Meet Monique ♥ Founder
Calm hands, caring heart
Monique’s story will live here once the questionnaire returns — how she got into dog walking, why she set up Cosy Paws Retreat, and what makes her different from the bigger walking services around Southport.
Until then, here’s what already matters: every Cosy Paws walk is calm, considered and tailored to the individual dog. No big rowdy packs, no rushed laps, no one-size-fits-all routines. Just thoughtful walks, regular updates, and the kind of trust that comes from someone treating your dog like their own.
“Calm, caring and tailored to your dog’s needs.”
What’s on offer ♥ Services

Flexible for shift workers
Early mornings, late afternoons, weekends — walks built around your schedule, not the other way round.
Regular updates & photos
Photos and a quick update after every walk. You’ll always know how your dog’s doing — and you’ll get the cute pictures to prove it.
Small to medium dogs only
Specialising in smaller breeds keeps walks calm, controlled and safe. Your dog gets focused attention from someone who knows them.
