Dog Walking
I am committed to your dog’s care, happiness, safety and welfare. I offer single household walks or paired walks only with your permission.
As an accredited member of Modern Dog Walkers Association I offer a dedicated dog walking and pet care services in the Parsonage Lane and surrounding areas of Bishop's Stortford.
My car is fitted with a crash tested large TransK9 crate including rear escape doors crate to safely transport your dog.
I walk in a variety of locations from pavement walks, local parks and Birchanger Woods to more exciting adventures out in the surrounding countryside.
I am fully insured to walk dogs and provide limited dog transport services in my car - click the Protectivity logo below to view my insurance.
Home Pet Care
If your dog or puppy is on home rest I can do pop ins to provide comfort breaks, feeding meals, provide enriching activities and sometimes just to hang out with a friendly face for a bit of company and a chat.
I also care for cats, kittens and chickens.
Fully DBS checked.
Canine Health & First Aid Certified -
Practical courses undertaken in person with the wonderful vet Sophie Bell of Animal Love
In my family home along with our resident dog I provide licensed daycare and boarding for dogs. I offer daycare and boarding only for established dog walking clients.
East Herts Council issued my Animal Activities Licence in July 2021 and this has been renewed in 2023 with a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating - Licence number 23/0539/AA.
When caring for dogs from multiple households they must be regularly familiarised with each other beforehand.
We do not offer ad hoc boarding or daycare sessions until we are familiar with your dog.
I require at least one weekly visit or regular weekly walk minimum to ensure familiarity, harmony and to keep all the dogs acquainted with our environment. This helps to ensure when dogs come into our home and for sleepovers that they feel calm, secure and stress free.
All who come to stay in our home become part of the family. We have a comfortable home, an exciting secure garden with a variety of surfaces, levels and areas to explore and access to wonderful woodland walks.
Dogs enjoy exploring, sniffing and running in Birchanger Woods and the surrounding fields which are easily accessible from my garden.
After exercise we all enjoy a bit of rest and relaxation, whilst feeling safe and secure. Your dog can feel at home and snooze in comfort.
All guests will need to be vetted by our resident dog !
I aim to teach dog owners and handlers force free, reward based techniques to train their puppies and dogs, using proven, ethical, and science based teaching methods.
I abide by IMDT (Institute of Modern Dog Training) strict code of ethics, and
I will never use or promote punishing devices or methods such as choke chains or prong collars.
I am part of a supportive network of dog walkers, dog trainers and behaviourists who promote and provide force free training methods.
Please contact me for details.
