Why Use a Dog Walker
I think most people would agree that our pets are part of the family, so why not let our four legged family members have the best life possible? A dog walker is not just about getting someone to let your dog out to relieve itself, it is about enrichment. Allowing your dog to be exercised, socialised and mentally stimulated will help your dog use up energy in a positive way.
After welcoming my son in November 2017 I realised just how important it was to have my dog cared for and exercised both mentally and physically while I cared for a newborn. Then on my return to work after maternity leave just having that peace of mind knowing that when I got home there would be no manic rush to get Skye walked. I got to spend the much needed quality time with my son over dinner,then once my son was settled I could go out with Skye and spend quality time with my other child!
I know everyone has different commitments whether it be work, family or social life. I would like to help you by giving you more freedom and peace of mind knowing that your dog will be safe and well taken care of, allowing you to return to a happy and tired dog.
