Is my dog suited to solo walks or group walks?
Every dog is different, which is why I offer both solo and group walks. Before your dog's first walk, I'll arrange a free meet and greet to get to know them, assess their temperament, and discuss their needs. Dogs selected for group walks are carefully matched based on age, personality and energy levels to ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable experience. If your dog would benefit from one-to-one attention, a solo walk may be the best option.
What happens in bad weather?
Your dog's safety and wellbeing always come first. Walks go ahead in rain, but during extreme weather, such as very high temperatures, storms or icy conditions, walks may be shortened, rescheduled or replaced with a home visit, garden play and enrichment activities. I'll always keep you updated and make the safest decision for your dog.
Will my dog come home muddy?
Dogs love exploring, so muddy paws can happen, especially during wetter months! I always carry towels and will wipe muddy paws and dry your dog off before bringing them home. While I do my best to keep them clean, please expect the occasional muddy adventure after particularly wet walks.
Does my dog need to be vaccinated?
Yes. For the safety of all dogs in my care, I ask that dogs are up to date with their core vaccinations. I also recommend regular flea, tick and worm treatments. If your dog has a medical exemption or specific circumstances, please get in touch to discuss this before booking.
What's the cancellation policy?
I kindly ask for at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel a walk. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice may be charged at the full rate, as your appointment has been reserved specifically for your dog. I understand emergencies happen, so these will always be considered on a case-by-case basis.
