Personalised Activities, Walks & Services - shaped around your dog
At Dottie PAWS, there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach.
Every dog experiences the world differently. Some feel overwhelmed easily. Some need quieter spaces. Some prefer routine and predictability. Some thrive on mental stimulation more than physical exertion.
The PAWS Way is about listening, observing and adapting - so each dog receives care that genuinely suits them.
Personalised
No two dogs are the same, and their care shouldn't be either.
​
I take the time to understand your dogs personality, their triggers and comforts, preferred routes and environments, pace, stamina and energy levels and what helps them feel safe.
​
Walks and visits are adapted constantly to their changing needs.
Activities
Mental wellbeing matters just as much as physical exercise. Alongside walking, I offer:-
​
-
gentle enrichment
-
scent based games
-
quiet exploration
-
calm engagement
​
These activities help dogs decompress, build confidence and feel settled - particularly those who find find the world a little overwhelming.
Solo Walks
Calm, one to one walks, tailored to your dogs individual needs. Ideal for dogs who struggle in groups, are nervous or reactive, prefer quiet environments or enjoy slower, sniff based walks.
​​
Each walk is adapted to your dog's pace, preferred routes and comfort levels.
​
We also are able to ensure our walks fit alongside your dogs training or behaviour plans.

Shared Care - A Helping PAW
Caring for a reactive or sensitive dog often means every walk carries responsibility and emotional weight. It’s not simply exercise - it’s management, awareness and constant decision-making. It can also be tiring!
​
Our one to one personalised walks and visits, mean you can have the peace of mind - and occasional day off - knowing their dog is understood and supported, without pressure or judgement.
