Good to know

A few common questions.

Anything more personal can be discussed directly with Caitlin during your free meet & greet.

Yes. We carry full public liability insurance for dog walking & pet care and hold an up-to-date DBS check and Pet First Aid training.

Absolutely. Solo walks are available (£19/hour). We'll agree safe routes and equipment during the free meet & greet.

Blackburn and surrounding areas (Darwen, Accrington, Rishton, Wilpshire, Mellor, Langho, etc.).

Bank transfer or cash on the day. Regular clients can be invoiced weekly or monthly.

We ask for 24 hours' notice to avoid being charged. Bad weather never stops us unless it's unsafe.

Of course! We offer free meet & greets so you and your dog can get to know us first. It's a relaxed chat where we go over routines, personality, and any special needs before the first walk.

Only if we have your written permission and your dog's recall is strong. Safety always comes first — we make sure it's the right environment before any off-lead adventure.

We keep groups small — usually 4-6 dogs max. This ensures each dog gets attention, stays safe, and enjoys a calm, happy walk.
