Over the last 2 years Murphy has been a regular 'guest'
of Debbie & Steve when we go on holiday. Knowing
he is with them is the difference between thinking
he will be alright and peace of mind knowing he
is safe, happy and loved.
Debbie & Steve also take him for regular walks,
but we cannot use their names whilst he is within earshot,
because he will sit at the window waiting for their
arrival and as soon as he sees his transport coming,
we get out of the way in case he knocks us over in
the rush to get to them!
|
|
When we take him for walks we have to put him on the
lead when we get to the opening of the field near to
Debbie & Steve
in case he does a 'runner', (recently when we caught
up with him he was sat on their doorstep!). Without
doubt in our minds this speaks volumes for the way
Debbie & Steve care for the animals in their charge.
Thank you Debbie & Steve for being so kind, caring
and trustworthy.
Nancy, Carmel & Murphy

Blue and I have been regular customers of Walkies
for over 18 months and the service Debbie & Steve
provide is second to none - and that has meant that
I could keep Blue following a change in my circumstances.
They walk him every working day and look after him
regularly when I am away with work, or on holiday.
On the daily walks, Blue can tell by the sound of
the van that it's time to go and waits at the back
door on full alert!
|
 |
When I am away, I know that instead
of being locked up all day and just exercised round
a field like at a kennels, Blue is with people and
exercised off lead with other dogs. He comes home
absolutely exhausted - the first time he stayed with
Debbie, he slept for a full day afterwards! He has
also become more confident with other dogs as he
gets used to meeting different types.
Steve and Debbie are as flexible as they can be
and give lots of notice when they go away so I
can make other arrangements - although I tend to
take the day off as I don't like to put Blue in
kennels when he is used to being so well looked
after! They also cope brilliantly with the little
things that looking after Blue entails - including
him escaping from my back garden and when he has
been poorly!
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Walkies and the
service Debbie and Steve provide.

We bought Toby to help my husband and for over 5
years he had never been left on his own for long
periods of time. When our circumstances changed,
Toby was alone at home during the day and he was
badly affected. Toby was very much a 'people' dog
and was very possessive with his balls and my daughter
and I wanted Toby to socialise with other dogs and
be happy again.
|
We found 'Walkies'
advertised in the Local Focal and one phone call
arranged a visit. My daughter and I were overwhelmed
with the kindness and professionalism shown by Steve
and Debbie, and their attention to detail, and had
no hesitation in asking them to take Toby out daily.
It gives us great peace of mind to know that Toby
is enjoying himself and being taken care of, with
the bonus of visits to the house for security.
Toby has a good routine and his behaviour has
changed. We put a lot of this down to the walks
with Steve & Debbie. Walkies has helped us
tremendously over the last six months, and my daughter
and I cannot thank them enough - and if you have
a dog that needs walking, I am sure Toby will introduce
himself as a friend!

'Walkies' Bradford have been employed by us
to walk and care for our young Jack Russell terrier for
over three years. We have always found Debbie to be reliable,
trustworthy and flexible.
Spider is a very happy and playful dog and this is
due in part to the good care she receives during the day
from Debbie's visits. Spider is indeed very fond of Debbie
and nothing is too much trouble!
We feel confident leaving both our dog and home in Debbie's
hands and have no hesitation in recommending her to you.

I have known Debbie for a long time. She
is one of the most kind, loyal and trustworthy people
I know.
Whilst on holiday this year, I left our dog Molly
with her and her family. I knew she would be well
cared for and walked regularly every day.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Debbie
to look after any animal either on a daily basis or
housing them for a holiday period. Debbie has a great
love of animals and their welfare is her foremost
concern.

| 'Walkies' Bradford
have been employed by us for over three years.
During this time they have developed a strong bond with
our dog a German Shorthaired Pointer and likewise the
dog has with them. Debbie is a very caring and trustworthy
person and we would not hesitate in recommending her to
anyone.

I have been using the Bradford ”Walkies”
service for over two years.
I work full time and previously, could take my retriever,
Leo, to work with me. When I changed jobs I was very
concerned about leaving him alone all day in the house,
until I found out about ”Walkies”. They are invaluable
to me and I know my dog is in good hands when he has
his daily walk with them.
Both Debbie and Steve are dog lovers with their own
pets. |
| They
are reliable, experienced and committed to their work
and they have never let me down. They have a key to
my house and they pick Leo up, walk him for a good hour
and then drop him home. They always dry him down if
he’s wet and dirty and write a daily record about him
for when I get home.
I trust them implicitly, they bring good references
and they run a very professional service.
”Walkies” benefit both me and my dog. Leo is much
more sociable around other dogs and now has ”doggie
friends” to see every day and I have a lot less stress
when I am at work knowing he is in such good hands.
They are certainly value for money to me and I would
heartily recommend them.

Walkies have been looking after
Alfie, our Standard Poodle, for over two years now whilst
we go on holiday.
I have known Debbie for over ten years and have always
found her to be kind, caring and honest. Debbie and
her husband Steve look after Alfie like they do their
own dog. I would not hesitate to recommend 'WALKIES'
to anyone seeking 'Home from Home' boarding of their
pet.

We found 'Walkies' Bradford services on
their web site after we were concerned about leaving our
dogs in the house all day whilst we were at work. Debbie
and Steve have been walking Badger and Olive since they
were puppies.
We have found Debbie and Steve to be completely reliable
and totally professional and it gives us great peace of
mind to know that the dogs are out having fun with their
friends when we are at work. The group walks have been
great for socialising Badger and Olive who love having
a good old play with other dogs.
On the rare occasions that we have been in when they have
picked up the dogs, it was great to see that they were
over the moon to see 'Walkies' and couldn't wait to get
in the van quick enough!
We would highly recommend 'Walkies' Bradford.

Trusting someone to come into your
home, when you are out, to collect your dog and take him
for a walk can be a big step to take. We were initially
apprehensive but Debbie and Steve put our minds at ease
straight away and we trust them completely with both our
house and Marco.
Walkies are professionally organised and instil confidence
in us that Marco will be well looked after. They are extremely
reliable and have never once let us down. You even receive
a report as to where Marco has been each day and the other
dogs he has been for "Walkies" with!
We can highly recommend Debbie and Steve to look after your
best friend just as you would yourself.
Susan, Andrew and Marco. |

We have been taking Boffin, our African
grey parrot, to Debbie and Steve's house for over two
years now. We could not be more pleased with the love
and care given to him. It is so good to know that we can
leave him safe and happy.
Debbie gives him freedom from his cage and treats him
like one of the family. She is brilliant. To Boffin it
is his second home. In fact, quite often when we go to
collect him, he will not come out of his cage for us to
take him home. He is so settled there.
Frankie, Dave and Boffin.
