Me - Steph Davis

Steph Davis - Owner operator

My passion for animals small and large began as a child spending all my summer holidays with my aunt at her kennels, cattery, grooming parlour and livery yard. Having grown up with horses, dogs, stick insects, gerbils and doing an Equine Studies degree I really do love all animals great and small. After a 17 year career in the financial services sector I decided to turn my love of animals into a business venture to help others with a similar passion for pets.

My corporate background means I have great attention to detail and believe in exceeding customer expectations so you can be assured I will look after your pets' every need as if they were my own. The business is owned and operated by me personally so your dog will be happy and safe in my hands only.

I am DBS checked, fully insured, have completed some BHS exams, a Canine psychology and training course, am IMDT Level 3 Learning, Motivation and Reinforcement qualified and am canine first aid certified.

Dog Walking

Dog walks are great fun and provide physical and mental stimulation for the total wellbeing of your pet.

Each walk is at least 40 mins and I will include some of your dog's favourite familiar walks. It goes without saying that your pets paws will be cleaned and their water bowl filled and tummy's fed (if necessary) before I leave.

I will even pick up your post and open the curtains if you had a morning mad dash!

Group walks - fun walks with friends, if your dog is a social animal and loves playing with other dogs this is the best option for them and your budget. Up to 4 dogs walked at any one time.

Private walks - dogs don't all get on together (as much as we'd love them to) some just think they are humans! Being with lots of other dogs can be stressful so this option allows them to walk alone with their dedicated walker (me) to get the exercise and attention they need in peace and quiet.

We have morning, lunch and early evening slots but can also arrange other times to fit in with your needs. Each walk will be a minimum of 40 minutes unless agreed otherwise.

Dogs will be walked on a lead initially until a close bond is created between myself and the dog for total security. Once the bond is strong, when safe to do so, they can be let loose to really stretch those legs and take in all the countryside smells.

Holiday Help - House / Pet Sitting

If your dog needs a little more attention whilst you're away, the holiday help package can really help take the stress away.

I'll spend each day with your dog giving lots of fuss, fun and love.

This option would include two walks, feed and fuss and overnight stay in your home ideal for holiday cover so your furry friend doesn't need to stay in kennels. You will no longer be in the dog house when you get home!

I will even include a welcome home hamper so you can have a cup of tea and toast when you get back.

Prices

From:

£50 per day (one dog)

£60 per day (two dogs)

Sits less than 2 days subject to £100 minimum charge.

Prices on application for other animal combinations and may vary depending on your location.

Home Visits - Dogs and Cats

Sometimes all your pet needs is a friendly face to check up on them during the day and to let them out to do their business (whilst you do yours!). Together with you I will plan the days and times you would need me to go and check up on your pet.

Ideal for puppies/ kittens who need to eat, sleep, play, repeat or your older pet who just cant walk that far anymore.

Prices:

From £8 per home visit unlimited amount of pets, 30 min visit.

Added Extras

Birthday treat - Let me have your furbabies' birthday and they will receive a treat then and on other significant dates.

Horsey Helping Hands

If your boss asks you to work late, or you are unexpectantly delayed or taken ill, I offer a call me service for bringing in from the field, rug change, feed and water £10 per call out.

I can also do a full livery service, turnout, muck out, bring in, groom £20 per day, ideal if you own your own yard or are on a DIY yard for when you are away or just cant get to your horse or pony.

Bring a smile to
your dog’s face.

A fully exercised dog really does bring a smile to their face and will mean you can have the pet you always wanted when you get home, no more unwanted boredom biting, barking or other unwanted behaviour.
