Walking dogs in SG8, 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. Villages and scattered one-offs surround Royston — long drives behind stock fences, and dogs left minding empty houses while their owners work in town. Mud is the uniform from October to March — towels in the van, a hose-down offered at the door, and clients who love you for both. New faces arrive at a steady drip — 614 completions in the latest recorded year — and none of them bring a dog walker with them.
The parking. Wardens don't exist on this patch; what budgets the day is the distance from one booking to the next. Tractors, floods and gateway mud all get a vote — a padded schedule keeps every dog's hour honest. No shortage of ground out here — the skill is reading it: which lanes flood, which fields carry sheep, where the ground holds a pack safely.
The round. The round in SG8 works around Royston, Old Wimpole, Flint Cross, Bridgefoot and Meldreth. Around 16,856 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.

What owning SG8 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.
