Dog Walking in Rochdale

About: As a proud owner of two dogs, I know that your pets aren't just animals—they’re family. I’ve spent years providing a 'home away from home' for the pets of friends and family, ensuring they stay happy, relaxed, and loved while their humans are away. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a senior cat who just wants a quiet lap, I’m comfortable with a wide range of breeds and temperaments. My daily routine already revolves around long walks and playtime with my own two dogs, so you can rest easy knowing your pet will get the exercise and attention they deserve. I can't wait to meet your furry best friend! I currently part-time working around 20-30 hours spread out across the week. I always have lots of free time where I can love your animals, make sure they are relaxed, fed and happy. I will ensure your animals are fed around their schedule, taken on walks suited for their needs, let out regularly for a bathroom break and well loved for the entire stay. As a dog lover myself, they will receive lots of attention and cuddles if they want them. I can adjust to a dogs different needs as I know all dogs are different and they will be receiving the requirements they want and need.

About: I have a Maltipoo puppy called Ralph, who I have raised since he was 8 weeks old. Caring for Ralph has given me valuable experience with feeding, walking, training, socialisation, maintaining routines and understanding a dog’s individual needs. I know how important consistency, patience and positive reinforcement are in helping dogs feel happy and secure. Before Ralph, I also cared for my family rescue dog for 8 years, giving me experience with dogs of different ages, personalities and backgrounds. Through both dogs, I have developed a strong understanding of responsible pet ownership and the importance of providing loving, attentive care. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I will always treat every dog as if they were my own. I am reliable, caring and attentive, and I am happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners can have complete peace of mind while they are away. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide reliable and attentive pet care throughout the day.

Regular updates and photos can also be provided for extra peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness will always be my priority. During walks, I will ensure dogs are kept secure on their lead unless instructed otherwise and it is safe to do so. I will always follow the owner’s instructions regarding routes, routines, feeding and any specific needs their pet may have. For drop-in visits, I will make sure your pet has fresh water, food if required, plenty of attention and playtime, and the opportunity to go outside where appropriate. I understand how important trust is when caring for someone else’s pet and home, and I will always treat both with respect and care. Regular updates and photos can be provided so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well looked after.

About: A loving family home with years of pet care experience, I have two lovely children who will make your pets feel at home. Also nice garden and plenty of walking routes nearby I can easily fit dog sitting into my routine because of my flexible work schedule and the fact that my partner works from home full-time. I work at the airport on a rotating 5 days on, 3 days off schedule, with shifts from either 4:30 am–1:30 pm or 12:30 pm–9:30 pm. This means I’m always home early in the day or have the whole morning free, giving me plenty of time to care for a dog. On top of that, my partner is always home during the day, so the dog would never be left unattended. Between my early finishes, days off, and our consistent presence at home, we can provide a reliable, structured, and loving environment for a dog. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and absolutely love being around them. Having a dog’s company in my home is something I truly enjoy, and I believe it’s a much more comfortable and reassuring option than kennels. My home has a large, secure back garden where dogs can happily roam in and out as they please, and I’m also perfectly placed for walks—living right across from a park and just five minutes from Heaton Park. With so much space and plenty of opportunity for exercise, dogs in my care are guaranteed both comfort and adventure.
