About: I have grown up with dogs, absolutely love taking my friends dogs for long walks in the countryside. They have also stayed with me at my home whilst their mommy’s are on holiday. I take great care in making sure their dogs are happy and content when with me. When we go out for walks I have a vast array of doggy essentials! I am also very safety conscious when out and about as their safety is a priority. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time for pet care and dog walks. I like to take walks outdoors every day and also pop to the gym a few times a week. Please note my day job demands I work Monday and Tuesday 9-5 and Wednesday 9-12.45 out of the home therefore I can’t take any dogs on these days/times unless they are ok to be left 4 hours. My garden is fully enclosed and I currently do not own any pets. I only board one dog or 2 dogs from the same household at a time. I have owned cats for the last 20 years but currently taking a break from being an owner as the lost of my elderly cat devastated our family.

I can’t recommend Anna enough! She was absolutely amazing with my dogs – even brought them toys afterwards which was such a lovely touch. My dog who’s usually very shy took to her straight away, which really says it all. She was kind, professional, and clearly cares so much about the dogs she looks after. Will definitely be booking again!

Hannah was amazing on her first walk with my dog! She was friendly, professional, and clearly loves animals. My dog came back happy and well-exercised, and I really appreciated the time taken to get to know him and his nature before the walk. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!

Linton, DE12

About: I absolutely adore all animals- especially dogs- and I am passionate about their welfare. My husband and I have cared for dogs for over ten years now, as well as cats, turtles and fish. I am DBS checked and certified in canine first aid. As a pet owner myself, I fully understand how hard it can be to trust someone else with your precious little fur baby; rest assured they will be treated as one of my own here. Lots of love and dedicated attention in a peaceful, rural environment. I currrently work from home most days. This means that I can be flexible with my sitting schedule and also with walking/ play times etc. I live with my husband, Dan and our rescue French Bulldog, Stitch. We are fortunate to have a spacious house with a large, enclosed garden. We also have a woodland, park and nature reserve all within walking distance so plenty of opportunities for lovely walks.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and puppies of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I provide safe walks, fun playtime, feeding, cuddles, and reliable, loving care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I currently work shifts, which means my availability can be flexible. On early shifts I am free most afternoons and evenings, and on late shifts I am available most mornings and early afternoons. This allows me to fit in plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, and giving each pet the attention they deserve. In my home, dogs are treated like part of the family. They always have access to fresh water, comfy spaces to rest, and plenty of supervised playtime. I follow each owner’s routine closely, including feeding times, walks, and any special requirements. Safety comes first, so dogs are never left unattended for long periods. Most importantly, I give them love, cuddles, and attention to make them feel safe and happy.

About: Hi there! I’m Aryane, a responsible and animal-loving person originally from Brazil, now living in the UK. Back home, I have a beautiful dachshund named Pitaya — she’s the love of my life! Unfortunately, she couldn’t come with me to the UK, so I’m hoping to share my care and affection with other furry friends while I’m here. I have years of experience caring for dogs, and I know how important it is to treat them with love, patience, and respect — just like family. I’m available for dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits, and I always adapt to each pet’s personality and routine. I’m reliable, punctual, and will happily send updates and photos during every visit. Whether your dog is full of energy or prefers quiet cuddles, I’m here to make them feel happy and safe. I’d love to meet your pet soon and give them lots of love while you’re away! 🐾💛 I'm a student, so I can optimize my schedule a lot and dedicate myself to my work with animals. I am available in the morning and also in the afternoon. If you need me to come to your house and take care of your pet, I will come too. feel free to ask your questions. Animals should always be well cared for, well fed, their paws clean, warm, and happy. If possible, it should always be in very safe places.
