Pet Care Services And Pricing In Sheffield

One-To-One Dog Walking

Your dog walks are private and tailored to your dog’s energy level, behaviour, and needs. Dogs are walked one at a time, or up to 3 dogs from the same household, so you get a focused dog walking service instead of mixed pack walks.

Dog Sitting Visits At Home

If your dog is happier in familiar surroundings, in-home pet sitting gives them care without the stress of kennels. Visits can include walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, and cuddles, with regular updates through the app.

Puppy Sitting For Young Puppies

Puppy sitting is suitable for puppies up to 16 weeks and is arranged around your puppy’s normal routine. Visits include feeding, fresh water, bowl cleaning, playtime with favourite toys, and lots of TLC.

Cat Sitting In A Familiar Environment

Cat sitting keeps your cat at home, where they usually feel safest and most settled. Visits can include feeding, fresh water, litter tray cleaning, playtime, cuddles, and small practical tasks such as plant watering or collecting mail.

After you have seen the prices, the next step is simple, contact K9 Time for your free 30-minute meet and greet with no obligation. You can talk through your pet’s needs with Derek and decide whether the service is the right fit.
