Walking dogs in CR2, 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. Comfortable family suburbs around Sanderstead: drives, gardens, spaniels — and new-build corners whose puppy boom arrives about nine months after the moving vans. Side gates and key safes keep the round moving through empty houses — dog collected, gate checked, a muddy-faced photo sent at the drop. Puppies follow moving vans as surely as spring follows winter, and this patch moves roughly 740 households in a normal year.

The parking. Wide avenues, dropped kerbs, space outside most doors — geography that never argues with a loading pack. A locked side gate is the only snag going, and the morning text kills it — regulars leave theirs open on walk days. Dense streets make the green-space run part of the craft: pickups on foot, then the van to wherever the real space is, and back for doorstep drop-offs.

The round. The round in CR2 works around Sanderstead, South Croydon and Selsdon. Around 20,114 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.
