Walking dogs in W4, 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. Inner-London streets of terraces and flat conversions, packed tight — and no yard the size of a rug ever counted as exercise. Conversion flats double the doors per building — and a dog walked well from one flat has a way of recruiting the dog upstairs. New faces arrive at a steady drip — 642 completions in the latest recorded year — and none of them bring a dog walker with them.

The parking. CPZ territory: the rounds that last are built around one honest parking spot and a collection loop that walks from it. Do the transfers properly: harnesses clipped, tailgate routine drilled, and the kerbside minutes stay minutes. Names like Grove Park tell you what this ground used to be; the working round is built on whatever open space the district really keeps, scouted on foot before it's promised to a pack.

The round. The round in W4 works around Grove Park, Gunnersbury, Bedford Park, Acton Green and Strand on the Green. Around 20,178 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.

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.
