We limit ourselves to four dogs per walker to any one walk maximum.  More often than not our groups are smaller than that and more intimate.  This enables us to bond with each dog and give them all some 1-on-1 care and attention.

Pop-in cat care or small animal care is allocated for a maximum of 30 minutes each visit.

Dog walks are 60 minutes or longer and 1-on-1 dog sitting jobs can be booked from 30 minutes upwards.

Our live-in services are designed where dogs are not left for longer than 3-4 hours.  If you require more 1-on-1 care during a live-in please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Our live-in services for cats are more flexible on timings but our carers are always at your home for periods during the day and evenings plus overnight.

All our services are listed on this website here.

You can also see any additional services we provide listed on the price list.

Walks fall under two categories – group walks or solo walks.  There are three group walks on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday – these walks are morning, lunchtime and afternoon and are charged at our group rate.  All other walks including walks on the weekends and evenings are solo walks and are charged at our solo walk rate.

Groups walks are for sociable dogs to run free and play with each other with their carers.  We walk a maximum of 4 dogs per walker but more often than not these groups are smaller and more intimate.

There are 3 groups walk a day Monday-Friday.  morning, lunchtime and early afternoon.  Any walks booked outside these times are classed as solo walks and are charged as such.

Solo walks are designed for dogs that require more attention, are reactive, in season or are booked outside of the group walk times (e.g. Saturday, Sunday)

For dog sitting no transport is required.  Your carer looks after your pet at your home and if required walks dog locally to you.

For dog walking your dog can be transported in our vehicles to parks or green spaces.  The time taken for transport/pick-up and drop-off are not part of the 60 minute walks.

You will always receive and update after every care visit with your pet.  Our carers will update you (frequently with pictures) on how the visit went.

These updates occur after the visit when it is safe and convenient for the carer to do so.  This may not always be the scheduled end time of the visit/walk etc.
