Scallywaggers on-sea dog walking services

I do not normally post reviews and hate setting up accounts to do this! But in this case it is worth the effort.My dog Tara is a 15 month old Labrador full of life and attitude. Unfortunately I hurt my back recently and therefore can only go for very short lead walks and Tara needs lots of exercise and play, hence the use of Scallywaggers. A fantastic service provided, always reliable and on time as promised, I get a text message to say they are on the way (something Tara has picked up on! when she hears the phone beep she gets excited and raring to go) When picked up Tara is made to sit and calm down before going out the house. They are away for well over an hour and when Tara gets home it is obvious she has had a good time, she is happy, her tongue is usually well out her mouth, and she is tired out. I explained that I did not mind Tara getting wet or dirty and on a couple of occasions she has come home just like that but as I explained it is all about the fun and exercise she gets. When coming back into the house, Tara is made to sit calmly before the lead is removed, so as well as the walks and exercise i wanted, some training is provided as well. Once again a fantastic service good value for money

Mari was amazing with both Daisy (dog) and myself. I had a foster dog for a few months and Mari helped teach me new techniques to combat certain behavioural difficulties as well as giving Daisy great exercise. Communication with Mari was always clear and easy and the service really great. Daisy absolutely loved her which told me everything I needed to know.It was really clear that Mari worked with Daisy on her walks too and the difference between the dog I got and the dog that left were remarkable.Daisy has now found a forever home but I know I will definitely use Mari in the future with any more dogs that come into my life.Highly recommended.

I couldn’t recommend Mariella enough. From the day she met our whippet Peanut he adored her. He always has the most fun when he is with Mariella and we can rest assured he is well looked after. She is a dog trainer and knows how to handle Pea if he ever becomes a bit too much and has given me so much brilliant advice over the past year. Mariella is incredibly accommodating, kind and generous with her time. We moved down to Hastings leaving most of our friends and family in London, and we honestly don’t know what we would do without Mari. Thank you for being the most amazing dog walker and trainer.

I have used this service for a number of months now. The girl I use is friendly and usually on time. My little doggy gets on with the other dogs on the walk and is always happy to go. I would recommend this service as I have never had a problem and my fur baby enjoys the time out with her so is getting more socialosed as well.

An amazing service. Dog walking is brilliant, reliable and chief comes home happy and tired out. The one to one training completely fixed issues we had with pulling on the lead and reacting to people and dogs in the street. In only a couple of sessions Mariella taught us ways to change and it worked really quickly. Recommend very highly, Sarah

I rung Mari this morning to ask if she could walk my dog that same day as I was unwell. She said yes straight away and even asked me what time I’d like my dog walked. I was so grateful as other walkers had said no.She sent over the paperwork immediately and arrived an hour later to walk my dog.My dog is nervous of new people and has separation anxiety, but as soon as Mari turned up at my house my dog warmed to her and never even looked back as Mari left with her! That to me says a lot more than any reference. She kept me updated on her walk with photos of my dog and was gone over the designated hour, my dog returned happy and slept in her bed for a good two hours after.Was so impressed with her professionalism and kindness to me and my dog.Would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again.

By far the best doggy walker I've ever had! Reliable, trustworthy, extremely knowledgeable, and great with doggies. Really wonderful to have someone you 100% trust walking your precious fur babies, and so nice not having to worry about anything and not worrying they'll forget to turn up (like I have with previous walkers!). My doggies love Mari and that pretty much says it all. My Chow is quite a handful too (very strong, pulls on the lead terribly, and is incredibly stubborn); so that just shows how good she is even more! Can't recommend her services enough x

I am most thankful to have Mari look after and exercise our boys. They fell in love with her straight away and since meeting her have benefitted from her knowledge and expert handling. Our JRTs are so calm upon returning from walks with Mari, which is the complete opposite to the overwhelming excitement they show upon her arrival. Additionally, Mari is punctual, communicates in a timely manner letting me know if there’s a change at all in behaviours or toileting habits and she’s flexible.

Mari has been a lifesaver walking my new puppy the few days I’m at work. She has helped me out with his training and he is now a well behaved socialised dog, who loves going out with all his doggy friends. I like that she is flexible and always ready to try and help out with any last minute changes. But the best of all Ozzie loves her and is a safe and happy dog when he is out with her. Thank you for all your help!
