For Paws Brentwood

Hello and welcome to For Paws Brentwood, a dedicated dog walking and cat sitting/visiting business serving the Brentwood area.

My name is Angela Sheehan. I am a life-long pet owner in Brentwood. I was trained at Writtle College, with qualifications in Canine First Aid and Dog Walking & Care.

At For Paws Brentwood, I will always visit you and your pet at home. This gives me vital insight and understanding of your pet and its needs before I begin to care for them. These initial visits normally last 30 minutes and are of course free.

Together, we can develop a reliable routine for your pet and a trusting relationship between For Paws and you. Experience has shown this approach provides reassurance for you and helps make your pet feel secure and happy.

Always an outdoor girl, I grew up grooming and riding horses from year dot. Dogs and cats were a constant feature in my family, long before I appeared on the scene. Having completed an apprenticeship at the Royal Parks of London, where I even had tea with the Queen, I went on to study an HND in Horticulture at Writtle College. I then had my own business in Horticulture and Landscaping. A change of track after having a family saw me qualify and work as a nursery nurse up to reception year in schools.

My love of animals though won over in the end and here we are today. After returning happily to Writtle, the top destination for Horticulture and Animal qualifications, I gained my Canine First Aid and completed and passed the Dog and Business certs/course.

I am very easy-going in my personal and professional life, making me adaptable to changing circumstances and requirements you and your pet may need. I always plan with my clients when we initially meet, so their dogs/animals are correctly and lovingly cared for in a way that they feel most comfortable. This results in a “happy dog”, or indeed, “cat”. Most of this requires simply love and respect for animals, and the establishment of trust between animal owner and us at For Paws.

Be it dog walking, cat or puppy sitting, or even checking in to see and settle our furry friends, you can be confident, happy and secure in the knowledge that the little guys are going to be in good hands.
