Dog and Cat Care Services

Whether a one off or a regular treat in Brightlingsea, or dog walking in Thorrington we can be there to walk your dog(s). This is an excellent service for those of you who work long hours and cannot get home to walk your dog as often as you would like. Or you are just not as mobile as you used to be so are now unable to walk your dog.

If you are looking for a dog walker in Brightlingsea my walking service is dedicated to your dog(s). I also offer Dog Walking in Alresford and Dog Walking in Thorrington. I do not walk any other dogs at the same time (unless you ask for a group walk). This enables me to focus on your dogs needs and give them all the attention they so deserve. If you feel that your dog(s) would benefit from socialisation, group walks are available at your request.

My Brightlingsea dog walking service is available for 1 hour and is priced at £12 or half hour from £8.00.

If you have more than one dog in your home there will be an additional charge of £3 per dog.

Cat Feeding

My cat feeding service in and around Brightlingsea, Thorrington and surrounding villages is ideal for those wanting to leave their cats at home while away on holiday. Or you may need this service if you simply cannot make it home in time. Because your cat is in the comfort of his/her own home this service is therefore a great alternative to a cattery.

My cat feeding service is priced at £6 per half hour visit. Long term or ongoing assignments will qualify for a discount.

Pop in Visit

I will pop in and carry out whatever pet service you need including feeding, fresh water, attention and company, toilet breaks or medicine administration. This service can include anything else you want me to do in that time. I can also make your home looked lived in while you are away for example by picking up the post, draw the curtains, turn lights on/off. This service is available in and around all of Brightlingsea and Thorrington.

My pop in visit service is priced at £5.00 per visit, multiple and longer visits can be arranged.

Half Day Dog Day Care

For those of you that would like your dog to have the company of a petsitter for longer than the 1 hour of a home visit, you may be interested in my Half Day Dog Care service. This service includes pick up and drop off from your house and breaks up your dog’s day with lots of interactive walks and attention. Your will be out for a 2 to 3 hour period and come home tired. Services available in certain parts of Brightlingsea and Thorrington, please ask for details.

My doggie day care service is priced £16 for half day care.

Dog Socialisation

If you feel your dog would benefit from a long walk and socialisation with other dogs, I now offer a group walk service. Each session is for 2 hours (including collection and return). This service is ideal for those dogs who love to play with a ‘friend’. I am familiar with all the excellent dog walking places in and around Brightlingsea. During this service your dog is guaranteed a fun and constructive time whilst under my strict control. He or she will also return tired and happy!

My group walk/socialisation sessions are £16 for the 2 hours with each additional dog from the same home half price. For more information and customer feedback please email me.

Dog Psychology

Does your dog have a particular behaviour or phobia that is causing you concern. With my qualification and experience I know how dogs think and communicate and how best to deal with any issues you might have. I will devise a behavioural modification programme for you to implement with my help and guidance. There is no quick fix and this will require your ongoing daily commitment and reinforcement to help you and your dog achieve your desired goal. If you live in and around the Brightlingsea and Thorrington area I can help you resolve these issues!

My dog psychology & behaviour services start at £25 for up to 2 hours.

Dog Advisor

My advisory service is available to those who are thinking about getting a puppy or a adult dog. We can discuss which breed is best suited to your lifestyle and I can answer any questions you might have. I can also give you all the necessary pointers for making ‘your new friend’s’ new home safe and secure. If you have already got your new addition but you need guidance on how best to train, feed and socilalise them I can offer you a tailored programme to help you with this at this very important time.

My dog advisory service is priced at £15 for up to 2 hours.

Home Visit

I will come and spend 1 hour with your pet(s) and dedicate my time specifically to them, I will feed, fuss, walk, play and anything else you want me to do in that time. I can also make your home looked lived in while you are away for example pick up the post, draw the curtains, turn lights on/off. Therefore putting your mind at rest when you are not there.

Key Holding

If you require my services regularly I can keep your key on file for future use. It can also be of benefit for those times when you lock yourself out. All the keys we hold are kept in a locked cabinet when not in use and are not tagged with any personal identification details. Whether you live in Brightlingsea, or Thorrington I can help you with your pet’s requirements.
