Sights and Sniffs Dog Walking Walks and home visits to meet your dog's individual needs. Based in Christchurch Dorset. DBS checked and Insured. CPD Pet Sitting and Dog Walking Diploma. Hello!

As a pet owner myself, I know how disconcerting it is having to leave your much-loved pet under the care of others, especially someone you don’t know. I hope telling you a little about myself will help alleviate some fears and offer a little reassurance. My name is Joanna. My life has always been very animal centered, most recently with cats, dogs and horses. I am very passionate about animal welfare, committed to providing the absolute best for all animals in my care. I am naturally a quiet person, friendly, gentle and patient. My previous work has always been in positions of trust. I worked with young children in a pre-school setting for many years, often taking on the role of 1:1 support worker for children with special educational needs. Most recently, I worked as a private cleaner for those who needed a bit of extra help around the home. My decision to take up cleaning was made following the diagnosis of my horses ill health. With my commitment to him as my driving force, cleaning provided me with the flexible hours I required to meet his increased need. I nursed him for 2 years until he sadly passed. The passing of my beloved horse has, in part, fuelled my decision to push forward with my dream of working with animals. So here is Sights and Sniffs!

Remembering Dobby ❤️

Last week we had to say a very sad goodbye to a much loved friend.

Dobby was the sweetest little bean. She was funny, loving and such a joy to be around.

But don't let that cute butter wouldn't melt face fool you though. This girl had opinions and she wasn't afraid to share them - loudly!

'Why exactly have we stopped walking?'
'Where actually is my treat?'
'What do you mean you forgot to bring a toy?!'
Just some of the telling offs I have received from Dobby on our outings, and all of which are cherished!
My week will certainly be far too quiet without her.

Rest in peace gorgeous girl.
You are so very missed and forever loved ❤️

Some of us managed to get out for a quick sniff before returning to the fans and cooling mats. I introduced some new toys and games this week and we've had a great time! 🐾

🌞 How hot is too hot to walk your dog? 🐾

As the temperature rises, so does the risk of heatstroke. Even a short walk on a warm day can be dangerous for your dog.

🐶 Use this as a general guide only.

✔️ Walk your dog during the coolest parts of the day – early morning or late evening.
✔️ Avoid over exercising.
✔️ Always take fresh water with you.

Please take extra care with:
🐾 Puppies
🐾 Senior dogs
🐾 Overweight dogs
🐾 Dogs with underlying health conditions
🐾 Flat-faced breeds such as Pugs, French Bulldogs, English Bulldogs and Boxers

If you're unsure, it's always safer to skip the walk and keep your dog cool at home.
