Wedding Day

PAVEY 'BARK' Adventure

This option allows you to book your pup in for a full days adventure. Again, this will be bespoke and adjustments will be made to their requirements. Adventure days could include a trail/fell run, swimming in the lakes and rivers, low or high-level walks or just hanging out away from the hustle and bustle.

Your pup will be collected and transported safely and securely to the adventure destination. Fresh water and treats (meals if needed) will be provided throughout their time with us and periods of rest as required. On return, dogs will be given a little pamper to ensure they don't bring the adventure back to your room with them and settled in their space. Hopefully, they'll be snoring away by the time someone breaks away from the dancefloor to check on them.

PAVEY 'BARK

From

£150

Starting at 4 hours

Let's not forget your guests!

I'm sorry I'm not available to supervise your cousin or your mate, however, if your guests are staying on site or close by and are bringing a dog/s they can also book walks. These will be charged at £25ph per dog.

WHY AM I DOING THIS?

Back in December 2017 I, (well my partner and I 😂) got married.

We were lucky enough to do this AT an incredible venue that allowed dogs.

I was so happy that Floki, our black labrador was able to be there for one of our most important days.

I only had one concern, I knew I would be constantly thinking about him throughout the day. What was he up to, had someone let him out, was he ok in the room?

Lucky for us a friend who lived nearby and was invited to the evening do, offered to take Floki on a big mountain run during the day.

This was a huge weight lifted, it made everything a little easier.

However, if I knew then what I do now, he would have had his own personal chaperone. Someone who would care and look out for him for the day, leaving me to focus on the fact the champagne was going down a little too well.

Floki could have attended the whole day, without having to rely on my guests to check in on him or give him his tea etc. He could have been there for the 'I do's', had his photo taken with everyone and even welcomed the guests as they arrived.

That is what I am here to offer you. I will attend your wedding for your dog, 100% of my attention will be on them throughout the day. I will ensure they are walked, rested, fed, watered, given treats, entertained and that they are ready to go if they are playing a part in the day.

All wedding chaperone packages are tailored to your individual requirements.

I even offer an ADVENTURE DAY package, for those pups that don't have a part to play in the big day.
