🐾 No judgement here – just wagging tails! ❤️

Something I really want all my clients, old and new, to know is that I am never here to judge you or your dogs.

When we have a meet and greet or discuss your dog before their first walk, I often ask lots of questions such as:

🐶 Are they friendly with other dogs?
👋 How do they feel around new people?
🌳 Do they struggle in certain environments?
🚗 Do they chase cars?
🦴 Do they show any signs of resource guarding?
🐾 Are there any behaviours or situations they find difficult?

Please don’t ever feel embarrassed or worried about answering honestly. I’m not asking these questions to judge you, your training or your dog. I’m asking because their safety, happiness and wellbeing are my priority.

Dogs are individuals. Some are nervous, some bark at everything, some need a little more space, and others have their own funny little quirks. That’s okay!

I want to understand your dog as an individual so I can make sure they’re comfortable, safe and able to get the most out of their walks and time with me.

I’d much rather you tell me everything, even if you think it’s a little embarrassing, than leave something unsaid because you’re worried about being judged.

There is no such thing as a perfect dog, and you don’t need to apologise for yours.

I’m here to help, not judge. Every dog deserves to feel safe, understood and loved. ❤️🐶

🐾 A little reintroduction! 🐾

For anyone who is new around here, I thought it was about time I do a reintroduction as it has been a while.

Hi, I’m Emma, the person behind Dogs and Fairy Tails! 👋🐶

I’m a self-employed dog walker, trainer and pet sitter. My aim is to provide reliable, knowledgeable and individual care for your four-legged family members.

A little bit about me…

🎓 I have a BSc (Hons) degree in Animal Behaviour, alongside a Level 3 Diploma in Animal Management.

🐕 I’m fully insured, DBS checked and have a full UK driving licence.

🏆 Dogs and dog sports have been a huge part of my life. I’ve been competing at Crufts since 2019, with successes including winning at Crufts in both Agility and Freestyle Heelwork to Music!

🎤 I’ve also had the amazing opportunity to commentate at Crufts, sharing my passion for dog sports with the audience.

I’m proud to be part of the Royal Kennel Club’s HTM Liaison Council, helping support and develop the sport. I’m also a Kennel Club Agility Judge, Agility 4 All Judge and Level 1 Hoopers Instructor.

But most importantly, I’m a massive dog person!

Meet my own little team:

💜 Athena – My first dog, my heart dog and the one who started it all.

💚 Apollo – My goofy social butterfly who keeps life interesting.

🩵 Celeste – Our newest addition, bringing plenty of puppy chaos and keeping me on my toes!

You’ll probably see plenty of them popping up on this page, alongside lots of lovely client dogs.

What does Dogs and Fairy Tails offer?

🐾 Group and solo dog walks
🏡 In-home dog sitting and overnight care
🐱 Cat visits and drop-ins
🎓 1:1 Agility and HTM lessons
🐶 Doggy day care
💍 Wedding dog chaperone services

I’m incredibly lucky to spend my working days doing something I love, and I’m passionate about making sure every dog gets the care, attention and understanding they deserve.

Thank you to everyone who has supported my little business, recommended me, booked with me or trusted me with your dogs. It genuinely means a lot! ❤️

If you’re new here, please say hello in the comments and tell me a little about your dogs! I’d love to meet them (even if it’s only virtually for now!) 🐶💕

🎆🐾 The dreaded Fireworks Night is approaching! 🐾🎆

Firework season is nearly upon us, and while I’m very fortunate that my own dogs have never really been bothered by fireworks, this year will be Celeste’s first experience! 🐶

So I thought I’d share a few tips to help keep your four-legged family members as calm and comfortable as possible over the coming weeks. ❤️

🎇 A few fireworks survival tips:

🏡 Create a safe space – Make a cosy den or quiet area where your dog can retreat if they feel worried. Let them choose where they feel safest.

🔊 Mask the noise – Close windows and curtains, and put the TV, radio or some music on to help muffle the bangs.

🐾 Walk earlier in the day – Try to get walks and toilet breaks done before fireworks are likely to start. Always keep dogs on a lead, even if they’re usually reliable.

🦴 Keep them distracted – Lick mats, stuffed Kongs, chews and enrichment activities can help keep them occupied.

❤️ Offer comfort – If your dog wants cuddles or reassurance, give it to them! You won’t reinforce fear by comforting a worried dog.

🚪 Keep them secure – Make sure doors, windows and garden gates are secure. Even normally confident dogs can panic and bolt when startled.

🎆 Don’t force them to face their fears – Never take your dog outside to watch fireworks or try to make them get used to the noise.

And most importantly, remember that every dog is different. Some will happily snooze through the whole thing, while others may find it really frightening.

A little preparation can make a huge difference! 🐶❤️

Look after those lovely pups!

🐾 Some exciting HTM news! 🎶

Hi everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic Halloween! 🎃👻

I’m really excited to announce that I’ll now be offering both online and in-person 1:1 Heelwork to Music (HTM) lessons! 🐶✨

Whether you’re just starting out, looking to develop your skills, working towards competition or wanting to improve your routines, I’d love to help you and your dog!

I’m also looking to see if there would be any interest in online beginner classes groups for either Trick Training or HTM.

These would be a great way to get started, learn some new skills and have fun training with your dog, all from the comfort of your own home! ❤️

If this is something you’d be interested in, please comment below or drop me a message. If there’s enough interest, I’d love to get some classes up and running! 🥰

Feel free to share with anyone who might be interested!

🍂🐾 Just a little reminder! 🐾🍂

I’ll be away from 15th–18th October for my annual doggy autumn outing! 🍁🐶

I’ll be taking a few days off to enjoy some autumn adventures, so I won’t be available for walks, visits or sits during these dates.

I’ll be back to my usual schedule from Monday 19th October! ❤️

Thank you for understanding, and I’ll see you all after my little autumn adventure! 🍂✨

🌧️🐾 Cold & Wet Weather Reminder! 🐾🌧️

It’s definitely getting colder and wetter now! 🥶☔️

As the weather changes, please leave out a coat and towel for your dog if they need one when I’m visiting. 🧥🐶

I do have towels with me, but even if it’s only a short walk from the car/field back to the front door, little paws can still get very wet! 🐾💦

Having a towel ready means I can give them a good dry-off before settling them back in. ❤️

Thank you! 🥰

I absolutely LOVE this time of year and I’m ready to embrace every bit of it! 👻🧡

Who else is a spooky season fan?! 🎃
