Reliable, professional, friendly, family run Dog walking & Home Boarding business based in Stonehouse, Lanarkshire.
My name is Alistair (Ally) & I started up Something to bark about when I was changing jobs, previously a chef, this is a complete change for me, a change I wish I had made years ago! Me & my wife love Dogs, we have 2 Chocolate Labradors of our own, 4 year old Tumble & 3 year old Jura who will regularly join the group walks. With Something To Bark About, you will find everything you need. We provide a service that suits the demands of you and your 4 legged friend. Whether it be a daily walk, doggy day care or your furry friend coming and staying at our house while you go on holiday, we will treat your fur baby with the same love & devotion we give to our own dogs. Get in touch with myself Ally to discuss what care we can offer for your dog.
Regardless of your animal’s type, age or mannerisms, each of my services can be customised specifically for them. We offer various services, Individual walks, Group walks, emergency let out service, puppy visits, doggy day care & home boarding. Get in touch today with any questions about how I can help you and your furry friend.
