I'm Lina: the woman behind Walkerloo Dog Walking!
I've always been an avid animal lover, with a particular passion for dogs. In fact, I spent many years dog walking and dog sitting as a hobby and a side hustle while I worked my day job before turning my passion into a full-time business in February 2023. For two years, I ran my own dog walking business doing both group walks of up to four dogs per walk and solo walks in Hackney before moving to Teddington in November 2024. I now offer solo walks and drop-in visits, as well as walks for multiple dogs from the same household.
I have experience handling and walking a wide range of dogs of various breeds, sizes, and ages. I'm confident that my professional experience and my passion for dogs make me the perfect choice for your dog needs.
I am:
- fully insured
- DBS checked
- canine first aid certified
Pick-up and drop-off are by foot, and together we will walk to a local park, such as Ham Lands. I also like finding breed-specific activities for your dog, such as hiding treats for them to sniff and find, or playing tug and fetch.
I also offer drop-in visits, or a combination of both where I take your dog for a walk and then spend some time with them in your home.
Unless otherwise agreed, I'll text you as I arrive and when I leave to ensure you have peace of mind.
- 30 minutes | £15
- 60 minutes | £22
Walks with more than one dog from the same household can also be accommodated for an additional £5 per dog.
Coco | Cavapoo
"Lina is a professional and brilliant dog walker.
Her friendly and bubbly personality was always a welcome to our day. She was always on time and kept me informed with brilliant photos on every walk and when she dropped my dog home.
Coco loved her walks with Lina, always understanding of her needs and age. I would 100% recommend Lina and we miss her terribly. You and Your dogs will be very lucky to have Lina!"

Vera | Lurcher
"Lina has been the most caring of Dog Walkers, and so reliable. For example, will turn up at my door on many occasions in pouring rain with a smile!! Her walks are varied. She knows the character of all her dogs, what makes them tick. She remains so calm. I will miss her so much and so will Vera!"

Max | Dachshund
"Lina has been an incredible dog walker for our dog, Max. From the very beginning, she built a strong bond with him, and it didn’t take long before Max would eagerly wait by the door, excited for her arrival.
Lina’s natural affinity with dogs is obvious, and her gentle approach quickly put both Max and us at ease. Every time Max was with Lina, we had complete peace of mind. She genuinely went above and beyond our expectations, doing thoughtful things that showed how much she cared.
If you’re looking for a dedicated, compassionate, and reliable dogsitter, Lina is the best choice!"

Basil | Corgi
"Lina has been our dog’s walker - and his favourite person - for the last 2 years. He always has so much fun with her, and we trust her with him completely.
Walking with her has hugely improved his confidence around other dogs, and given us a much needed break a couple of days a week. He always comes home tired and happy!
We are so sad that due to moving away, our dog won’t be going for walks with her anymore but we still want to arrange meet ups so he can be reunited with his best friend!"
- Lena
Hilma and Bruno | English Bulldogs
"Lina has been walking my two dogs for the last year and I don't know what I would have done without her. One dog loves to walk while the other is quite adamantly against it so it's not always easy to figure out what to do with the both of them. Luckily for us, Lina is so patient, caring and attentive and figured out how to make my lazy dog walk! I knew on the days that Lina was coming that the dogs would be so happy and cared for. We all love Lina and are sad that she moved away from Hackney! She's a gem!"

Dennis | English Bull Terrier
"Dennis is lovely, but extremely lazy and stubborn. Lina was absolutely fantastic with him. She was so patient, but also incredibly caring. We have had dog walkers in the past who have just come to let him out before swiftly bringing him back inside as he was unwilling to move. But Lina always did her utmost best to move him and even got him on some considerably long walks, which is much harder than it sounds. And on days when he just wouldn’t walk at all, she would play with him and care for him in the house, which was amazing.
I know that Dennis loved her very much, and we did too. Lina made our lives much easier and we’re absolutely gutted that we’ve moved out of her catchment area. We could not possibly recommend her enough to anyone!"
