Dog Walker, Pet Sitter and Experienced Former Vet Nurse
Welcome to Leads and Trails - East Lothian! Run by a fully insured, former veterinary nurse with 10 years experience working at the University of Edinburgh Hospital for Small Animals. I’m Kerry - in addition to my nursing qualifications I’m also an experienced pet sitter and dog walker. Due to the time I spent helping animals recuperate over the years I have developed a particular interest in walking with dogs who may have more challenges than others when it comes to getting out and about. This could possibly be due to amputation, chronic arthritis, or other age-related difficulties. With Leads and Trails - East Lothian, I look forward to walking with dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages and abilities - either able bodied or slightly less so! I’d be happy to discuss your dog’s exercise requirements on an individual basis and build their walks around those needs.
I also board dogs in my own home. My husband and I live in lovely Aberlady in East Lothian. We have a fully enclosed garden and lots of lovely walks nearby. While at our house your dog would live with us as though he or she was our own family pet. Your dog would be our only guest (unless of course you have more than one dog, in which case we’d be happy for all them to stay if you wished) so would get our sole attention. We provide food and water bowls, blankets, towels and toys - naturally you are welcome to provide your own items if you would prefer. In my experience dogs are more comfortable in their own beds so I would ask that if possible you bring this, along with dog food for the duration of your pet’s stay. I’ll provide you with regular updates, photos and videos so you can be assured that your dog is having a great time “on holiday”. I look forward to hearing from you!
