Dog Walking Services
At Bruno’s Buddies, dog walking is more than just a routine; with experience working with anxious, reactive, and energetic dogs, I tailor each walk to meet your dog’s individual needs. I ensure every walk offers not only exercise but also mental stimulation. Your dog’s training goals, such as lead walking, recall, or impulse control, are seamlessly incorporated into each outing. My goal is to provide a safe, structured, and enjoyable experience that reinforces good behavior while allowing your dog to have fun!



Buddy Walk – £20/hr
Our Group ‘Buddy’ Walk is ideal for dogs that are neutral around other dogs and have basic obedience. Limited to just three dogs per walk, your dog will enjoy a peaceful, controlled walk where they can explore, stay engaged and proof behaviours around a small group of well-mannered friends.
*New dogs wanting to join Buddy Walks will need to book an initial solo walk to ensure they have the suitable requirements such as lead walking and recall to join the group.
Solo Walk – £25/hr
Our Solo Walk is perfect for dogs who need one-on-one attention or are currently working through specific issues that may not be suitable for group walks. Whether it’s building confidence, or addressing behaviour concerns, we will tailor each walk to focus on your dog’s unique needs, providing a calm and controlled environment for progress.
The walk will focuses solely on your dog and their needs and can include anything from play sessions to quiet decompression walks.
