Services
Dog Walking
Our countryside, woodland, and beach walks stimulate dogs mentally and physically. Using a private 2.5-acre field for off-lead exercise, we ensure safe socialisation and recall training. Dogs travel securely in our purpose-built van with individual crates, guaranteeing comfort and safety throughout the day.
Socialisation Training
Specialised sessions in our secure field focus on basic commands, recall, and group interaction. Tailored to each dog's needs, these sessions address behavioural challenges while promoting confidence. Our experienced team uses positive reinforcement techniques to ensure effective, stress-free learning experiences for all breeds and ages.
Beach Day Out
Biannual full-day excursions to Camber Sands offer dogs sand, sea, and splashing fun. These supervised outings provide unique sensory experiences and physical exercise. Limited to specific seasons, these events require advance booking and cater to dogs comfortable in open coastal environments with other canines.
Daycare & Boarding
Coming soon, our daycare and boarding service will offer safe, supervised care for dogs requiring extended stays. Facilities include secure outdoor spaces and individual resting areas. The service will maintain our commitment to mental stimulation, social interaction, and regular exercise in a home-from-home environment.
Claw Cutting
Professional nail trimming services tailored to each dog's temperament and size. Performed by experienced handlers using appropriate equipment, this service ensures comfort and safety. Pricing varies based on dog size and cooperation level, with options for regular maintenance schedules to prevent overgrowth and discomfort.

How do you ensure dog safety during walks?
Our DBS-checked team uses purpose-built crates for transport, never leaves dogs unattended, and maintains air-conditioned vehicles. We follow client instructions for off-lead exercise and use seatbelts when needed.
What training services do you offer?
We provide socialisation, basic command training, and recall practice in our secure 2.5-acre field, focusing on positive reinforcement techniques tailored to each dog's needs.
Are group walks suitable for all dogs?
Dogs from different households won't share crates, but we assess compatibility for group activities. Our team manages varying temperaments to ensure safe, enjoyable group experiences.
Do you offer emergency dog walking services?
While we don't provide 24/7 emergency services, we offer flexible scheduling with last-minute bookings subject to availability during our operating hours.
What happens during bad weather?
We continue walks in most conditions using appropriate equipment. Dogs are kept dry where possible, and extreme weather may prompt alternative indoor activities or rescheduling options.
