Walking dogs in BT42, honestly.
Written dog walker to dog walker. This is the ground truth the apps and lead sites have never stood in — at six in the morning, in the rain.
The doors. The middle of Ballymena keeps its old houses, the ring its new estates, and the lanes beyond keep the village dogs — miles for whoever wants them. The estates supply the volume, the older streets the loyalty — a book that carries both walks through every season.
The parking. Permit zones don't exist on this patch — the old middle of Ballymena has market-day moments, the estates have none. Client-to-client hops are short enough that fuel barely registers — town rounds run lean. The edge of town is never far in a place this size — most rounds reach open ground within minutes, whichever direction the day starts.
The round. The round in BT42 works around . Around 14,923 households live here, and the ones who take a dog walker keep them — five days a week, term time and holidays, years on end. That's not a lead list — that's a round, built once and kept.

| Weekly bundle (5 group walks) | £45–£58 |
| Day care / home boarding (per day) | £25–£35+ |
| Local going rates from our regional price model. The BT42 holder sets their own prices — we never touch the money. | |
What owning BT42 is actually worth
Put it the way you'd put it at the park gate: one kept dog pays for the page several times over, every single year. And unlike an app, the second dog doesn't cost you a penny more.
