Hello neighbours!

Many people these days find themselves just too busy to get their dogs out for the regular walks they require, or keep on top of those forever-growing gardens. This is where I can come along and help you out!

I am an experienced dog owner myself, and have also studied veterinary nursing, so you know your beloved pet will be in safe, responsible hands. Last year I worked my way around Europe helping out in gardens ranging from little private courtyards through to landscape designing a rural French wedding venue.

During my travels I spent 2 weeks living and working at an amazing dog boarding facility in Switzerland, walking the dogs and tending to their large section. The family who ran the facility have provided a reference letter I can share with you.

Price by negotiation depending on work required and hours. Call or message me for a chat to see if I am the right person for your pooch or garden needs :)

Cheers,
Emma
