Chelmsford Pet Sitters

This week I said goodbye to a very special friend, Jack.

This post is extra hard, as we lost his companion Jules at the beginning of this year.

I started walking Jack in 2014, he was always a nervous boy, and very wary of new people. In fact, the first few walks I had to encourage him out from underneath the dining room table! But he soon realised that I was someone he could trust.

He was a very gentle soul and loved being with the other dogs, just as long as no strangers tried to say hello to him 😁 He also had a naughty streak, which once involved me running across Hylands Park with group of dogs behind me trying to catch up with him because he decided the walk was finished and headed to the car park! 😂

For the past 12 years, I had the privilege of walking and caring for Jack. Through every season, every adventure, and countless wagging tails, he brought so much joy to my days.

He wasn’t just a dog I walked, he became family. He and Jules will always hold a special place in my heart.

Sending all my love and heartfelt condolences to his wonderful family, Ceri and Steve. To lose Jules and now Jack is utterly heartbreaking, but please know you gave them both such wonderful lives.

Rest easy, beautiful friend. 🌈

Some dogs leave paw prints that never fade.

Just a reminder to keep dogs and any other pets cool in this weather

Another sad loss for the Chelmsford Pet Sitters family 😞

You will have seen the video of Paddy I posted a week or so ago, waiting impatiently for me to arrive.

What I didn’t mention and you would never have guessed, is that Paddy was on palliative care due to having tumours on his lungs.

His owners, Amanda and Martin made the hardest decision on Friday last week to say goodbye to the best boy. I know they are heartbroken, as am I.

Paddy had such a huge personality for a little dog, he was so cheeky and funny, you couldn’t help but love him.

Rest well Paddy, you were the best boy 💔

Had to share this 🤣 for all the times I’ve heard ‘so, you’re just a dog walker’ 😁

I was hoping I wouldn’t be doing another one of these posts for a very long time, but unfortunately that isn’t to be.

Our darling Jules left us this week, she had been diagnosed with kidney disease last year and had been doing well until a sudden decline last week. She was 11 years old.

I had walked Jules and her brother Jack since she was a puppy. She was such a sweet girl, a typical cheeky spaniel, who at times had very selective hearing, but I wouldn’t have changed that for the world.

I was able to say goodbye to Jules on Tuesday and you could just see that it was time.

She has the most amazing family, who gave her the very best life, and I know who are missing her so much.

My love goes out to Ceri, Steve and Jack her brother.

Rest well Jules, you were the best girl ♥️

As we welcome the New Year, I just want to say thank you to every client - two-legged and four-legged - who trusted me with their beloved pets this past year. 💛

Being part of your pets’ daily routines, adventures, and quiet moments is something I never take for granted.

I also want to take a moment to remember the pets who crossed the rainbow bridge this year. They were so deeply loved, and it was an honour to care for them. They’ll always hold a special place in my heart. 🌈🐾

Thank you for your continued support, kindness, and trust. Here’s to another year of wagging tails, happy paws, and lots of love ahead. Happy New Year!
