I would highly recommend Batson’s happy dogs. Our Frenchie Charlie loves the freedom of the walks with all the other dogs. He always comes back immaculately clean, despite the great daily video’s showing how muddy and wet the walks can get! 🐾 It’s great how well he is looked after. Stella and Lyndsey are really flexible with what days they take Charlie and genuinely care about his welfare. His socialisation with other dogs is great too due to the mix of dogs and great varied walks they go on. I know he’s well looked after while I’m at work. Thanks guys 😊 More...

They are so flexible, even when given short notice and respond to messages quickly. The videos they send us of the walks are a lovely touch as well. I cannot recommend them enough! More...

Reliable, trustworthy, professional and most importantly of all - Lady LOVES the walks. The daily videos are such a nice touch and we just know our dog is being looked after, getting great exercise and being well socialised. We've had Monday-Friday walks for 9 months, we've never been let down. Highly recommended. More...

Stella and Lindsay have been wonderful, don’t know how I would cope without them. Suki is safe and happy and Stella is very accommodating, kind and capable. I wouldn’t have anyone else look after my baby. More...

My dog absolutely loves his walks with Stella. The only time he has ever run off on one of his walks was when he spotted her on the other side of the park and was desperate to see her. She offers a reliable service and is totally professional - daily videos lets you see the fun your dog is having. He also always comes back spotless even though I know he loves to get muddy on his walks. More...

Stella walks my two whippets every week.The dogs adore her, and she created a lovely bond with them straight away. She is very pleasant, extremely reliable and flexible. A lovely touch, is that she sends a short video of their walk each week, which brightens my day! More...

It’s so comforting knowing that our puppy Lola is in kind and caring hands being visited by Stella each day. The videos we receive every time she visits show Lola having great fun, which is great to know when you’re out at work. Stella is really flexible and accommodating to our needs. I would highly recommend. More...

Our Teddy always looks forward to his walks with Stella!
Funny thing is, she is so good at keeping him in check, my wife and I now try to give Teddy his commands in Scottish!
I can thoroughly recommend Batsons Happy Dogs to anyone looking for a walking or visiting service. The dogs get a great outing at a range of different locations and best of all, they come home clean!

What do you love most about your job?
No matter what the weather I love the outdoors, being with dogs and having fun so this is an ideal occupation for me. I really enjoy building a trust with the dogs and then seeing how happy they are each and every time I collect them. You see how excited they are to see me especially if they have been away with their owners on holiday and so haven't seen me for a short while.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Having worked for 24 years with young children, I felt it was time for a career change and therefore decided to combine my love of dogs
and the outdoors to set up Batson's Happy Dogs. Also I felt it would be great to work for myself and see how I could grow not only a business
but something I love doing from scratch.
Why should our clients choose you?
Being a dog walker isn't just a job to me it's a passion and I really get a kick from seeing how happy the dogs
are to see me when they are out walking with their owners.
I have owned dogs all my life and have experience with many different breeds and behaviours.
I provide a professional service that's reliable, friendly, flexible and care for the pets as if they were my own.
I ensure the utmost safety and security of your pet and your premise both during and after my visit.
I'm a member of the Professional Dog Walking Association, fully insured. DBS checked, hold a valid Emergency
Canine First Aid Certificate and have a van with professionally fitted cages to transport pets as and when required.
