Does my dog need to be vaccinated?

Does my dog need to be neutered?

No, your dog doesn't have to be neutered for pet sitting or dog walking.

Can I see what my dog is up to?

Of course, we can send regular texts or emails with photos of what your dog is up to during their visit.

Are you qualified to look after dogs?

The owner, Jo Wheeler BA (Hons), PgDip, FdSc (canine behaviour) is fully insured and trained in dog first aid and handling. Jo has had years of experience looking after and training dogs. She works at various training clubs and is a committee member at the Reading & District Dog Training Club.

What is a typical visit?

A visit involves a combination of a walk, play session, training and treats, with lots of fuss and attention. If you want your dog to follow a specific routine please let us know!

Of course, although we have plenty of comfortable dog beds and fun toys you are welcome to bring your dog's own luxuries.

My dog is on medication / special diet

No problem, just explain this on your booking form and we can discuss your requirements.

My dog doesn't like walking in a group

No problem – we can arrange solo walks and ensure that your dog gets plenty of exercise and fun without mixing with other dogs.

Do you collect the dog from home?

Yes collection and drop off are included in the price.

Do you need house keys?

We can hold a copy of your house keys if we are walking or pet sitting regularly. This provides a great back up, should you be delayed at work, need someone to visit or check on your loved one or simply let you back into your house if you have locked yourself out.
