Benefits of Regular Dog Walks
Your dogs deserve the best care and attention but it is often difficult to find the time when you are busy with other important commitments
Dogs are social animals. Left on their own with little stimulation or interaction they are known to suffer from separation anxiety, boredom and loneliness.
This can lead to problem behaviors like digging, chewing and nuisance barking. These unwanted behaviours are alleviated by the exercise and stimulation of a properly structured dog walk.
Dogs crave adventure and excitement and delight in all the new sights, sounds and smells that come with a daily walk. So why not get me to walk your dog for you? From a casual walk every now and then to regular walks, I will make sure your dog gets a good workout and arrives back home safe and happy.

customer information
I offer private "One on One" walking sessions for dogs/s from your household only - I do not Pack Walk .
This is the preferred choice of most dog owners as it allows the walker's attention to be focused on your dog alone.
The aim of my walks is for your dog to enjoy a fun and healthy walk outside where they get to smell the flowers ,
fresh air and make new friends along the way . . . all while getting plenty of needed exercise.
I will personally walk your dog on leash around your local area, dog friendly park or harbour beach.
I handle everything - Pick-up and drop-off by foot (your dog will never go in a car), water, treats ( if ok by you ), bags, toys and plenty of rubs and cuddles for your pup.
I am devoted to providing you the best possible service as I understand your dog is part the family.
My prime responsibitlity is always the safety of your dog, I take this responsibility very seriously.
Please contact me for a free meet-and-greet with you and your doggy to see how we all get along.
Thank You,
Darren.
My name is Darren and I live in Dover Heights.
I have always had a love for animals and have had pets all my life. I have owned five dogs and a cat that have given me unconditional love and asked for little in return.
My dog walking service was created out of a genuine love for animals and helping people.
Having walked many friends ,relatives and neigbours dogs over the years, I realised there is a need for this type of service.
As the owner/operator, I promise peace of mind for those wanting professional, honest, and reliable care for their beloved pets while at the office or busy with other important commitments
I understand the special bond between an owner and their pet and therefore strive to meet every clients needs with professionalism and the highest regard for their animals safety, health and happiness.

" Darren walks my dog Katie when I am unable to and has always been professional, reliable and responsible. Katie clearly loves her time with Darren which is evident in her excited reaction at seeing him .I have no hesitation in recommending his walking services to anyone. "
- Trudy. (Rose Bay)
" I have known Darren for many years and he has looked after my darling Jessie on many occasions.
Jessie can be a bit temperamental at times and there are not many people I would trust to look after her.
I am grateful to have Darren to look after Jessie and it is comforting to not have to worry when Jessie is in his care. "
- Juliana and Jessie . (Rose Bay)
" Darren has been walking my 2 dogs for several months now and he quite clearly loves dogs. I find him to be very dependable, easy going and he has a gentle nature that I believe my dogs pick up on .They are always so relaxed and pleased to see him when he arrives that their little tails don't stop wagging. Darrens fees are very reasonable and you will be more than happy to have him as your family Dog Walker. "
