When I first started For Paws back in 2011, I was only 1 of a handful of people offering a dog walking services. Now, there are many of us, which is wonderful to see as it shows that times have changed and it's no longer the norm to leave your dog at home, alone all day. 

But For Paws dog walking stands out from the crowd. I am a fully qualified dog trainer, having previously run my own classes in Clophill. I no longer run classes but continue to further my knowledge of dogs. I have been on many courses over the years from puppy foundation to aggression and rehabilitation and I also have a diploma in dog psychology and I have recently received a 'Distinction' with the BCCS for a diploma in Canine Health and Nutrition' as well as an online course for stress in dogs for therapist. I only use up to date, science based, positive and reward based methods.

I have over 40 years experience of dogs, from family dogs during my childhood, to my current two dogs, Millie (14) and Cooper (5). 

Dog walking with For Paws gives you peace of mind that your dog is in safe hands.

There is a pre booking in visit required where we can discuss your dogs needs and fill out the necessary paperwork for emergency contact details, vets details etc. We can then arrange a suitable time for you (if you wish to) to join us on a group walk. 

There are two 1 hour group walks available Monday to Friday.
