Dog Walking
Our structured dog walking service combines countryside, woodland, and beach environments with expert-led exploration. Each session includes off-lead recall practice in our secure 2.5-acre field, tailored to individual behavioural needs. We prioritise mental stimulation alongside physical exercise, ensuring dogs return home relaxed and fulfilled through our experienced handlers' dedicated care.
Socialisation
Specialised socialisation programmes address separation anxiety and improve inter-dog interactions through controlled group activities. Our field-based sessions focus on positive reinforcement, helping dogs build confidence and adaptability. With 79 years of collective experience, our team creates safe environments for behavioural transformation, as evidenced by client testimonials highlighting reduced nervousness and improved obedience.
Beach Day Out
Biannual beach excursions to Camber provide unique sensory experiences for dogs, including sand play and water interaction. These full-day trips promote physical fitness and environmental enrichment through supervised exploration. Limited to specific seasons, these outings offer socialisation opportunities while catering to dogs' natural instincts for discovery and play in dynamic coastal settings.

Swaggle are amazing! Our little pup has been with them a few months now and he has learnt so much. He is so well looked after with them and gets lots of love. Sid (the pup) struggled with separation anxiety and the exercise they do has resolved any issues we had. If you want a dog walker that you can trust, are reliable and friendly use Swaggle!
