I work for this company as a dog walker…read more A service for people who are out all day, or who simply don't have the time to give their dogs the exercise they need. Dog walks are for an hour at a time, usually Monday to Friday. Some people do book just for one day a week, or for two times a day. Evening, early morning and weekend walks also catered for. For instance, I've done a two hour walk on a Sunday for an owner with a dog that needed it! Dog walkers can hold keys if you will not be in when they pick the dog up. Your dog's needs are catered for: it may be let off the lead or not, given treats or not, according to your wishes. Though we do sometimes walk dogs from different households together, it's only if the owner is happy with that, and usually only a couple at once. Walkers are insured and police records checked. As the company has a number of dog walkers on the books they can usually provide cover should the usual walker be unavailable. If you are interested in working for this company: it's run by the same lovely woman as Cat Care London. It's a nice, friendly company. Payment is monthly and prompt. Not going to make you rich, but better than the dole. Dog walking can be done as a nine to five, five days a week job, however a high level of commitment is demanded. You can't just take a sickie on impulse when a live animal may suffer as a result. It's also a physically demanding job which will mean walking and being out in all weathers for long hours. And you need to be confident handling dogs of all types and sizes: I definitely wouldn't recommend it for someone who doesn't like dogs. You do have to pick up their poo in public

Doug rocks! He is pet sitting my rather highly strung, difficult little angel, Jason. He's been…read moresending us regular pictures and updates. Jason appears to be happy and relaxed. We were nervous about finding someone to take care of the little man because our previous pet sitter returned Jason to us looking very thin indeed and with scars on his face which looked like bite marks. Doug heard what we said and has been sending photos of Jason actually eating and without bite marks! We're not using Doug's walking service on a regular basis because we don't live in his pick up area, but Jason is going out with his groups while he's staying with them. From what I've seen in the photos and when I did a trial walk with him and his groups it all seems to be going very smoothly. I don't want to tempt fate by writing a review too early, but what else can I do on sleepless night?

Rocco disliked people coming close and I couldn't talk to other dog walkers or friends without him…read moregrowling, barking and lunging. He didn't like to be touched either. I put a muzzle on him because I was worried he may be a bite risk if people got too close. He was a puller and was increasingly difficult to walk him during normal times. I had a trainer previously but they did not take the time to get to know or understand Rocco and went to confront him head on in the first meeting and then took Rocco walking through a busy high street immediately. I then searched for reactive and aggressive dog trainers in London and came across Off Leash K9 and I cannot fault the experience and understanding of Andrea from the very first session. Andrea is non judgemental. His aim in the first session was to build rapport and try to identify the problem. As soon as Andrea met Rocco we were walking straight towards him and Andrea was very quick to identify the reactivity being fear based and guarding. He asked me to circle him a few times from a distance with each circle reducing until I was able to stand next to him quite close and this was probably the closest I had stood next to anyone for a while! Andrea's calming demeanour even with the barking and lunging, the expert knowledge and understanding of dogs behaviour and the teaching for human owners on how to handle their own dogs is out of this world. From the very first session I felt at ease and educated. Andrea told me that Rocco was guarding me hence the lunging and barking at people he didn't know coming near, in addition he was quick to identify the dog equipment I was using was not helping the situation and as soon as we switched from harness to slip lead and how to actually use them properly I felt immediately able to handle him much better. He also taught me how to be continually engaged with Rocco more and how to teach him new tricks through the use of food and objects he liked. Andrea also introduced Rocco to a very well behaved and chilled dog which helped relax him and give him confidence. He walked and interacted very well off leash with the other dog which goes to show again that Andrea knows his stuff and really understands the dogs needs. Rocco had not been off leash for a few months as his behaviour seemed to have changed as he transitioned into his teenage phase so I was quite nervous. Towards the end of our 8 week session Rocco was able to have his muzzle off in the park running around, being much happier and fulfilled and you can see the difference in him. No one outside my immediate family has ever been able to touch or play with Rocco and whilst I was always scared he could potentially bite Andrea who is not phased by the prospect of being bitten Rocco allowed him to hold his paw, stroke his head, have his hand near and in his mouth which I was absolutely amazed by! Rocco even listened to just Andrea on a new command towards the end of our last few sessions as they clearly had built a fantastic bond. Fast forward a week later Rocco was great at it with me and my sister commanding him. Practicing what you are taught by Andrea is really important as you cannot expect your dog to have the behaviour without the practice. You can tell Andrea is passionate about his profession and is highly experienced with dealing with dog behaviour. This is evident through his attitude and determination to help not only the dog but you as an owner. He will also explain the reasons why you should or shouldn't do something which is really insightful and some trainers may not give you this. Andrea is very quick to respond to any questions or concerns you have outside of your lessons. I highly recommend anyone in North London or wider boroughs who has any dog behaviour issues to please ask for Andrea through OffLeash K9. You will be walking away from each session with something new and a much better understanding and handling of your own dog. Andrea is a huge asset to this company and I would recommend other dog trainers to learn from him! He is the ultimate dog whisperer!

My dog likes to look fresh…read more Haha, not really. If it were up to her she'd let herself resemble Pigpen, would roll around in dirt and feces, and would generally look like she'd just been through a forage in the forest. However, as an apartment dog...this is not acceptable. She is a shorthaired lady, so she doesn't need the particular cut, but every few months she does need a deep down brushing, scrub and nail trim (something about trimming another beings nails terrifies me)...and thus we search for her spa. Easier said than done in East London! But I finally found Groom Dog City and I am quite pleased with the output. It's in a little shop near Haggerston/Columbia Market, they took my appointment quickly, the staff was very nice (both the owner and the assistant), and 45 minutes later I returned and was gifted back a dog that looked to be much cleaner and about 4 bales of hair lighter. Win. Reasonably priced too! For the works on my type of dog (again, no cutting/trimming required) for bath, eyes, ears, nails, brushdown -- about £25. I also left a tip because I have to believe this is thankless work giving spa treatments to animals who do not wish to be pampered. If they only knew! They even returned her to me with a little bow. I'll be visiting again next time she starts to resemble a vagabond... *appointments easily made online (he called me back right away). *there are a few shop dogs, word to the wise. I mentioned my dog wasn't so nice with other dogs she doesn't know, and they easily blocked them off. I'm sure my dog was still a nervous wreck, but there is a price to beauty and to coexisting with humans, Tillie.
