“Mel💖 Our Bella absolutely adores Mel, I know this last visit Bella didn't want to walk but Mel entertained her for the hour and as long as it breaks up Bella's day we're happy! She was well worn out and took herself into her crate before Mel left which was great news! Will continue to book with Mel, she's fab🥰”
2. Beverley R.
“I met Beverley before she walked the dogs, my first impression was a wonderful kind caring lady, whom I knew I could trust, she bonded well with the dogs and we all felt very at ease with Beverley. She arranged every day on time and my friend said the dogs seem to enjoy and look forward to their walks. Thank you very much for putting my mind at ease whilst on holiday knowing they would be exercised. Would definitely recommend.”
3. Elizabeth F.
“My daughter Elizabeth Ford who is a registered veterinary nurse has owned dogs for 20 years and has sometimes looked after our dog when we were away. She loves playing with dogs and exercising them and as she has always had two she is happy with more than one. She is always careful to provide an appropriate diet. I would thoroughly recommend her as a loving dog sitter”

About: I have had both cats and dogs for many years and current owned four cats and two dogs, I am a massive animal lover and feel that when you take care of someone else's pet you should treat that pet as your own. I am a stay at home mum therefore my schedule is very flexible and with my loveable toddler we are excited to meet so many new friends. I would stick to any schedule that is given to me to ensure that any animal is not anxious, my own dog Percy is very anxious so I understand what's like to cope with this and keeping a schedule helps.

About: We’ve had dogs in the family for 15 years, including a beagle and our current lovable friend Roxy, the Goldendoodle. We (married couple) have two children, aged 2 and 6, who love having dogs around the house. They enjoy throwing balls, running together and helping out with bathtime. But we also understand when to keep them away, if your dog prefers quiet time or doesn’t like children. I work on an ad-hoc freelance basis, so am mostly at home. Because of this, I can usually be flexible to suit any particular timings or routines you and your dog may have. We live in rural Usk, and have a large, secure, fenced garden. We have many nice walks on our doorstep, including woodland walks and rivers.
6. George D.
“George went above & beyond when walking Kobe for the first time. He was on time, gave our boy a really good walk and helped to clean him on his return. Our relatives that were here when he came to walk our dog said George was lovely - friendly & professional. The walk was recorded on Rover and we were very impressed with the level of detail provided. Will definitely be using George again!”

10. Paisley D.
“Paisley LOVES animals! So much in fact, she will often put their comfort before her own! I think Paisley would rather spend time with animals over people sometimes 😂 she will be the bestest companion for your pet for sure!”
11. Kara J.
“Kara is the most friendliest, kindest and thoughtful person I know. She enjoys looking after / walking / being around animals and cares for them as if they were her own. You will find Kara reliable, honest and gives 100% to everything she does. I cannot recommend Kara enough - every loving pet owner wants nothing but the best for their animals … Kara will 100% provide this (time and time again).”
12. Francesca M.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, taken care of and trained many myself. In recent years. My darling dog teg had epilepsy so it’s given me good experience handling dogs medication and extra help. I am a serious dog lover, have never been without a family dog until I had my daughter who’s 3. She has followed in my footsteps of loving our fur babies. I live in a ground floor flat in a smoke free home close to wonderful parks. Really enjoy going for long walks. Ground floor flat, with secure access, close to boating lake and other local parks. I’m easy going and treat fur babies like family. So cwtches on the sofa are perfectly acceptable to me 😊
13. Jess P.
About: Licensed, registered and insured✅ Our baby is a long-haired miniature dachshund girl called Roo. Me and James have experience taking care of our girl who is now almost 3. James also had Bella growing up who was a king Charles spaniel. We also both look after many family pets including Bmo who is my aunties dog, and Milo who is James’ sister dog. We love spending time with them all and love their individual characters. Been welcoming dogs into our home now since April 2023 and never looked back! 🥰 I'm currently working part time so have lots of days off in the week and/or over weekends, James works full time from home and so there will always be someone to take care and play with with the dogs and give them all the attention they need. We have a fenced garden, and also lots of great places to walk near by. As long as dogs are clean and well trained they can use our home like they would their own home, cwtch up on the sofa and go roaming around and have a play. We will always ask you what regular routines are in place so we can keep to as close as what they are used to as possible.
14. Katie M.
“Katie has walked my dogs for me on numerous occasions and my dogs have felt very happy and settled with her. She takes time to get to know the dogs and earn their trust and is very gentle and kind with them. I am very happy to have such a kind and reliable dog walker and would highly recommend her.”
15. Cherry S.
“Cherry has dog sits for my two chihuahuas, they have a lovely time and are tired out by the time I come home. Cherry also dog walks for me three times a week, I just leave the key for her now and she gets on with it while I'm at work. One of my dogs barks a lot at other dogs on walks so it's a relief to have someone who knows what to do when they act up a little. Thank you :)”
16. Jake P.
“I would highly recommend Jake to walk your dog. I was so nervous to let my dog go on walks with another person, however I was put as so much ease as Jake was willing to send photos of my dog whilst on a walk at my request and she looked so so happy. The walk she has is 100% worth the money I pay, due to me not having time due to work hours. Jake is such a lovely man, well mannered, very respectful and very friendly. Never had a bad experience with Jake, highly recommend, 10/10! x”
17. Rhys F.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was born, i’m 22 years old now and i’ve never known a life without animals in it. I’ve had all kinds of dogs growing up from big to small ones, assertive to timid ones and playful to quiet ones, no matter what kind of dog they were I was always able to adjust to the animal and make sure they all had amazing lives. I love walking and taking care of all animals, I haven’t been able to see my pets as much since going to university where I furthered my love for animals by studying Wildlife Conservation! I am an extremely trustworthy person and would love to be chosen to take care of your pets. Since I have now finished university and am now moving back home I am able to focus completely on looking after yours and my pets. There will be times I am unavailable due to other commitments like seeing friends or family but I will always inform you if that is the case. I have a really large back garden which is all fenced in and allows my dogs to enjoy outside time whenever they need throughout the day. I feed my pets twice a day and make sure their water is constantly topped up, especially on hot days like it is now. My dogs are getting older now so they’re experiencing some more difficulties with moving around which means I have had to adjust their care but as I stated before I have been more than capable.
18. Lolly H.
About: Hi there, I’m Lolly:) I have been taking care of family and friends dogs for the last 3 years. I have done volunteer work for a rescue centre near me including cleaning out kennels, feeding and walking dogs. I have done pet sitting for family friends, including walking, feeding, grooming and bathing. I have completed a foundation level 3 animal management diploma which included animal handling, behaviour and health I and received a merit. I am at home most of the time caring for my own 2 dogs. Any dogs I sit for will be my priority throughout the duration they are with me. I have a fenced garden and 2 friendly dogs to keep your pup company. I have access to crates should your dog need to be crated and can leave the back door to the garden open so they can come and go as they please. When caring for pets in an owners home I like to know whether the dogs have any house rules and make sure to adhere to any training they are undergoing. I can stick to schedules, and allow as much outdoor time as needed as I love walking and being outdoors with dogs. I currently work on week days but am considering stopping work to dog sit full time! I currently have plenty of time in the mornings, evenings and weekends to give your pup the time they need. I have a fenced garden and 2 dogs to keep your pup company throughout the duration of their stay. I can keep the dogs separate at night and when out of the house to keep all the dogs happy and safe.

About: I have vast horse management exp, working on eventing yards. Have worked in well established dog kennels and on farm with dogs, cats, chicken, sheep and horses. I have had a private dog walking client for three years. I work four days a week but I am able to adapt my diary to suit myself which offers flexibility. I can be available weekends, mornings and evenings. I will keep dogs on a lead until I feel we have built a good enough rapport/ relationship and have full recall. This will also be something I will assess on a case by case basis informed by the owners.
