The Paws 4 walkies gallery
Our gallery taken from our Facebook Feed shows the latest 100 photos from our lovely walks and daycare/boarding.
With some (almost) spring sunshine the pups were much happier. We're almost there! 🌞🤞Oo forgot to mention Toby was ever so proud of the stick he found... Could it be any bigger 🤣
Going away and not sure where your cat can spend the holiday? Did you know we also do cat sitting?
Cats are usually happier in their own home - familiar smells and spaces reduce stress, not being near other cats can decrease anxiety and lower the risk of disease and your cat can keep their normal routines (food, litter, sleeping spots).
We can provide a free visit to discuss your requirements. More details can be found at www.paws4walkiesmalton.co.uk
We had a blast as new friend Claudia had a good run about with Robbie, Ronnie, Archie & Ralf 😍
This is all very true. A year or 2 ago I created a WhatsApp group for professional dog walkers and pet sitters in this area. There are currently 10 of us in the group and we share ideas, discuss issues, take advice from each other and offer work to others when we're busy.I’ve never seen other dog walkers as competitors.
I see them as allies… And I genuinely believe that mindset makes our local dog community stronger.
No single walker can meet every dog’s needs. Dogs are individuals: some thrive in calm, structured solo walks, others need carefully matched social groups, some need confidence-building, some need enrichment, and some simply need patience and consistency. Different walkers bring different skills, experience, setups and energy and that variety is a good thing!
Seeing other professionals as allies means I can recommend someone who’s a better fit when a dog’s needs change, when my availability is full, or when a family needs something slightly different. That honesty builds trust, not just between walkers, but with owners too. It puts the dog first ALWAYS.
A supportive network also raises standards across the board. We share knowledge, flag local hazards, talk through tricky situations, and learn from each other’s experiences. We encourage best practice, accountability and professionalism. Because when one of us does well, it reflects positively on the whole industry.
There’s also a very real human side to this work. It can be physically demanding, emotionally heavy and unpredictable. Having fellow walkers who understand the realities, the muddy days, the difficult decisions, the responsibility we carry matters.
Collaboration creates resilience, not rivalry.
At the end of the day, dog walking isn’t about winning clients.
It’s about welfare, trust and consistency.
When we work alongside one another instead of against each other, dogs get better care, owners get better guidance, and our local community becomes safer, kinder and more reliable for everyone involved.
That’s why I’ll always choose collaboration over competition. 🐾🧡
I would love to join the WhatsApp group if possible 😊
Ah was saying this today and always 🥰 You made it so as well really, thank you.
My favourite picture of the day. From the smallest dog I walk to the largest but it's the sweetest friendship with Brodie being such a bodyguard and always stays close by Poppy 🥰 You're both just adorable!
More pet pawtraits on our Thursday fun outing 🥰 Bella, Brodie, Bailey, Marley & Oscar
Such a nice afternoon so we went for a run by the river. Let's hope there's some tired pups tonight 🥰🌞
Lots of fun and action on our dog field trip ❤️ Ronnie, Robbie, Ralf & Poppy (loving all the attention from the boys! 🥰)

A suspicious look from Bailey followed by some kisses for Marley (not very receptive) 😂 Great to be back with these pups. I've missed you ❤️
Hope everyone's had a pawsome Christmas. Here's Mac Arundale enjoying the Christmas break 😍
The award for the cuddliest pooch has to go to Beau who is also Paws4walkies' oldest member joining us in 2022. Hope Santa Paws is kind to you little Beau 🎄🐶🎁😍
Oh thanks so much for all the cuddles and have a great Christmas x
Well done Beau xx

We've done our last walkies and pet visits now for 2025 and what a year it's been. We've enjoyed looking after dogs, cats, tortoises, fish, birds, guinea pigs, chickens and a goose! It's been amazing to continue looking after my regular pets as well as some new faces joining us. The business continues to go from strength to strength and that's thanks to my wonderful customers entrusting us to look after their loved and valued pets each day. We hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and whilst needing a rest now, also very much looking forward to plenty more adventures in 2026. Thank you and enjoy the festivities and wishing everyone health and happiness for the New Year
🎉🎄🍾🥂🐶🎁

Very wet walkies once again but we survive with some treats and a very big stick 😂 Well why not! 😍
Rain, mud and water... And more water! The pups still enjoyed the outing and splash about
❤️ Cedric & Betsy ❤️
Mark very kindly stepped in this morning for the outing as I've had yet another injury (2 falls in 2 weeks 😥)
Oh no !! Hope you are ok 🥰xx
Well you won't be getting a visit from Santa Paws if you carry on like that 😂
Who knew a dog could give such a dirty look 😂 Not sure what I did to deserve that Leon! Wednesday is always an entertaining walk!
It appears it's all about the sisterhood today as Willow & Poppy enjoy their game! Sorry Ronnie! 😂
Verrrry wet walkies today and I was on my second set of clothes but the pups... just shake and go 😂
We were wet and very soggy but Cedric and girlfriends Poppy & Simmie didn't care 😍 Look how happy they are!
That tongue 👅 😂😂x
Betsy & Beau enjoyed the quiet life as our beautiful spectators. Willow, Simmie & Ronnie you just don't stop 😂
