I can't recommend Jo enough. We used to use catteries but my cat is very scared when there so we found Jo from Take the Lead to do home visits and was the best decision. Jo will play with him, brush, feed, water and do his litter. He isn't phased at all when we get home. Jo also sends photos every time she visits which is great. This is an excellent service and will definitely continue to have Jo come and look after our cat for our future getaways. 5 🌟. |
I recently moved to the area and was worried about finding a new walker for Nell. I really didn’t need to be. Joanne has been an absolute godsend and Nell adores her! The photos and videos she sends every walk really brighten my work day. I couldn’t recommend Joanne and Take The Lead enough! Katie - Costhorpe

Jo has helped us with our dog Ronnie since we first got him as a young pup. We knew we would need a hand in helping Ronnie getting used to being at home alone - Jo has been invaluable in checking on him, and playing with him on the comfort visits - he loves her which is evident by his greetings which speaks a thousand words! He now has no issues with being left alone in the house and waits for Jo! The service is brilliant, always accommodating and friendly to deal with. She has also supported us with Ronnie's training plan which is just amazing and so appreciated. Photos/videos are sent each visit which is great - and Jo is quite the photographer! Shelby - Costhorpe

Our Springer spaniel loves going for his walks with Jo and he loves spending time playing with her in the garden. Jo has been extremley professional and reliable right from her first visit. She keeps us updated on what our dog has been doing and we feel at ease that he is having a good time. We would definitely recommend Jo to anyone looking for a dog walker. Eleri - West Hallam

Joanne was brilliant with us from the moment we first met her. She was great with our dog and got instant results. She is always on hand for tips and advice in between each lesson. She always writes up really comprehensive notes after each session about what we have done, and what next steps we discussed. Zane - Ilkeston

We have recently taken on Joanne for companion visits for our 4 dogs. She is extremely friendly & reliable & the dogs have warmed to her virtually straight away. Our dogs are so precious to us & part of our family, & we are more than happy to have Joanne visit & care for them😁 Would highly recommend Joanne & cant praise her enough. Karen - West Hallam

Jo has made going back to work so easy. I work part time so needed someone to take Paddy a walk for me in the day. I was so worried about leaving him with anyone because he is our baby! I knew when I spoke to Jo it wasn’t going to be a problem. Jo is warm, friendly and professional, Paddy loved her from the minute he met her, she has taken such good care of him for us. Paddy loves his walks with Jo and even though he is strong, Jo has managed to get him to walk nicely on the lead for her. Jo makes sure all Paddy’s needs are met and always leaves him settled with fresh water. Jo is trustworthy and reliable, you can tell she genuinely loves animals, with the added bonus that she is qualified in canine first aid. We are really happy with how quickly Paddy has settled into his new routine and all the lovely pictures and videos we get from Jo. We would definitely recommend her for the care of your furry friend!

Joanne has been so good with me and Sadie (my puppy). I was very nervous about leaving her for so long whilst I was at work but she sent me photos and videos showing how happy my puppy is with her.
She met us to make sure Sadie was happy, learned her commands and how I've trained her. Went through all the paperwork and made everything clear and comfortable. I trust her in my home and she is always respectful and professional. Definitely recommend! Rachel F - Ilkeston |
