Dog Walking, Day Care
and Home Boarding
Covering St. Johns in Worcester, and the surrounding areas
Dog Walking Registration
Upon your initial contact, I will schedule a call or visit at your home to answer any questions, and to meet your dog. I will explain the Regular Walking service and the cancellation policy. Dogs must be worm and flea treated, and vaccinated for DHP, Leptospirosis, and Kennel Cough in order to book walks. If we are happy to proceed, we will arrange to meet to a local park for your dog to engage with a group. You will need to register your dog at this stage.
​
Next comes a couple of trial walks, I will evaluate how your dog interacts with the groups. Trials will be on the correct day, but may be at different times. Once the assessments are over and I know who your dog enjoys spending time with, I will report back and we can talk about reserving a regular weekly space for your dog.
Day Care Registration
After a short chat to discuss your needs and your dog, I will schedule a visit at my home to answer your questions, and see how your dog gets along with my own dogs. Dogs must be more than 12 months old, neutered, regularly worm and flea treated, and vaccinated for DHP, Leptospirosis and Kennel Cough. I will explain the Regular Day Care service and the cancellation policy. If we are happy to proceed, we will move on to the assessment phase. You will need to register your dog at this stage.
There will be a couple of assessment days to check that your dog is happy in my home and in the company of the other dogs. I will evaluate how your dog interacts with the groups on walks. While your dog is on trial, you must be available to collect at very short notice, so please do not go out for the day! We plan for your dog to stay for the day, but if they tell me that they need to finish early (learning new things is hard!) I will contact you and we can extend the time at the next visit until we cover the full day.
Once the trials are over, I will report back and we can talk about reserving a regular weekly space for your dog.
You may already be using the Dog Walking service, and if so we can adjust the steps accordingly.
Home Boarding Registration
After a short chat to discuss your needs and your dog, I will schedule a visit at my home to answer your questions, and see how your dog gets along with my own dogs. Dogs must be more than 12 months old, neutered, regularly worm and flea treated, and vaccinated for DHP, Leptospirosis and Kennel Cough.
At the meeting I will explain how Home Boarding works, and the cancellation policy. If we are happy to proceed, we will arrange a set of practice visits. You will need to register your dog at this stage.
There will be a couple of assessment days to check that your dog is happy in my home and in the company of the other dogs (day care visits), and after this an overnight trial. I will also evaluate how your dog interacts with the groups on walks. While your dog is under assessment must be available to collect at very short notice, so please do not go out for the day!
Once the assessments are over, we can talk about the outcome, and if successful, book your Home Boarding dates.
