Amie has been doing pop ins with our new puppy for a month now and she is absolutely brilliant. She comes 5 days a week to let our puppy out, play with him and do some basic training. She has been great at making recommendations to us to help us as this is our first dog and the training she has done with him is definitely making a difference! She keeps in contact with us everyday to provide updates on how he is getting on, and is prepared to go the extra mile to make sure he settles into his new routine. Sometimes she stays a little longer to give him extra cuddles and support! It is a bit of a trust exercise finding the right dog walker and letting someone into your home, but Amie has been fantastic and we couldn’t be happier. I’m sure our puppy feels the same way and is looking forward to starting to do more walks with Amie and the other dogs as he gets older!

The Yorkshire Lassie has been walking our dog for the last couple of weeks while I’ve been away. Not only is she professional in her approach, she is great with our daft golden retriever and I am more than happy to trust her to look after the woof and take him out at agreed times (which is not the case with all dog walkers). Highly recommended.

Friendly caring and professional approach. I have used the service twice, once at short notice and Pam was very accommodating. I feel very reassured leaving my house keys with her knowing the cat is going to be getting some much needed TLC whilst I'm away!!Pam is clearly passionate about her service and this is evident and the cutest thing is reading the daily chart explaining what they've been up to!! :)Thanks again...

This is a good question and one of the primary concerns of many people in need of a trustworthy dog walker. It’s completely justifiable too; we are essentially strangers who need access to your home to take care of what is basically a member of the family. I have built trust and great relationships with my client base over many years. I have strict agreements regarding security with all of my customers, especially regarding house keys, lock boxes, and contact details. Every client and their dog is different, so responsibilities naturally vary – but I always maintain the highest level of professionalism. This is evidenced by my current client base but also obvious when you look at my customer reviews and star rating on my Bark profile. It’s a great way to provide transparency in this line o
It’s hard to say as it all depends on the customer's location, plus different dogs love different walks. Rawcliffe Park is one of my favourites as the River Ouse runs alongside it, which is great for dogs that love the water. Hob Moor is fantastic for athletic dogs with lots of energy, as they have plenty of space to tire themselves out. Sometimes a short walk by the old medieval walls near York Minster is all the dog needs. It’s all about knowing what each dog likes.
The most dogs I have ever walked at any one time is six, but I doubt I’ll be doing that again. I typically draw the line at three or four, so I can give each dog my full attention. If by chance my customers live close together I might take several dogs out at the same time, but I generally like to keep each customer and their dog(s) separate. Not all dogs are comfortable around other animals or in other people’s homes, and I respect that.
How much does a Dog Walker cost?
The price of hiring a dog walker will depend on the area of the UK in which you live, with prices typically higher in the South of England and particularly in London. The cost of hiring a dog walker will often be lower in the North of England and in Scotland and Wales.
What should I look for in a Dog Walker?
The most important thing when you’re hiring a dog walker is that both you and your dog trust them. You should also ensure that your dog walker has public liability insurance that covers them in case of damage, accident or loss. The best way to find a reliable and trustworthy dog walker is by reading reviews of previous clients. When you hire a dog walker through Bark, you can browse the profiles of dog walkers in your local area and read honest reviews from genuine customers.
How many dogs can a Dog Walker walk at once?
It is recommended that a dog walker should walk a maximum of four dogs at a time, to enable them to maintain good control of each dog. Most dog walkers will give you the option of having your dog walked alone or with other dogs. Walking with other dogs will help your dog to develop valuable social skills. However, if your dog is reactive, you may prefer for them to be walked alone.
