This little sausage dog was being a total diva… in true dachshund fashion, he decided he didn’t want to walk 🐶👑😅

But on a more serious note, things quickly took a worrying turn once he got into the car 🚗

He had a fit almost straight away—frothing at the mouth, going rigid, and clearly very unwell 😢🐾
It was a scary moment, to say the least 💔

Thankfully, once we got him to the vets, the lovely team worked their magic 🩺✨
By the end of it all, he was right as rain again—happy, comfortable, and even managing a little smile 😊🐶💛

From diva to drama and back to happy again… never a dull moment in this job 🐾💫

One of the things I love most about working with older people is that they’re an absolute fountain of knowledge 💡❤️

I was chatting with a customer today about the trellis fencing I bought and (foolishly) thought would be a great idea to paint 🎨😅
Two hours later… and I’d only done one side of one panel… I’m seriously rethinking my life choices 😂🙈

We got onto gardening (because apparently everything I plant dies 🌱💀), and with her years of experience, she didn’t just suggest using shrubs—she told me exactly which ones flower, how to care for them, and honestly gave Alan Titchmarsh a run for his money 🌸👏

I truly believe I could ask any of my customers any question, and they’d have the answer… and I get paid at the same time! 🤯💬🐾

Ironically… she didn’t know what this plant was either 🤷‍♀️🌿😂
Answers on a postcard… or just pop them below! 💌👇

Yep, if dream jobs existed, this would be it ✨💛

Yesterday I was at RHS Hyde Hall

Waking along in this beautiful field, I spotted an injured Hare, whilst it didn’t look like the animal was going to make it

I still went to find someone to take them somewhere they could be PTS

The Hare didn’t make it
But by stepping in, I made sure they didn’t die in pain and alone

The Hare was only young I was told by the grounds team, but laying there terrified and near death with people walking past and either not noticing or doing nothing

I’m glad I did, even though I had a good cry and felt sadness for the Hare

I still took action because I believe in being a part of the solution the world needs

Happy Sunday everyone 🥰

A bit of a personal one today ❤️

Dad has Parkinson’s and isn’t able to get out of the house much anymore, so it was just me and this big fella heading off to the vets 🐶🚗

He needed his ears checked, a sore ear looked at, and a claw clip 🩺🐾

When we got back, Dad was so impressed and incredibly grateful 🙏
Moments like that really stay with you ❤️

Being able to help make sure pets still get the essential care they need, especially when their owners can’t get out themselves, is what makes this job so incredibly rewarding 🐾✨

My cat, sunbathing and living her best life whilst I’m out working all day!! ☀️🐱

Alright for some!! 😅🙄

Meanwhile I’m out here earning the kibble and she’s perfecting the art of doing absolutely nothing 💼➡️😴

She’s definitely cracked the system 😂🐾

If you’d love to be out and about running your own pet taxi and earning kibble for your cats (and dogs 🐶) while they’re at home living their best lives, pop me a message and let’s have a chat 📩✨

A few weeks ago we had to remove 10 cats from a tricky situation involving several agencies 🐾

The owner was lovely and so relieved we could help rescue all his cats ❤️

I refused to leave without all 10, despite pressure from one agency to hurry up ⏳
If I’m booked to transport 10 cats, I am not leaving without 10 cats!! 💪🐱

You can be as stroppy and authoritative as you like, it doesn’t faze me 🙅‍♀️
My concern will always be the welfare of the pets, not the bureaucracy between agencies 🐾✨

10 cats safely delivered to their new homes 🏡❤️
Even better, I supplied the carriers because they’d never been anywhere all together before 📦🐱

I can confirm… 9 cats were super well behaved 😇
1 cat… not so much 😅🐾

I’ve just entered the Pet Industry Federation Innovation Awards 🏆✨

Whatever happens next, I’m incredibly proud of what I’ve built. Pets 2 Places isn’t just a service—it’s a lifeline for so many people and their pets ❤️🐾

12 years ago, no one believed a pet taxi would work… and look at me now 💁‍♀️✨

From starting with nothing but a £10 Nokia phone and a handful of leaflets, to building a national brand over 12 years… it’s been some journey 🚐💛

We’ve grown from a one-woman band into something so much bigger—expanding into products, education, and now looking towards international growth 🌍

12 years of hard work, resilience, and belief… and I’m bloody proud of this working-class girl 💪✨

Sorry been quiet this week

Its one of those weeks this week!

I haven't stopped, the weeks flown by, there's so much happening in the background I feel like this is a good check in

- Submitting a EOI for the Innovate UK Proof of Concept grant, alongside our partners at Coventry University and of course with the amazing support of Inond®

- Looking at the Road Safety Trust grant, our next one to apply for to create educational content around pet transport and why most people are inadvertently transporting pets dangerously

- Starting our project for initial designs of our first product thanks to the South Midlands Growth Hub grant with Inond® this has been bubbling away for the last year or so, waiting on the right funding and time

- Day to day customers booking in

- Meeting with the lovely Estella Newbold-Brown to see how we can help each other moving forward with our campaigns. The dog wants you both people, dont be that person in a divorce!

- Holiday pick up, and rebooked for later in the year Haven are really dog friendly

- Lining up our interviews for interns from Cranfield uni

Phew, no wonder my brain hurts this week, all of this is just 4 days!

This little lady has been in for her groom ✂️🐾

She’s a temperamental little old soul 😆🐶💛
But every 6 weeks we have the same conversation…

She doesn’t want to leave her mum and dad behind 😢🏡
But she looks such a scruff, mum says she HAS to go! 🙈✨

Then she gets to the groomers…

And suddenly she’s living her best life 💁‍♀️🐶

Enjoying that hairdryer like she’s in a Whitney Houston video 🎤💨
Ears and hair flapping 🌬️🐾
Shaking it all out like it’s a full-on Pammy slow-mo moment 😆✨

Absolute diva energy 👑🐶

And then…

I’m rewarded with a scowl 😒🐾 when I get her home
And I’m marched off the property 🚶‍♀️😂

Just to make sure I AM actually leaving…
And there’s no more groomers for today! 😆

Until next time, floofster! ☁️🐶✨
