ABOUT US

K9 Walkies Time was established March 2020.  We offer secure free play areas where your dog can have fun and frolic with like-minded dogs, plus sheltered, cosy resting areas where the tired little pooches can choose to chill and relax.

Most of our care package takes place on our 2 acres of private land, so we are minimising the risk of our four-legged friends mixing with unknown dogs.

During their stay with us your dog will be socialised, play games and can even do some training activities, depending on your requirements.  We are both DBS checked and have completed Dog first aid training.

Helen’s story.

I have spent my life around animals, in fact I have 40 years professional experience working with both horses and dogs.

I’ve been a dog breeder for many years, breeding Boxers, Jack Russells, Jugs (pug/JR’s) and more recently Wire-haired miniature Dachshunds. I’ve also successfully competed my horses at the highest level within the UK.
Caring for animals has always been and continues to be my passion in life. I fully understand the bond between animals and their owners, especially when it comes to dogs.  Personally, I would say my dogs (I have 3 of them) are very important members of my family.

The welfare of our customer’s dogs is my highest priority; I’m qualified in canine first aid, have years of practical experience, but above all I just love dogs.

Lesley’s story.

I met Helen in October 2019 when I moved to Holmfirth from Glossop.  I needed care for my 2 dogs but I needed something a little different.  I have one dog, Pepe, who is young and full of energy, and Bella who is 15, needing attention and love.  What Helen had to offer was perfect:  a secure field and a yard, providing the opportunity for unlimited free play, rest plus a beautiful walk.  This has been perfect for my 2 dogs so we decided that we would make the service bigger and better together.

Our facilities

We are located in the beautiful setting of Meltham, Holmfirth. Our main 2 acre field is securely fenced and we have smaller secure areas for loading/unloading our precious pups.

Within our space we have a wide variety of facilities including sheltered areas, paddling pools, tunnels, agility obstacles and other doggy toys.

Take the worry out of your day and ensure that your four-legged friend is not bored at home waiting for your return.
