Just to say a big thank you for looking after and walking Luna with Mark & Roxy whilst I partied in Dublin! Both dogs have really taken to Hannah 😁

Daniel was brilliant with my dog Archie. He met with us to answer any questions and meet Archie before we went on holiday so I knew we were leaving him in good hands for his morning walks. He dealt with Archie’s pulling brilliantly and Archie loved his walks and was calm all day after his walks with Daniel! Thank you so much!

Jacki has been a fantastic dog walker for our Romanian rescue. She is always very responsive and sends us lots of pictures of his walks, where he looks like he’s having the time of his life! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend! Thanks so much 😊

About: Hi, we’re Beth and Tom! We’re lifelong dog and cat owners who are calm, patient, and experienced, having trained three puppies and previously fostered dogs. We live in a countryside house with a large, secure garden and beautiful walks right on our doorstep, and Tom holds an FdSC in Animal Behaviour and Welfare. Beth works from home, so is available throughout the day for walks and cuddles, and Tom is a paramedic who works a shift pattern, meaning we always have great cover for doggy day care, regular walks, and boarding. Beth also has lots of housesitting experience, having cared for many dogs throughout a year in New Zealand (unfortunately the many lovely reviews can’t be transferred!). We’re always happy to send regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. We’re really excited to meet you and your gorgeous pets 🐾 I work full time from home, so your pets will get plenty of walks, cuddles, and attention throughout the day. With Tom’s shift days off, we always have extra hands to spoil and care for your furry friends whenever they need us! We have a secure, fully fenced garden with lots of room for outdoor exploration and play. Inside, your pets will have a comfortable, calm, and loving environment with plenty of attention and supervision. We make sure they stick to their usual routines for feeding, walks, and play, and we provide mental stimulation and social interaction to keep them happy. For dogs who aren’t boarding with us, we’re also very happy to visit your home for daily or twice-daily walks and check-ins, tailoring each visit to your dog’s needs and energy levels. We’re happy to administer any medications if needed and always send regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, cared for, and having fun.

Absolute star! Rosie was so gentle and understanding with my anxious dog who went happily on a walk with Rosie the first time. She kept me updated with lovely photos and information. Rosie clearly understands and loves dogs. She even gave me some great tips for local dog walking spots as I’m new to the area. I will be continuing to work with Rosie for future walks and I am leeway recommending her to my friends.

About: I’ve had a family springer spaniel for the last 7 years, but now I don’t live with my family I miss her very much. I’ve loved dogs all my life so am looking to fill the void! I currently work part time so am available for boarding Wednesdays and Fridays from 6pm onwards, and weekends! I’m also available for walks and drop ins at weekends, Tuesday and Thursday mornings, and some Monday/wednesday/fridays. I have a fenced back garden and have plenty of room for a crate in my house, or simply a bed to keep them in the kitchen overnight.

About: We've had dogs all our life. We regularly look after a mix of cockapoos and Jack Russles for our close family (Bertie, Pepper, Goose and Peggy). Would love a dog of our own but lifestyle limits the consistent commitment. Laura, she works from home at the start and tail end of the week. Sam, he is often around on the weekends and evenings. We are very active people who love walks as well as cuddles. We have a fenced garden. Wood floors and a comfy sofa! Plenty of walking routes near by including open fields (if dog is ok off lead).

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs, particularly with my two wire-haired dachshunds, one of whom is a 4-month-old puppy and the other a 6-year-old adult. Managing both young and older dogs has given me valuable insights into different stages of canine care, from training and socialisation with puppies to meeting the needs of more mature dogs. I understand the importance of consistent routines, balanced diets, regular exercise, and attention to detail when it comes to their well-being. I’m also familiar with dog-friendly activities and can tailor care to the specific needs of each dog. As I'm home full-time, I can dedicate my full attention to caring for your dog, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, affection, and personalized care throughout the day. My flexible routine allows me to cater to your dog's needs, whether it's playtime, walks, or simply keeping them company. In my home, your dog will enjoy a secure, fully fenced backyard for safe play and exercise, along with a comfortable, welcoming space where they can relax and feel at home.

About: My dog at home is 4 years old, I have trained her from basic skills to more advanced tricks. I love the outdoors and regularly go hiking in Wales. I’d love to look after dogs whether it be daytime house sitting to toilet breaks or dog walking. I’m a university student so apart from my scheduled lectures and seminars I can look after dogs most of the time owing to the fact that i’m able to do remote work and have lots of free time. I have Wednesdays and Tuesdays off and Friday is all online as well as weekends are my days that I can housesit all day. My schedule varies day to day, however, the days I am in uni it’s only for a few hours in the day, so i’m typically free at some point every day. I wouldn’t be able to have the dogs back to my flat, however out and about I’ll always start off with keeping the dogs on the lead the whole duration of the walk and once we both get to know each other better I might consider taking them off the lead in big open spaces and if I get permission from the owner.

About: I have always loved animals. My grandparents used to have a farm so I have experience with lots of animals. I used to keep many pets as a child. We have a four year old dog-friendly Pomeranian girl called Stella so I can ONLY help look after small or medium-sized dog breeds either female or neutered male who are friendlly with toy breeds. I work part-time in a nursery 3 days a week and have weekends, Mondays and Fridays off so I could give the dog my full attention then. My husband works from home so he can take care of the dogs when I am at work. We own a 4 bedroom detached house with a good size garden near a large park. I have two teenaged children and they love animals and long walks. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Kind regards, Marketa My husband works from home on the days that I work, so my dog and your dog would never be left alone for more than few hours at a time when my husband needs to go shopping for example. We have a fenced, good sized garden and 4 bedroom detached spacious home and a teenage children who adore animals and help with dog walking.

Yuet stepped in at really short notice when I hurt my knee and needed to rest it for a week. I've never used a dog walker before and was a little nervous but I needn't have been. Alfie took to Yuet straight away. She sent lots of photos and videos and Alfie clearly had a great time. Her communication was great and very comfortable recommending her.

About: I have been a pet owner since I was a child and can't pass by an animal without having some contact. I am friendly and caring but I take my responsibilities seriously. I recently lost my 14 year old dog and my 15 year old cat which has left a massive void. I don't feel, at this stage, I want to rush out and fill the void with another pet. Instead, I would like to take this opportunity, whilst I have a bit more free time, to help other pet owners. I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet and I am happy to provide a service, tailor made, to your requirements and the specific needs of your animal. I am semi retired and not in employment at the present time. I have plenty of time to fit in pet care during the week or weekend. As I will be caring for your pet in your home/garden, I will require full details of your pet's daily routine and areas to pay particular attention.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats for most of my childhood and adult life and only stopped after my 11 year old Newfoundland (one in the picture) died in 2019. My little ones are a bit older now (5 & 3) and although we don’t yet want the commitment of a new dog, it would be great for me and them to look after one or maybe two from same home for a few days at a time. I work from home, so will be in to look after the dog all day, and we are close to the Frome valley walkway and Frenchay common for walks and also have a large back garden with grass and fenced all the way around. As per description, I work from home. Only think we ask is for dog to be good with children. The children are very well behaved and love dogs so we don’t want to affect that. As above, fenced in yard. Will be able to go all around downstairs (not upstairs but we have gate) in day. We will keep in Kitchen at night as it has a stone floor so any accidents can be easily cleaned. In winter we will give access to garden as much as needed (via patio door or back door), but in summer doors will be open all day for them to have access.

Joanne is simply wonderful. Our rescue yorkie, Baxter, has quite a few issues but Joanne has always been kind, thoughtful & patient. She is experienced with rescue dogs & I get photo updates from the walks, which look gorgeous. Baxter adores her & gets super excited when she picks him up. Its a huge relief to have such a wonderful person helping us. One of Baxters issues is separation anxiety so next week Joanne is helping us by Dog sitting for a couple of hours after Baxters walks. I honestly can’t recommend Joanne highly enough.

Martin has been fantastic! Always on time, has taken him out for the correct length of time and rain or shine! He’s great with communication, I can’t fault anything. Morris has loved all his walks with Martin and came back all tuckered out. Feel lucky to found such a great walker! Thank you!

We haven't used a dog walker or sitter before and Bill (our 22-month-old Staffy) can get incredibly excited and overwhelmed when meeting new people but Emma-Jayne was just brilliant. She took the time to meet Bill and get to know him before taking him out on their first walk together. We feel completely at ease now and know that Bill is already looking forward to their next walk together 🐶🐕
