Pet Care Without The Scramble

Each walker is insured to walk up to 6 at a time, however, we often only walk up to 4 at a time or less.

 Yes. Our standard service is scheduled within one of our usual walk windows, but if you require a specific arrival time, this can be arranged for an additional £15 per visit, subject to availability.

For group walks, the normal collection window is 8:30am–2:30pm and collection times are otherwise determined by the day’s route. Private walks can be booked within your preferred time window, with the £15 specific-time option available where an exact time is required.

Not necessarily. Paragon operates as a professional care team rather than a collection of individual dog walkers. 

Your services are scheduled across our trained team according to availability, routes and your dog’s requirements.

Every team member has access to your dog’s detailed care profile and works to the same Paragon standards, so your care does not depend on one person's availability.

This also means holidays, sickness or diary changes don't leave you suddenly searching for somebody else to care for your dog.

This is our current neutering policy for group walk dogs:

Unneutered females: Yes, we can take unneutered females, if they are in season owners must notify us so we can make walk adjustments, we will still be able to walk them.

Unneutered male < 18 months old We can accept unneutered puppies, however, if they start displaying sexually driven signals or the environment starts to become not right for them — usually around the 10 month mark, later in some — we would suggest surgical neutering for group walks to continue.

Unneutered males > 18 months; We do not take intact males over 18 months, they will need to be surgically neutered, we do not accept chemical or suprelorin implants as acceptance of being neutered, they are welcome to still work with us through our other services such as private dog walks or training

On average dogs are in the van for up to 20 minutes at a time.

Dogs travel in our secure, ventilated & A/C controlled vans. Your pet travels securely & safely in a secure floor to ceiling compartment. We don't use cages or cram dogs into our vans. 

Our structured group walks take place in the local area, mostly in the countryside or along side local fields.

Private walks take place in your local area too, either a local walk around the neighborhood, or we can take them to new locations on longer walk bookings (travel time included in the booking time)

Paddock walks take place in a secured private field

Yes, we can let ourselves in and collect your dog and bring them back happy and relaxed ready for a snooze.
