Home Boarding

Daycare - Also if your at work all day and worried about getting back late, or if your dog is destructive if left for long periods, then why not try our day care service? We will ensure your dog/s have walks and company while your away.

Solo walks

There are many reasons why sometimes it’s best to walk a dog alone and so we choose one on one walks so we can give your dog 100% attention. We take bookings for regular walks and one off or irregular walks which could be due to working long hours, an injury or you just fancy time to yourself.

Benefits of one on one:
  • Fantastic way to tire out boisterous and energetic breeds.
  • Allows your pet to walk at their own speed, more beneficial for an older dog.
  • More suitable for less sociable dogs who prefer their own company.
  • Your dogs receives heaps of attention and quality time.
  • Regular one on one walks will introduce discipline to dogs who are more anxious and easily upset.
What we offer:
  • I will visit your home at a pre arranged time to introduce myself to you and your dog. We will discuss your requirements, expectations and costs.
  • I will collect your dog from your home and return him after a walk.
  • Hour or half hour walks although can be longer if requested and tailored to you and your dogs needs.
  • We provide quality walk time in a stimulating, pleasant outdoor setting.
  • Play time and with the owners consent, time off the lead.

Small groups

We provide a service to walk dogs in a group format and this is limited to a maximum of 3 dogs per walk. If you wish your dog to be included in a group walk please let us know. A discount will apply if more than one pet is from the same family.

Group walks help with socialisation and encourage good behaviour. It's good for your dog to meet different types of dogs and people. It's also great exercise and keeps your dog mentally and physically fit.

Home visits

We provide a half hour home visit. This is ideal if you have a young puppy (from 16 weeks old) or older dogs where a walking service is not suitable. This will include playtime, a roam around the garden or 10 minute walk as well as topping up food/water bowls. We can also give medication if required.

There's no need to rely on neighbours or friends, our professional and personalised home visits will give you peace of mind that your pet is safe and happy while you're at work. Home visits offer a stress free alternative for your pet.

Other animals

This is a half hour home visit. We can pop in to care for your cat, hamster or other small furry friend. We will ensure plenty of food and water is available. Play time in a ball and or cuddles.

Whilst focused on your pet, a home visit will also include watering plants, collecting post and if appropriate closing/opening curtains. All designed to keep your home secure too.

FAQ

This depends on your requirements but prices start from £11 for a 30 min walk/visit.

I have no set area, I love to explore with the help of your pet. I use fields/woodlands but always make some time on pavements to help keep claws short.

Not if on a road or pathway. In a field/park I will let a dog off-lead depending on your pets recall ability. I will only walk off lead with the owners permission and with a signed waiver form.

I wash and towel dry your pet before being let back in.

I am DBS checked, fully insured up to £2,000,000 and I am trained in Dog First Aid. Copies of documentation available upon request.

Please contact me by email or phone giving at least 48hrs notice for no-charge to apply.

I am happy to keep a non identifiable key and if you have a key safe at your property I would use that for access to your key.
