Experienced Dog Walker/Owner/Boarder for SW6 & W6

Pet care experience

I am an experienced dog walker and owner of 15 years. I have a two year-old resident Scottie Dog who loves meeting all the dogs that come to stay and ride with us to Wimbledon and Barnes Commons every day for a minimum 75-minute walk. These walks allow the dogs to run, forage and chase squirrels without the worry of traffic. I also live opposite a park which is convenient for short walks and ball games with smaller dogs who don't want a five-mile hike. The river Thames is 300 metres from my home and so river walks between Putney and Barnes Bridges are easily accessible. I also care for elderly dogs where driving to the park and allowing a 30-minute off lead wander is more appropriate due to aging joints. I am fully insured for daycare and overnight stays and for conveying my maximum of four dogs to the commons and local parks as opppripriate. Personally, I am a fifty-five year-old single man who has spent 30 years working in marketing. Walking and looking after dogs is a whole lot more fulfilling and satifying than reading endless social media performance statistics and constructing pan-European marketing plans, trust me!

Richard was a delight to communicate with. Our dog had the most adventure packed holiday and built a full on community while she was away. He loved her how we would love her and we are absolutely thrilled! 💞

Richard took such good care of Wally (3 year old Sproodle). We were sent videos and photos during the week and Wally was clearly well looked after. I would highly recommend Richard to anyone and we will definitely be sending him back :)
