So much to do, so little time!

Life seems to be getting busier and busier, with no signs of slowing down! Thankfully though, we have our four-legged friends; they ease our stress and keep us grounded. They need to de-stress too, with plenty of mental and physical stimulation. With longer commutes and working hours than ever, it's not unusual for even the most responsible dog owners to struggle to find time to devote to their furry friends. Let us take care of a regular exercise and play routine for your family pet so you can enjoy all the benefits of sharing your home with one. We can even help with reminders for important appointments, and more!

Why should I hire a dog walker or sitter?

Maybe you're tired of having to rush through traffic at lunch time or after work to let your dog out for a toilet break. Maybe you're tired of coming home after a long day with your hands full to be greeted by your furry friend bouncing off the walls! Maybe you've had an injury that means you're unable to walk your dogs together or for as long as you'd like, or even at all. Maybe you're going on holiday and, instead of shipping your dog off to the kennels, you'd just like somebody to pop in and feed them, play with them and let them out, or even to keep them company overnight. There are many reasons you may be considering hiring a dog walker or sitter, but whatever the reason, there's a service for you.

What should we get out of hiring a dog sitter or walker?

  • Your dog should maintain a healthy weight - and live longer for it!
  • Your dog should be calmer and better behaved 
  • Your dog shouldn't get injured as much, or at all, thanks to their new strong muscles
  • Your dog will be grateful for some engagement and playtime in the middle of a lonely day
  • Your dog will also be grateful for the toilet break - as will their bladder and kidneys!
  • You should be able to relax more whilst you're out and about knowing that your dog has their needs met
  • You should be greeted by a much calmer dog when you get home - no more bouncing off the walls!
  • You should feel more confident taking your dog places, knowing they are used to new people, animals and surroundings
  • You can free up an extra few hours a week to do other things
  • You don't have to keep track of veterinary and other appointments - we will!
