Too many pics, not enough time 😅

Once again, fallen behind with posting (oops!). I’ve been super busy lately preparing to move house next week (and will have to do it all over again 2 weeks later!)

Here are last month’s supawstars!!! ⭐️

Ruby, Loki, Henry, Pip, Rolo, Rosie, Freddie, Midnight, Bertie and Gigi 🐾

Fear is the easiest things to condition in dogs and the hardest to resolve. Fear can come from many places, many of which we don't control. This infographic is my most downloaded and shared resource. In fact, many vets and Veterinary Behaviorists use this handout with their own clients! Link in first comment to grab your own copy.

Any of my clients fancy being a supawmodel for the day? 🐶📸

⭐️ Doggy Models Wanted! ⭐️

Fancy letting your dog have it’s day?

We have a photography project underway that we would love for you to be part of!

We are holding a promo photography shoot in Exmouth, Devon and we are looking for some of our community to be involved.

A couple of things we need 👇

Be able to travel to Exmouth, Devon with your dog on the 10th August.

We are open to all breeds… however… if you had a PUPPY we would LOVE this!

To get involved, please email [email protected]

PS - we may get more people willing to take part than we need, so please accept our apologies in advance if we can’t have everyone there.

The happiest little lamb despite looking like a different dog in the rain yesterday! 🐑💕

Look at this face! Despite the weather he's still grinning, and of course he is because he's out with his favourite person, Sarah of Pets Ahoy Plymouth who also takes the best photos!

Reasons to smile… puppies + rainbows 🐶🌈

𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐖𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐑𝐓 🔥

Keeping an eye on temperatures this week, particularly Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon where it’s forecast to reach 24c 🥵
If I feel it is too hot, I will cancel walks or change to drop-ins where possible, especially for dogs that are more at risk of heat stroke.
Your dogs’ welfare and safety is my main priority and we can always find different ways to have fun!!

Today, two members of the Pets Ahoy crew (and both Puppy School graduates!) met for the first time: Rolo and Pip!

Safe to say it was a success! I knew these two would be a great match in terms of playfulness and it was so sweet to see how excited they were to have a new playmate 🐶

Bertie’s Big Day Out ☀️

Thought I’d make the most of the weather and venture a bit further out today with Bertie to Mount Edgcumbe and safe to say he’s had the best time!!

07/06/2024

First two weeks as an award winning dog walker and we’ve had some beautiful weather lately!! 💛

There’s no better feeling than seeing how excited the pups get to see me each day, ready to take them on a new adventure! 🐾

(Head to Instagram for the version of this post with cute videos!) 🥰

That’s my bestie!! 👏

Now, I know creepy crawlies aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, but Rosie and Sam are highly dedicated to educating people on invertebrate welfare and put time and love into each enclosure they design. 🪲🪳🕷️

Well done guys! A very well deserved win! 🏆💜

Totally unprepared speech as I really wasn’t expecting to win anything. I think I managed to keep it together pretty well though despite how taken aback I was!
Thank you so much again for all the support and lovely words. This recognition really means a lot 💜

Still buzzing from last night after winning the “Highly Commended Dog Walker of the Year” Award at the Animal Star Awards!!

It was nice to put on heels and a dress for a change rather than wellies and waterproofs!

Thank you so much to whoever nominated me and for all the support from my clients. I am so lucky to be doing what I love and to have my efforts recognised so highly.

Being a dog walker is so much more than “just walking dogs”. You are being trusted with someone’s family, helping nervous dogs feel safer and more confident in the big scary world, and for many you are the highlight of their day. Aside from that there’s also all the admin and replying to messages late at night because we are just one person trying to do it all at the end of the day, but I wouldn’t change it for the world.

Three years ago, I saw my first doggy client, after missing having a dog of my own, not knowing how much the business would grow. Since then, I have built some wonderful client relationships and each animal is special to me in their own unique way.

To many more years of success, hopefully!!

As if we’re halfway through May already & I’ve only just gotten round to posting my April favourites (oops!)

Again, this was so hard as I had so many cute photos to choose from! 🐶🐱
