About Vicky

I founded Paws on Patrol in July 2025. I was previously in a job where I was working very long, unsociable hours and it was making me very unhappy. I was missing my family and my dog.

So I took a gamble and began a new adventure – and it's the best thing I have ever done.

I love being outside in the fresh air, and I love walking and exercising. Most importantly, I love animals, especially dogs and cats. Being around them is the best therapy and good for the soul.

It is still early days for Paws on Patrol, but I am very proud of how my business has evolved in such a short amount of time.

I have several regular furry friends and some that I visit less frequently. All of which I have built an amazing bond with, and we can not wait to see each other.

They all have their own little routine of how we do things, which has developed over time together. Some like to go for their walk straight away, whilst others like a fuss and cuddle first. Some like their cuddle after, or just want to play. I love all of their ways and adore all of them.

If you are looking for a trustworthy and professional service, look no further – Paws on Patrol is here to help.

I offer all my clients and their pets a meet and greet free of charge to ensure that we connect (all of us, owners and pets).

I have a 7-year-old cocker spaniel who is still crazy but is the most loyal and loving dog, and I in turn love her so much.

What Our Clients Say

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"I can’t recommend Vicky enough, she is so passionate and loving towards our two labradors and they adore her. We can rely on her and she is always contactable. We’re so grateful we found her to check on our dogs while we work and we know they’re in safe hands 🥰"

- Chelsea, Max and Marigold's Owner

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Fantastic service. I feel totally at ease knowing my dogs are in safe hands. Professional, caring and reliable! Highly recommend 🌟"

- Laura

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"I approached Vicky when I needed help walking my dog Lola. I informed her of the breed before our meet and greet as she is a Cane Corso. Vicky came round wasn't phased by her size or how she was greeted when she first walked in!! Within 5 mins my dog had rolled on her belly and was getting lots of fuss. I instantly knew this was my new dog walker. Vicky is fantastic, nothing is too much trouble and she let's me know each day first thing if times alter slightly. I also like the fact she is first aid trained and carries a kit with her on the walks. Vicky is very professional, caring and nothing is too much trouble and Lola loves her walks. Would highly recommend 100%"

- Karen, Lola's Owner

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Alfie absolutely adores his walks with Vicky and we feel so lucky to have found her. He looks forward to her visits so much that he now recognises the sound of her car and starts whining with excitement the moment she pulls up outside Vicky is incredibly trustworthy and conscientious, and it is such a comfort knowing that Alfie is in such caring, reliable hands when he is out on his adventures with her. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and it is clear how much she genuinely cares about him, which gives us complete peace of mind. We would wholeheartedly recommend Vicky. to anyone looking for a dog walker who treats your dog like one of her own"

- Marisa, Alfie's Owner

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Vicky has been looking after Frank for about six weeks and has been so patient and kind with him. He is a very sweet boy once he gets to know someone, but can be quite anxious and difficult to begin with! Vicky has made a huge effort to introduce herself to him slowly and win him over. She always takes the time to send pictures during and an update after his walk which is lovely. Frank and I are very pleased we found her and would happily recommend to anyone looking for pet services."
