I’m Del (Derek), and I cover Finchley and nearby parts of North London for one-to-one dog walking and in-home pet care.

I work entirely on foot. No car. No van. That keeps things calmer for dogs and keeps your booking time as actual care time, not travel time.

If you’re not sure whether I cover your postcode, message me, and I’ll confirm.

House sitting can sometimes be a bit wider (see below).

Why my service area is small (and why that’s a good thing)

Because I’m on foot, I don’t do “destination” parks that require driving.

That means:

  • no time spent in traffic or looking for parking
  • No car stress for dogs
  • The walk starts at your front door and ends at your front door

House sitting boundary

For house sitting, I can sometimes travel further. For example, I travel to Wood Green for house sitting. The best thing to do is message me with your postcode and dates, and I’ll tell you what’s realistic.

FAQs

Do you drive dogs to parks?

No. Walks are local and start from your door.

Do you do group walks?

My focus is one-to-one care (one household at a time).

I’m just outside these postcodes – should I still ask?

Yes. Send your postcode, and I’ll confirm whether I can reliably cover you on foot.
