Dog Walking and Pet Care in Choppington

Local dog walking services in Choppington


If you are looking for a dog walker in Choppington, Good Dog Walking can help. We are a family-run pet care team, established in Morpeth in 2012 by Cheryl Bolton. Choppington is part of our Ashington territory, which is run by Karina, and already appears on our Ashington dog walking page, alongside Guide Post, Stakeford and Scotland Gate. Karina covers Choppington every weekday. This page is an extra local page, to help people searching for a dog walker in Choppington and the nearby villages.


Around Choppington, Guide Post and Stakeford


Choppington and the villages around it have good open spaces for a walk. There's open ground and former colliery land around the parish, and the River Wansbeck isn't far away at Sheepwash. We take time to understand your dog's personality, energy and usual routine before we recommend a walk.

Meet Karina, who looks after this area


Karina owns the Good Dog Walking territory that covers Ashington, Choppington and the nearby towns and villages. She covers Choppington every weekday. She is the proud owner of Elvis, her 9-year-old Labrador. After spending most of her life travelling the world, she decided, with two young children and her dog, to settle locally and take on a new role. Karina has had dogs for years and is passionate about them.


Karina met Cheryl and Linda through Good Dog Walking, when they looked after Elvis, and they have since become good friends. She was so impressed by the care they provide, and by their love of dogs, that she went into partnership with them, bringing their established, award-winning company (Professional Dog Business UK) to the Ashington area. She now gives dogs in this territory the same care Cheryl and Linda gave Elvis.

The walks and visits we can provide


Group and one-to-one dog walking


Our dog walking services in Choppington include group walks and individual walks. Group walks are capped at six dogs per walker, and we only add a dog when we are confident they will be comfortable in company. For dogs that are shy, elderly, still in training, or simply not suited to a pack, we offer one-to-one walking instead.


We aim to keep the same walker where we can, so your dog sees a familiar face. If holiday cover is needed, we will arrange another local walker and let you know.


Puppy visits, home visits and countryside daycare


Younger dogs that are not ready for a full walk can have puppy visits, with feeding, toilet breaks, play and company as agreed. We also visit cats, rabbits, chickens and other small household pets at home, and we offer countryside daycare, as listed on our Ashington territory page.


Walkers use a dedicated app to record the GPS time and location at the start and end of each visit, and you receive photographs and a service report afterwards.

Booking, access and updates


Registered clients book through Pet Sitter Plus, our online booking service. Karina covers Choppington every weekday. New customers should get in touch first so we can take your details and agree a suitable time. Bookings are always subject to availability and confirmation. Arrival times are given as a two-hour window, which allows the walker to travel between jobs. Weekend and public holiday visits may be possible, with a 50% surcharge, and are best booked early.


We agree how we will enter your home before services begin. A key safe is the option we prefer, because it lets an authorised walker come and go securely without you having to be in.
