As you can see, I have been around dogs since a very young age. My love of our four legged friends was nurtured in me by my Grandfather. Pops always had gun dogs, and even bred a couple of litters of Springer Spaniels. As a family, we've had Springers, Cockers and Labs growing up.

​

As an adult, I have shared my life with a rescue Springer who is now over the rainbow bridge, but I am currently dog mum to 7 year old Cockerpoo called Indie! Indie comes out on all of the walks and loves making new pupper friends. She is also currently being trained as a support dog.

 

My passion for animals and interest in serving others inspired my decision to become a professional dog walker and pet sitter. I founded Hartford Hounds in 2018, after retiring from teaching. I have a diploma in Canine Services, I'm fully trained as a dog groomer and I am currently training for my behaviourist accreditation.  Over the past 2 years I trained and worked with Puppy School UK so I also have experience in training and delivering classes.

 

I can honestly say that dogs are my biggest love and passion. Nine times out of ten I will be looking at the dogs in crowds and not the humans!

​

I promise to love and care for your floofster as if they were my own!
