Who’ll walk your dog in St John’s Wood
Jack
6 yearsA dog’s energy follows the person walking it. Jack stays at a three or a four, and so does his group, which is why we trust him with the liveliest dogs.
Ashley
4 yearsNervous dogs are introduced to his group slowly, and he gets to know them properly before they’re ever let off the lead.
Warren
16 yearsEvery daycare dog in St John’s Wood is collected by Warren himself. He’s been doing it for sixteen years.
“The best in the business! Highly recommend Ashley”
We keep things calm
A dog collected at a seven is an eight by the park and a nine the second it meets another group. That climb is what causes trouble, so we do not start it.
We also cover Maida Vale, Primrose Hill and Hampstead.
