A local, personal service
Treated like one of the family.
Walks n Wags is an independent service created to give dogs in Colchester, Potters Bar and the surrounding areas the exercise, stimulation and company they need—without making their owners rearrange the whole day.
Every new dog starts with a relaxed meet and greet. It is a chance to learn about their personality, routine, recall, health and favourite things, and to make sure the service feels right for everyone.
