Real reviews from real pet owners
Sofia has looked after my animals many times, I completely trust her, she's super accommodating and super reliable!
Professional, reliable, and genuinely caring. My elderly Border Collie needs gentle walks, and they understand exactly what she needs. I have complete peace of mind knowing she's in such good hands.
Sofia looks after our cat (who is an absolute princess) when we go away and always come home to a happy cat! Trustworthy, knowledgeable about pets and very responsive.
Walter's Walks helped my rescue dog build confidence and social skills. They're patient, understanding, and truly care about each dog's individual needs. Outstanding service from start to finish.
Sofia has helped dog sit for me many times over the last 5 years and I know my dog's will always have the best possible care provided and probably better than me. When I've returned my dogs are relaxed and not stressed that they have been left, and know they have been walked and fed correctly.
First aid trained and fully insured - that's what initially drew me to Walter's Walks. But it's their genuine love for dogs that keeps me as a customer. Highly professional service!
