Dog Walking and Daycare in Belsize Park
Belsize Park, NW3, sits right on the doorstep of Hampstead Heath: close enough that you can feel it pulling, too close to the main roads to let a dog properly switch off. So we do not walk Belsize Park dogs in Belsize Park.

Dog walkers in Belsize Park NW3
Every one of our walkers collects in Belsize Park, so we can match your dog to the right group. Stephanie keeps four calm dogs on Hampstead Heath. Jack takes the high-energy ones into the West Heath woods. Ashley opens up the Hampstead Heath Extension. Nick and Emma drive out to Arrandene in Mill Hill in groups of six. Whichever it is, it is a full hour, never counting the drive, and no balls.

Doggy daycare in Belsize Park
Daycare dogs go further still, out to the Secret Woodland we’re lucky enough to use, for four hours of streams, bracken and the occasional muntjac deer. Warren collects every dog himself, and they come home properly tired rather than wound up.

Who’ll walk your dog in Belsize Park
Stephanie
7 yearsQuiet and careful. She chooses her four dogs for how they’ll get on together, and her clients stay with her for years.
Jack
6 yearsThree walks a day in the West Heath woods. Tall, gentle and unflappable, so a lively dog meets calm the moment it joins his group.
Ashley
4 yearsWarm and easy to talk to, and he also does some of our overnight boarding, so if your dog ever stays with us it’s a face they know.
Nick & Emma
12 yearsOur longest-serving walkers: twelve years, husband and wife, and a steady, settled group of six at Arrandene.
Warren
16 yearsRuns every daycare round personally, and around nine in ten of our boarding dogs stay with him.
“They take great care of him 3 days a week and take him for fabulous rambles which help with both his exercise and socialisation with other dogs.”
We keep things calm
A dog that has been thrown a ball forty times comes home wired. A dog that has spent an hour moving calmly with friends comes home and sleeps. We aim for the second one, every time.
We also cover Hampstead, Primrose Hill and West Hampstead.
