Services
We are based in Prestonpans and regularly serve the surrounding areas including Tranent, Musselburgh, Wallyford, Ormiston, Pencaitland, Haddington, Aberlady and Longniddry, though we are happy to accommodate bookings from those further afield.
All of our services are custom tailored for you and your pet to encompass all of your pets’ needs, so visits can look very different for each of our clients.
Here you can find details of the most common services we have to offer, along with our pricing guide below.
If you think our services might be for you, or you have any questions, please get in touch!
New Client Consultations
Before we can start taking care of your pets, we will provide a free consultation for all new clients (and existing clients with a new addition to the family if required). This is a good opportunity for you and your pets to get to know us, to see if we are a good fit, and for us to better understand your pets’ routines, requirements and personalities.
Consultations take place in your own home, or on a local walk, and usually last for around 15 – 30 minutes, but can vary depending on number and type of pets. Dog walking consultations may last up to a full hour if required (we want to be sure we get a clear picture of your dog’s needs while out and about, not just at home!) We will also typically collect a set of keys during this consultation if we agree to proceed with registration.
Dog Walking
We exclusively offer one-to-one and same-household dog walks (up to four from the same home). This means that your dog sets the pace and gets our undivided attention, with walks that cater to their needs. It also means less time in the car, and more time for fun! Our 1-2-1 walks are well suited to dogs who are:
- elderly or disabled, and need a slower pace or extra mental enrichment
- puppies or rescues who are still working on their socialisation skills, and need some private down time
- energetic or boisterous, and need a faster pace or extra attention
- nervous, reactive, have health issues, working on behavioural issues, or otherwise not currently suited to group walks
- currently in training and need focussed attention and assistance with their program
But our dog walks are by no means limited to these categories! We welcome dogs of all shapes, sizes, personalities, and backgrounds.
Our solo dog walks are also perfect for pet parents who:
- work varied shifts and need a walker with flexibility around weekdays, or with weekend availability, without being restricted to set walk times.
- require multiple visits throughout the day, or visits outside of typical available walk times.
- have difficulty walking their dog themselves due to illness or injury
- have multiple dogs, or a new member of the family with special requirements and require assistance (yes, we can buddy walk with you too!)
Pet Sitting
Our home visits vary greatly between households, as no two pets are the same. We welcome all kinds of requests, and aim to match your pet’s regular care as closely as possible, so that they can stay home with minimal disruption to their routine.
Some examples of the services provided include, but are not limited to:
- toilet breaks
- litter/enclosure cleaning
- feeding
- grooming
- vivarium checks and maintenance
- administering medication
- games, training and other enrichment
- and of course, lots of TLC!
Home & Plant Care
We take great care of your property and keep everything tidy as a standard, but we also offer a range of home and plant care services, both regularly and during holiday bookings. This can be anything from watering your baby cactus while you’re away, to a complete weekly house clean.
Additional services include:
- domestic cleaning (with our pet safe products!)
- bringing in your mail, parcels, milk, or other deliveries
- opening and closing curtains or blinds
- basic care of your garden and houseplants
- putting out your bins for collection day
- checking heating and security systems to ensure they’re working correctly
- keeping your home secure and appearing occupied
