“We have used Walking the Dog to look after our Westie, Teddy, for around 18 months now and can’t praise Gavin and his team highly enough! Ted thoroughly enjoys his daycare experiences and Gavin has helped mould our slightly nervous and timid little dog into a confident, super-sociable little chap who loves everyone on the Walking the Dog team, canine and human! Gavin evidently loves all the dogs in his care and we are confident that Ted is in super-safe hands! We have always found Gavin to be professional and flexible with a ‘can do’ attitude – often coming to our rescue at very short notice! He also possesses a much needed sense of humour! Would highly recommend this fantastic team.”
“We have been using Walking the Dog for 8 months now since our dog was a puppy. They initially offered puppy visits and then as he grew older he started on group walks. They have always been flexible fitting in extra visits at short notice and I can’t fault the company on quality or price. I have met 3 of the dog walkers and our dog seems to love them all and is more than happy going away with them. I have been so happy I have recommended Walking the Dog to friends.”
“Since moving to Newcastle nearly three years ago, Gavin and his team have looked after my very spoilt pooch, Lily and I have never had a moment’s worry because she is very obviously looked after as one of the family. When Gavin boards Lily, he sends me daft photos of her in various ridiculous poses, demonstrating that he and his family also indulge her in terms of how much of the sofa space she takes up. I have recommended Walking the Dog to all my doggy friends and will continue to do so”
