Full Job Description

Company description

We Love Pets Whitehaven look after every pet as if it were their own, ensuring they receive the right levels of mental stimulation and exercise. We take time to get to know pets and their needs, offering a premium personal service that goes above and beyond.

We walk dogs in a safe open space and return them home, happy, mentally stimulated and tired. We also provide fresh water, treats and will towel dogs off in wet weather.

Our aim is to make each walk the highlight of a dog’s day, giving them a chance to play, socialise, exercise and explore new sights and smells.

We also offer a range of pet visiting services for pets in their own homes. This includes visiting cats, small animals, birds and reptiles whilst people are on holiday and offering a tailored puppy package to help care for puppies whilst their owners are at work. Applicants for the dog walking position who are also interested in the Pet Visiting Services will be fully trained.

We do not pack walk.
