Finding a Dog Walker

London has thousands of dog walkers - here's how to find a good one: **Key Questions:** Are they insured? What qualifications/training? How many dogs at once? What's their emergency protocol? **Good Signs:** Full insurance, limited group sizes (6-8 max), positive reviews, meets dog first, clear communication. **Red Flags:** Too many dogs at once, no insurance, can't provide references, won't do a trial walk. **Platforms:** Rover, Tailster, and Borrow My Doggy are popular. Local Facebook groups often have recommendations. **Costs:** Expect £12-20 per hour walk. Group walks are cheaper. Prices vary by area - Central London is most expensive.
