellent, we have been kept informed how they were doing on their walks which provided a big peace of mind. I have always found a happy and relaxed dog after Priscille came around, makes me super happy and looking forward to their next walks!”

About: I love pets, mostly dogs as I have had dogs in my family. My dog is 18 years old!! She lives with my parents in Spain, and I really miss her... I have had then experience with my own dog and at different stages of her life. Also, my two aunts have dogs, and there are two dogs in my partner's family as well. I have also gone walking at least with four friends and their dogs. They are all different sizes, breeds, and ages, and I love every single one of them. They all had different personalities, and I was able to adapt by giving them more space, ensuring they were comfortable not facing other dogs, or being more affective when they requested it and playing and running with them.
 To be fair, creating this profile would not only help me finantially, but it would also give me love from your pet, which I miss having as I cannot have a pet of my own in my Oxford flat. Therefore, I would take care of your pet as if it was my own. I'm also experienced in not only playing, walking and feeding them, but also giving them medicine (e.g., my dog has epilepsy, so she takes medication three times per day). A few years ago, I also dog sitted a friend's dog, and I had to give him pills hidden in food as well. Moreover, my dog's paws were hurt and I had to treat them with chlorhexidine... and many more examples where she had the recovery collar or other small injuries. Lastly, as a peculiarity: I have been my own dog's hairdresser for her whole life! :) I'm also happy to look after cats, as I have lived in a houseshare where my housemate had a cat and I took care of her when the housemate went away some weekends. I'm a PhD student at Oxford University working on my thesis, without funding. Wondering whether I could get a part-time job, I decided to offer my help as dog or cat sitter. In regards schedule, I can adapt as I'm writing my thesis, but to make it easier for me to organise myself, I would prefer evenings from 5pm. I would be happy to talk about it if you and your pet need another organisation, as well as I'm happy to talk about changing prices if you want to book me for several days/weeks. I have a few days that I won't be available in Oxford during July (July 30th-August 4th) and August (August 16th or bank holiday weekend), but I can try and adapt the rest of the summer days. To be fair, creating this profile would not only help me finantially, but it would also give me love from your pet, which I miss having as I cannot have a pet of my own in my Oxford flat. Therefore, I would take care of your pet as if it was my own:) I cannot have pets in my flat, but I would be delighted to walk your pet (for different lengths, like 30min or an hour, or even 1.30h). In a typical visit or walk, I would ensure he/she runs as well during their walk (if age and heat allow it), plays with a toy (ball catching), and sniffes enough surroundings to cover her/his necessities. It all will depend on the dog's necessities, displayed by the owners. I am also happy to come to your house and play, clean or feed your dog or cat there! I know all dogs and cats need different things, so I'm very happy to adapt:)

About: If you asked 10-year old Jui who her best friend was, she'd tell you it was the group of Indian stray dogs she would feed and play with everyday! Since then, I've jumped at every opportunity to walk or look after dogs of all shapes and sizes for neighbours, family friends and relatives. My own family dog was a very spirited senior Shih Tzu (pictured above). Dogs always love me - although probably not as much as I love them! I currently work full-time Monday to Friday but I am free everyday after work or during lunchtime for walks. Weekends are also completely free for dogsitting or dogwalking! I will make sure your pet always has comfortable space to relax, regular toilet breaks, playtime, walks, fresh water, and lots of attention and affection! I always try my best to maintain their usual routine and give them as much companionship and care as possible. I keep the home tidy, provide updates and photos for peace of mind, and make sure pets are safe, happy, and well cared for at all times.

“We have had a fantastic experience with Anni. She was very clear and quick with communication and was able to flex to our plans. She sent loads of updates and I was very happy with the care she clearly gave Billy. I would not hesitate in recommending Anni.”

Kim R.

“Communication was amazing throughout and Loreta was very thoughtful about the hot conditions, amending what was possible given the heat. I would have no hesitation in recommending Loreta and hopefully Kenny will see her again soon!”

About: Hi! I’m Elizabeth, a recent Criminology graduate from Oxford Brookes University, and I’ll be starting a full-time role with Thames Valley Police in August. I have over 2 years of experience caring for dogs and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m available throughout the summer in Oxford and would be delighted to help care for your dog while you’re away, at work, or simply need an extra hand. I’m currently a Criminology student and Oxford Brooke’s. My timetable is very flexible. I also drive and can help out with any other errands. This can be spoken in person. It depends on what type of dogs and if the dog would stay at my house or the owners house.

About: I've got a 8-year old rescue cat and a 1.5-year old rescue dog. Both came traumatised and are quite anxious and shy and required a lot of patience to gain their trust. I will give your pets the level of care and respect I expect for mine. Shy pets particularly seem to like me but happy to cater to any temperament and any individual needs. I have been cat-sitting for 1.5 years now, with 50+ bookings, catering to social cats, shy cats and cats with medical needs. If you are new to Rover, use the code MELANJ68622 to get £15 off your first booking. I almost always work from home, and I do so flexibly, so I am very available to come and take care of your pet. I do not offer boarding for the wellbeing of my own two anxious pets. I will respect what your pet needs, whether that's lots of attention and play time or to be left alone. You'll get updates and pictures and I will follow any instructions, I'll even water the plants if you want me to :)

About: 🎁 New to Rover? You can use my promo code MELANC83945 to get £30 off your first booking with me. 🐾 Hello there! I’m Melanie - a young professional and Oxford graduate. I’ve always loved animals, and it would be my pleasure to care for your pets. As I occasionally work from home, I’m able to offer additional companionship and supervision on the days I’m at home. I also have a small fenced garden for quick outdoor needs and easy access to lovely walking routes including Angel & Greyhound Meadow, South Park and Headington Hill Park, which are all just around the corner. As I live with my partner, I’m best suited to dogs who are house-trained, settled overnight, and comfortable sleeping in their own bed or crate if needed. For everyone’s safety and wellbeing, I’m unfortunately not the right fit for dogs who show signs of aggression, have a history of biting, or have a tendency to escape or bolt. I’m also happy to adapt to pets with additional needs when discussed in advance. I have experience caring for senior dogs and supporting pets with needs such as administering medication, providing extra patience and reassurance, or adapting routines to suit their individual requirements. Depending on the level of care required, pricing may vary slightly to ensure your pet receives the attention and dedicated care they deserve. Your pets will be treated with genuine care, patience, and lots of affection — I look forward to meeting them! 🐾 I occasionaly work from home, which means I’m available to settle pets in comfortably on the days I work from home. I’m also typically home on weekends and enjoy going for walks, so your pet can benefit from both relaxed indoor time and outdoor exercise. 🐾 My home provides a safe and comfortable environment for your pet, with a securely fenced garden for quick outdoor needs and a spacious two-floor layout where they can roam and relax under supervision. I’m fortunate to live close to Angel & Greyhound Meadow, Headington Hill Park and South Park, offering lovely, open spaces for calm and enjoyable walks. Above all, I prioritise creating a trusting, loving atmosphere - with plenty of cuddles, affection, and attentive care - while ensuring your dog gets the exercise and companionship they need (and I happily welcome the extra fresh air while working from home!). 🐾

“Cora has been wonderful with our boisterous young German Shepherd. She is communicative, clearly loves animals, and makes his walks interesting and engaging. Highly recommend!”

Amy & Marcus D.

“It was such a relief to know I could totally rely on Alina to manage the dog walk while I was away for the day. Wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”

Louisa S.

“Alice went above and beyond for all of my dogs walks. Taking into consideration all her needs, and making sure she was comfortable and happy. I will 100% recommend her services and will be rebooking again soon.”

About: My husband Yevhenii and I have extensive experience in caring for cats and dogs (of any size). We often look after animals and have a client base, but we also have a lot of time to get to know new lovely pets. In our experience, we have looked after both one cat/dog and 7 dogs at the same time. Rest assured, we are not afraid of anything! We have lived in Oxford for 4years and have been sitting/feeding/playing/walking pets all this time. Please contact us - our love for beautiful creatures is very great and we will surround your pets with care. We are available almost all the time for you. Sometimes we do pets sitting separately with my husband Yechenii. His contact is added to my profile. We always vote to stay together with sleepovers/play with pets but we can do it separately. In the house where we live it is forbidden to have pets, so we can walk/look after/play with/feed pets only in your house, but with great love and care.

About: Coming from an agricultural background, I spent most of my life around animals big and small. I grew up with three cats Tigger, Corby, and Hoggie, and two big dogs Bailey and Bertie. I’m quite an active person - I row, cycle, run, amongst other sports so very happy & capable to handle any giddy or energetic pets. I have looked after, and dog walked in Dublin, Edinburgh, and New York. Currently doing a masters at Oxford, but have plenty of time during the week & weekends to walk or look after your pet(s). When in London, I live close to both Clapham Common and Battersea Park so plenty of space to walk/run around, but also a quiet residential neighbourhood. Fortunately between Oxford and London both properties benefit from back gardens with high fencing. I understand it can be a daunting experience for both pet and owner and therefore I prioritise good and effective communication, and happy to send regular updates.

“Nadia communicated well with us throughout. She was not phased by Koda’s rescue-dog anxieties and supported her well on her long daily walks. Koda was always happy to go with her - Thank you!”
