'IF YOU DO WHAT YOU LOVE, YOU'LL NEVER WORK A DAY IN YOUR LIFE'

Founded in 2014 by Katie Pacey, ForPaws Nottingham was brought to life with the soul purpose of bringing the very best of care to the pets of Nottingham.

KATIE

Hello! I'm Katie and I'm the founder of ForPaws Nottingham.

I have had a keen interest in animals my entire life, and have kept pets of all shapes and sizes from dogs, to mice, to giant land snails, since I was a young girl.

After attending college and completing my level 3 extended diploma in animal management at Brackenhurst College, I worked at a local boarding kennels before setting up the business and becoming a dog walker full time!

I have a special interest (borderline obsession) in canine behaviour, and am currently studying towards my level 4 advanced diploma in canine behaviour. In my spare time I train and compete with my own dogs in various sports, with flyball being our main focus.

I am proudly owned by two dogs, a labrador and a cocker spaniel, who keep me busy alongside my wildling toddler!

HANNAH

Hi! I'm Hannah! I offer professional dog grooming services and dog walks at ForPaws.

I studied a BTEC in Animal Management at Brackenhurst College and then went onto Hull University to study a FdSc in Animal Management and Behaviour and BSC (hons) in Animal Behaviour and Welfare.

I started my animal career working as a kennel assistant at a local kennels. This is where i met my business partner Katie.

Once I had graduated from university, I then went on to work as a head kennel assistant at another kennels & cattery. I was then given the opportunity to work alongside another dog walker and groomer, where i was trained, and this sparked my passion for dog grooming!

I now have a professional grooming salon at my home in Lowdham. I'm a proud owner of two French Bulldogs and two tabby cats.
