Dog Walking Vale of White Horse

“Nadia has been walking Kobi for about month She has been really patient and understanding with all our needs. As a rescue Kobi comes with some sensitivities and reactions. Nadia has been kind and gentle with him. She is quick to respond to messages and reliable. She has helped us out at short notice and has a good understanding of dog behaviour and is willing to accommodate Kobis needs which is a lovely quality that we really appreciate. Kobis much more than 'just a dog' to us and she's been sensitive reassuring and non judgemental . Thankyou Nadia. So glad we found you”

“I don’t understand why she marks everywhere outside, would have thought it’d stop after she was spayed but got worse. She’s not her full self at the minute but we are giving her leg another week on different painkillers and reviewing next Monday. Thanks Cluny!”

About: I live in Abingdon with my husband and our two children, and we share our home with our adorable dog, Coco. She is well socialised and loves meeting and playing with new friends. As a family, we enjoy getting out for walks both locally and in the nearby countryside. We are a dog-loving household, and I would be a caring and responsible sitter for your lovable pooch. I am a teacher so available half terms and holidays. Please do check in as I usually have longer holidays than state schools. Our days consists of outside time in our garden and at least 2 walks. Lots of cuddle time in-between, of course. We have a fenced garden which is very secure. I aim to keep to your dog’s feeding and walking routine with lots of love and attention given.

About: Hello, You can be assured your furry friend will be looked after very well. I've grown up with lots of furry friends and have always been surrounded by dogs, cats, fish, chickens, ducks, geese and a whole host of furry pals. They are beautiful animals with souls of their own and I try to understand their 'silent' communication with us. While I care for your furry pal, give them comfort and make them feel relaxed, content and exercised, you can go on holiday safe in the knowledge they will be looked after. IMPORTANT NOTES: New clients: I only accept house-sitting bookings for 7+ I can walk your pals, but need a regular booking not just a one-off 1 or 2 day house-sitting bookings are not possible. I need to justify the mileage to your home and back. Included in the daily fee (which works out to be £1.66/hour over a 24hour period), I will take your dog for a daily walk. They must be 'good on the lead' - i.e. no pulling (as I'm an older lady and my wrists hurt!). DOG WALKING AND DROP-IN REQUESTS I do take dogs for walks and do drop-ins, the house/pet sitting takes priority. If I'm unavailable for walking, it may be that I'm already booked for a house/pet sit. YOUR HOME I will keep your house secure and tidy, and will leave it as I entered it. I will wash and clean anything I have used and replace any food I may have eaten, although as a general rule, I order a box from a home delivery service for the time I'm with you. All I need is: - a shelf in your fridge - a small space in your freezer - somewhere to write/read I will not take any food from your fridge or cupboards, however, if an emergency happens, I will replace anything that I take. SPECIAL NOTE: Please do not expect: Dog /pup training - although I do play with your dog! Housecleaning or ironing service - although I will keep your home tidy/clean. I will bring real meat (dried) treats and toys with me, so if there's anything your pet doesn't need/want or desire, please let me know. I only bring authentic, real meat (dried) treats and biscuits - NOT smackos, bonios or raw hide. I have created a YouTube channel, Guardian4Dogs, and upload my own videos of my stay with your pals. Will upload without personal details, my experiences with house and pet sitting: Please note your booking with me begins at 11am and ends at 11am. If you would like me to end 2hours or more later than 11am on the final day, there will be a percentage charge that reflects the additional hours. I do not offer services from my own home-sitting facilities. Your pet is in trustworthy hands and their care is important to me. For this reason, please leave me: - a schedule of your dog's day (time they wake up and go to bed). - a list of things your pet needs, vets details and a neighbour's details. - a list of words that your pet knows, so that I can communicate best with them. - a list of foods that your pet does and does NOT eat, so that their stomach isn't upset by new foods or treats.

About: I have been a dog owner since my early childhood. I have experience looking after puppies as well as senior dogs. I currently have a very energetic dog that requires lots of walks. She is very friendly and misses a lot her companion, our dachshund that passed away last year. I am in full time employment, however I work from home twice a week, Mondays and Fridays. I am also available for dog walks and pet sitting most weekends. I can house and pet sit or do drop in visits as and when needed provided it is within a driving distance and detailed instructions are provided with regards to pet care if your pet has custom requirements.

About: I’m a huge animal lover and since the age of 4, I have always had one or more dogs in the house. I have experience in training my own dogs at home and out on walks. I’m currently at university and also working part time so this would fit perfectly into my spare time and be a great break from my uni work. If you decide you’d like me to stay for a few days then I’d be able to work from home on these days! In my home we have a fenced off garden and a large area for the dog/dogs to run around in. We have lots of walking routes and fields local but I’m also happy to take the dogs to different locations out of the area too!

“Clare has been amazing with Jolene who is a rescue and can be a little unsure of people at first. She has really come out of her shell on her walks with Clare! Thank you 😊”

About: I have had and loved dogs for all my life. From having just finished my rowing scholarship in the USA, I now want to delve into my other passions which is working with animals and animal care. My family has had purebreds from Rhodesian Ridgeback’s, Labradors, West Highland Terriers to rescues (that obviously are a whole range of breeds). We currently have two Romanian rescue dogs, Tora and Finn. They were both one year old when we got them and both had traumatic pasts. It has taken around a year for both of them to feel more settled and comfortable doing most things like even getting into a car. Thus, I have experience with dogs who have had a rough beginning. I am an active person and love going on hikes, jogs and camping trips with them. My favorite thing is to see any dog running around, tails up, happy and knowing I’m giving them a fun, adventure filled life that they deserve. I am available at the weekdays and weekends for walking, dog sitting and drop in visits. I am able to do longer hikes or jogs with your dogs too (if they are younger or high energy). If you leave them with me, they will have a great time, get some treats and will most likely come back to you tired and ready for a nap. I usually travel with my dogs in my dog seat cover / basket on my backseats. I will usually give my dogs treats occasionally throughout the day and probably yours too as well as making sure their water bowl is full. I will always chill with my dog too and play with them when they start getting their energy back. When I hike/ jog with my dogs, it will always be in a safe area and I usually try out new/different trails where I use an extender lead or let them off to explore (but, will obviously do whatever you would feel comfortable with in terms of on/off a lead). I will also adjust where I walk my dogs (or any dog) depending on the weather so, if it is hotter, I will usually walk them near a water source, forest or somewhere with shade. But, if it is cooler, I would more likely go to places like the ridgeway etc… where the sun would be a problem for longer walks. Your dog will most likely get muddy or wet on walks (with the crazy English weather) but, I always use towels to dry/ clean them up

“Emma is great - a real ‘safe pair of hands’ - feels good to know that our dog is in the best of hands.”

Adam C.

“It was such a relief to know I could totally rely on Alina to manage the dog walk while I was away for the day. Wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a teenager. I understand and enjoy their little quirks and personalities. Play with them is the highlight of pet sitting I work from home with flexible schedule so I am happy and available to pop out for a walk any time day or evening :) I can take care of the dog in your house or bring them to mine where I am surrounded by lovely green fields where play and run

About: I’ve always been a dog person: I grew up with terriers and later rescued a collie, so I’m used to everything from cheeky, high‑energy pups to clever working breeds who need plenty of stimulation. I love long walks, playing games, and giving dogs the attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs a fun adventure or a gentle, confidence‑building stroll, I’m here to make sure they have a great time. I have a tiny cat called pepper, and greatly appreciate my wonderful friends that visit her when I am travelling. I am keen to give back and ensure that pet lovers can enjoy their travels, in the confidence that their furry friend is taken care of. I am currently exploring new roles following a recent redundancy. I am available any day or time, but would be particularly thrilled to have some furry company during the day on weekdays. I always offer a meet and greet, to ensure I have all the necessary information, and that you are comfortable leaving your pet in my care.

“Cora took care of the morning walks for our enthusiastic collie for a couple of weeks while we were recovering from covid, and was punctual, communicative and friendly; plus Rylan loved every minute of it. Recommended wholeheartedly.”

“Zoe was a pleasant friendly young lady who was punctual and capable with Hamish. He is looking forward to seeing her at the weekend when she dog sits for us”

About: I have my own dog. I understand dogs' need. I will make sure your dog will receive the care and attention that he or she deserves. I'm currently working part-time, so l'll have two hours to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdavs after 17:30. Thanks I have a fenced garden plus I live next to Victoria Park. I have a car so I can easily transport your dog if necessary.

About: I've had dogs as a child as part of the family and known how important they are to their owner. More recently I have cats (3) and whilst living in Jordan I fostered several cats and found them homes. I'm used to large dogs, elderly dogs and excited puppies and thoroughly enjoy walking them and keeping them company. If you need someone to pop in and check on your furfamily during the day whilst you're away, stay the night or walk them I can help. I'm a teacher so have half terms free for when you may sant to get away. I don't have children so not dictated by this factor either. I'm not offering board at my home. However I will follow whatever instructions you leave since it will be different for each furfamily. Happy to clear litter trays, play with your pets for mental stimulation or take for walks.

About: I’ve been looking after my sisters cockapoo and my friends cockapoo and English bull terrier - either dropping in to feed and let them out or overnight stays when they’ve been away. I love looking after dogs and enjoy going on walks no matter how long. My prices outside of rover are: £35 a day, £40 a night and £14 a walk. So happy to sort payments outside of rover so it’s not as expensive. I am currently working part time so will have a lot of time to play and walk on my days off and even walk dogs before and after my shifts 🙂 I will ensure your pet is fed, walked and entertained as per instructions. Will only take on 1 pet at a time for overnight stays so they can have my full attention and love unless they are from the same household then I am happy with more than 1

“Sophia was great and looked after Alfred beautifully.”

Kate M.

“Alice went above and beyond for all of my dogs walks. Taking into consideration all her needs, and making sure she was comfortable and happy. I will 100% recommend her services and will be rebooking again soon.”

About: I've grown up with cats and dogs at home and I've taken care of pets for friends and family over the years. I love being around them, caring for them and giving them love. I have a miniature daschund myself and he's the sweetest boy. I'd have more pets in a heartbeat if I could. I'd love to take care of your furbabies. It would be my pleasure. I work full time Mon-Fri but there's a lot of flexibility with my job. I can pop out and pop in as needed so caring for your pet is no problem at all. I will follow all your instructions when caring for your pet in your home. You will have daily updates (if preferred) so you can rest assured that all is well with your pets throughout my time with them.
