Dog Walking in Saint Helens

“Sully loved his walk today. Emma was lovely and professional. Doing a meet and greet beforehand and sending lots of pictures and updates on the day. Give you a peace of mind whilst your pooch is with someone else. Will definitely use again :)”

“Fin and Hayley really hit it off, he had a daily walk for 3 weeks whilst his pawrents visited the other side of the world. His pawrents felt very assured of his safety and the reliability of Hayley. His Grand Pawparents felt confident that Hayley could be contacted, was responsive and would be flexible in walk times if needed. Fin will be spending more time with Hayley in the future, his pawrents are already looking for another holiday. 😁”

About: I lost my dog to old age in December 24, he was a 15 year old Patterdale that had been with me since May 2011. So I've cared for both young and elderly dogs. I also care for the dogs of family when they go away. I live alone and mostly work from home. I have a secure back garden and have a choice of parks nearby for walking. I can usually get out for walks in the morning, lunchtime and evening. I work from a desk in my dining room, that has access into my back yard. The back yard is secure with brick walls on all sides with a gate into an alley.

About: Loving and experienced dog sitter with a safe, fun home! I’ve cared for many friends' and family’s dogs while they’re away and have plenty of experience. While I don’t have a pup of my own right now, your furry friend will get plenty of love, attention, and playtime with my energetic 7-year-old. With a large, secure back garden, they’ll have space to run, play, and relax while you’re away I currently work part-time Monday to Wednesday, with Wednesday as my work-from-home day—perfect for caring for a pup with a lunchtime walk. I’m fully available on Thursdays and Fridays, giving your dog plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor fun! Your dog will feel right at home in my loving, family-friendly space! I have a large, fenced back garden for safe play, a playful 7-year-old ready for fun, and beautiful walking spots nearby. Your dog will get plenty of love, attention, and exercise while staying with us!

About: I have over 5 years of experience in both owning and walking/caring for dogs of all different sizes- in particular, extensive experience working with and walking sighthounds. I am fully insured, DBS checked and have recently completed a Level 2 Canine first aid course. I have also completed a Pet Sitting and Dog Walking diploma and have strong knowledge and practical experience of animals, that I in turn use to tailor individual care for each animal I get the pleasure of looking after. I currently work part-time with early finishes through the week and have both Fridays and Saturdays free to look after your fur babies. I am more than happy for you to enquire about any services not listed and I am flexible as to the care of your animals- I will try my best to fit you in as and when I can always. When visiting your pet in your home, I will always follow the rules and routines we have discussed prior to offer you peace of mind and keep your pet as relaxed and happy as possible whilst you are away. If we are on a particularly long walk or I am minding your dog for a day or more we may visit my home where I have my own dog, providing your dog gets along with others. I have a secure garden and pet care facilities.

About: Hi, I’m Michael! I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life, so I know exactly how much they mean to a family. To me, they aren’t just pets, they’re our best friends. I started Tail Waggin' Adventures because I wanted to give local dogs a chance to get out, explore, and have a bit of fun while their owners are busy. What our walks are like: I don’t believe a walk should just be a quick trip around the block. I like to make sure your dog actually has a great time. - If your dog loves a fast-paced hike, we’ll do that. If they’re older and just want to spend 30 minutes sniffing every single tree, that’s fine too! I follow their lead. - I’m always on the lookout for busy roads or other dogs to make sure everything stays stress-free. I’ll always stick to your specific rules and whatever temperament your dog has. - I want to be someone your dog is actually excited to see. I use lots of praise and treats (if allowed!) to make sure we become the best of friends. Check ins: If your pet prefers staying at home, I can pop in to help. I'll refresh their food and water, clean litter trays, and make sure they get some garden time and plenty of attention. I always keep a close eye on their behavior and appetite, and I’ll send you a quick update and some photos after every visit so you can relax. I’m fully insured and DBS checked, so you know your home and your pets are in safe hands. I always suggest a free meet and greet first to make sure I’m the right fit for your pet. Just send me a message and we’ll get it booked in! I work part time in my day job, which is quite flexible. This means I can usually shift things around to suit your schedule. While I'm wide open on weekends, I can often make mid-week or evening sessions work too. Every week can be a little different, so it’s always worth sending me a message, I’m happy to chat and see how I can fit into your pet's routine! I understand how important your home is, and I promise to treat it with the same care and respect I give to your pet. You'll always find your space left exactly as it was, providing you with complete peace of mind.

About: I have experience of caring for and loving numerous pets including hamsters, cats, dogs and even a tortoise. These have ranged from calm or nervous to energetic and boisterous I currently work shifts which means I am around for different times of the day which makes me a lot more flexible in taking care of pets. I also drive so transport is never an issue I’m tidy and courteous with no issues cleaning up any type of pet mess. I’m definitely not afraid of getting my hands dirty.

About: I've kept cats and dogs my entire life. Admittedly my canine experience is very slightly less than feline, so no giants please! Everything and anything else though, I will care for as lovingly and attentively as my own four fur babies. I can't wait to meet you and your furry friends! 😁 Currently fulfil a role within my home so am available 24/7. DO NOT HESITATE to contact me regarding availability or catchment area. I would love to hear from you and will respond immediately. It is worth being aware of the fact that we may need to discuss additional travel costs, IF you live outside the St Helens area. Travel can become expensive and time consuming very quickly, so I appreciate your understanding regarding this matter. Let's talk. :) I will NOT accept bookings with elderly (10 years plus) or severely infirmed animals. The stress is too great on the animals to be without thier human for long periods at those ages. I have 4 adult cats to keep your pet company. I have spent a lifetime caring for creatures of one sort or another, and plan to extend all that to your pets. They are our family, after all. Rest assured, I know exactly how important they are to you, as mine are to me. If I am likely to be caring for your animal in your home overnight, access to the internet would be greatly appreciated, if possible. If there are any musical instruments available in your home, I find that playing music for animals can be a really strong bonding tool. I can play anything with keys or strings. As well as a regular grooming routine; Morning and evening brushing for no less than 30 mins per animal, per session. My prices are slightly higher because I offer the highest quality of care available for your animals, anywhere. Bar none. Please check my reviews.

About: I have had animals, dogs and cats all my life. Currently I’m a dog groomer who deals with all breeds, sizes and behaviours to which we do our best to cater for. I am trained in pet first aid and behaviour and done a further advanced course on pets, so have extra knowledge in areas that may help with jobs. I currently work 4 days a week 9-6, on Thursdays I switch between 9-6, 10-7 or 11-8. My days off switch every other week so can offer some sort of set schedule for clients and work around my working hours. I am a trustworthy person who will ensure your pets safety, getting to know your pet with a meet and greet to allow me to get to know the owner and the pets and if they need catering for differently.

“Amazing service! I contacted Erin asking her to walk my dog last minute and she came straight away. She is very friendly, polite and trustworthy. My dog was so comfortable and settled around her x”

I understand that anxious dogs require patience, structure, and a calm presence, and I tailor my approach to their unique needs. ✔️ Experienced with Anxious Dogs: I recognize signs of stress and use positive reinforcement, soothing techniques, and familiar routines to help ease their anxiety. ✔️ Slow & Gentle Approach: I let nervous dogs set the pace, avoiding forced interactions and creating a space where they feel secure. ✔️ Maintaining Their Routine: I stick to their usual feeding, exercise, and comfort rituals to minimize stress. ✔️ Calming Techniques: I use soft tones, gentle movements, and enrichment activities to keep their minds engaged and relaxed. ✔️ Regular Updates: I provide frequent check-ins, photos, and videos so you can see how they’re doing.

Pet care fits seamlessly into my lifestyle, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s a long walk, a cuddle session, or just keeping them company, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. In my home, pets are treated like family—they have full access to cozy spaces, including sofas and beds, because I believe they should feel as comfortable as possible while away from home. Whether they love to cuddle or need their own space, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. ✔️ Spacious & Comfortable Environment: My home has a big enough living room where pets can lounge, play, or nap without feeling cramped. ✔️ Secure Outdoor Space: I have a fenced garden, providing a safe area for pets to run, explore, and enjoy fresh air under supervision. ✔️ Home Comforts: Pets are welcome on the furniture and can sleep in the bed if they choose, just like they would at home. ✔️ Plenty of Attention: Whether it’s belly rubs, playtime, or peaceful naps, I ensure they get the love and care they’re used to. ✔️ Exercise & Enrichment: Daily walks, interactive toys, and fun activities keep them happy and engaged. ✔️ Routine & Familiarity: I maintain their feeding and potty schedule to minimize stress. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their routine and provide a calm, familiar presence while you’re away.

About: I grew up with 4 cats and 2 Labradors in my family, this sparked my compassion for animals. I adore playing, training, and most importantly making sure they have everything they need such as enough sleep, the right nutrition, enrichment and exercise! Presently, I am the owner of a Labrador puppy (and a cute elderly hamster)! She is incredibly well behaved, extremely well trained and always happy - this did not go without lots of highs and lows 😂. If you choose me to walk or look after your pet I will not disappoint. I am positive I will be able to give your dog anything it needs. I am able to handle large, strong breeds and I am also experienced with reactive dogs and how to train them. I am currently a postgraduate Student Doctor at the University of Liverpool meaning I have free time when most people are working! I am available intermittently during week days and available most weekends. I have a large fenced garden where my Labrador puppy loves to play and forage for food! She gets an amazing variety of exercise and training including tug of war, fetch, heel and recall work, and lots more enrichment. Our puppy also has specific nap times after a large meal or exercise which hugely helps dog behaviour as well as limiting any problems with digestion.

“Looked after my boy at very short nice and provided a great service. Very polite and on time. Followed instructions and provided a package I could only wish for. Great person and very much recommended.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals all my life, my own family rabbit, hamster and dog and I’ve looked after countless friends and family members pets. I’ve always been and always will be an animal lover and know what is needed to take care of dogs physically with walking and playing; and mentally with activities and mental stimulation. I currently work 4 days a week with either a Monday or a Friday off so will have availability on those days as well as weekends. I have a child free and pet free home, however I regularly have my family dog round to stay if your dog prefers doggy companionship. Your dog will be allowed onto the couch to snuggle up and be treated like a family member. I have a fenced garden with lots of space for outdoor play and lots of local walks in my area.
