Dog Walking

Flexible, scheduled walks tailored around your routine.

Enjoy peace of mind knowing your dog will be collected, taken on an adventure and brought home safely.

For customers living locally, I offer a collection and drop-off service, making dog walking as convenient as possible.

After their walk, dogs are towel-dried where needed before returning home, helping them come back clean, comfortable and ready to relax.

Our Adventure Walks

Forests. Freedom. Fresh Air.

Our walks take place exclusively in hand-selected forests and woodland locations, chosen for their space, surroundings and suitability for dogs.

Dogs are walked away from roads, pavements and livestock, giving them the opportunity to explore, exercise and socialise in a natural environment.

We don't use pavements or roadside routes for our adventure walks.

Fresh drinking water is provided on every walk, and owners receive videos and updates through their personal WhatsApp group.

Puppy Introductions

A Gentle Start to Their Big Bark Adventures

Bringing a puppy into a new environment is a big step, so we take things at their pace. After our main daily walks, puppies come to my home to explore, settle in and become familiar with me, their surroundings and the other dogs.

These relaxed visits help build confidence, encourage positive socialisation and prepare your puppy for future daycare and adventure walks.

  • A relaxed introduction to my home and environment.
  • Gentle socialisation with me and other dogs.
  • Time to explore, settle in and build confidence at their own pace.
  • A great first step towards full daycare and adventure walks.
  • £20 per visit, lasting up to three hours.
