The Lonely Dogs Club

I cannot recommend Zarina highly enough. She has been walking our golden retriever, Callie, two times per week since June 2022. During this time Callie has gone through her adolescent phase and Zarina took this in her stride, taking the time to understood Callie's feelings, behaviours and energy-levels!Callie loves going on adventures with her and we are so thrilled she was able to join in with the group walks which has been beneficial for learning social skills and improving her recall!A major plus is that Zarina keeps us updated with photo after mostwalks either via WhatsApp or on her socials. It puts our mind at ease to see Callie happily trotting along or taking the plunge in any body of water (including puddles!) and seeing her with other doggo friends!Zarina clearly has a gift and passion for dogs. She keeps Callie engaged throughout their walks, playing with a ball or training on recall and prey-drive. When they return, Callie is pleasantly worn out (see pic!)Lonelydogs club has been a lifesaver on our busy work days when we cannot provide adequate exercise ourselves and Zarinas flexibility and reliability is something I have not found with other dog walkers! I would enthusiastically recommend Zarina to any dog owner looking for a responsible, attentive walker in the local area :)

Great dog sitter! Zarina stayed with our dog for the weekend and took excellent care of our pup, sending really sweet updates and photos. Our dog just adores her! It was so nice to know that our very anxious and often dog-reactive whippet was in safe and understanding hands while we were away.

Zarina is a great dog-walker, reliable and sensitive to dogs' needs. My puppy, Sukha loved walking with her and we'll be using her services more often in the future. Sukha and we really appreciate you, Zarina!

Hugely recommend The Lonely Dogs Club. Zarina walks and house sits our dog Ivor regularly and always takes such good care of him. She is great about being flexible with our changing work schedules, which is super helpful, and Ivor is always so excited to see her and happy after his walks/visits. Brilliant service.

We absolutely adore Zarina!! She’s so good with our Greyhound who is obsessed with her, and whines like a baby when she turns up for his weekly walk. Highly recommend!

Zarina is a fabulous dog walker, I would certainly recommend her services. My doggy loves her! She is very good at what she does and has a genuine passion for the welfare and best interest of all her doggies!

Zarina is such a fantastic dog walker I fully trust at all times. She really cares and matches dogs for walks and balances enrichment and sniffing with play time and gives such valuable advice for training. My spaniel pup is always super excited to see her and comes back home happy and tired. If you’re looking for a dog walker who genuinely cares about your dog beyond the time of the walk she’s the one!

Can't recommend Zarina highly enough. She is experienced in handling different dogs and will adapt to their individual needs. She is reliable and has been flexible to fit in with our needs. We would be lost without her and our pup adores her. He sits in the window on Zarina Days, waiting for her to arrive.

Zarina has walked our Romanian rescue, Zelda, since she was approx 8 months old, which was a couple of months after she arrived. She has been amazing with her and Zelda adores her. Zarina has extensive experience of overseas rescues, their specific 'needs' and anxieties as she has her own Romy rescue. Zarina has been so helpful and really goes above and beyond in terms of training, feeding and behavioural advice too. She is incredibly patient with adolescent dogs like Zelda who love to push boundaries and forget their training at times! Highly recommend!

I have a large breed dog reactive dog, Kaya, which makes walks extremely challenging at times. Zarina took the time to understand her needs and built up a relationship with her. Zarina has not just helped with walking Kaya but she has helped build her confidence and gone out if her way to help with other issues.Zarina really has a good understanding of dogs and dog behaviours and I would reccomend her services to anyone.
