Dog Walking / Sitting

Group Walks

Group walks are a fun way for your dog to be exercised and socialised at the same time. I want your dog to be stimulated not just physically but also mentally so they return home tired pups. I like to keep my group size to a minimum so I can give each dog the time and attention they need. I want your dogs to be happy and to trust me.

Solo Walks

Not all dogs are suited to group walks. I offer solo walks for dogs that may get overwhelmed in social group situations or are reactive to other dogs. Having previously owned a reactive rescue German Shepherd and dealing with other rescue dogs with behavioural issues, you can be reassured your dog will be in safe hands.

Short Walks

I offer shorter walks which are more suited for puppies and older dogs who may need less exercise. This service is also beneficial for dogs recuperating from an injury or surgery and only need out for toilet breaks and cuddles. 

Dog Sitting

Life can be busy sometimes and last minute appointments or emergencies can arise. Maybe you have a dog that suffers from separation anxiety or a puppy that is too young to be left on it’s own for long periods? I offer dog sitting in your own home for occasions where you are not around and they need that extra special time spent with them.

About Me

Hi there! I’m Lorna and from a very young age animals have been my passion.

At age 15 I started working in my local pet shop in Hawick and have been hooked ever since.

After my brief stint in pet sales, I began training at Oatridge Agricultural College. Here I gained extensive experience working with and caring for dogs, cats, livestock, rabbits, guinea pigs, rodents, birds and exotics. This is where I obtained my HND in Animal Care.

Since then I have been working in the animal welfare and animal health care sectors. Starting off in the Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home I worked as a Kennel Assistant. I then moved onto Hillside Animal Sanctuary in Norfolk and then from there I went onto PDSA (Veterinary Charity) in Edinburgh where I studied and gained my Level 2 Diploma for Veterinary Care Assistants. My most recent job was working at Edinburgh University Small Animal Hospital as an Animal Care Assistant dealing with many species of animals in a busy referral hospital. 

For over 20 years I have cared not only for my own pets but also for all the animals I’ve worked alongside (which funnily enough you never forget). I’m in my happy place when I’m walking and you can feel safe knowing your furry friend is in experienced hands.
