Dog Walking Dural and Hills District Sydney

Dog Walker Sydney 

Walking your dog is great fun, but it may not always be easy to fit in with work and family commitments. Maybe you have an injury or illness, or have undergone surgery that limits your mobility. Whatever the reason, this is where I can step in to help maintain a regular exercise program for your pawsome friend.

I offer a range of dog walking services in Dural and the surrounding suburbs in The Hills District, including:

• Regular daily or weekly dog walking
• On-demand dog walks to fit in with your work commitments, business travel, or holidays
• Short-term dog walking when you are recovering from illness or surgery

Let me take the stress away by customising a dog walking plan that meets your individual needs. Call me on 0406 863 751 to arrange a complimentary home visit with no obligation.

What Happens During a Complimentary Visit?

During this consultation, I gather all the information relevant to your dog’s care during walks. Each dog-walking plan is tailored and customised to your furry friend’s individual needs.

You can tell me about any training they have had, so that I can replicate this during our outings. I will use the same voice commands that you use for your dog, so that they benefit from the consistency in use. You can also let me know about your animal’s particular habits or quirks, so we can ensure I give them the best possible care when they are with me.

We can also look at particular walking goals you may have for your pooch, like managing their weight, increasing fitness, or reducing their anxiety.

Individual Care

Your dog’s welfare is my main concern. It’s for this reason that I only walk dogs from one home at a time, so they get my undivided attention.

Do you have more than one dog? I am happy to walk them together, but this will depend on their breed, temperament and sociability. We would discuss these points during your complimentary visit, so that we can agree on a plan of action that suits you and your pets.

When the walk is over and they are safely back in your home, I will fill their water bowls so they can stay hydrated. And there will be heaps of pats, cuddles and love as well.

If you live in Dural or the surrounding suburbs in the Hills District Sydney, call Desireé now on 0406 863 751, to discuss your specific dog-walking needs.

What Are the Benefits of Regular Walking for Dogs?

Regular exercise is an important component of your dog’s health and wellbeing. Just like their human counterparts, obesity is on the increase in our canine population. Dogs that are overweight are more likely to suffer from medical conditions such as cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance (diabetes), liver disease and osteoarthritis. 

For most dogs, a daily walk is enough, but active dogs, and certain breeds, might need more exercise. This is something we can discuss when we meet, and determine how vigorous and how long your dog’s walk should be. Your dog’s current fitness level and age will be factored in along with the outcomes you are hoping to achieve. 

As well as managing weight and health, dog walking has other benefits for your pet. They are stimulated by all the different smells and sights in your neighbourhood and, along with human contact, this makes them happy. Utilising their energy for walking also helps to reduce any anxiety they may experience. Plus, of course, tiring them out will reduce boredom and any associated negative or destructive behaviour at home.

A good long walk that burns off excess energy is a win-win outcome for you and your dog. Everyone will be happier when your fur child sleeps well and behaves better. Less barking or whining for attention, or jumping up at everyone as soon as they move. 

Call Desireé now to arrange your dog walking in Dural and the surrounding suburbs in The Hills District Sydney to keep your pet fit and healthy. The number is 0406 863 751.

Dog Walking Areas in Dural and the Hills District

If you enjoy walking your dog and are looking for some fun places to take them in Dural and surrounding suburbs in the Hills District Sydney, check out some of these areas:

Dog Walking Hills District

Dog Walking Castle Hill

Heritage Park is a great place to take your dog for a walk. There are wide open spaces and wooded areas, providing great variety for you and your dog to enjoy and explore. For more information, click here.

Coolong Reserve provides walking tracks as well as an off-leash area for dogs. This is great for getting in some socialising fun and letting them run free, burning off excess energy. Click here for more details.

Dog Walking Cherrybrook

Greenway Dog Park is a small but popular destination for dog walkers in the Cherrybrook area. The locals are friendly and there are plenty of opportunities for your fur buddy to make some pawsome new friends. This park is located at 36 Shepherds Drive. 

Fagan Park in Galston is another favourite, although it’s a short drive away. It has easy slopes and will get the heart rate going if you up the pace. However, dogs must be kept on the leash. The park provides a great space for training your dogs to walk to heel, and also to socialise, as it’s a popular family picnic spot. Check it out here.

Dog Walking Glenhaven

Bill Wood Reserve, on Greenbank Drive, is a small but lovely area of bushland, nestled between Dural and the Hills District. It’s a great place for inquisitive dogs to investigate as part of a longer walk around the suburb.

Dog Walking Kenthurst

Kenthurst Park is located on Roughley Road. It has some bushland area around the sports field, offering a smorgasbord of smells to keep your pooch engaged on walks. I have always found other dogs and their owners to be very sociable, making it a great place to meet new friends. You can read more at this link.
