A day in the life of a dog walker

Bella, a four year old retriever, has been staying for the past 3 weeks. She loves home boarding and gets on with Evie very well. Monday is the day her owners are coming home. Monday is the day Bella decides to roll in a massive pile of horse manure, all fresh and green. Monday is a really good day for Bella to have a bath!

It’s lovely having dogs to stay, I’m licenced by Cornwall Council to home board 3 dogs at a time but restrict this number to 2 to provide a more exclusive service.

So Bella has gone home now and all is quiet at the Piran Pets Pad. It’s great catching a bit of one to one time with Evie before the next four legged guest arrives. A break also gives me a chance to catch up with cleaning beds and towels!

Today hasn’t been the best day to be a dog walker. I used three sets of waterproofs but none of the dogs seemed to mind getting soaked. If anything, the rain made them all frisky. I did my afternoon ‘Little dog Trek’ at Chapel Coombe in St Agnes and this provided a bit of shelter for the little dogs – who all ended up going in the stream in any case. Towels, coats and van are now all dry ready for another soaking tomorrow!

Nicky looked after my beautiful retriever Bella for three weeks whilst I reluctantly went off on holiday without her. I knew Bella would be in good hands and Nicky looked after me well by sending me regular photo updates so I could follow Bella’s adventure romps and beach runs, every photo showing a chirpy doggy grin. Bella is now having a good rest after three weeks of thrilling activity and is looking very content with her memories

Poppy is always eager to go out with Nicky and comes back happy. Nicky has a good rapport with all the dogs she looks after and it’s lovely to see her out with the dogs in her care. It is good to have peace of mind knowing my dog is in good hands.

Our dog gets 2 to 4 walks with Nicky at Piran Pets a week. He leaps up at the sight of Nicky arriving and has a long happy snooze on his return. The walks are varied in terms of where and with what other dogs. It’s great to have somebody we trust to give him the big walks he loves and needs since we have less time because of our new twin babies.

Nicky has looked after and walked my dog for just over 4 years and has also taken care of her whilst we’ve been away. She gets to know your dog and gives them really good stimulating fun walks. My girl absolutely loves her and all her four legged friends. I love the photos and videos of her enjoying her time while we work.

We always use Piran Pets. We know that our dog will be well looked after and receive plenty of exercise and social activity whether boarding or in day care.

Nicky has been taking my three little dogs on the Little Dog Adventure Treks (Tuesday and Thursday afternoons) for several years. They hae a lovely romp suitable to the shortness of their legs! They love Nicky and she looks after them as if they were her own, even carrying the oldest when he looks a bit tired. Can’t recommend nicky and Piran Pets enough. Thank you Nicky x

Ralph adores his walks with Nicky and all his mates Nicky is caring and thoughtful and will always accommodate Ralph at the drop of a hat with our ever changing work commitments. I cannot recommend Piran Pets Adventure Treks more highly, 11 out of 10

I know Jake enjoys his walks with Nicky and I feel confident in her care of him and his doggy friends. Keep up the good work!

Nicky is fantastic with the dogs. Tilly is always so excited to see her and this means I know she is so happy to go on her walks especially in a pack giving me peace of mind. Nicky is always professional and I especially appreciate her flexibility, often responding to a last minute text for an extra walk when life changes direction and the unplanned occurs. Nicky is a very friendly person with a great sense of humour. We love going on her website and seeing the photos / videos of the day.
