Herts Hiking Hounds Dog Walking & Training is a professional, 5 star rated pet care service based in Abbots Langley, covering the immediate and surrounding areas, including Kings Langley, Apsley, Leavesden and North Watford. Specialising in positive socialisation we aim to provide the very best bespoke service to suit your dogs wants and needs.<\/p>

We offer a variety of services from group walks (most popular!), training and home visits, to puppy socialisation classes and health checks.<\/p>

Sarah, who started Herts Hiking Hounds in 2018, has since welcomed Karen, Sue, Sarah B, Mel, Clare and professional trainer Linda to her team. There\u2019s nothing we love more than spending time with your pups who we see as our adopted children! We are one big family.<\/p>

We\u2019re so lucky to live in an area of natural beauty like Hertfordshire, with its rolling hills, green pastures, fields, parks and woodland areas. We make sure your dogs get out and enjoys playing, sniffing, running and digging to their heart’s content.<\/p>

We understand that life can be busy, so there isn\u2019t always time to take your pup for the daily walks they need to stay fit, happy and healthy. That\u2019s where we come in. We set up Herts Hiking Hounds to take care of all breeds of four-legged friends, with the aim to help alleviate any feelings of guilt or stress from not being able to walk your dog when they need it. We\u2019re there to ensure your pet receives all the love, care and attention they need while you\u2019re busy with every-day life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Please be rest assured that we are all extremely knowledgeable with breeds and what their individual needs are. We pride ourselves in also matching dogs together.<\/p>

We hope you find everything you need on our website, but if you have any specific questions, or would like to chat to a member of our team, simply give us a call or send us a message via our Contact<\/a> page. We\u2019d be delighted to hear from you. If you have any questions, or would like to book in a no obligation meet and greet, then please do get in touch.\u00a0<\/p>

Sarah and the rest of the Herts Hiking Hounds family all look forward to meeting you soon and welcoming your dog into our pack of happy hounds<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
