The Percy&Bream Team
We are all DBS checked; fully insured; and animal first aid trained!
Charis (a.k.a Bream)
I've been a dog walker since 2020, and in that time have walked everything from cockapoos to german pointers; spaniels to boxers; staffies to labs, and have loved every single one! I have a diploma in animal management, and a first class degree in zoology so am well equipped to care for any menagerie!
I pride myself on ensuring that every dog has the most enjoyable, most enriching time when they're in my care. Out on walks some dogs are happy to play and run endlessly, whereas others prefer to stop and sniff. Mental stimulation can be more effective at tiring your dog out than physical exercise so through socialisation, scent games, and plenty of fuss your dog will return home happy, ready for a nap, and already looking forward to their next walk!
Rob (a.k.a Percy)
I've been part of the business since day one, although I was mainly helping from behind the scenes to keep everything organised and running smoothly! However as we took on more and more clients, I started to come along on the busiest walks as an extra pair of hands and loved it!
My main focuses are on providing home visits, in-home daycare, and house sitting which I really enjoy. I maintain dogs normal routines as much as possible to reduce any potential stress or anxiety.

I joined the Percy & Bream team in August 2022 and I’m absolutely loving it! After working in an office for a few years, I decided to follow my dream and look after animals as they have a big place in my heart.
All of the dogs in my care are a bundle of joy and seeing them having so much fun on my walks whether it’s having zoomies or picking up sticks the size of tree trunks, it makes being a Dog Walker so enjoyable!
Having been around animals all my life, I feel blessed to say I get to look after them for a living. Rest assured your dog will have a great time whilst in my care and they will be looked after as if they were my own.
Whether it’s quality time on walks, looking after them whilst your away or giving them a quick visit at home in the day, I can guarantee they will all get the same amount of care and affection.

I joined Charis and Rob in November 2021 and I absolutely loved it! Although I now have an additional full time job, I still love helping out with the dogs during my time off!
I started dog walking while I was studying (I have a level 3 animal welfare and management diploma) and have walked dogs from as little as a Yorkshire Terrier to as big as a Cane Corso! I have also had the pleasure of working in a doggy daycare where keeping the dogs happy and safe were my top priorities, so I have lots of experience to offer!
Every dog is unique and I love getting to know all of their crazy, wonderful characters so I can give them the best time on their walks.
Whether it's a walk, home visit, or caring for your dog while you're away, I'm more than happy to help!
