Frequently Asked Questions

What areas do you cover?

I am based in the Bulwell Nottingham NG6 area. I cover Bulwell and surrounding areas including Nuthall, Hucknall, Kimberley, Eastwood, Arnold, Mapperly, Carlton, Gedling, Basford, Stapleford, Sandiacre and Risley.

Can you handle special needs dogs?

Yes, I am experienced in handling dogs with special needs, including nervous dogs, aggressive dogs and dogs with behavioural issues. Each walk is tailored to your dog's requirements.

How do you ensure safety during walks?

Safety is my first concern. I will always liase with you the dog owner as to your needs, concerns and requirements. Secure leads are used at all times if required by you. No off lead walks without your consent and my group walks will never excede four dogs and in some cases never more than two dogs. In addition it is my intention to not use popular dog walking routes. I only use quieter less populated areas. Also for your peace of mind I carry a body cam at all times. I also provide a dog tag with our contact details and I use a bluetooth tracker on all dogs.

I couldn't recommend a walk on the calm side enough! Absolutely fantastic with my Akitas, who can be a challenge to walk at times! Andy is calm and patient with them, and they love it when he walks through the gate as they know they're about to go on a great walk (and get a break from me!)
