Accepted Answer

Group walks have a maximum of 4 small to medium dogs. Large dogs are not accepted on group walks and should book a solo walk instead.

Question 4

Do you walk dogs in all weather?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Beverly walks in all weather conditions — rain or shine! Dogs need their exercise and stimulation regardless of the forecast. In extreme weather (heavy storms or dangerous heat), walk times or duration may be adjusted for your dog's safety and comfort, and Beverly will always communicate any changes in advance.

Question 5

Can you administer medication to my dog?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Beverly is experienced in administering oral medication, eye drops, and other routine treatments. Please let her know about any medical needs during the initial consultation so she can discuss the best approach for your dog's care.

Question 6

What happens on the first walk?

Accepted Answer

Before the first walk, Beverly arranges a free meet-and-greet at your home. This gives her a chance to meet your dog, learn about their temperament, exercise needs, and any special requirements. It also lets your dog get comfortable with Beverly in familiar surroundings. She'll collect your keys as part of the secure keyholder service and discuss the best schedule for your dog.

Question 7

Can I choose my dog's leash length?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. You can let Beverly know your preferences for how your dog is handled during walks, including leash length, whether they can go off-lead in certain areas, and any other handling instructions. Beverly tailors every walk to your wishes and your dog's individual needs.

Question 8

Do you offer discounts for multiple dogs?

Accepted Answer

Yes! If you have two or more dogs from the same household, each additional dog is 50% off the service price. The discount is applied automatically when you book.

Question 11

What is puppy socialisation?

Puppies must weigh no more than 4kg. Sessions cost £20.

Question 12

What is doggy boarding?

Boarding costs £28 per night.

Question 14

Do you provide poop bags?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Beverly always carries poop bags on every walk — you don't need to worry about providing them. She cleans up after your dog as standard, keeping parks and pavements tidy for everyone.

Question 15

Do you offer a keyholder service?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Clapham Paws offers a secure keyholder service. During the initial meet-and-greet, Beverly collects a spare key so she can let herself in and out for walks and visits without disturbing your routine. Keys are stored securely and labelled with a code rather than your address for safety. This is included at no extra charge.

Question 16
