The Crate Escape - Deeside

Been a little quiet on her recently as we’ve been fully booked for quite some time now… aaaand we’ve been on holiday!

Back to the dog walks today though and it was lovely to see all those little furry faces again!

Here’s a few photos from the last few weeks plus a few from a little trip to the new cat cafe we visited. Thoroughly recommend a visit and their warm almond croissant are 👌🏼

We still have lots of space for pet visits so if you are on holiday soon and need someone to check in on your cat/rabbit/hamster/goldfish etc etc, get in touch!

Wet day in the woods for us today! 🌧️🌲

What a great start to the week! 12 miles done with these beauties (and others I forgot to photograph) and only a spot of rain! 🌧️ 🐾

This weekend’s guests! 🐾

First we have little Amy who hasn’t been feeling too well recently but is still the most loving little soul. As a total black cat enthusiast, myself and my daughter were thrilled to get some cuddles with this super soft beauty!

Secondly, Nessa the Romanian rescue has come to stay for the week. She has learning difficulties so needs a little extra care and attention. Fortunately, my doggies are used to her visits so they are more than happy to share their beds with her! 🐾🧡

We thoroughly enjoyed the sun today on our walks! ☀️ So nice not to have rain for a change! Look at their wee happy faces!

With Easter just around the corner, please remember that chocolate is toxic to dogs 🐶❌🍫 Keep your Easter eggs stashed away from your four-legged friends 💛

[Image description: This is an infographic that reads: Chocolate is toxic to dogs. Never give your dog chocolate as a treat. Make sure children and visitors know this too. Never leave chocolate unsupervised on tables or kitchen surfaces. Make sure bins are dog-proof. If you think your dog has eaten chocolate, seek veterinary advice immediately. Symptoms of chocolate poisoning include: vomitting, diarrhoea, excitability, excessive thirst, drooling, changes in heart rate, seizures.]

Hi everyone! I’ve been a bit quiet on here recently as we’ve just moved house 😅 but today, we headed out to Cooper & Cash’s happy place to enjoy the lovely weather! 🌊

After a good long walk and lots of playtime with some new furry friends, we are back home and enjoying a cuddle on the sofa before the new week begins!

I hope you all got the chance to enjoy the lovely spring weather today too! Happy Sunday everyone 🧡

Thank you so much for all your interest so far! Spaces are filling up so if you are in need of a dog walker, please get in touch asap to book. I have lots of availability on a Tuesday and Thursday but the other days are very limited now.

Did you know we do drop in visits too? I’d love to come and keep your pet company whilst you are out (any excuse for cuddles!) If this is something you need for your new puppy or kitten, let me know! Prices start at only £12 😊🐾

Hello to my new followers! 👋🏼

Thanks so much for joining me here. I thought I’d do a quick introduction for everyone so you can know a little bit about me and my family 😊

We are a family of 7! There’s me (Rachael), my partner, Jason, our 2 children, 2 dogs (Cooper & Cash) & our cat named Zucca (Italian for pumpkin! 🎃).

I run my own wellness event business on the side (Slow Living Scotland) and love nothing more than being in nature, travelling, reading, going to concerts and just being with my family. I’ve had pets as long as I can remember. My mum runs the fantastic dog rescue (One Love Dog Rescue Aberdeen) who you may have seen a lot of in the paper recently! She’s an absolute star when it comes to rescuing dogs from all over the world 👏🏼

My too hairy boys are rescues from Spain and are both 8 years old. They are total trouble makers but we cant stay mad at them for long! Cash (white spaniel X) lost his leg a few years ago so is now our very clever tripod. Cooper is a podenco X and loves nothing more than (trying) to hunt in woods and coming home for biscuits afterwards!

Our lovely cat Zucca is my daughter’s best friend and they inseparable. Both enjoy eating snacks while lying in bed, only venturing downstairs to get more food once they’ve ran out! 😂

I am really exciting to be meeting new furry friends soon, escaping the crates and enjoying our beautiful countryside together 😊
