what people are saying…
"I cannot recommend Kirsty highly enough! From the very first meeting, it was clear how much patience and genuine love she has for dogs. Not only is Kirsty a fantastic dog walker who keeps my precious dog safe, happy, and exercised, but she is also an incredibly knowledgeable canine behaviourist who has helped us work through some challenging issues. My rescue dog came from a local sanctuary and went from being very anxious and timid on walks and around humans in general to calm, confident, and excited to head out into the world! While my dog has been in Kirsty’s care, she has always provided me with the most personal updates, which is so reassuring! Her approach is gentle, positive, and tailored to each dog’s personality, and the results speak for themselves. I’ve noticed such a huge improvement in both my dog’s behaviour and overall happiness! Kirsty is reliable, trustworthy, and goes above and beyond every single time, and that makes all the difference!”

I've known Kirsty for several years, and there is no one I'd trust more with the handling of my dogs! She's completely trustworthy and responsible, and I give her the highest recommendation. When my (EXTREMELY playful and energetic) Doberman puppy, Draco, is in her care, I know he's getting exactly the love, attention, and play he needs. Anyone looking for a reliable, caring and fun dog walker should know that their dog/s will be in the best of hands! - Kayla H

“We used Hounds of Blaxtonville this weekend, as I was away and my wife was at work all day. Kirsty came to our house to meet our Rottie, Dave, for an assessment and see what requirements we wanted. The first thing I noticed was how passionate she was and really confident handling a large male dog. We had no concerns with Kirsty having access to our home and new Dave would be well looked after while we were away. Kirsty was extremely knowledgeable and had lots of experience working with dogs. I would recommend Hounds of the Blaxtonville for home visits or walking services. Thanks, Kirsty, for all your help this weekend. We will definitely be using your services again”

“Kirsty is incredibly intuitive and knowledgeable with dogs. My dog Ralph adores her, and she is able to build strong bonds very quickly. She is a trustworthy and dependable person, and I would highly recommend her as a dog walker/ sitter. Ralph can be nervous and reactive, but I trust her completely with him.”
