Why hire a pet sitter?

Safety: You’re going out for the day or you're working really long hours and pets can be mischievous. You never know what they could get into. Plus, a pet sitter checking on your house makes it look like you’re home.

Health: Your dogs get more exercise. Staying at home is a lot less stressful and anxiety inducing for you and your pets.

Peace of Mind: Knowing your pet is being taken care of at home when you’re not able to is a pretty great feeling. They’re comfortable in their own home, having fun and getting exercise.

Most people would not want to leave their puppies too soon after their arrival into your home. However, life happens, and the odd emergency or pressing appointment means that you will have to seek an alternative care situation so that your puppy is not left alone.

If you know that you will have to spend time away from your puppy in the early stages, you should plan to introduce him or her to a reliable pet sitter, to get them accustomed to the situation when you cannot be there.

At Furry Best Friends we would arrange initial short 10 or 15 minute visits with your puppy, gradually increasing the amount of time. This approach is less of a shock, it also gives us a chance to bond with your puppy and make them pleased to see us and content in our company.

If you're going on holiday and leaving your pet, or you get called away for a few nights it's important to ensure your pet is cared for whilst you are away.

While some cats can be independent and aloof, others are friendly and sociable. If your cat enjoys human company and likes to play, a cat sitter can fulfil their attention needs. Animals are as prone to loneliness and isolation as we are, so a cat sitter is a must for cats that need human interaction!

With the best will in the world there is only so much you can fit into one weekend. You've got a stack of jobs around the house to be done, food shop, the kids cross country, rugby game or a children's birthday party. There is just no time to take the dog out on a weekend adventure.

Give Sally a call on 07932 820764 and we can arrange a lovely 3 hour 1:1 walk for your dog. We have an endless list of woodlands, beaches and streams to explore.

Do dogs get bored? Absolutely! A bored dog will make his own fun. And most likely in ways that don’t work for you. When left to their own devices, bored dogs will chew furniture and shoes, shred pillows, or even unroll your toilet paper. Whatever they can find to pass the time. And because you’re not there to stop them, it’s even more exciting.

Big messes when you get home are a clear sign of a dog with nothing to do.

I can help you with this. I can offer you a 30 minute or 60 minute walk for your dog or maybe just a home visit for a fuss and play.

Do cats and dogs really fight like cats and dogs? They are often portrayed as the worst of enemies, but is that always the case? It has taken a little bit of time and human intervention, now our cats and dog have learned to tolerate one another and perhaps even love each other a little bit...😻🐶

Today's world is hectic. We work long hours and we juggle family life and many responsibilities. We find ourselves caught up at work and always running late, then add a dog, waiting at home lonely and frustrated into the mix.

Furry Best Friends can help you relieve this stress, we can visit your dog at home, ensure they are fed, fussed and taken out to the toilet and walked.

We used to see dog walkers as a luxury service. With the hectic lifestyles we lead those times have certainly changed. Nowadays, people are more aware of both the needs of a dog and the wide variety of reasons to hire a dog walker.

Does anyone else ever get broody about animals? I have been asked to look after some adorable puppies soon😍. Which has prompted me to dig out some shots of when our Springer Spaniel Rosie was a puppy.😍
Show me some pictures of your gorgeous dogs as puppies. 🐶🐾

We take the time to plan suitable walks and care tailored to yours and your pets needs.

• We are insured with PetPlan Sanctuary
• We are DBS checked
• Transport – clean vehicle and suitable dog crates, we will never leave your dog alone in a vehicle.
• Schedule and time - we will agree an appropriate walking time for your dog.
• Treats and food - we agree with you what’s appropriate for your pet.
• Other dogs - we discuss whether solo or group walks are suitable for your dog.
• Walking safety - on and off lead walking is agreed with you, including muzzles and anything else your dog requires to make a walk safe, comfortable and pleasurable for them.
• Communication - we keep you up to date (with prior agreement) with pictures and updates on your pet during their walk and throughout the day if we are providing you with a sitting service.

We will walk your dog for you come rain or shine. Each dog gets a lovely rub down with a clean personal towel so that they are delivered home to you mud free!

We pick the best walking routes to ensure your pet's can run around, explore and socialise in beautiful surroundings; from rolling hills to woodlands, streams and beaches. We mix the routes up each time to keep it interesting.

My aim is always to give your dog the safest and best walk possible.

Welcome to Furry Best Friends! We provide a dog walking and pet sitting service in the North Devon area. My name is Sally Donnellan and I love animals. I decided to set up Furry Best Friends so that I can care for your dogs and pets when you can't.

I offer a range of services from solo dog walks for dogs who like that 1:1 walking experience to group walks for dogs who love to socialise. I can also offer home visits for cats and dogs. Please see my flyer with a full service list below.

Do get in touch for a chat and we can discuss your pets specific needs. Looking forward to hearing from you and meeting your fur babies!
