Our journey to happy paws
Welcome to Pawfect Pals, where our genuine love for dogs drives everything we do. We're dedicated to helping your furry friends thrive, building trust, and creating strong bonds. Discover the passion and expertise behind our commitment to happy, confident dogs and supported owners across the Scottish Borders.
Our passion, your peace of mind
Pawfect Pals was founded from a genuine love for dogs and a deep interest in their behaviour. We're passionate about helping dogs feel confident, happy, and well cared for, while supporting owners who might feel overwhelmed or unsure. Seeing the progress from consistent walking and positive training — a nervous dog gaining confidence, a puppy learning new skills, an owner proud of their dog’s improvement — makes our work incredibly rewarding. It’s about building trust, creating strong bonds between dogs and their owners, and making everyday life easier and happier for both. We're here to make a difference, one dog at a time.
Qualified care you can trust
What truly makes Pawfect Pals stand out in the Scottish Borders is our unique blend of professional qualifications, personalised care, and genuine passion. As an IMDT (Institute of Modern Dog Trainers) qualified professional dog walker, with IMDT dog training courses completed and certified in canine first aid, you can be confident your dog is cared for with kindness, professional knowledge, and safety awareness. We use modern, reward-based training principles, ensuring every walk is structured and purposeful, supporting good behaviour, confidence, and mental stimulation. Pawfect Pals combines recognised training standards, safety knowledge, and genuine care to create happier, more confident dogs and more relaxed, confident owners.
Meet the founder: A young entrepreneur with a mission
Hi, I’m the founder of Pawfect Pals, Theya — a passionate young entrepreneur currently studying at college while building a professional dog walking and training business in the Scottish Borders. Dogs have always been more than just pets to me; I'm fascinated by their behaviour, communication, and the bond they share. This led me to gain professional qualifications through IMDT, becoming an IMDT Professional Dog Walker and completing IMDT dog training courses, alongside canine first aid certification. My unique approach balances modern, science-based methods with genuine, personal care, using positive, reward-based techniques that build confidence and trust. As a driven and ambitious individual, I combine education with real-world experience to provide professional, up-to-date, and reliable services. Pawfect Pals isn’t just a business—it’s a commitment to happy, confident dogs and supported, reassured owners.
