About: I have been fortunate to own and care for many dogs throughout my whole life. From puppies to seniors, I have experience with many different breeds and temperaments. I look after family and friends dogs and have the time, patience and space to provide a home from home when their owners are away. I’m semi retired and only work a few hours a week from home; so I have plenty of time to play, walk and be there for your dog. I’m available 7 days a week. I live in a detached house with a large secured front and back garden. There’s plenty of space for your dog to roam around freely, sniff and explore. Our furry guests are always supervised when out playing in the garden. We live near some lovely open spaces and scenic walks.
About: I’ve been around different kinds of dogs all my life. My sister has a dog called Nala who I look after while she’s out or on holidays. Love to make dogs feel happy and loved. My main priority is keeping your dogs safe and well looked after I have looked a variety of dogs and I always cater for their needs and take them on lovely walks. I’m currently working part time remotely from home but I can fit my work around looking after pets. I can pet sit in my home. I don’t have any other pets. It’s just myself and my daughter who loves having the dogs. I have a fenced with a gate front garden. I have a ginnel with my neighbour with a locked gate with a key which leads to my back garden which is fenced and has a locked gate. Plenty of space and very safe so they can be inside or out. I can leave my back door open for the dogs to come inside and out. I have quite an open downstairs so the dogs have room to venture around.

I’m patient, reliable and will always make sure your dog feels safe, happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve looked after dogs and cats for as long as I can remember and have always been the person friends and family rely on when they need someone dependable to care for their pets. I currently have a 3-year-old cocker spaniel called Ozzy, so I understand the importance of routine, exercise, patience and giving dogs the right balance of attention and calm. I also regularly look after my mother-in-law’s 4-year-old lab, Max, which has given me experience caring for larger, energetic dogs with different personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, play, overnight care and sticking closely to routines that help pets feel settled and secure while their owners are away. I know how important trust and communication are when leaving your pet with someone else, so I always aim to provide thoughtful, reliable care and regular updates throughout. I work from home, so my routine is very flexible and I can plan pet care around each dog’s needs. I’m available for dog walks and home visits on weekdays between 11:30am and 2pm, and I’m also available at any time on weekends. I’m happy to work around regular routines, whether that means a steady walk, a lunchtime check-in, feeding, playtime, or simply giving your pet some company while you’re out. For walks and visits, I focus on keeping pets safe, settled and cared for in their usual routine. I’ll follow any instructions closely, make sure they have fresh water, food if needed, and give them attention, play or a calm walk depending on their needs. As a dog owner myself, I’m attentive to behaviour, exercise needs and giving dogs the right balance of play, structure and downtime. I always take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality and any specific requirements so they receive care that feels familiar and consistent. I’ll always keep owners updated, so you know your pet has been looked after properly while you’re out.

“Saras is Benjis first dog walker and has made such a positive difference to our family, especially Benji. We are no longer stressed about Benji being alone due to our changing work schedules and he is so much happier when we get home…he is certainly better behaved on our usual evening walks. Benji is very happy and content with his new best friend Saras. Saras is very friendly, reliable and trustworthy, we always feel assured Benji is in safe hands and is being well taken care of on his walks. From the pictures and videos Saras provides, it’s clear he’s having the best time! It’s always a joy to receive them! We thoroughly recommend Saras and the excellent service she provides and so does Benji. 😊”

Jess was fantastic when she came to walk our 2 dogs (a 6 year old Beagle and 3 year old Spaniel) for a 3 day period. We found Jess to be highly professional, reliable and consistent with great communication skills. She has a lovely calm demeaner and great skill at build trust with dogs. Our dogs felt comfortable with her immediately, which really put our minds at ease! Jess sent us regular ETA updates, provided us with daily feedback during after-walk handovers and, sent us some lovely pictures of her walks with the dogs. This really made the whole process run smoothly and feel safe and professional. We would highly recommend her as a dog walker and we have already rebooked her services. Thanks Jess you're a star. 🌟
