Friends For Pets

Friends For Pets Award Winning Dog Walking and Pet Care Services tailored to your pet's needs from a trained, insured, We started in the Cheddar Valley area of Somerset in 2008.

Due to the strong reputation we established we started to get enquiries for our services from further and further afield. With the rapid growth, the founder, Becca Wilson, decided to franchise the business to ensure that standards could be kept as high as possible whilst allowing the business to grow in a more controlled manner. We are now an award winning pet care company covering a large area of

the South of the UK and parts of Wales. Our TauntonTeam was started in 2020 and is managed by Kim, who has been with Friends For Pets since 2018. Our Pet Carers are DBS checked, fully Insured and we have had references obtained for them. New Pet Carers also undergo training in pet first aid, nutrition, behaviour and handling as well as many other subjects through our sister company, The Pet Academy. They also attend in-house monthly training or refresher courses. Unlike some other pet care companies we will not arrive at your home in a marked vehicle, therefore announcing your empty home. For our dog walking services (as with most other dog walking companies) we are insured to walk up to six dogs in a group, but as a company we walk on a one-one basis or much smaller groups to maintain your dogs safety and welfare.

Ambassador of the month AUGUST: Lucy Mills Friends For Pets Friends for Pets Bristol and Brecon. In 2018, when Lucy was looking for day care options for Maisie and Alfie her two miniature dachshunds, she came across Friends for Pets. Lucy still wanted to have a career in Law so has always worked part time in her Law job as well as owning her Bristol franchise. After success in Bristol, Lucy took on an additional franchise in Brecon. By 2021 Lucy was running two successful businesses and working part time in Law! On top of all this professional success, Lucy now has the wonderful gift of beautiful baby girl.

31 poos collected on the strawberry line today!๐Ÿ•

Amy and Emily did a great job of clearing the strawberry line. They have seen a massive improvement from the last time they did poo patrol so we really hope this has helped clear the strawberry line to make it a safer and cleaner space for everyone to enjoy. ๐ŸŒฟ

We are planning to do our next poo patrol soon. If anyone has any areas they would like us to target at our next poo patrol in and around the cheddar area please do let us know!
