It’s understandable owners may worry from time to time about the safety & security of their dogs whilst in our care.
We have taken all steps possible and take this very seriously as when dogs are free running and playing ( under owners permission ) anything can happen thus us investing in GPS tracking devices which clip to the dogs collars for extra safety so they can be tracked at all times via an app if they should disappear out of sight! We can see on our phone via an app, where your pet is.
Yes we can walk your dog but he / she would have to wear a basket muzzle and be on a lead at all times and this would be on a solo walk.
Yes we are happy to have any dog as and when required after initial consultation and walk.
We do everything possible to make sure your pets and your home are as safe as possible. If you currently use a security system, we will continue to use it while you are away. We make sure to lock doors after each visit, and we will rotate the lights and open and close blinds to give it that lived in look.
