Trotters Independent Dog Walking Co. provide a professional dog walking service in North West Leicester. I do group walkies and may be able to accommodate 1-2-1’s, either on or off lead depending on your dog’s recall.
I rotate the walks between several parks and woods in the area so the dogs get varied experiences, but I use set routes so the dogs still know where we are going. I always carry a tin of treats to assist with recall and to use as positive reinforcement for good behaviour.
I’m careful to ensure the dogs I walk together are compatible and happy to be in each other’s company. On their walks with me, your pooch will be able to socialise, play or just have a good sniff in a pleasant environment, all helping to build their confidence around other dogs.
I have been a dog lover all my life, which is why I have made dog walking my full-time occupation. Since becoming a dog walker in January 2020, I have spent lots of time learning about canine behaviour and training techniques, out of a fascination with the species so I can do the best for my own dogs and for yours. I am an adherent to force-free techniques and do not agree with “correcting naughty behaviour”. I use distractions or reassurance to curtail unwanted behaviours and affirm good behaviour each time I see it by rewarding it with a treat or praise.
I believe that with all the love and loyalty dogs give us, the very least we can do for them is ensure they get all the affection, stimulation and good times they deserve. Walkies are the best part of the day so I will make sure your dog has tons of fun, exercise and good care while out on their walk with me. I’ll share photos of your dog enjoying the walk and make sure they have clean paws at the end of it.
I am DBS criminal records checked and fully insured so you can have complete peace of mind when I enter your home and take your furry family member for a walk. I also hold a canine first aid qualification.
I can accept dog walking bookings in the North West Leicester area, including Glenfield, Westcotes, Beaumont Leys, Ratby, Groby, Anstey and Leicester Forest East.
Claire is amazing and highly recommend my 2 pups were 12weeks old when she first started popping in and letting them out and she has watched them grown from puppy training to lead training on walkies with updates on how there doing through out the day..She takes the time and effort to make sure your furry friend is looked after!!

Claire is an extremely reliable dog walker. Our dog absolutely loves going on walks and has made friends with lots of dogs. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with our dog - Claire clearly adores the dogs and treats them as her own. We would highly recommend Claire & Trotters Dog Walking.

Where to begin?! Claire is absolutely fantastic and I could not recommend a more reliable, trustworthy and caring person to help! Claire has been taking our Charlie on many adventures and taught him to be confident around other dogs and even go for a paddle, which given Charlie’s history as a rescue has been petrified of water! I cannot thank Claire enough for all she does for us, the love and care given to Charlie and look forward to continuing in the new year! It’s a paws up from Charlie and a big Thankyou from me! :)

Very quick response. Very reliable very good with my dog as sometimes my dog can be a bit of a handful when she is out but Claire has been very good with her. I also like it that she sends me photos when she is out with my dog I would highly recommend trotters independent dog walking
