Hi there,
I'm Dave (DJ) and I grew up in the picturesque countryside of Ribblesdale in Yorkshire, where my family had numerous pets including three wonderful dogs.
I have recently retired, after dedicating many years to a well known British Telecommunications company, this has given me lots of (too much!) free time. I was wondering what to do next when a dog owning friend of mine suggested I turn my love of animals and walking into a profession, and several months later here I am!
My family and I are passionate about the outdoors, and we relish the opportunity to explore the hills and moors, no matter what the weather. Currently, we don’t have a dog, but we do have a very cute rabbit called Honey, who isn't too keen on dogs or cats!
I often take out dogs belonging to friends and neighbors. I enjoy the companionship of our four-legged friends during walks, and it provides a helpful service for those who are busy. We also care for our neighbors cats and small animals when they are away.
I have had many pets over the years including dogs, cats, mice, chickens, ferrets, budgies and fish! I have a deep love for all animals and feel a special connection with them, my wife often teases me for chatting with all the dogs, cats and various farm animals we encounter on our daily wanderings!
-Dog Walking & Home Visits-
I am happy to walk dogs of all sizes and ages and are able to give them my full attention as I prefer to only walk dogs on their own (not in groups). I am very happy to collect and return your dog from and to your home or walk them in your locality
I would look to do a free 'meet and greet' when meeting your pets for the first time. Where I will ask you to fill out a few information forms that include several questions about your pet. These will cover your pet's habits, dietary regimen, exercise routine, medical history, and any specific needs. This information will help me provide the best possible care for them
