DOGS BEST M8 is an friendly, door-to-door dog walking service for you and your dog offering your dog an enjoyable and hopefully tiring walk during the day when you are unable to go out with them yourself
Canine customers will be picked up from their home and transported securely to one of the country parks , forests or beaches near to Newcastle upon Tyne
I aim to offer each dog a walk tailored to its own needs but also providing a stimulating experience

Services
I walk every weekday, rain or shine, and I offer morning walks of 1.5 hours off lead when possible in a safe environment or lunchtime walks for 30 mins locally to your home.These times do not include the time taken to travel to and from the location.
After the walk I will deliver your tired and happy dog home, rub down with a towel if necessary and put down food and fresh water as required.
I will only walk your dog off lead with your written consent and only when I am sure your dog knows me and will return when called
Before I walk your dog I will visit you in your home so we can discuss your needs and I can answer any questions you may have.

Testimonials
Fiona provided a reliable, flexible service for my dogs, who loved her. The dogs had a whole hours walk out in the countryside in almost all weather conditions. I would not have been able to complete my studies without her services. She is also very knowledgeable about dogs and genuinely cares about them. I recommend Fiona highly.
M. McGarry
Our collie Otto has always loved his walks with Fiona. Fiona is very experienced, conscientious and reliable. She is very knowledgeable about dog behaviour and gives her dogs a full outdoor experience! We couldn’t recommend her highly enough!
David Van Looy
Fiona walks our 3 year old collie, Ollie, 3 times a week whilst we’re at work. Fiona is reliable, friendly and loves Ollie likes he’s her own. She gives him a good run off lead in the woods and is very careful regarding his limitations. I would highly recommend Fiona. She also very flexible and will go out of her way to help us out with Ollie.
Anna Thorley
Fiona is a brilliant dogwalker, my dogs always came home well walked and very happy. She is conscientious, reliable flexible and honest. She also has a lifetime's experience with dogs, (and over 10 years walking our collies), she understands them and genuinely enjoys them and walking.
We can't recommend her enough.
Penny Giddings
Fiona is a Godsend. Our Freya is not best traveller so popping her in the dog crate in car where I know she's safe is brilliant. Fiona takes us to vet appointments and waits to bring us home (helping at vets too)and we were so relieved to find her pet taxi service -having used it for years we've actually now become friends and her fees are very reasonable 🙂
Lynne Hewitson
Fiona is a brilliant dog walker. My dog luna absolutely loves her walks with her- she is so excited to see her and can't wait to go! As a new client Fiona was really professional and took the time to sit down with me to explain the different services, insurance etc, as well as organising an introductory session for us all together to put my mind at ease. Would highly recommend to anyone!
Ruth Fox
Incredibly reliable, excellent with our dog Thompy who she has looked after ever since he was a young puppy. Couldn't recommend enough!
Jake Shepherd
We found Fiona when our dog was only a puppy. She took the time to show us where she’d walk him (a lovely traffic free area with a meadow & river) and we found her to be very knowledgeable & caring when it came to dogs - both with her own & her client’s. She’s reliable and kind and we always felt very happy and reassured that she was looking after him. We highly recommend her - really the best dog walker we’ve ever had
Jane Jardine
This lady literally became my collies fairy dogmother...Whilst we were at work she took him on amazing walks...I smashed my ankle in covid and she went above and beyond to walk him...he would squeal when she drew up with Jake her collie...she really is a god send if you need a walker and her collie is beautiful and friendly
