About Us

We are a friendly, reliable, middle-aged couple with a lifelong love of animals and the great outdoors. Caring for pets isn’t just something we do – it’s a way of life.

Over the years, our home has been shared with a wonderful variety of animals. We currently care for a lively Sprocker Spaniel, a cat, tortoises, and rabbits, and in the past we have also looked after guinea pigs, chickens, and fish. This hands-on experience means we understand that every animal is different, with their own routines, personalities, and needs. Whether it’s energetic walks, gentle companionship, or careful daily care, your pet’s wellbeing always comes first.

We’re passionate walkers and spend as much time as possible exploring the beautiful Norfolk countryside. We’ve completed several long-distance trails, including the Paston Way and the Weavers’ Way, both of which we’ve enjoyed alongside our dog. Having owned dogs of different breeds and ages, we understand the importance of tailoring a dog’s walk to their age, ability, and temperament.

When we’re not exploring Norfolk, we love heading further afield to places such as Wales, the Lake District, and the Peak District, where we enjoy climbing peaks and immersing ourselves in nature. This love of the outdoors carries through into our pet walking services—your dog won’t just be exercised, but enriched by their time outdoors.

We know how important it is to trust the people caring for your pets. We treat every animal as if they were our own, offering dependable, compassionate care – and peace of mind for you while you’re at work, away for the day, or on holiday.
