Experienced dog walker in Central London!
Pet care experience
I am a highly experienced dog walker living in Oval, very close to the lovely Kennington Park! I have an 11-month-old miniature Jackapoo (Bonnie) who loves every single dog she meets. I spend most of my free time on walks around Kennington Park, Battersea Park and on hikes on weekends! Originally from the Lake District, I have spent my whole life surrounded by and looking after dogs of all shapes and sizes on our family farm. I spent two years working full-time on an upland hill farm, handling and training large working dogs such as Border Collies and Trail Hounds. Last year I also helped to raise a litter of 8 beautiful Border Collie puppies (photos attached!). I'm a very active person and spend a lot of my time running around the nearby parks in London. I’m a very trusting person and will ensure a high level of care and respect for your dog. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes, and nothing makes me happier than seeing a dog that is happy, calm and has enjoyed their time with me. My house is also clean and spacious with a very secure back yard.
Reviews
Tom looked after our very energetic and boisterous 1year old German Pointer Riggins for the day in our home - he offered to meet us the evening before to get to know Riggins which was really assuring and helpful. He arrived in plenty of time, was really calm and unflappable even with Riggins v excitable greeting! Tom sent me pictures and updates throughout the day
Tom looked after my dog Spot over summer for a week whilst I was on holiday and when I came to pick Spot up he didn't want to leave!! He looked very healthy and clean, despite all the walks round the river!! Thanks Tom :)

Information Tom H. would like to know about your pet
Before looking after your dog I'd love to know any special needs of behaviours they have. If you have a very shy dog, I will make sure to introduce myself gently to your dog and will always make to make sure their environment is calm and reassuring. Energetic dogs are also more than welcome!!
A typical day
I live close to Kennington Park, a fantastic place for dog walking. I love to take dogs out on long walks, and will always offer to fully clean your dog in the bath with warm water before returning them to you, free of charge. Free treats are always provided for your dog throughout! I also have my own car and I am more than happy to take your dog out on daytrips outside of the city on longer hikes. My favourite place for dog walking at the moment is the Surrey Hills!!
