Zoey - Group/Solo Dog Walker
 
Hello, my name is Zoe.
I have always had a love of animals since a young age and have spent the last 8 years working weekends at a cattery 🐈 🐈‍⬛
A few days before Christmas 2020 we suddenly lost our staffy cross, Mo at the grand old age of 15. We loved her for 13 years after adopting her from EDCH and she was the best first dog we could have asked for ❤️
Currently, I have a black cat called Dotty, a Staffordshire bull terrier called Blu, and a Romanian rescue dog called Shyla. Blu & Shyla have met some of your dogs on group walks 🦮
I am really enjoying walking your dogs and learning from Claire. 

Olivia - Group/Solo Dog Walker
 
I’m Olivia and I have been a dog walker for over 3 years, I provide fun and enriching solo walks, I always include some basic training and encourage lots of sniffing to ensure your dogs finish their walks feeling mentally stimulated aswel as physically! I started my career as a Dog Groomer 10 years ago after completing my Animal Care course at Elmwood College, I have also worked in boarding kennels and day cares. I’m now loving dog walking and I’m currently studying towards my Diploma in Canine Behaviour with ISCP. I’m a Mum to my 2 beautiful children and 2 adorable cats, I don’t have a dog of my own at the moment so I am very fortunate that I am able to fulfil my love of dogs by working with them!

Kirsty - Solo Dog Walker

Kirsty has 3 Terrior dogs and has owned many large breed dogs. She is very experienced and deals with some of the stronger dogs and dogs who can be reactive.
She does lots of training with the dogs out on walks.

Diane - Solo Dog Walker

Hiya, I’m Diane and have been around animals pretty much all my life, owning various dogs throughout. At the moment, I have two dogs. Blu is an 8yr old Whippet and Mistie is an 8yr old Bosnian rescue who came to us around 6yrs ago now. We think she is part Mountain Dog part Spaniel. Both 100% loveable and daft.

I own and operate a Pet Supplies home delivery business within the West Lothian Area and absolutely love Walking, the outdoors and Dogs so when I saw that the Dugs Paws team were looking for a Part-Time Walker I couldn’t resist. This to me is the perfect home / work life balance for me where I can work alongside your Dogs whilst running my own business flexibly.

Jade - Group / Solo Dog Walker

Hi I'm Jade! 
I was a dog walker for 9 years before having my little boy Rory. After a two year break I have joined Claire and her team because I love dogs so much. I have two terriers, Lady and Django and my newest addition is Isla the barn owl.

Lauren - Group / Solo Dog Walker

My names Lauren, I have two wonderful pups of my own, Harvey and Willow. I’m currently training to be a dog behaviourist with an online college course which should be completed by Summer 2027. I’ve worked with dogs my whole life and it’s my goal to work with them full time in the future! I promise to take the best care of your dogs.
