testimonials

Badger,  Hawick

“It was love at first sight for Badger- he could just tell that Penny was going to be a great person to hang out with, and he continues to be utterly delighted to see her when she arrives.  Penny has provided a consistently high quality and truly professional service in walking Badger during the week.  She has been extremely flexible around our needs and has provided a mechanism by which Badger could get socialised, which hasn’t been the easiest thing to do through the pandemic.  Providing a combination of on-lead (while he was very young and also while recuperating from medical procedures!), private walks, garden play time and group walks over the last 6 months, I am not sure where would be without Penelope Petstop!  Great value for money and genuine peace of mind – I highly recommend to other pet owners. Thank you Penny!”

Rubie, Hawick

” Penny has completely changed my wee dog’s life. Rubie, my street dog rescue was super anxious around people and other dogs and Penny has been taking her out for over a year now. She has found her voice and gets so excited when Penny comes to pick her up and she’s now great meeting other dogs when she previously would have nipped! Rubie has totally opened up thanks to the love and care Penny provided in her walks and I wouldn’t use anyone else for my girl! “

 

Barney, Hawick

Penny is the best!
Barney is a young Labrador and gets a great run and play on his daily outings with his doggy pals thanks to Penny. He waits at the door for her coming.
I know that he is in safe hands and well looked after!

Naomhan, Hawick

I couldn’t recommend Penny enough. She has been taking my dog on walks since he was a puppy, starting out with private visits and then moving him onto the group walks. She has really built his confidence around other dogs. He can’t wait to see his friends and is always excited when he hears Penny arriving. I couldn’t be happier with the service Penny provides- she is friendly, reliable and flexible around work schedules. Penny also posts regular updates on Facebook which is the highlight of my week- looking to see my boy running around with his doggy pals and how happy he is!
