What You Can Expect
Time for Collection We will pick your dog up from your address in one of our vans that are specially designed with maximum comfort and safety for your canine companion in-mind. If you're in, we'll greet you with a smile and go on our way. Or, alternatively, we'll use a spare key for your front door to collect your dog. We keep all keys in a secure, locked location at MBF doggy HQ.
The Walk Our walks differ in duration and location, but your dog can expect loads of healthy exercise with other dogs. Dogs in our care receive great enrichment and a boost to their socialisation skills with other dogs. You may even find they develop a new best friend!
Dropping Your Dog Home We are almost always back within the drop-off time period to either hand your dog back to you or leave them safe, secure, and happy in your home awaiting your return. You can check our socials after the walk, as we post every walk here.

Reviews
Add a Review“We’ve had a really positive experience with Man’s Best Friend. Harry has benefited from the mid-morning walk twice a week which helps us with days working in the office. Ross offers reliable walks and is great with Harry. It’s been great for Harry’s confidence as a young puppy, especially strengthening his recall, being off lead and spending time with other dogs. Ross is easy to deal with and clear about what he can and can’t offer, which keeps things straightforward and avoids any confusion. Most importantly, Harry really enjoys his walks and comes back happy and well exercised. It’s been reassuring knowing he’s getting good activity and social time during the day. We’d happily recommend Man’s Best Friend to anyone looking for a dependable and friendly dog walker. Harry loves it!”

“I can’t speak highly enough about MBF Dog Walking! Ross was recommended to us around 8 years ago when he started walking Jessie and was so good he’s also looking after our later addition Peggy. Ross, ably assisted by Boscoe, Claire & Tina goes beyond the call of duty in providing stimulating walks for the dogs including the Friday reservoir walk which is brilliant. The level of care & feedback provided is second to none and I’m pleased to count Ross as a good friend. What can I say, MBF Walking are Top Dogs!!”

“Bella has been going on the companion service walks since she was 6 months old. She is so excited when Tina arrives to pick her up and she loves spending thd day with her doggy friends and with Tina and Claire. Bella is well socialised and well behaved which is helped by the service. I would highly recommend.”
- Helen
“We highly recommend this service. Our dog cannot contain his excitement when Ross arrives to walk him, his howls of joy are ear splitting. Ross cares deeply for all the dogs in his care and customer communication is great. We've relied on MBF for over 2 years. It's been a very good experience. The level of passion for the dogs is evident across the team.”
- Tricia
“MBF have been amazing for our cavapoo Toby! He joined the companion walks at 18 months after a poor experience with doggy daycare and since then his confidence has flourished and his reactiveness with other dogs has massively decreased. He (and we) adore Claire and Tina and we’re so pleased to have a local, trusted service nearby. Can’t recommend Ross and team enough! ”
- Sofia
“MBF Dog Walking has been absolutely amazing for Bridget! She’s still a puppy, but she settled into the pack walks so quickly and confidently. Ross was incredibly reassuring from the start, which made the whole experience completely stress-free. It’s such a wonderful thing knowing Bridget gets to escape for an hour, burn off energy, socialise, and have fun while I’m working from home. She comes back home happy and fulfilled every time! All pups can benefit from these walks. Highly recommend MBF Dog Walking to anyone looking for a safe, caring, and professional pack walking experience for their dog. ”
- Ellen
“I’ve been using this service just over a year now and it’s been incredible. The team at MBF really care about the dogs, you can tell because mine sits waiting and watching for his pick up and doesn’t stop wagging his entire back end when he knows his people are at the door for him. He comes home happy and bouncing from every walk and then lays out with exhaustion after an fab day! The MBF team are also very caring of their clients, they know life happens and it’s unpredictable and they will do whatever they can to help you take the best care of your dog, I’ve been able to pick up extra slots now and then because of work or life and although it’s not a given the MBF team will also try to help if they can. Even the occasional Saturday walk! Thank you Claire, Ross and team Arnie loves you all xx”

“Ross has been with Lucy since her first few days with us. Not only has he helped with walks but settling her in with us too! He has been extremely flexible with our change in working patterns in the last month and responsive to all our questions. He even sends some great photos and videos too! Would highly recommend his services! ”
- Dale Prince
“Claire has helped look after our cavapoochon “Sherlock” since he was 12 weeks old. She provides an amazing service and we are very happy and privileged that she is part of Sherlock’s life. Claire has never missed a walk and always provides us with photo and video updates throughout the day, which is really nice. We trust Claire entirely and Sherlock clearly really enjoys the time he is with her. Most of the organisation is done via Ross, which is also very good and Claire/Ross make a great team. We would recommend a mans best friend’s service to anyone. Thanks for all your help. ”
- Will & Ella
“We used Man’s Best Friend for our puppy Parker. I can only say good things about the service. Claire is fantastic and kept me up to date everyday with Videos. Parker absolutely loved Claire. ”
- Karen Brook
“Our family have relied on Ross to walk our spaniel Nelly regularly over the last two years and before that our beagle Monty. We have found him to be very dependable and trustworthy. Ross is committed to the pets in his care and goes above and beyond as he is very passionate about his job. ”
- Julie
“Ross has been walking our dog for over three years now. He has never let us down. He is totally dedicated to his dogs and clients and would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone. ”
- Julie Owens
“Mans best friend is amazing! Ross and Claire are far more than just dog walkers. They are so friendly, reliable and professional. They are so passionate about what they do and clearly love all the dogs and the job they do. Nancy loves her walks and runs to the door to great them! Would highly recommend! X”

“Ross is fab with the dogs. He really does treat them like their his family. It so nice to know Max is in great hands when he's out with him. Highly recommended.”
- Holly
“Ross is my dogs dog walker and I can honestly say I wouldn't have it any other way! He is amazing with my hyperactive staffy and he sleeps all day when he is returned from his long walks. Ross has worked wonders with my dog with his socialisation and provding pictures and videos for me to see everyday puts my mind at ease whilst I am at work. Ross will always go above and beyond and I highly recommend him!”
