Walking dogs in IP5, 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. Period houses and cottages in the middle of Kesgrave, family estates around the edge, villages beyond — and dogs at every layer of it. The estates supply the volume, the older streets the loyalty — a book that carries both walks through every season. New faces arrive at a steady drip — 303 completions in the latest recorded year — and none of them bring a dog walker with them.

The parking. Access barely makes the list of problems in Kesgrave — estate drives, calm kerbs, and only the old middle needing thought. The van gets seen everywhere in a place this size, and a liveried van with a happy pack behind it is the cheapest marketing in the trade. Martlesham Heath sits inside the boundary — and green-edged names like that are always the first place a new round goes looking for its regular loop.

The round. The round in IP5 works around Kesgrave, Martlesham Heath and Rushmere St Andrew. Around 8,290 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.
