Dog training - dog walking & Hiking - Pet sitting
 

Welcome

EPPI logos pack .jpg
We’re here to support pets and their people with reliable, compassionate care — whether it’s a wild hike, a quiet cuddle, or a moment of learning.

At Wild Paws Adventures, we specialise in helping dogs thrive — from nervous rescue pups finding their feet to confident adventurers ready to explore the world.


I’m an IMDT‑qualified trainer with extensive experience supporting rescue dogs, puppies, and sensitive souls who need a little extra understanding.

 

Every dog deserves training that’s compassionate, modern, and tailored to who they are, not who they’re “supposed” to be.


Based in Helensburgh and surrounding areas, I offer:
•     Dog training (puppies, adolescents, adults, and rescue dogs)
•     Dog walking & adventure hikes
•     Cat & dog sitting with enrichment-led care


Everything I do is designed to build confidence, strengthen communication, and give pets the freedom to enjoy life in a way that feels safe and joyful.
With a nature-inspired, trauma‑informed approach, your pets are supported with patience, expertise, and genuine care — and you get peace of mind knowing they’re in skilled, loving hands.

 

Because every tail matters 🐾

"Sara has been absolutely fantastic with our pup who is full of energy! She went over and beyond, not just a dog walking service but also some training thrown in which has been super helpful. She is really communicative and we love the updates we get throughout the day knowing he’s in safe hands and having the best time!"
