At Dog Walks Near Me, we understand that finding the perfect dog walk isn't always as simple as it seems. We're Ross and Tom, the founders of this site, and our journey began with the simple joy of exploring the outdoors with our rescue greyhounds, Bryn and Mahlow. 🐶❤️

But our second greyhound, Mahlow, truly shaped the mission of Dog Walks Near Me. As a 40kg ex-racer with an anxious and reactive nature, every walk became a careful negotiation. We needed routes with secure parking, good visibility to avoid unexpected encounters, minimal stiles (lifting a 40kg dog isn't easy! 💪), and no scary bridges or claustrophobic kissing gates. We quickly realised that finding this kind of detailed, reliable information was incredibly difficult – scattered across the internet, inconsistent, and often missing the crucial "dog-centric" insights we needed. 🗺️🤔

That's why we built Dog Walks Near Me. Our mission is to provide the most detailed, trustworthy, and truly dog-centric walk information in the UK, helping you find stress-free adventures for your dog, whether they're a boisterous spaniel or a sensitive soul like Mahlow. 💖🐕

While our free features offer a great starting point, our DogWalksNearMe+ Membership  is designed to give you unparalleled confidence and convenience in planning every outing. It's built to address those very pain points we experienced, ensuring you have all the information you need at your fingertips.✨📱
