Our Stockton-on-Tees walks combine exercise, enrichment and social time without losing sight of the individual dog. Routes and group choices are based on temperament, confidence, energy and what will make that particular outing enjoyable.
Depending on the current schedule, we may also cover Norton, Hartburn, Fairfield and Ingleby Barwick. Home-based care is available too, including dog sitting, drop-in visits and small animal care.
Depending on what your pet needs, you can choose from dog walking, dog sitting, drop-in visits and small animal care. Puppies can also start with gentle puppy visits before moving into longer walks.

Meadows, wetland and woodland close to Hartburn create a more natural setting for dogs who enjoy slower sniffing and exploring.
Depending on collection area and suitability, Stockton's wider network of parks and walking routes gives plenty of scope for varied outings without forcing every dog into the same environment.
We always adapt to the real conditions on the day. Busy events, weather, ground conditions and the dog's mood can all change which route is the best choice.
A good outing should leave your dog pleasantly exercised and mentally satisfied, not simply tired. We mix movement with sniffing, pauses, gentle enrichment and the kind of attention that helps us notice when a dog is relaxed, excited, unsure or ready for a quieter route.
Sociable dogs may love a small pack walk, while nervous, older or more independent dogs may be happier with a solo walk. Pets who prefer staying home can be cared for through our drop-in visits or dog-sitting service.
The meet and greet is where we learn about routine, confidence, likes, dislikes and anything else that helps us make care feel familiar from day one.
