Dog Walking Sherborne

“Emma looked after our two dogs while we were away, taking them out for their daily walks or just playing with them due to the heat. This was the first time anyone outside of our family had walked them, and it was clear from the updates and photos that they had an amazing time in Emma’s care. We were kept informed every day with messages and pictures, which gave us complete peace of mind. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Emma again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and professional pet care. Thank you, Emma!”

About: I am a reliable and caring individual and I take great pride in looking after my own animals as well as other peoples. I am a friendly individual and I am able to offfer services such as house sitting, dog sitting, dog walking and drop in visits. I have a part time job but luckily I am able to work around this so I am always able to fit in the needs of your pets. I will follow how the owner would like me to care for their animal wether it’s in my own home or in their home. I would not care for an animal in a way the owner did not like or want.

“Vicky was great. She made friends with Kiki immediately and Kiki warned to her straight away too. Vicky took Kiki for some brilliant walks and I had one very happy, tired pooch after. Vicky came over as very competent and knowledgable and fun! Thank you Vicky!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember and have years of hands-on experience with dogs, cats, rabbits and other small pets. I also run my own professional pet care business, where I provide trusted pet sitting, dog walking and pop-in visits for a wide range of pets. Every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality and individual needs to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m experienced in caring for puppies, senior pets and pets with additional medical needs, including administering medication and insulin injections for diabetic cats. I pride myself on being reliable, caring and trustworthy, and I always keep owners updated with regular photos and messages for complete peace of mind. Pet care is my full-time focus, so I have a flexible schedule to meet your pet’s needs. As the owner of my own pet care business, I’m experienced in providing reliable walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays and tailored care throughout the week and weekends. I work around each pet’s usual routine to keep them happy, comfortable and stress-free while you’re away, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages. Your pet’s safety, happiness and wellbeing are my top priorities. I always take the time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality and any specific care requirements before looking after them. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or out on walks, I provide calm, patient and attentive care while treating your home with the utmost respect. I’m experienced in administering medication, including insulin injections for diabetic cats, and I’m confident caring for puppies, senior pets and nervous animals. I believe in building trust with both pets and their owners, so you can feel completely confident that your pet is in safe, caring hands.

About: I’ve grown up and looked after dogs my whole life. All shapes and sizes. I am fortunate to have a large fenced garden and surround by nothing but fields. I like nothing better than to be out in the fresh air normally accompanied by my gorgeous Viszla. I am currently not working so am at home and free all day. I walk my dog twice a day for an hour at a time. I have an enclosed garden and a very friendly Viszla who is very sociable and on dry days spends most of it outside. Her choice.

About: I have 1 gorgeous Goldador at home.I have experience with newborn puppies as my parents oldest dog has had 2 litters (1st with 10 puppies (1 of them is my fur baby!) and 2nd with 7) so I am capable of looking after lots of dogs at a time and can handle stressful situations. All of my dogs are active at and when at home I take them on long walks daily and make sure they are mentally stimulated. Both of them are very well behaved and I trained them myself and to a very high standard (can do a variety of tricks). I love dogs all shapes and sizes and can easily adapt to any situation. I look forward to meeting your dog and hopefully they will become my new best friend!! I am at home in Norwich for the summer until I go back to university at the end of September and will be available weekdays and weekends with notice I will happily spend time with your dogs in your garden or take them on one of my favourite walking routes to make sure they have the best time with me :)

“Zoe was able to walk my dog last minute as I had to leave him at home unexpectedly. He is a bit of an anxious dog and Zoe took the time to let him get comfortable with her and sent me written updates and pictures :)”

About: I have always had dogs, amongst various other animals, growing up and have been given responsibility with them from a young age. Over the last four/five years I have done various dog and house sitting, for a range of times and with up to two dogs. I am currently doing a Uni course with the Open University therefore all online. Which means I have plenty of time to play with and prioritise your pets. I will only be dog sitting in others houses and I don’t have the room in my own home but anything that is needed for you dog will be done.

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs, I adopted a rescue pup 8 years ago who lives with my Dad. I miss him so much and would love to spread some love to some other cats and doggies in my area. I work as a freelancer so my work is online and I choose my hours, meaning I have lots of flexibility to add some extra joy into my days. I have experience with reactive dogs and while I can’t offer boarding in my own home, I find that animals are much more comfortable in their own homes and surrounding areas. If your dog is particularly reactive to new people, I am happy to set up a meeting beforehand in a neutral setting to get them familiar with me.

“Caesar had a good walk today with Fiona , thank you !”

“I’m really happy with Tianna's help walking Vixen . She went out of her way to assist, even though it was a bit far for her this time. Tianna suggested day care as a better option for socialisation, which shows how much she cares about what’s best for the dogs. Nala, Tianna's dog, is already used to being around other dogs, so this was perfect. I would definitely use Tianna’s services again—she’s thoughtful, professional, and clearly loves what she does!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a while, i’m patient and will understand any needs you may described from me. From Tibetan Terriers to Rottweilers. I currently work 7:30am-4:00pm Monday-Friday. So early morning or late afternoon suits me best and any time on the weekends i’m easy going really. I don’t personally own a dog at the moment but i’m mainly into walking dogs so it’s just that for the time being

About: I have taken care of dogs for way over 8 years for friends, family and local people to me. From walking to bathing, to feeding and cuddles. I love it all, and love spending overnight time with my furry friends I am currently working part time so have a lot of time for my fury friends, with availability to do overnight stays any days of the week. I am very cautious of keeping my fury friends in sight at all times and granted their and their owners wishes for their routines, as well as ensure they get plenty of fun exercise and cuddles

About: I LOVE animals! I have always been an animal lover from a very young age and have had dogs in my home! I love both cats and dogs and am a very respectful, responsible young lady who understands the stress when going away to find someone you feel comfortable and happy with in your home! I have a sprokerpoo called Ernie, and we’ve recently had this issue! I work from home with my own business in social media management, so I thought why not offer pet sitting and other services! I also have qualifications in teaching and elderly care so I am an overall compassionate and loving person! As I work from home (or anywhere with internet) I can virtually be free most of the time to pet sit! I drive and am happy to travel to you for petrol fees! If anyone has any questions you can always message! I am very eager to meet, play with and love your pets just as much as you do 🤍 I work for myself, so I choose my own hours! If you have internet in your home (if I’m house sitting) your pet friends will have a companion all day everyday for as long as you need! Working from home means I have availability to walk and drop in to see your little darlings too! In my home, I have a fully enclosed garden and have to make sure everything is put away! (Shoes are my puppy’s favourite!) I am very aware of my surroundings with my dog and what is safe for him to eat/not eat! I work full time for myself from home so this allows me a large amount of flexibility regarding my routine. This is a huge benefit to pet owners I help as I can work around your schedule/your pets schedule at ease! If I have any work calls whilst at your home I will let you know timings in advance, but this will not impact your pet sitting/daycare experience in any way! If your pet is coming to my home. He/she will be safe at all times. I won’t leave your pet if that’s what you require and make sure they are safe and well looked after at all times!

About: Everyone around me will agree that I am absolutely obsessed with animals. Any animal that has come into my care has had a life of luxury. My partner and I have had endless comments on how well behaved our dogs are. My experience ranges from young dogs through to senior dogs, Including cats and sadly we lost my old cat last year. He was my best friend and the attachment we had was rare. I think about him every day. My senior dog is supported when she has harder days, especially when certain walks can be challenging for her. I will carry her up bigger steps and walk at her pace. Like humans we get bored with the same routine and so we vary the walks we go on. Whether it is a trip to the beach, a walk in the woods or running around an open field, rest assured they will have plenty of fun. I also work part-time in care and my dogs like to come with me, they are such good therapy. I will happily walk a client's dog as I like to help out where I can. My parents live locally and will quiet often have our dogs as company, they recently lost their dog and the loss has left a hole in their hearts. I will always take any instructions seriously and what wish for your pet is my command. I want you and your pet to feel comfortable knowing they will get the best care. ANY animal in my care will be loved and cherished like my own. I have plenty of free time. My partner takes our dogs to work and they also stay part-time with my parents. We don't have children and very little commitments. I work part-time and I luckily have flexibility from day to day. I have all the right safety measures in place. This includes plenty of room and 0.25 acres of land with plenty of local walks. My garden is secure.

“Hannah is a lovely person and my dog adores her! She is kind, patient and reliable and I am thrilled to have found such a great dog-Walker.”

About: I’ve always loved animals and grew up with cats, who will always have a special place in my heart. I’ve spent years caring for animals in different settings, which has helped me develop a patient, confident, and attentive approach to their care. Compassion and patience are paramount in my approach to earning a pet’s trust and building lasting bonds. I’m frequently asked to look after my friend’s pets as the owners trust me, and more importantly, so do the animals! I’m DBS-checked and can provide certification for peace of mind. I’m responsible, attentive, and active, making sure pets get the care, companionship, and exercise they need. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something I’m genuinely passionate about. I am extremely flexible with my availability over the next few months, as I’m on standby with my current job. This means I’m available throughout the winter and spring and can provide boarding or day care whenever needed, giving your pets attentive care and companionship while you’re busy or away. I provide a safe, comfortable, and caring environment for my cats. They enjoy free access through a cat flap and happily enjoy their independence. However I’m experienced with indoor care too, including litter trays and regular playtime. I also walk my neighbours dogs, ensuring they get exercise, attention, and companionship tailored to their needs. Every pet in my care is treated with patience, trust, and genuine affection.

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats at home, so caring for animals has been a big part of my life. I’ve also helped friends, family and neighbours by looking after their pets, from feeding and walks to overnight care. I’m especially comfortable with puppies and senior pets, understanding the extra patience and attention they need. I’m calm, reliable and will treat your pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy and well looked after. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins and sitting during weekdays (especially afternoons) as well as weekends. I can be flexible where possible, so feel free to message to check specific times. I have a secure, fenced garden where dogs can safely play, along with two friendly dogs who are used to being around others. I can crate your dog if needed and will always follow your routine to keep things consistent. I provide a calm, safe and loving environment and will treat your pet like part of the family. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos for peace of mind.
