I run The Muddy Collective, based in Verwood Dorset, offering professional dog walking, equine care, and pet sitting for animals of all sizes. With a long-standing career in animal care, my background is firmly rooted in the equine world, having worked across livery yards and riding schools, and spending over ten years at the Royal Mews, where I progressed to the role of coachman.
 

I began my career with a Level 3 Extended Diploma in Animal Management and Welfare at Merrist Wood, then completed my apprenticeship at Wellington Riding School and achieved my Stage 3 BHS qualification. Alongside my professional equine experience, I also bring many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other companion animals.
 

Providing a safe, calm, and genuinely caring environment is at the heart of everything I do, ensuring every animal in my care is treated with patience, respect, and close attention to their individual needs.
