ABOUT US
OUR APPROACH
The pet care service your pet would choose
Holty Paws aims to be the dog walking and pet sitting service your pet would choose.
​
We are a family of reliable, friendly and fun animal lovers and we thoroughly enjoy walking, playing with and caring for your pet as much as you do.
​
In addition, all of our walkers have completed Pet First Aid training, are DRB checked, we are NARPS UK Accredited and comprehensively insured with public liability up to £5 million.
​
We specialise in small-group dog walking, weekend dog-treks and cat feeding services but we also offer a wide range of services - and if you can't see what you need, please just ask us!
HOW IT WORKS
When you first contact us, we'll have a chat and then arrange a 'Meet and Greet' visit. This allows you to introduce us to your pet and advise us of any special requirements they may have, so that you can see for yourself that your pet is happy with us, and you can feel confident leaving them in our care, knowing they will be well looked after.
Once you have decided that you will choose Holty Paws, you register on our secure booking portal, creating a profile giving all care details about your pet and contact details for yourselves. Once set up you can send future booking requests to us, update your pet's details with special dietary needs for example and even leave access instructions if you won't be at home when we come to visit your pet.
​
Of course, if technology isn't your friend, we can also arrange your dog walking, pet feeding, puppy care, house-sitting or whichever service you need over the telephone or email.

MAJA
Maja, our daughter, is at college taking equine studies but on her days off she joins us on the walks, providing an extra set of eyes and all her animal-centred devotion to ensure the group has an amazing time.
ZOE
Zoe has previously worked in the care sector but had been looking for a career change to work with animals and to fit work in with her children being at school.
SARA
Sara had been working as a physical trainer before joining the Holty Paws team, this offered her a better balance with bringing up her daughter and their dog, Panda.
KIM
Kim had been a client of Holty Paws, and seeing how we cared for her exuberant labrador, Jack, it made her realise she wanted to offer the same kind of care to others.
KERRY
Having grown up around dogs and pets, it was almost inevitable that she'd take the opportunity to work with them when she could.
LIV
Liv is an animal lover through and through so the opportunity to work with Holty Paws, spending her day caring for your dogs, cats and other pets was the perfect solution for this caring new member of our team.
CHARLEY
Charley studied Animal Management at Sparsholt College before going on to work with a dog daycare centre prior to joining our team.
Kerry has worked in the petcare industry before.
She was keen to return to this area and give love, care and attention to other people's pets again.
ENOLA
ROWAN
Rowan works within the hospitality industry but has always wanted to work with animals, having grown up with dogs and other small furry things around her.
She is now able to combine two careers and is looking forward to spending time out and about with your dogs.
