Ooh, what’s this then?! 👀 I may have made a mistake not bringing a jumper… for the first time in AGES, I’m actually a bit chilly! 😅

On the plus side, it means the pups can go absolutely wild, running around to their hearts’ content without me having to interrupt the fun for cooling-off breaks! 🐾💙

The best and worst sides of being a Dogwalker.
On one hand, 5 happy doggos getting out and having fun before it gets too hot.
On the other, a p**p bag burst on my leg 🤢

One of the saddest things I’ve ever had to write.

Last week, at just 7 years old, our Dylan crossed the rainbow bridge, and I had the absolute honour of being there with Bex as he peacefully slipped away.

I’ve walked Dylan since he came home as a young puppy. From the very beginning, he stole my heart—and everyone else’s too. He was famous around Cranbrook for his handsome face, massive fluffy paws and his cheeky personality. You couldn’t help but smile when you saw him.

We clicked straight away. I loved pairing him up with different dogs on walks, but his favourites were always the little ones—especially his best mate, Little Bear the Frenchie. Despite his size, he was the gentlest soul. If I ever needed a calm, trustworthy dog to help socialise a nervous puppy, Dylan was always my first choice. So many of the little dogs I walk today are confident around big dogs because they grew up walking alongside him.

When he was only a few months old, Dylan became desperately ill. We nearly lost him before anyone knew what was wrong. The vets were unsure, so in a bit of desperation I reached out to fellow dog walkers online. A lovely lady messaged almost immediately and suggested meningitis. It turned out she was right, and because of that, Dylan got the treatment he needed. It genuinely helped save his life.

From that point on, our bond became even stronger. He was my heart dog.

I don’t think I’ve gone more than a few days without seeing him over the last seven years. Whether it was our regular walks or pet sitting while Bex and Steve were away, some of my favourite moments were the quiet ones—him stretched across my legs on the sofa, or following me into the kitchen in the hope that cheese might magically appear.

Daisy has grown up with him too. She’d often come with me when I was looking after him, and they’d spend hours lying on the floor together, watching films and having cuddles. He was endlessly patient and gentle with her, just as he was with every dog and person he met.

I honestly don’t know what my weeks are going to look like now without him in them.

Bex and Steve, thank you for trusting me with your beautiful boy for all these years. Thank you for letting me be such a big part of his life, and thank you for allowing me to be there with you today. It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, but being able to help surround Dylan with love and familiarity in his final moments was something I’ll always be grateful for.

I’m going to miss him more than words can say, and I know his walking buddies will too.

We’ve lost far too many of our gang over the last couple of years. It brings me some comfort to think they’re all together again now, heading off on another walk, tails wagging, waiting for us.

Run free, beautiful boy. Thank you for every walk, every cuddle, every laugh, and every memory.

I’ll love you always. ❤️

☀️🐾Extreme Weather Update 🐾☀️

Looking ahead to this week’s forecast, we’re expecting another spell of warm weather. Thankfully, it’s not looking quite as intense as the last heatwave, with lower humidity and temperatures staying comfortable enough for morning walks.

To keep everyone safe, we’ll be making a few temporary adjustments:

🐾 Walks will start a little earlier than usual.

⏰ All walks will be completed by lunchtime, before temperatures become too high.

🌳 We’ll stick to shady routes with plenty of water stops and adjust walk lengths if needed.

🏡 Any visits needed after lunchtime will be comfort visits at home instead of walks.

As always, every decision is made with your dog’s welfare in mind, and I’ll contact anyone individually if their usual time needs to change drastically.

Thank you, as always, for your understanding and flexibility. Your dogs’ safety will always come first. ❤️🐶

✨ Behind every peaceful group walk is a lot of planning!

If you’ve ever seen me out walking and wondered why I keep my groups moving or politely create a little space, this video explains exactly why.

One thing you’ll notice is that I’m usually the one creating that space. If I see other walkers, dogs or busy areas ahead, I’ll often change direction, step aside or take a different route. I don’t expect anyone else to move for me—it’s simply part of how I safely manage the dogs in my care.

The only thing I do ask is that, if you see me actively keeping my group together and away from you, please don’t encourage your dog to join us or walk alongside us. Even the friendliest dogs can become overexcited in a group, and my job is to keep every walk calm, safe and enjoyable for all the dogs I’m responsible for.

My priority is, and always will be, the safety, wellbeing and happiness of every dog in my care. 🐾

Have a watch and let me know what you think. And thank you to everyone who helps by giving us that little bit of understanding when we’re out and about—it really is appreciated. ❤️🐶

Some dogs become such a regular part of your week that it’s hard to imagine not seeing them anymore. Bea was one of those dogs.

We’ve had the privilege of walking Bea since the very beginning of our business. She was sweet, funny, gentle, wonderfully greedy, and always so content. She never asked for much—just to be out with her friends, enjoying her walks. She became such a constant member of our little crew, and it won’t be the same without her.

It’s hard to believe we won’t see that beautiful snoot again, but Bea lived a long, happy life, reaching the grand age of 16, surrounded by love right until the end.

Run free over the Rainbow Bridge, Bea. You’ll be so dearly missed. 🌈🐾🐾
