 Our dogs typically enjoy hour long group dog walks once or twice daily with their canine friends. We visit a variety of local parks and walks are tailored to the individual dog’s age health and fitness. Our dog walks are for a minimum one hour and obviously transportation time is not part of their walk time. Each of our dogs gets individual attention and they will never be walked in overly large numbers. Your pets are picked up from and returned to their homes and are dried where necessary. ​

​                                                                               Finding a good dog walker or carer


      1) Do you have a trusted family member friend or neighbour with a good dog walker or dog sitter? Ask for their recommendation.

      2) Check out the internet for local dog walker reviews on multiple platforms and if you find one you are considering ask to speak to some of their                    customers, if they are genuine reviews they will try and accommodate this.

      3) Talk to professional dog walkers when you’re out and about they see other dog walkers working on a regular basis and are a valuable resource.

      4) If you have the opportunity when you’re out with your dog study the local walkers find out


      a)  Who's walking too many dogs, typically dog walkers are insured for 6 dog off lead group walks. Some insurers don’t specify a number but ask yourself if         if you want you’re dog walking with more?  Unfortunately there are some walkers who will walk very many more together

      b) Who's  leaving dogs in vehicles while they are walking other dogs.

      c) Check with the council licensing department that your potential dog boarder is licensed, check your dog walker has public liability insurance and an                up to date DBS check .

     5) It is advantageous for both you and you’re  dog walker to be local to each other, it aids flexibility and reliability and they will be known among you’re             community. If you have an out of area sole trader covering multiple distanced areas it leads to them spending an excess of economically dead time that          sadly is often compensated for by them walking an overly large number of dogs including dog aggressive dogs.  
 
    6) Consider the vehicle the dog walker uses and how you’re pet will be transported. Do you or they prefer to be in a vehicle with windows or are you and          they happy for them to be transported in a windowless van. Consider also how they will be transported within the vehicle and whether you wish to                  provide 
harnesses for them to be clipped into the vehicle with.  

   

    7) Most if not all dog walkers public liability insurance providers require written permission to walk your dog/s off lead. If they haven't asked for this It

        may indicate they are not insured.
