About: I've taken care of a variety of dogs, big & small and tend to each of their needs including: daily walks, feeding routines, training reinforcement and their individual personalities. Neighbours, friends and family have relied on me to look after and play with their pets for over 9years. I have my own Cocker Spaniel puppy so have experience looking after young dogs. I'm comfortable following owners instructions for their pets and want to make sure they are as happy as possible leaving their dogs with me. I'm currently working from home so I can be in the house at all times to play with and look after your pet! I'm available for boarding weekdays and weekends and can also go to your home during the day for check-ins and walks with your pet. I have a large fenced in garden for your pet to play in and a very friendly cocker spaniel to make friends with! My dog is crate trained so has his own bed area. I can easily set up a crate for your dog too if provided.
About: I have been looking after animals for most of my life, and would be happy to help with other peoples furry friends. I have a 3 legged cat and a young (ish) friendly dog. I like an active house, and am always happy to go out for extra walks, and will get out in any weather for some fresh air and a run around. I have experience with dogs of all ages and from small to large breed, and am confident and calm with nervous dogs or those who have come from rescue and need a little more special tlc. I can look after your loved furry friend Monday to Friday in the afternoons and evenings in term time with more flexibility in the school holidays. The family pets have the run of the house, and also have an outdoor run to go into when the weather is good. Our dog has a blast out in the woods in the morning before breakfast to work up an appetite and then a walk or run later in the day. We also have a large garden and attached woodland for exploring and to keep active brains busy
About: Although I have only had my own pet for a year, I have looked after multiple dogs of friends and relatives in my adult life. I have a working male cocker spaniel who I have trained from being a puppy so have had experience of all age ranges. I have looked after older dogs who only need light activity to younger high energy dogs. I will try to help out in any way I can whether it be a walk to over night stays. I work part time and can alter rota if needed to help scheduling. I can mostly do Friday, Saturday and Sunday so you can enjoy long weekends away. I can do the odd day during the week depending on schedules for dog sitting and walking during the day. I have a fenced garden and a one year old male cocker spaniel dog who LOVES other dogs. Both me and him will do the most to make your pets feel the most comfortable from walks to overnights stays.
“We have left our two dogs (a Puppy and an adult dog) with Smarika while sightseeing in London for Daycare on 2 days in a row. We met Smarika directly infront of HMS Belfast and infront of the Tower of London. Smarika took very well care of both, handled them professionally and was very receptive and caring regarding the needs of the dogs. While caring for the dogs, Smarika sent lots of pictures and information about the dogs wellbeing. Smarika is very trustworthy, polite and professional and satisfied our needs 100%. I would definitely recommend her to everyone who is looking for a loving care of their dog(s).”

About: With 21 years of hands-on pet care experience, I offer calm, home-style boarding and sitting. I’m experienced with energetic dogs, anxious pets and seniors, and I stick closely to your instructions and routine. Safety comes first: secure doors/gates, lead rules, and careful supervision. I can support basic training habits (sit, stay, lead manners) and I’m happy to send frequent updates so you feel confident while you’re away. I work remotely, so I’m at home most of the day and can give pets plenty of attention, comfort and supervision. This means I can stick closely to your pet’s routine for feeding, toilet breaks, play and rest. I’m flexible with drop-off and pick-up times (with notice), and I’m available for weekday and weekend bookings depending on dates. Because I work from home, pets are not left alone for long periods and are supervised throughout the day. I keep a calm, safe home environment and follow your instructions closely (feeding routine, walking preferences, medication, and house rules). I’m careful with doors and safety checks, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel reassured while you’re away.
About: Since childhood, I have always had a family dog, so being around and caring for dogs has been a big part of my life. I’ve been volunteering most weekends at Holly Hedge Dog Sanctuary, whenever my work schedule allows. During my time there, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of dogs, each with different personalities and needs. This experience has not only shown my love for animals but has also helped me develop a strong confidence in looking after dogs and understanding their behavior. It's something I really enjoy and feel passionate about. My work schedule changes each week, so feel free to send me a message! Your dog will always be my top priority, and I will make sure to find time to give them the attention they deserve. I’m currently living in military accommodation on Catterick Camp. While my living area isn’t very spacious, I can guarantee that your dog will receive plenty of attention and care. I’ll make sure to take them out for walks in a secure and safe environment where they can enjoy themselves. Your dog's well-being is important to me, and I want to ensure they have the exercise, love and attention they need.

“Had great communication Sophia and really took care of my dog 100% would recommend as you are very trustworthy and caring towards animals and will definitely use you again Thankyou”
About: I have had many pets over the years. From a donkey, goats, chickens and of course dogs! I stumbled across offering care for other people's dogs by accident really, but it works really well. I care for our extended family and friends dogs in my home while they go away on holiday. I lost my gorgeous dog four years ago and miss him terribly. I decided this would be a great way to enjoy having the company of a dog again. My dog was a whippet so I know what a good walk looks like! I am are registered on trusted house sitters and have five star reviews from all my sits. I have no dogs myself so your dog would be the only dog to be cared for whilst with me. You can go away knowing your dog would be having a lovely holiday with me while you are having your own holiday. They fit in as my pet for the duration of their stay. If I stayed in your home you could rest assured I know how to look after a home. I have been married for over 40 years. I have an acre garden so grass cutting does not faze me either.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-to-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Richmondshire. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighbourhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
