About Me/ Company

I offer a reliable and professional dog walking service on a regular or occasional basis, and prefer not to walk dogs in large groups, but treat each one individually. I like to meet owners and dogs to discuss exact requirements, and am happy to hold keys which are kept in a safe secure environment.
The utmost care and attention is given to your pet, and full references are available, together with recommendations from current clients.
I do not employ other dog walkers, therefore my personal time is given to each dog, which provides a continuous relationship with your dog to be formed.
I started my career in the airline industry, where after 11 years I decided to find a 'proper' job and joined a large veterinary practice. My cat sitting business was started at this time, proving to be very popular with the clients during their holidays. After 6 years with the vets I progressed my career further in the hospitality industry, as Conference and Banqueting Manager for a large vineyard, for over 8 years. During this time I continued cat sitting with a regular client base, but having remarried 5 years ago I decided to concentrate on my business and expand into dog walking.

Previous Experience

Having been brought up on a working farm, I have always been involved with animals and have my own dogs and horses.
My dogs are extremely precious to me, and for this reason I take pride in offering the kind of service to my clients that I expect from the person who cares for my animals when I am away.
My experience gained whilst at the veterinary practice together with common sense, reliability and professionalism has earned me a good reputation.

Qualifications & Training

Owning my own dogs all my life and experience working in a large veterinary practice handling various breeds of dogs.
