Can I contact you after my dog's walk?

Of course! Text us on the group chat as much as you like

What training and care methods are used?

We use modern, ethical training methods which are fun and help you bond with your puppy. We never use methods that scare and can damage your puppy or dog (shouting, hitting).

We ask for at least 48 hours notice for cancellation unless your pet is unwell for walks that are less than a week or more. If you’re a regular client we ask for a months notice for cancellations of a week or more.

We will call you and your emergency contact and take them straight to the vet,

Is it the same person walking each week?
