My name is Rosie! As a passionate animal lover, qualified animal carer and dedicated pet owner I decided to set up Walk with Rosie in 2010 after many years of working in different areas of animal care. I am full member of The Canine and Feline Behaviour Association. 

​

At Walk with Rosie I pride myself on providing a friendly and reliable pet care service and I do my best to be flexible to suit you and your pets needs.

​

I have always had a keen love for animals and the desire to work with them encouraged me to leave school after completing my GCSE's to pursue a college education in general Animal Care. This led on to a job at a local dog training establishment where I gained skills in grooming, dog training, walking, and teaching obedience classes.

​

After many years there I decided to take a job in NVQ Assessing students working with animals and although I enjoyed this, I missed the hands-on work and contact with the animals.

​

I made the decision to return to my prior work but this time working for myself, this is where Walk With Rosie began.

​

If you need someone whom you can trust and depend on to give a little extra help with your furry friends just give me a call to discuss your requirements.
