⭐️ Big News! ⭐️
I’m super excited to finally let you all know that two lovely new faces are joining the PAW team!
This means that we’re back open for all house sitting services, will now be offering solo walking, and have even more space for pop-ins 🎉
I am so excited to introduce to you Jayne and Zoë! It has been a long time in the making trying to find someone I trust completely to work alongside my business, after all it is my pride and joy. Both Jayne and Zoë are two incredibly kind individuals, who share the same passion for pets as I do. They’re going to be such a wonderful addition, and I hope you will love them as much as I do! ❤️
With the team growing, we’re also making a few small changes to help things run smoothly:
💰 There’ll be a price update which can be found on the website linked below. (This will only effect sitting, solo walks and pop in services)
🗓️ 25% deposits will now be needed for big bookings (such as house sits, or extended pop-in bookings)
⏰ And there will be a 24-hour cancellation fee on all services (full payment will be due if cancelled with 24 hour from the service start date).
I will also be working on refreshing all of my regular dog walk client forms over the next few weeks, to ensure all information is up to date. These have been updated to online forms so I won’t need to drop off/collect anything, and hopefully are straight forward for everyone!
My website has also had a revamp, so you can now send availability enquiries through here, view pricing, and meet the team!

And as always, thank you so much for your continued support, I honestly couldn’t do it without you ❤️
To answer some questions:
Will there be any changes to upcoming bookings?
- No, current 2025 bookings with myself will not be altered in anyway. Any changes will be in place for all future bookings. You will always be aware of who is caring for your pet.
How can we get in touch to book with the new team?
- When you whatsapp or message this page you will always be in contact with myself. Once any bookings are confirmed, I will put you in touch via whatsapp with the right team member. I will still be responsible for bookings, forms, payments, and behind the social media.
Will we meet the new team before using their services?
- Upon booking with a new team member, you will be asked to fill out forms again, as well as be offered a free meet and greet. This is for ALL bookings, whether you’re a new client or old.
Why the pricing changes?
- My pricing is reflective of other providers in the area. Unfortunately starting out, I set myself up with incredibly low prices, and it’s been a challenge bringing them up to average. This fresh new pricing list is matched with others, whilst still giving you competitive rates alongside our usual high standards!
Are the team insured?
- All of the team are DBS checked, first aid trained and insured.
Will you still be involved in the business?
- ABSOLUTELY, I am not going anywhere! I’m simply expanding, adding some fresh new faces, and allowing more flexibility with regard to availability and services. I will always be just a message/phone call away.
Are group walks changing?
- Nope! These are continuing as normal and with myself. I am currently running 2 groups a day, this won’t change. If you book a house sit through us, your pup may occasionally even still join their friends on some group walks for no extra fees.
Are there any changes to house sitting?
- Nothing major. I will still be implementing the ruling that a dog must be able to manage 4 hours home alone, unless discussed otherwise when booking. This is because of the team’s other commitments, bookings and needing time to pop to the shops or home etc. House sitting still involves all aspects of care covered, and the overnight presence of someone in your home. We will also be covering a larger area for this service than previously.
If you have any more questions, as always, just drop me a message. I’m happy to help.
Jayne will be available full time for Overnight House Sitting, Solo Dog Walking, Pet Sitting, and Pet Pop-ins.
Zoë will be available, alongside her current employment, for Overnight House Sitting, Pet sitting and Pet Pop-ins.
