I do puppy visits, to let out, play with, feed and basic training. I feed
clients pets for them when they are away on holiday.
I have three dogs of my own and know most of the walks
in and around Harrogate. I can tailor walks to suit your dog. Older dogs
or dogs recovering from an injury may prefer a shorter walk.
I previously worked in a veterinary practice for several
years and can give medications including insulin injections for pets
with diabetes.
I also look after cats, birds and small mammals including
guinea pigs, rabbits, mice, gerbils and hamsters. I can also look
after small pets at my own home.
Whilst you are away I can switch lights on and off,
open and draw curtains, bring milk, post and newspapers in and
put bins out.
I have subscribed to Harrogate Borough Council's
Professional Dog Walkers Code of Conduct. |
Services Include
It is
essential that all dogs are up to date with all their vaccinations
including Kennel cough vaccine.
Walks
tailored to suit clients needs.
Shorter
walks for puppies, injured or old dogs.
I can
take the dog for a shorter walk and for example with puppies do a bit of
basic training as well.
I walk
small groups of dogs, so I can be in control at all
times.
Dogs are
walked on leads unless written permission given by owner.
In
extreme weather e.g. driving wind and snow or heat wave, I take the dogs
on a shorter walk to make sure they have relieved themselves and then
spend the remaining time playing with them in a suitable area at their
home.
All
dogs will be washed off if wet and muddy, then towel
dried with towels I provide.

Medication
Having worked in a veterinary practice for a few years, and having two dogs on regular medication myself, I realise how important and difficult it can be to give medications for certain conditions eg epilepsy and diabetes within the strict time schedules, especially if working shifts.
I can come and give the pet the medication including insulin injections
on time either on a regular basis or just when you are unable to get
back in time to administer the medication.
