Local walkers regularly use Sutton Park, Cannon Hill Park, Lickey Hills and Sheldon Country Park for solo and group walks. Group sizes are typically capped at four to six dogs and matched by size and temperament.
Pricing in Birmingham is mid-range for the UK. Expect £10–£15 for a 30-minute solo walk, £8–£13 per dog for a small group walk, and discounted rates for regular weekly bookings.
Birmingham City Council licenses boarding, daycare and breeding businesses, but dog walking itself is unregulated — so insurance, references and a meet-and-greet matter more than ever. Most reputable walkers carry full public liability cover.
When choosing a Birmingham dog walker, consider:
- Insurance and care, custody & control cover
- Group walk size and dog matching
- DBS check if they hold a key
- Free meet-and-greet and trial walk
