Who We Are

Founded over 12 years ago in the heart of Fulham, London Walking Paws is a trusted name in premium, home-from-home dog care. We’re proud to offer dogs the fun, safety, love, and attention we’d want for our own pups – Archie, Charlie and Mary.

Our small, passionate team works closely together to deliver daily adventures and tail wags for every dog we care for.

Now, we’re looking for a dedicated Dog Walker & Driver to help us bring joy to even more four-legged clients.

Ensure dogs are clean and comfortable before drop-off
Follow the daily schedule and manage time efficiently
Take occasional photos or updates to share with owners (if required)

What We’re Looking For

✔ A genuine love of dogs and experience caring for or walking them (especially groups)
✔ Confidence with all breeds – large, small, young and senior
✔ Physically fit and happy to be on your feet outdoors
✔ A positive, calm and patient approach to animal care
✔ Self-motivated and able to manage your own schedule
✔ A full clean UK licence
✔ Your own car is not required
✔ Excellent timekeeping and reliability
✔ Clear and friendly communicator – with dogs and humans alike
