A little letter to the version of me on my very first walk…

Take a deep breath... You’ve got this!

There will be days when you doubt yourself, worry if you’re doing enough, or wonder if you’re on the right path. But keep going. Perseverance is everything, and you’re capable of more than you think.

Have confidence in yourself, trust the work you’re putting in, and remember why you started. Not everything will go to plan, and that’s okay. Sometimes the unexpected turns lead you exactly where you need to be.

Look at how far you’ve come, and be proud of yourself for taking that first step, even when it felt scary. 🥹

Building something of your own takes time, patience and a whole lot of belief in yourself. But every walk, every new client and every happy pet makes it worth it.

To anyone else starting something new, chasing a dream or stepping outside their comfort zone, keep going you’ve got this! 💚

And to every person who has supported Bark&Meadow along the way, thank you. It means more than you know. 🐶🐾

Coco is definitely making the most of these crisp autumn walks and all the lovely new smells that come along with them 🍂

28/10/2026

🐾 COCO’S REPORT CARD IS IN! 🐾

🎀 Cuteness: A*
🦮 Lead walking: A
🌿 Confidence exploring: A*
💚 Overall vibe: A*

Coco spent two whole weeks with me, and what a fabulous couple of weeks we had! 🥰

From lots of lovely walks and hikes to beach visits (which came with a rather smelly surprise on two occasions 🤢😂), Coco certainly made the most of her time away!

We also visited a secure field for the very first time, giving her a new place to explore and enjoy. 🐾

It’s always so lovely getting to know each dog’s personality and watching them enjoy new experiences. Coco brought plenty of fun, adventure and character to our days, and I’m sure she’ll keep me smiling for a long time! 💚

Safe to say, Coco passed with flying colours! ⭐

🐾 Getting your dog winter-ready: the checklist! 🐾

The darker evenings and muddier days are creeping in, so now’s the perfect time to get a few things checked before winter arrives.

Here’s your reminder to tick off these three essentials:

🔦 Be seen: Hi-vis or reflective gear to help keep you and your dog visible on darker walks.

🌙 Light the way: A torch that actually lights up the path ahead, not just your dog’s face! 😂

🏡 Check your boundaries: Give gates, fences and latches a once-over before the muddy season makes everything a little harder to manage.

A few simple checks now can make a big difference to keeping your pets safe as the seasons change.

Want to get winter-ready? 📩 Message me WINTER and let’s tick this list off together before the clocks change!

Would you rather… DOG OWNER EDITION! 🐶

Let’s settle some very important dog-owner debates! 👀💚

A muddy park walk 🆚 a clean pavement walk
Group walks 🆚 solo walks
Morning visit 🆚 evening visit

There’s no right or wrong answer, every dog (and owner!) has their own preferences.

I’m curious to see which ones you choose! 👇

Drop your answers in the comments! Bonus points if you tell me your dog’s favourite, too. 🐾

What actually happens on a “quick” 30-minute walk?

A dog walk is about so much more than just getting from A to B!

Here’s what goes into those 30 minutes with Bark&Meadow:

🦮 Lead on – making sure we’re ready to head out safely.
🌿 Route check – choosing a suitable route for your dog’s needs and the conditions.
💧 Water breaks – keeping an eye on comfort, especially on warmer days.
👃 Proper sniff time – letting dogs explore, investigate and enjoy all those fascinating smells.
🏡 Safe return – making sure your dog gets home safely and settled.

It’s not just about how far we walk or how many steps we take. It’s about giving your dog time to explore, enjoy themselves and have their needs met.

Because even a short walk deserves thoughtful care. 🐶💚

📩 Send me a message with the dates and care you’re looking for, and I’ll check what’s still available before the diary fills completely.

Thank you so much for keeping me busy and trusting me with your lovely pets. It really does mean the world! 🐶🐱💚

Pet Obesity Awareness: Every dog deserves a walk that works for them!

Did you know that walking an overweight dog may need a slightly different approach?

It’s not about stopping walks altogether, but adapting them to suit your dog’s needs and fitness level.

🐶 Shorter, more frequent walks instead of one long one
🌿 Softer ground where possible to be kinder to their joints
💧 Plenty of water breaks and time to rest
❤️ A gradual approach to building stamina

Every dog is different, and carrying extra weight can put additional strain on their joints and make exercise more challenging. That’s why it’s important to find a balance that keeps them moving comfortably without pushing them too far.

This isn’t about blame or judgement. Weight can be a sensitive subject, but approaching it with kindness and understanding can make a real difference to a dog’s wellbeing.

If you’re concerned about your dog’s weight or unsure how much exercise is suitable, your vet can help you find the right approach.

The goal isn’t to do less for our dogs, It’s to do what’s right for them. 🐾

THE OPEN DOOR - A little Halloween reminder🐾🎃

Every knock, every doorbell, every delivery and every trick or treater means another chance for a dog to slip out unnoticed.

Halloween can be an exciting time but with the door opening more often than usual its worth taking an extra few precautions to keep your pets safe.

🎃Keep dogs in a secure room away from the front door
🎃Make sure collars and tags are up to date
🎃Check that microchip details are current
🎃Ask visitor to be careful when coming and going

Sometimes it only takes a second for a usually safe front door to become an escape route!
