SPECIALIST DOG WALKING
Struggling with your dog's walks? Let me take the worry off your shoulders.
Individual dog walking for dogs with complex behavioural needs, delivered by a qualified canine behaviourist.
£50
/ 45-minute session
One dog. One-to-one care. An individual approach.
No group walks. No pressure to rush. Just patient, professional support tailored to your dog.
More peace of mind for you. More thoughtful support for your dog.
You don't have to spend every day worrying about how you'll manage your dog's next walk. I take on the practical responsibility of working with your dog during their booked sessions, with their safety, welfare and individual needs at the centre of my approach.
Who is this service for?
There are no bad dogs.
This service is designed for dogs whose behavioural needs make ordinary dog walking difficult, stressful or currently unmanageable.
Reactive dogs
Dogs who bark, lunge or struggle to cope when they see other dogs, people, vehicles or other triggers.
Fearful or anxious dogs
Dogs who find leaving the house, walking along the street or encountering unfamiliar environments overwhelming.
Dogs who struggle with everyday handling
Dogs who find being harnessed, approached or prepared for a walk difficult.
Dogs who need an individual approach
Dogs whose needs make group walks or standard dog-walking services unsuitable.
Rescue and newly arrived dogs
Dogs who need time to decompress and gradually discover an entirely new environment, particularly overseas rescues.
Older Dogs
Dogs who may have developed new reactivity or walking difficulties as a result of ageing, pain, sensory changes or reduced tolerance.

Get in touch
Tell me about your dog, their behavioural challenges and what makes walks difficult. We'll discuss whether this service is suitable for their needs.
Book a Behaviour Consultation
Before arranging sessions, we'll discuss your dog's history, triggers, handling requirements and any relevant safety considerations. An initial assessment or additional information may be needed before I can safely work with your dog.
Individual 45-minute sessions
I'll work one-to-one with your dog, adapting each session to their needs and progress. You can get on with your day while I focus on your dog's session.
What if we don't even get out of the front door? That is fine
Some dogs are so overwhelmed by the prospect of going outside that expecting them to complete a traditional walk would be unrealistic. For these dogs, the first step may be much smaller.
During a 45-minute session, we might work on:
-
Becoming comfortable with the harness.
-
Approaching or standing near the front door.
-
Exploring the garden or stepping outside.
-
Spending a little time in a quiet environment.
-
Gradually building tolerance around triggers, where appropriate.
-
Enjoying suitable enrichment when going further isn't right for that session.
Progress isn't measured in miles walked. It's measured by what your individual dog can comfortably manage.
For some dogs, it may take several sessions or even weeks before a walk becomes achievable. There is no arbitrary deadline, and your dog won't be pushed into situations they're not ready to handle.
