And the winner is... 🥁

June's pet of the month winner is Sally, who has walks with the our Bridgend branch ran by the lovely Emma! 🐶

Sally has been having walks with Bridgend since April 2023. Her owner had another walker previous who left them in the Lurch. But luckily, Bridgend was on hand to take over!

Laura, one of Emma's walkers and pet sitters has said - ’I'd love to vote for Sally, she used to be so shy on walks but now she strides ahead and enjoys meeting the other dogs.🐕

Emma has also added - 'Sally never used to go to the toilet on walks, now she is. She would have to be picked up to go into the car, now she jumps in herself. Many things she's grown more confidence with because we've been calm with her, taken our time introducing dogs suitable to her and working with her owner to make sure she gets the best care.'

Congratulations Sally! Well deserved win. 🤩🐾

Here’s 6 common signs of stress in dogs:
🐾 Excessive Yawning
🐾 Barking or Growling
🐾 Licking Lips
🐾 A Downwards Tail
🐾 Ears Pinned Back
🐾 Panting

Did you know? 💡
Just like humans, dogs can suffer with hay fever too. 🌱🌾
Seasonal allergies in dogs usually present as skin related symptoms but they can get sneezes and watery eyes just like us!

If you notice any of the signs above and suspect your dog may be suffering with hay fever, it’s important to consult with your vet for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Does your dog suffer with hay fever? 🤧

Your pet’s welfare is our priority 🐶 🐈 🐓 🐎 🐭 🦜 🦎 🐹 🐍 🐌

Why we walk dogs together but not in a pack!🐕‍🦺
Since 2007, We Love Pets has been committed to a No Pack Walk Policy, which means that our dog walkers never walk a group of more than four dogs (from a maximum of three households) at any time. In an industry that is largely unregulated, we have worked hard to increase awareness of the dangers of pack-walking while advocating for the welfare rights of animals in the UK.

Throughout the rest of January we will be raising awareness about pack walking and discussing how We Love Pets dog walks work😊 Watch this space🐾

11/12/2021

Just some of our adventures over the last couple of weeks with some of our lovely doggo family….some walks go more smoothly than others but the pups in our care always have so much fun 😍😍😂

10/12/2021

These 3 boys are firm friends 😍 A very muddy puddle is simply irresistible to our Portuguese Water Dog friends! 🤦‍♀️😂 Hose showers all round for this lot before they went home! ☺️ We love to see our doggo friends living their best life 😁👍

*****JOB OPPORTUNITY *****

Here at Cranleigh We Love Pets Ltd we are now looking to employ 3 new part time dog walkers and 1 new full time dog walker. We are a small team of 6 currently but now we are slowly going back to our normal lives, we are getting more and more enquiries from customers who will be needing help with their 4 legged family members and we have reached the point where we need to increase our dog walking capacity.

Applicants will need to have their own car and most of our walking customers prefer their pups to be walked between the hours of 09.30 am and 5pm with lunchtime (between 11am and 2pm) being our busiest time.

You will be required to have a full DBS check and also to complete 2 courses, including animal first aid and safe dog walking.

At We Love Pets, we NEVER pack walk. The absolute maximum number of dogs we will walk at any one time is 4 dogs from 3 households but it is unusual to have 4 and we mostly walk our dogs in pairs or 3’s.

If your application is successful, we will pay for all of your required training courses and DBS check, we will also provide you with your uniform, dog car seat belts, poo bags and leads.

We are looking hours contract as Covid is still making things somewhat uncertain, we do however aim to move you onto a 10hr per week contract as soon as possible and you will be entitled to annual leave as you accrue it.

We are a friendly team and there will be scope to progress your career with us once we are more established as we will be needing more walkers and boarders and consequently more supervisors.

Pay is £10 p/h and this will cover pay for your travel time between dogs and mileage too.

Please get in touch with us via phone or email to

*****A message to all of our lovely current and prospective customers****

Please bear with us for the next few days if you’re trying to reach us. As you all know, Jo’s puppy Ari had been very poorly over the last month and unfortunately today, he has become unwell again. Jo will be monitoring any messages/emails etc but may not be able to get back to you as quickly as she would like to as she will be dealing with this.

Many thank for your patience and understanding and I’m sure you will all join us in wishing Ari a speedy recovery.
