As a Dog Walker based in South Bristol, I offer a range of pet care services. Primarily; I am happy to take your dog out on 1 or 2 hour long walks a day.
If you need me to look after them longer then I am happy to collect first thing in the morning and drop back later in the evening.

Jake takes our mini Schnauzer, Wallis, for walks, and I recommend his service highly. He's really dog-focused, and Wallis is always overjoyed to see him. She's tired when she gets back, a sure sign that she's had a good walk, and Jake is always reliable and flexible, and his rates are reasonable. More...

Have been using Jake's service for about a year now and can honestly say he is excellent. Jake walks our dog around mid day and for a one hour session he is usually out for 2 to 3 hours door to door. Prices are very reasonable and better rates the more frequent the bookings are. More...

Jake is a great dog walker. Misty is always worn out when she returns from their adventures. He has remained flexible even when we moved out further towards edge of bristol. He treats misty like a queen and I know she had the best time as she reacts so adoringly whenever he comes. I would recommend Jake he shows patience and understanding and helped train our dog from when we first got her. Thanks so much Jake. Mistys second family! More...

I’m so pleased to have found Jake - he’s great with my flattie Finn! Enthusiastic, reliable and clearly has a wonderful way with dogs. Highly recommended!

Jake is sensitive and caring with our two dogs - they are very excited when he comes to take them out... they know that they'll be having lots of good fun. Jake has a real ability to calm them down and is unfazed by their antics. Jake has sat for us when we're away, too; he has been reliable and responsive. More...

Bay loves going out with Jake and the pack - couldn't recommend the service more - always great to know your dog gets proper exercise on the days you can't do it for them. Thanks Jake!

Jake has looked after Ziggy for a year. He is calm, professional and completely reliable. More importantly Ziggy just loves him and 'howls' when he leaves! So good to know your dog is in such safe hands and that he is going to have lots of doggy fun........ More...

I only recently found Jake and his service - what a delight! He is totally reliable but most importantly is excellent and passionate about what he does. Bay (my dog) is always well exercised after his walks but I also get the satisfaction of knowing that she has played and socialised with other dogs too. I would highly recommend Jake to any dog owner who wants their dog well looked after when not at home. More...

Jake looked after our dog Lenny for three and then two days a week for over a year from when Lenny was a pup. Lenny really loved Jake (and vice versa) and was a very happy and healthy dog spending time with Jake and the other dogs. He got lots of love and exercise and Jake helped to make Lenny the well behaved dog he is today! Jake was always very reliable, well organised and a pleasure to deal with, and I wouldn't hesitate in highly recommending Oof Woof Walkies. More...

What do you love most about your job?
I suppose the best part about my job is the fresh air, an sunshine. But the beautiful company I keep all day help make it the best job I've ever had.
It still feels like I've died and gone to heaven. Even when its gale force winds and raining sideways. Still beats digging a ditch or roofing.... =)
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was inspired by the dream of being in control of my own company and clients. The beautiful idea that my clients would appreciate my hard work every day. Also that I wouldn't have to break my back everyday just to barely make a living.
I never believed in myself enough that I though it would be possible. If I'm completely honest; it too losing everything; all of my confidence and self esteem to finally ask for the help from the Job Centre to get me started.
It was within the first few days I knew I was never going to regret it or look back.
Why should our clients choose you?
I used to think that I had a affinity with dogs and could communicate on a deeper level.
Now I realise it is probably that I just trust dogs and they can trust me immediately, I see them as small people with different issues and easier to read body language.
I think that one to one I can create a bond faster than people with no dog skills. So I'm not saying I have any special skills I just feel comfortable around them and haven't met a dog I couldn't get along with.
