August brought the usual school-holiday juggle of family time and work, but we made it! With September here and the kids back to school, we should be back to our regular hours and full capacity
Looking forward to seeing all your furry and four-legged friends this month! 🐎🐕🐈

On International Dog Day today, our hearts are heavy. 💔 This morning, we lost our beloved boy, Ammo, due to internal bleeding caused by renal carcinoma.

​Running a dog-walking business means our lives are devoted to caring for your four-legged family members, and losing our own makes this day especially bittersweet. Please take a moment today to hug your pups a little tighter and enjoy every minute with them. They leave paw prints on our hearts forever. 🐾

As this heatwave continues- ​As dog walkers, safety is our top priority and we don't like guess when it comes to heat safety— so we have purchased new Govee Temperature Monitors, we have them clipped to our dog walking bags 🌡️🐾

​It’s an essential tool that helps us:

​Tailor every walk: Adjust pace, routes, or change to garden visits based on real-time data.

​Stay proactive: Instant alerts straight to my phone if temperatures spike, before, during or between walks so safety measures can be put in place.

​Ensure peace of mind: Data-driven decisions for every pup in my care.

​No room for error when it comes to our furry friends! Investing in the right tech means safer, happier adventures for everyone. 🐕✨

We are so grateful for all the patience you’ve shown us lately. We’re in the process of easing back into work following our son’s accident. Because he needs one of us at home, and to keep everyone safe during this heatwave, we aren't quite back to full capacity yet.
​However, we are happy to help with horses, early morning walks and pop-in visits, so please reach out if you need anything.

For regular customers ​I’ll be sending out texts and invoices for the week before the accident this evening.

Thank you for sticking by us!

To our wonderful customers:
Thank you for the outpouring of love and patience while our family navigates a major life change.❤️

​Hunter is finally home from the hospital. While we are so happy to have him back, we are currently managing his pelvic and rib injuries and colostomy care at home, this requires full-time care and significant adaptations to our home. Consequently, Hunter will be out of school for the remainder of the term, and our business will be running at a limited capacity as we adjust to this new routine.

We will be messaging everyone throughout this week to organize schedules and confirm what our return to service looks like.

​Thank you for being such an incredible support system. We miss you all and look forward to seeing your pets again very soon! ❤️🐕🐈🐴

We’ve had many kind messages asking about Hunter, our son and we wanted to share a quick update.
​Hunter is making steady progress and growing stronger every day at Bristol Children’s Hospital.
He is now allowed to eat and drink but he has a challenging recovery journey ahead.
Ben is home and currently preparing our home environment to support his mobility and care needs for the coming months.
This is a huge adaptation to everyday lives for us all, and as soon as we are able we will begin offering services once again.
But until then ​We are incredibly grateful for the support and understanding we’ve received from our customers.
Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts as we navigate this transition. ❤️
