Hi, I’m Holly, the owner of Holly’s Happy hounds. I’m thrilled to be combining my passion for dogs with my love for the outdoors in my dream job. Having been a lifelong dog owner, I truly appreciate the companionship and unconditional love dogs bring into our lives, as well as their positive impact on families. I truly believe a dog is “man’s” best friend and that is why I want to provide the best possible service for your beloved family members.

Before pursuing my passion for working with animals, I spent ten years as a teacher. This experience has equipped me with patience, responsibility, and the ability to nurture individual needs – qualities I now bring to my dog walking services. I am also an avid learner and constantly seek out new information about dogs – what makes them happy, their emotional and behavioural triggers, and the importance of making them feel loved and safe. Additionally, I am Canine First Aid trained and have completed diplomas in Pet Care and Dog training.

I share my home with a wonderful Labrador named Otis, whose presence has greatly influenced my decision to start this dog walking business. My experience with Otis has given me a profound understanding of the needs and behaviours of dogs, allowing me to provide a service that prioritises their well-being and happiness.
