Dog walking & sitting · St John's, Worcester

Hi, I'm Sam. I'd love to walk your dog.

I live right here in St John's and I've shared my life with dogs for years. Daily walks, a one-off when you're stuck, day care while you're at work, or a proper home-from-home while you're away.

What I offer

However your week looks, I can fit around it.

Regular slots or last-minute help. Every dog gets the same care and attention I'd give my own.

Daily walks

The same friendly face at the same time each day. Riverside, park or around the block, matched to your dog's pace and energy.

£14per 1-hour walk

Ad hoc walks

Stuck late at work, poorly, or got a busy day? Message me and I'll do my best to pop round, even at short notice.

£16per 1-hour walk

Day care

Drop your dog with me on your way to work. A walk, garden time, a nap somewhere cosy and lots of company until you're home.

Overnight & holidays

Going away? Your dog stays with me and Zaylee as one of the family, with walks, routines kept and photo updates every day.

About me

A neighbour who knows dogs.

I've lived in St John's for many years, and for most of them I've had a house full of dogs. Until this year that meant three of them. Sadly, I said goodbye to two of them this year, both after long, happy lives.

That leaves me with Zaylee, my beautiful Staffy, and a lot more time than I'm used to. So I'm offering it to you: my time, my years of experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments, and a genuine love of looking after them.

If your dog needs a walk, a day out of an empty house, or somewhere safe and happy while you're on holiday, I'd love to help.

Sam

My three together: Zaylee, Zeus and Ziggy. Big personalities, all of them.

Big dogs welcome

Big breeds? XL Bullies? Not a problem.

Lots of walkers turn bigger dogs away. I won't. My own pack was Zaylee the Staffy, Zeus the husky and Ziggy the XL Bully, so strong, bouncy, powerful dogs are what I'm used to every day.

  • Years of handling large and strong breeds
  • I owned an XL Bully myself, so I know the rules: muzzled and on a lead in public, every time
  • Big dogs walked solo or matched with calm company

Day care & stays at my home

Cared for at least as well as they are at home.

When your dog stays with me, this is where they'll spend their time.

Fully secure garden

Enclosed and checked, so dogs can sniff, play and potter safely off the lead.

Covered terrace

Fresh air even when the Worcester weather isn't playing along. Dry, sheltered and comfy.

Warm, friendly inside

Soft beds, quiet corners and a sofa if that's what they're used to. A proper home, not a kennel.

Getting started

Three easy steps.

1

Meet & greet

I come to you, free of charge, to meet your dog and hear about their routine, quirks and favourite things.

2

Trial walk or visit

A short first walk, or a trial afternoon at mine with Zaylee, so your dog can get to know us.

3

Book in

Set up regular days or just message me when you need me. I'll send a photo after every walk.

Where I walk

St John's and just around the corner.

I mainly cover St John's and the west side of the river. If you're a little further out, ask anyway.

Questions

Good to know.

How many dogs do you walk at once?

Usually just your dog and Zaylee. I keep groups small, never more than three, so every dog gets proper attention.

Do you take big breeds and XL Bullies?

Yes, happily. I've owned a husky and an XL Bully, so big, strong dogs are second nature to me. XLs are always walked muzzled and on a lead in public, as the law requires, and I'll ask to see your exemption certificate at our meet and greet.

My dog isn't great with other dogs. Can you help?

Of course. I can walk them on their own and at quieter times. Tell me about it at the meet and greet and we'll plan around it.

Do you give medication?

Yes, tablets and food-based meds as you instruct. Just leave clear directions and I'll keep a note of every dose.

Get in touch

Let's say hello.

Tell me a little about your dog and what you need. I'll get back to you the same day to arrange a free meet and greet.
