It's DOG TIME

"Engaged terrific dog walkers the next day, recommended. So, I wrote this review a while ago as you will see. We have now had Anja and James (along with their dog Bailey) in our lives for 18 months and we couldn't be happier, frankly we don't know what we would do without them. They are totally reliable, knowledgeable and genuinely fond of all the dog's they look after. Our springer spaniel Kirby is madly in love with them both and has a wonderful exercise programme which is keeping him well and happy. If you want your pet to have the best, here they are.

"We needed dog walking support in Eastbourne following a hospital operation and we were put in touch with Anya and James who have a professional dog walking service across Eastbourne called ‘It’s DOGTIME.’ We arranged to meet them and from the outset we were very impressed with the range and depth of accreditation that they provided along with them ensuring that our 9 month old puppy had all the necessary vaccinations etc that would ensure that any other dogs on the walks would be fully protected from kennel cough etc. We hadn’t used a dog walking service before, so were understandably slightly apprehensive. However, we were very quickly reassured and increasingly confident and pleased with the excellent support that James and Anya gave us from the very first walk. They each walk small groups of dogs up to twice a day, that are carefully put together on walks based upon breeds and temperaments and ages that is aimed to provide the optimum enjoyment for the dogs collectively and individually. They also take numerous photos on the walks and post these on their WhatsApp page before they return your dog. We hadn’t expected this but it is very good, because it clearly shows what fun the dogs are having together. On a personal level James and Anya are always very professional, clearly love dogs and know how to calm and control them if excited etc. This especially reassured us because our puppy, who is hugely energetic and enthusiastic, is quickly calmed before being taken to join the other dogs, for example. They are also very flexible including coming into the house if we are out, to feed a dog, if asked. They have been utterly reliable and always bright and cheerful every time they have helped us during the last six weeks since our need for help with walks for our puppy. In summary, we have only praise for the sheer quality, reliability and genuine care that they have given our pet and their friendship and support that they have given us."

"I needed to find a dogwalker urgently due to a bad fall, making me unable to walk our 6 month Old English Sheepdog puppy, Juno. James and Anja were very quick to respond to my request. They came round to meet Juno in advance of her first walk and paired her with suitable dogs. I observed first hand just how much they love dogs and how well they handle them. Juno absolutely adores going out with them - she never even gets up when the doorbell rings...unless it's Dog Time! She rushes to the door and is SO excited to see Anja. James and Anja send photos of the walk, which is lovely. Juno is happy and is trained as she plays, I will be sad to stop using them (I am only here temporarily). I wish Anja and James every success"

"Realising that having a dog Walker is the best thing me and my partner have done in year 2020. Both work but both of us said we would get up early before work go for long walks but realistically doing this every day is tiring. #It’s dog time have given us a break and less stress. Our beautiful dog has changed mentally over night since having its dog time. An hour or more a day, we pay for an hour four times a week. Our dog has made friends and absolutely looks forward going out for his run and lovely scenic walks around Eastbourne. We get daily photos of the dogs running around together and being free. Since having #its dog time our dogs routine is great and he is so settled of an evening. I recommend it’s dog time for ALL dog owners, because they socialise with a couple of other dogs every day. This couple are lovely, beautiful, pleasant and my dog absolutely loves them. Don’t knock a dog Walker until you try it. I persuaded my partner at first he was like no I will walk him before and after, I said it’s 8 pound a day out of your wages. If we can afford food and a bottle of wine we can afford for our precious dog to have quality of life for 8 pound an day. Since we haven’t looked back and have added an extra day it’s that beneficial. We got home made cookies at Xmas and they are very flexible. I cannot blow there trumpet anymore. So pleased and Im very sure we are customers for life xxx Thank you Anja and James you two are something else xxx"
