About Emily's Bark and Ride
Hello! My name is Emily and I am your local dog walker and pet sitter based in Kirkby-in-Ashfield.
Your dog's walks should meet their needs and be enjoyable for them. I understand that not every dog has the same idea of what is fun! With this in mind, I offer a range of different walk types, ranging from solo lead walks with plenty of opportunities to sniff, to group adventure walks in the countryside, and everything in between. I also offer solo walks with a training focus, just let me know what you'd like me to focus on!
I also offer pet sitting services which can be tailored to meet your pet's needs, whether you are looking for someone to pop-in on your pet during the day or stay overnight while you are away.
I love working with animals, and will always treat them with kindness and respect.
I have an excellent understanding of dog body language due to having a range of professional experience:
-
Guide Dog Trainer (Guide Dogs for the Blind, 2020-2024)
-
Dog Care and Welfare Technician (Guide Dogs for the Blind, 2017-2020)
-
Dog Wellbeing Volunteer (Battersea Cats & Dogs Home, 2017)
During my time working at Guide Dogs for the Blind, I also fostered numerous training dogs and dogs awaiting re-homing.
