Dog Walking Worcester

“Trusting a stranger with your dog, personally for me , was quite an anxious experience. However, when Julie came round to visit Phoenix, I felt reassured and knew hundred percent that she was the one for Phoenix. Clearly, she has a love for dogs and from the communication I could tell that she had a lot of experience. Julie goes above and beyond and my dog loves going for walks with her. He has a great time and I can see this from the photos. I wouldn’t use anyone else.”

About: I am a reliable and caring dog lover with many years of hands-on experience. I have owned and cared for dogs since the age of 14, giving me a strong understanding of their needs, behaviour, and wellbeing. I offer dog walking and dog sitting services, ensuring your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. I treat every dog as if they were my own and am committed to providing a safe, happy, and trustworthy service. Although I don't currently have a dog of my own, this is mainly due to having a large family and the commitments that come with it. However, I have owned and cared for dogs since I was 14 and genuinely miss having them around. We have also donated to the charity Guide Dogs for many years. Caring for dogs brings me a lot of enjoyment, which is why I offer dog walking and pet sitting services. Part of the week, my blended family stays with their other parent, which gives me plenty of free time, flexibility, and attention to dedicate to caring for pets. This means I can provide dogs with the companionship, exercise, and care they need in a safe and loving environment. I can prioritise walks before and after work and I work from home twice per week where I can ensure pets receive consistent care, exercise, and affection within your home or mine. I am available for walks and check ins, doggy daycare within your home or mine and overnight stays (mainly weekends) where possible. Please connect with me to ask about availability as I can try to accommodate outside of my calendar schedule. I provide a safe, calm, and caring environment for all pets in my care. Whether caring for pets in my home or in the owner's home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medication requirements, and any specific instructions. I ensure pets have plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision, while keeping their environment clean, secure, and comfortable. Building trust with both pets and owners is very important to me, and I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own.

“Due to being unwell I asked Dany whether he could help with a very last minute walk today and he was able to help out! Really appreciate the help!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs since I was 5 years old, within a family revolving around guide dogs. I’ve joined in with training guide dog puppies and taken many dog walks over the years. Now having moved away from home I miss the daily interaction with dogs! I work full time as a physiotherapist but have evenings and weekends free to care for your pets. I live with my partner who has an equal love for dogs and has more time on his hands, so would be keen to help out where needed! I live in a terraced house with a small garden in the centre of Worcester, a very short distance to the river, with many options nearby for areas for your pets to have a good run around!

“Niamh was fabulous! She came to do a meet and greet with myself and Lady, which I thought was great, getting to know Lady and her needs. She was punctual and followed all instructions given to her. Will definitely be booking again ❤️”

About: Hi! I'm Alex, I run my own independent pet care services, and I'm thrilled to be providing my services here on Rover too! I've spent most of my life caring for animals, all of it adoring them, and for the last four years I've also been helping others with care for their pets. Currently I live with four pets, two of whom are medically complex, so I know how scary it can be entrusting your pet to somebody else. Every pet is unique, and I'll always do all I can to make you feel as reassured about their care as possible. I have experience administering medication, working with small mammals and reptiles, and caring for dogs with an array of different needs (including help with separation anxiety) among other things. I'm DBS checked, level 3 pet first aid certified, independently insured and I can provide as many references as you need in order to feel at ease. I offer solo and group dog walking, secure dog paddock enrichment hours, check-ins for cats, small mammals, small reptiles and dogs, and overnight and daytime pet sitting, and if you have a request that's not strictly one of those, I'd be more than happy to work something out with you. If you'd like to arrange a zero-obligation meet and greet or just have a chat to see if we'd be a good fit, please feel free to message me. A little about me - I grew up watching Animal Planet and reading nothing but animal rescue books, had guinea pigs for most of my childhood, and even now my social media is mostly dog training and animal rescue! You can rest assured your pet will kept safe, treated kindly and absolutely doted on in my care. (PS - tell your pet I said hi! ♥) Caring for animals fits seamlessly into my current routine, as I'm free most days and walking the dogs is always one of the highlights! I'm within walking distance of many great natural spaces, and taking your dog along for the adventure would fit in perfectly. Living with two medically complex pets means I know how scary it can be entrusting your pet to somebody else, so I want to know every detail and make you feel as reassured about their care as possible. I work closely with every pet parent to make sure their pet's needs are completely fulfilled and everyone feels at ease. Meeting your pet where they're at is the most important thing to me, whether that's big long walks with lots of play for energetic dogs or simply being a reassuring presence for shy cats.

“Thanks so much. Highly recommended. I felt so comfortable allowing Helen into my home to collect the dog while I was out. Will defo be booking again.”

About: There is a saying that resonates with me quite strongly - our pets are a chapter in our lives, but we are their whole book. Making our animals lives the most fulfilling they can be is very important to me. I’ve had all sorts of pets since the day I can remember. Dogs, cats, hamsters, even gerbils! Looking after pets of any kind brings me a sense of fulfilment, and there isn’t a moment I don’t enjoy. I recently left my retail job, as it wasn’t bringing me fulfilment, and working with people isn’t my forte due to my neurodiversity. As such, I have all the time in the world to spend with your pets, as short or as long as you might need it! Whether you just need someone to walk your pooch, drop in, or stay for a longer period of time, I’ll be there! (Honestly, the longer I can stay with them, the better!) As I currently don’t have the space required for onboarding animals, I cannot offer that as a service. However, during stays to your home, I can offer do anything that would make you the most comfortable. Hourly check-ins via messaging, walks at certain times, and if they need crating or a little training, I’m happy to do that as well.

“Gloria is already comfortable with Leanna on her second walk. She took Gloria on a gentle stroll and is doing a great job of building a bond with her. We are very impressed and have already booked another walk!”

“At short notice due to illness I wasn't well enough to take my cockapoo for a walk today so I booked Maisie H and I'm very great full that she was able to help me out 😊”

Caroline P.

“Super care of my Eliza from Marina, who is friendly and very caring. She’s extremely professional providing updates on each walk, with amount of toilet stops, photos and videos. We very grateful to her for the wonderful care she provided and how she recognised what Eliza needed on each walk. Definitely recommend Marina thank you so very much 🫶🏻”

Paula S.

“Hugo is not used to people in his home but Jennifer has put him at ease very quickly and he is happy to have her walk him. This is reassuring for us while we are out at work to have someone to walk Hugo and give him the exercise and cuddles he needs when we are not able to.”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have grown up around dogs and cats. I’ve cared for multiple Border Collies over the years, including having them stay with me, and I’ve also looked after French Bulldogs and Grey Hounds. I had a Border Collie and a mixed breed golden retriever of my own when I was younger, so I understand how much love, attention and care dogs need. I’ve always wanted a dog of my own, but with my current working hours, I’m not able to give one the time and attention they deserve. That’s why I’ve decided to become a pet sitter — it gives me the opportunity to spend time with dogs, give them lots of love and care, and hopefully give owners peace of mind while they’re away. I’ll treat every pet as if they were my own! 🐾❤️ I work full-time, but I have two days off each week and my days off vary depending on my rota. I’m happy to plan bookings around my work schedule and can dedicate my days off to caring for your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins and I’d also be happy to look after your animals for the full day when needed. I’m very flexible and will always make sure your pets receive plenty of care, attention and love. I am aware that every pet has its own routine and things that they prefer so I’m happy to work around all needs. I wouldn’t let any dog off leash unless it’s safe to do so.

About: Calm, capable, and consistent. I show up on time, send one photo per visit, and trust my gut. I walk at the dog’s pace, not mine. I bag every poop, avoid hot pavement, and never force a scared dog. I choose patience over punishment, and when in doubt, I sit down and wait. I’m not just a walker or sitter — I’m the steady presence their dog trusts while they’re away. I work part-time, which means I have plenty of flexible hours throughout the day to give your pet proper attention — not rushed, not squeezed in. Your pet's safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities — always. I adapt to your pet's routine, not mine. Feeding times, walk schedules, bedtimes — I follow your script so your pet feels minimal disruption. I keep your home secure — doors locked, windows closed, alarms set exactly as you leave them. I'll send you a quick text whenever I arrive and leave. I'm tidy and respectful — I clean up after myself, wipe my feet, wash any bowls I use, and leave your space exactly as I found it (or tidier). No strangers — I never bring guests, friends, or other pets into your home. It's just me and your pet. Emergency-ready — I have your vet's number, your emergency contact, and a clear plan for accidents, escapes, or illness. I also carry a basic pet first aid kit in my bag.

About: I used to look after dogs in my previous home with my family. I now live in my own house and want to continue looking after pets. I love all dogs all sizes and all cats. My parents have 2 cats in the family home and have grown up with cats since I was born and look after theirs regularly too. I’m currently studying my masters at university where I only have lectures on a friday and play football some evenings and on a sunday. Other than that have a lot of free time at the minute 😅 I have a fenced garden. There are no other pets in my house. Space in the house for whatever things they need to be happy

About: I have had a lot of experience with dog and cat sitting before, including dog walks and feeding them, ensuring cleanliness and ensuring to keep them company! Photos may be used on my instagram and facebook accounts for my pet sitting! For more information please contact me🐾 Im at university and work part time however I usually work nights This means I have spare time in the day time and around University. I ensure they are fit and well, and I report any concerns I have about the pets and ensure they are clean and happy. This is such as washing bowls, cleaning litter trays etc.

“Fran is so lovely and wonderful with Miley. We have already booked for Miley to visit again. Highly recommend Fran.”
