Dog Walking Princes Risborough

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have 12 years of experience caring for our family dog, Max, a Bichon Frise, as well as two cats. I’ve always loved spending time with animals and have really enjoyed the responsibility that comes with looking after them. My partner (Abz) and I are now living in Bucks and we’re keen to gain more experience caring for other people’s dogs before getting one of our own. We’re friendly, reliable and genuinely love being outdoors, so dog walking and sitting feels like the perfect way for us to spend our weekends while giving your dog plenty of care, attention and company! We have recently started looking after our family and friends pets and thought we could make it more official on here! I work as a Doctor so schedule can be variable in the week but weekends from Friday are available for dog walking and boarding. We spend most weekends outdoors walking/hiking so this will fit in easily with our normal schedule. We currently have no pets of our own but in a house with access to public green spaces. Dog can roam all 3 floors of the house and secure balcony.

About: I've been around dogs cars and small animals since I was young. I also take out my friends dogs for walks when needed as well as stay ir check in their house when they are away. I want to be able to do more dog walking and taking care of other animals as I enjoy being outdoors as well as taking care of others. I work flexible from home with a calm daily rhythm. I always go for long walks daily. I make sure that pets can get genuine quality time and attention from myself. I always make sure to get to understand what the pets routine is from the owner - feeding times, favourite walks, sleeping spots, toys like to play with. Consistency keeps the pet relaxed.

About: I've been lucky enough to have a life full of many special animals, both in my home and in my social circle, from childhood up until now. From energetic lurcher crosses to quiet black void cats, I've seen and cared for a wide range of animals and loved them all very much! I am experienced in looking after primarily dogs and cats, and my extensive experience with senior dogs and cats makes me a trusted individual to look after your furry family members. I understand how important it is to have someone to rely on when you are unable to take your animals with you, and respect all of the care instructions you wish me to follow. I am currently a freelancer, so I have a very flexible schedule and am happy to adjust to whatever hours you require from me. I am available weekdays and weekends, with a few existing commitments on weekday evenings that should not impact my availability. I am very respectful of your home and your pet's needs, and will treat your property as if it were my own, keeping it secure and safe for them when you are not there. My own home has a secure fenced garden should I need to bring them here.

About: We have grown up with dogs, and I even have our own cocker spaniel, Winnie, who is 1.5 years old, and she loves other dogs. I work from home Monday/Wednesday/Friday, and my husband works from home on Tuesday and Thursdays so we are pretty available. Happy to have dogs at the weekend too. We love dog walks, so your dog will come with us on our usual morning and evening walk, and we also like to do sniff work/training with Winnie My husband and I alternate days in the office, so someone is usually at home! We walk Winnie usually 40-50 minutes in the morning, and we walk her 20 mins in the evening - depending on what your dog can do, we can be flexible to longer or shorter. We had a good-sized wall garden in a semi-detached house, plenty of room for running around and training. We would treat your dog as we treat our own and can do some training if requested. Both sitting and boarding we would take the most amount of care and give your dog lots of cuddles

About: I have had dogs my whole life however since moving out with children my family is yet to have one our own. We’re a very outdoorsy family - we spend a majority of our days doing woodland walks and at the parks. I previously did rover back in 2020 and boarded dogs with many repeat owners. I have two young children who are both very comfortable around dogs, my parents live just around the corner with a large house and garden and a loving black Lab called Rio, who we walk and see regularly, so your dogs would never be short of things to do! I have experience working with large breed dogs and rescues - I previously owned a German shepherd & 2 rescues and have experience with reactive dogs having worked with them for 4+ years. Please feel free to message me with any questions that you may have and I’ll see what I can do to help. You’ll be able to rest assured your pets are receiving the best care here, lots of photos and videos will be sent and I’ll make sure to create that “home away from home” feeling! I’m a stay at home mum, available 24/7 - so I would be able to accommodate your dogs needs, whether that was plenty of walks and outdoor activities or shorter walks and more mental stimulation inside, whatever you felt your dog would cope with best we can accommodate. I currently live in a 2 bedroom flat but we often spend a majority of our days outside. If your dog was comfortable with other dogs we love to go around the corner to my parents house where they have a very large fully enclosed garden and a black Labrador called Rio who loves to play, we have doggy pools and lots of fun things to do in the garden there also. We also enjoy renting enclosed dog fields/woodlands for run arounds, exploring and fun in a safe environment 🐾.

“Rebecca was available at short notice to check in and walk our pup. Our dog loves her and Rebecca gives really detailed rover cards so we know our dogs been taken care of. Thanks Rebecca!! I'm sure we'll book you again soon!”

About: I’ve been a pet sitter & walker for the last 5 years, so I know how to care for pets of all sizes and needs! I’ll follow your lead in caring for your pet. However you approach and manage their quirks, I’ll be able to care for them in exactly the same way you usually do and what they are used to. I have a lot of extra love for all furry (and even the non furry ones) animals, and it brings me a lot of joy to spend quality time with them. I’m more than happy to just do one-off walks and check-ins, but over time I hope that I become a familiar friend to your pet and a reliable helper to you in caring for them :) I work remotely and have a flexible schedule so I can always move plans around to fit with what you need! Mon-Fri checks ins and walks work best, but with enough advance notice I can certainly help out on weekends. Of course, if anything last min crops up, I will do my best to help. I understand that sometimes life happens quicker than we can plan for it! Whenever I’m visiting I treat your pets and home with the utmost respect. You can be assured that your instructions will be followed and expect any unforeseen issues (pet messes, accidents or dangerous situations) will be handled with professionalism and care.

“Rhiannan took amazing care of our Goldendoodle whisky when we were in a pinch and needed some last minute help. She was very responsive and quick to book us in for a walk. Thank you!”

“Hannah was delightful to deal with! A lovely and very friendly person. Everything went very smoothly and my slightly nervous dog loved Hannah. Would 100% recommend and will be getting in contact with her again whenever I need walking or dog sitting.”

About: Will & Jodie are two dog lovers who have been around and looked after dogs since early childhood. We want to look after your dogs before we look to get our own fur baby! Will and Jodie alternate days working from home so we can dedicate plenty of time to play. We have a variety of walks local with access to many parks and walks by the river. We have a secure garden with space for pups to play. When the weather is nice we leave the back door open for them to enjoy the outside.

About: I have had dogs and cats of varying breeds all my life, both big and small, and just love being around them. We currently have a 2.5yr old mini dachshund called Otto and live near Princes Risborough. I understand the frustrations around having suitable dog care whilst having to be in the office. I am a full time dog walker, so am available for walks, day care and drop ins. If you’re in need of some care, I'd love to help out! I am experienced with both puppies and older dogs and am can be very flexible depending on your requirements. I do dog walking/day care full time, so can be very flexible according to your needs, whether that’s dog sitting, walking or drop in visits throughout the week and over some weekends. Unfortunately I cannot offer day care at my home, but am available for drop ins and care in the dogs own environment. I am always keen to ensure dogs feel happy and relaxed.

“Karen really helped me out at short notice when I couldn't walk my dog due to covid! She was very quick to reply and even gave me a discount code to reduce the costs. Rafi came back seeming very happy and was nice and tired (which is just what I'd hoped for!). Overall I would definitely recommend Karen's dog walking services!”

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats at home since I was a child! I love going on long walks and playing with my cats and dog! I also have grown up with reptiles and other exotic pets. I have vast experience in looking after lizards and snakes, cleaning out cages and feeding live bugs! I work full time Monday to Friday 9-5. I am an available evenings and weekends. I regularly work from home so I am also available for a select number of day time check ins. I also have an enhanced clear DBS. I am unable to accommodate to have pets in my home. However I am able to look after your pets in your own home, this ensures they are in a more comfortable and stable environment whilst away from their owners!

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs for the last 20 years (from puppy to OAP). We live on a farm with horses so have experience of animals big and small! I work from home and so am here full time. I will be able to care for your dog along with my own and tend to their needs throughout the day. As we live on a (horse) farm there is plenty of space for walks in our fields - so no need to encounter other dogs if that’s an issue. We have a safe and enclosed garden for potty breaks.

“Paul is a natural! Bean instantly took to Paul and loved his walk. Paul listened to all of our instructions and is a very experienced dog walker, with an instant connection to Bean, leaving us feeling very comfortable with Bean in his care.”

About: I am a reliable petsitter with many years of experience caring for a wide range of animals. Growing up with a farming background, I am very comfortable with any animal, large or small. I understand different animal personalities and their needs. I have happily taken responsibility for households with many pets and am able to make pets feel comfortable and safe with me. I have experience of caring for my own dogs and cats, and caring for larger dogs for family members. I'm very easy going when it comes to different pet and home requirements and can adapt to any and all environments needed. I'm currently working part time as a gardener and do a lot of traveling so am available for larger chunks of time in-between. If I your home I will ensure to always be alert to your pets safety and making sure they are in a safe space, making my best efforts to make your pet as comfortable as possible.
