Dog Walking in Tameside

About: I had a family dog since I was a teenager for 12 years and have looked after them in my spare time ever since. Now in my thirties, I've gained a lot of experience with dogs of many different ages, breeds and temperaments. I'm currently available pretty much whenever you need, for whatever you need. Whether it be just a few hours or a few days, I'm happy to help!I I live on a quiet, dog friendly cut-de-sac with lots of parks nearby. And I have a fenced garden, with plenty of space for your pup to run around and play.

About: I’ve taken care of pets for the majority of my life whether it be my own cats or family and friends dogs and cats. I’ve always loved taking care of animals and helping out so taking them for walks or looking after them for periods of time when needed, making sure they’re happy and well looked after brings me so much joy. I am currently working from home trying to start my own photography business so i am very flexible and can provide drop in visits/ walking services whenever needed. I will always keep your dogs safe and on the lead when on walks, as well as always checking with you on whether your dogs are okay to interact with other dogs on the walk or not, if they are i will always keep an eye on body language and other signs of stress when they are around other dogs. Your dogs safety and happiness is my main priority when looking after them When doing drop in visits i will make sure your cat/dog has food in their bowl, has been to the toilet and has had a good amount of play/cuddle time. I am happy to do drop in visits for longer if you need me to! as long as both you and your furry friend are happy then i don’t mind!. I will also make sure the house is safe, ensuring doors and windows are locked upon leaving.

About: Ive always lived in pet friendly households so ive grown up knowing how to take care of animals. I looked after my family's dog when I was a teenager, being the one to walk him and play with him and listen to his general needs. I adopted my own dog as soon as I was able to, he died over a year ago and I miss hom hut im not in a situation where I can adopt a new dog. Both dogs at some point in their lives have been nervous and/or reactive so i have experience working with difficult dogs but I am also happy working with calmer dogs. I had a behaviouralist for my dog so I am also happy working with the training techniques given by a behaviouralist to help support you dog. I am currently unemployed having been a stay at home mum for the last 5 years so im most flexible during school times. I have been trusted by my friends to dog- and cat-sit their pets and I just generally love all animals. I am currently unemployed so I am super available but I also have two small kids to parent outside of school times so im most flexible during the day but also available at other points with enough notice I am happy to care for pets my home or their own, availability depending. I am also available for walks, day visits to let pets out to the garden. If im needed to board animals in my home they need to be good with kids as well

“Megan was fantastic, wolf loved his walks. Really reliable and helpful was so happy to see her. Would 100 percent recommend. Wolf is a large breed who is scared of other dogs, Megan was not phased by this as she has lots of experience. Thank you Megan.”

About: I’m offering services because I genuinely love spending time with dogs and being outdoors. There’s nothing better than seeing a happy, tail-wagging pup enjoying fresh air and exercise. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I have 23 years of experience with dogs of many breeds. I take great care of animals and treat them like they are my own. I am currently working full time during the week in the NHS but I have flexibility for evenings and weekends. I am open to work around your schedule when needed. When caring for pets in the owner’s home, I focus on keeping their normal routine exactly the same. Being in their familiar environment helps reduce stress, so I follow feeding , walking and general care instructions carefully. I respect the home by keeping everything tidy, secure, and exactly as I found it. My goal in both settings is the same: to provide loving, attentive care so your pet feels safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away.

About: Based in ASHTON UNDER LYNE 🥰 I love animals so so much and have been taking care of peoples pets for as far as I can remember, I love being asked to take care of someone’s pet, it makes me so so happy. From my neighbours dog, cat to helping my friend who is also a dog sitter! It brings so much joy into my life. I used to have my own cat, Tiggy, who lived until 19 years old, I miss him dearly. I work 9-5 but remotely on Mondays and Fridays. I love going to walks in my spare time 🥰 so animal company is even better, I love all animals and not afraid of any!! Over the years I’ve learnt about different animals needs. I think it’s important to understand the animal as an individual in order to keep them happy. For example one cat might hate belly rubs whereas another will love them! (My cat didn’t approve)

About: I’ve helped my partner look after many different types of dogs over the last few years, from German Shepherds to Teacup Dachshunds. I’m now looking for dog walking opportunities of my own. I have owned dogs for 35 years and I’m currently the owner of an 8 year old Springer Spaniel and a 10 year old miniature Yorkshire Terrier (these 2 won’t be joining me on the walks). I’m willing to offer solo dog walks where required. I’m currently studying Counselling and splitting care for my elderly father with my family, this allows me some free time during the week to fit in local dog walking. I always walk other people’s dogs on a lead and try and cover as much ground as possible to give the dog and myself a good amount of exercise (unless the dog is elderly or I have been given precise instructions on how to walk a dog)

“Very quick response, was able to walk my dog last minute. Kind, polite and driven. Wouldn’t book anyone else but Elizabeth, she’s amazing!!”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life, with experience caring for a wide range of breeds and temperaments. Growing up with Labradors and greyhounds, and later owning my own Labrador, gave me a strong foundation in understanding dogs’ physical and emotional needs. I have extensive hands on experience with greyhounds through my family dad and his partner, which she is a greyhound trainer, as well as through kennel work caring for racing greyhounds. This background has taught me calm, confident handling and an appreciation for structure, routine, and safety. I have also run a dog walking business, working with dogs of all sizes and breeds. Alongside this experience, I offer a safe, secure fenced garden and a reliable, attentive approach to ensure every dog in my care feels secure, exercised, and well looked after. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life and something I am deeply passionate about. I have relaunched my dog walking business, which allows me to dedicate my days to caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds. Your dog will be in safe hands, joining me on walks that are not only fun and engaging but also tailored to their individual needs. I have a secure, fenced garden that provides a safe and spacious area for dogs to run, play, and enjoy themselves. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and the enclosed space ensures they can explore and exercise freely in a safe environment.

About: As a Registered Veterinary Nurse with over 10 years of experience, I bring a level of professional knowledge and reassurance that many standard pet sitters simply can’t offer 🩺🐾 Working in veterinary practice means I am highly experienced in animal behaviour, handling and recognising subtle changes in a pet’s health or wellbeing. Your pet’s safety, comfort and happiness will always be my top priority. I am trained in fear-free handling, meaning I focus on creating calm and positive experiences for pets, especially those who may feel nervous, shy or anxious around new people or environments 🤍🐶🐱 I am also an ISFM Cat Friendly Advocate and have completed additional training in cat-friendly handling, allowing me to provide gentle, stress-aware care for feline companions 🐱✨ What really makes my service different is the combination of clinical knowledge and genuine love for animals. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Alongside my professional experience, I’m also a proud dog mum to my Basset Hound Rosie, who reminds me every day how special the bond between pets and their owners truly is 🐶💚 When your pet is in my care, you can feel confident knowing they are with someone who is qualified, experienced and truly passionate about animal welfare. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as animals have always been a huge part of my life. Alongside running my pet care services, I also work part-time as a Registered Veterinary Nurse during the week, which allows me to maintain my clinical skills while still offering flexible and reliable pet sitting and drop-in visits. Because I work part-time shifts, I’m able to plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets in my care receive the time, attention and routine they need 🐶🐱 On days I am not in practice, I have much greater flexibility for longer visits, pet sitting, walks and check-ins. When I do have a shift, I ensure visits are scheduled around my working hours so pets are never left without the care and companionship they deserve. Being a veterinary nurse also means I’m very used to structured routines and planning ahead, so you can feel confident that your pet’s feeding times, walks, medication and daily routine will always be followed carefully 🩺🐾 Caring for animals is something I genuinely love, so spending my free time looking after pets fits perfectly into my lifestyle 🤍 Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my highest priority 🤍 As a Registered Veterinary Nurse with over 10 years of experience, I am trained to recognise changes in behaviour, health and wellbeing, giving owners extra reassurance while their pets are in my care. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routine and individual needs so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or shy and cautious, I adapt my approach to ensure they feel safe and relaxed. I am passionate about fear-free handling, meaning I always aim to minimise stress and create calm, positive experiences for pets. This is especially important for nervous animals or those who may struggle with new environments. I will always respect your home and your pet’s usual routine — following feeding schedules, walk routines and medication instructions carefully 🐶🐱 As a pet owner myself, I know how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone new. That’s why I treat every animal with the same level of care, patience and compassion as I would my own 🐾💚 You can relax knowing your pet is being looked after by someone qualified, experienced and genuinely passionate about animal welfare.

“Couldn’t have asked for a better service. Neoma was super friendly, came over for a meet and greet. Kept me informed throughout and did an amazing job looking after my dog. Would absolutely recommend to anyone 🙂 Thanks Neoma!”

About: At Ruby’s Retreat, your dog will join a calm, loving home with my friendly Boxer-Staffie, Ruby. She’s always enthusiastic at first but soon settles. I have years of experience caring for friends’ and family dogs. Expect playtime, cuddles, and peaceful walks in nearby fields, plus a secure, fenced garden for safe outdoor fun. I run my own sign-making business from home, so I’m here most of the day and can offer your dog plenty of attention and company. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to adapt to your dog’s routine. I do drive but I don’t have a car. However, I’m within walking distance of parks and open green spaces for varied daily exercise and fun. I regularly care for dogs belonging to friends and family, including Ruby’s two brothers, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and a Labrador. Whether it’s for a weekend or a few weeks, I treat every dog like one of my own—providing a consistent routine, lots of affection, walks, playtime, and a calm, comfortable home environment. I take time to learn each dog’s personality and needs so they feel safe, happy, and settled.

“Nicholas walked our grayhound Koda for a week and he loved her, he would get so excited to see her each day he would be bouncing out of the house. I highly recommend Nichola and will definitely be using her services in the future.”

About: I genuinely love spending time with dogs, they’re pure joy to be around 🥰 I’m saving for my own home so I’m not in a position for my own dog. I’m looking to fill my spare time looking after other dogs to get my animal fix until I can get my own. I regularly sit for friends/ family and have a couple of regular clients (only just started expanding outside of friends/ family). I’ve attracted clients through word of mouth. As I don’t have my own home, I would need to house and dog sit. I usually come to meet your dog ahead of sitting so your dog is comfortable with me and knows who I am. This also gives me the opportunity to get to know your dog, understand their needs and routine. It’s my priority to ensure your dog is as happy as possible during the sit. I have experience dealing with reactive dogs (aggression towards other dogs or excitement to see people/ dogs). If there are any behavioural issues, please do let me know so I can manage their behaviour during walks etc. Any questions, please drop me a message. I have a hybrid role, I’m usually in the office/ travel to meetings 1-2 times a week. I may require a walker to pop in on these days but I will let you know upon booking and reimburse you for the days a walker is required. I usually take the dog for 2 - 3 walks a day depending on their capabilities. A walk in the morning before I log onto work (9am). A walk on my lunch break (anytime between 12 & 2) and usually do an hour walk in the evening. I do drive so if your dog travels well in a car, I’d love nothing more than to take them further afield for a lovely countryside or beach side walk. I’m love playing or cuddling with dogs so your dog will get endless care and attention! I don’t do off lead walking on my first time sitting. I usually like to build a rapport and trust with your dog before I entertain this. I do have some dogs that know me well enough to have good recall but I do treat this with caution. You will need to have WiFi and be ok with me working from your home. I’ve had experience with French Bulldogs, Tibetan Terriers, Bichon Frise, Brussels Griffon, Pomski and a Labrador. Get in touch if you have any questions!

“Rodney was over the moon to see Chris . We have booked Chris in on a regular basis now . This was only the second time they have met and it’s going really well . Happy Rodney , happy us . Thanks Chris 😊”
