Kerry's Friendly Dog walking service Hi and welcome to my dog walking page. My name is Kerry and i have been the proud owner of Kerrys friendly dog walking service for nearly 10 years.

My love for animals started at a very young age, going back to when i was a child, we had two rabbits, a hamster, a cat and a dog. Growing up in my early teens i was always spending my spare time walking friends and neighbours dogs! I moved to maldon in 2009 along with my family and our two staffordshire bull terriers, Buddy and Roxy, (sadly now gone to doggie heaven) and currently have 3 furbabies Polly Nala and Shelby, who come to work with me most day. Now this is where it all began! My children were at school and i wanted a job that i could fit around school hours, i decided i would maybe volunteer at a dog rescue centre, but my husband advised me that maybe this wasnt a good idea as i would be bringing the dogs home with me! So, my second idea was to start my walk own dog walking service. My first client was a elderly lady called Delia, who owned four dogs, Molly Rhea Buddy and Boss I would collect them at 9.15 moday to friday and take them to the local park for an hours walk. From then on my business just grew, and here i am 10 years later still loving my job, i am so lucky that i get to spend my days doing something i enjoy most, and having so much fun! I have a diploma in canine body language along with a pet first aid qualification, i am also DBS checked and am fully insured too.

I've been noticing more and more of the younger gen advertising dog walking services to earn a bit of extra pocket money.

I genuinely admire the initiative. It's lovely to see young people wanting to get out, be productive and earn their own money. But I do think there's an important conversation to be had about the risks involved.

Dog walking isn't as straight forward as it might seem. Insurance, handling different breeds and temperaments, recognising warning signs, and dealing with unexpected situations are all things that need serious consideration. Even the most well behaved dog can react unexpectedly, and the consequences can be frightening.

I've been dog walking for 17 years and I'm not trying to discourage young people from earning money, and I certainly don't want to take away from their enthusiasm. But I do think we need to recognise that when it comes to taking responsibility for somebody else's dog, good intentions alone aren't enough.

Please think carefully before offering or accepting dog walking services. There are real risks involved, and the safety of our dogs and ourselves must always come first. 🧡🐶

Nothing beats seeing happy tails, wagging bottoms and dogs enjoying their time outdoors! ❤️🐶

Every walk brings a new adventure, plenty of sniffing and lots of lovely moments.
