Hi, I’m Erin your local dog walker. I have worked in health care for the past 15 years and then followed my dreams to work in the pet industry. I own two dogs, Lab - Toby and Tibetan Terrier - Teddy.
I specialise in taking dogs to different locations so that they get plenty of enrichment to tire them out.

Erin has been such a life saver in the last 6 months or so, of us using her service. My 84 year old Mum-in-law came to live with us in December 2024 as my 87 Father-in-law had passed away in the November.
She also brought her little 2½ year old Westiepoo with her which was also very new to us as we had never had a dog. Doreen needed a lot of care as not only was she frail, but had many other health issues and as we had our own health conditions to deal with on to of taking care of Doreen, walking Angus wasn't our 1st priority although we wanted to give him the best life as we did for our Doreen. Erins services have been an absolute Godsend. After finding her through a neighbour Erin would take Angus out 3 times a week initially on the lead for a good long walk with new doggie friends which Angus loved and he soon started being trusted by Erin to just wear his collar on her country walks! She always said what a good and sociable little dog he was and would send us some lovely photos that we could show Doreen who was thrilled to bits to see him regularly having fun!
As time passed, Doreens condition declined but we could still rely on our Erin to take Angus out for us and give him his well deserved exercise & Social time with his other doggie friends & he was always shattered when he got home, ready to have a good sleep.
Doreen was in and out of hospital a number of times but even though we had to leave Angus during hospital visits, Erin would have a key and collect him & drop him off so we could stay with Doreen at the hospital. When Doreen returned home she was receiving palliative care which soon became end of life care but our trust in Erin never wavered and she continued to help with our Angus. When Doreen passed away at the end of May & had her funeral 4 weeks later , when we were struggling to even think about what day it was, Erin took Angus for a walk as we had left for the funeral & on returning home with him sat with him for a while & gave him lots of attention & cuddles - it was so kind & thoughtful of her.
We continue to use Erin on a weekly basis because of many reasons but mainly because she is very good at what she does. Angus obviously loves her & feels safe & confident with her and his other doggie friends when he is out with them all. Thank you so much Erin for all that you do for us xxx

Erin is my dogs favourite person he loves his walks with her and his doggy friends.
I’m full of confidence that he is well looked after and every walk is different and exciting for him.
Erin is a breath of fresh air each day she calls and nothing is too much trouble for her. She’s a trusted friend.

Erin has been walking my boys for coming up to 12 months now and I honestly can’t express how good she is with our dogs. Nothing is too much trouble she always tries to accommodate us where she can. The boys love her and I wouldn’t trust anyone else to look after them like their own as Erin does my boys. Keep doing what you’re doing Erin you’re amazing! . More...

Erin is honestly a godsend to us. We have 3 dogs who all adore Erin. When she comes to the house she is covered in kisses by them (not me 🤣). It's so difficult to find somebody to trust your pets with and we feel so lucky to have found Erin. She walks two of ours weekly and house sits when we go on holiday. This means we can enjoy our time away knowing the dogs are loved and cared for at home. Thank you Erin, we all think the world of you. Xxx More...

Erin walks my reactive and extremely nervous rescue. We tried other walkers but they couldn't even get in the house. He loved Erin on sight.
She has worked tirelessly with me and a behaviourist to learn how to handle him. He adores her walks and visits and I know he is in a safe and knowledgeable pair of hands.
Highly recommend

What do you love most about your job?
I love watching the dogs I walk play and have fun, exploring with them and getting to know their quirky personalities.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have my own two dogs and had a dog walker for them. I always used to be envious of where the dog walker had been and there pictures looked so nice. I was a volunteer at guide dogs in the school for a while (wellbeing volunteer) and used to take them out for a run - i knew after spending some time with the dogs it was a move i needed to make and with a lot of courage its been the best thing i have ever done.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am honest, reliable and trustworthy. I have built up a fantastic reputation within my local dog walking community. I will treat your dog as if it was my own.
Dog walking
1 hour long filled with fun dog walks in various locations (no two days the same) to give the dogs I walk plenty of different enrichment.
I also include scent work on our walks.
Pet sitting (in your own home)
I can come and stay with your furry friend whilst you go on holiday or work away etc.
I will stick to your dog’s usual feeding & medication routine (if needed).
Including in the pet sit is one hour daily walk. I will need to go out to do my regular walks during this time but will be no longer than 4 hours at any given time.
Pet sit dogs must be walked by me on a weekly basis so that we have a solid bond so that your dog will be settled whilst you are away.
Drop in visits
Drop in visits can be bespoke to whatever you need. Puppy visits, cat feed visits, cleaning litter tray. If your pet is injured/post surgery this can be tailored to whatever your need is.
I visit some elderly dogs during the so they can have a toilet break, feed them & of course a cuddle.
