What Our Clients Say……

“Absolutely over the moon with Dashing Dogs what a fantastic service”

Tina - Bishop Auckland

“Lisa and the team are amazing! I don’t know where I would be without Dashing Dogs. Cumbie and Lincoln absolutely love it when they are greeted on a morning by the team.”

Bethany - Bishop Auckland

“Reliable and great with my nervy collie. He has become more confident with people as well. Lisa and her daughter made beautiful snuffle mats for the dogs as well!”

Julia - Bishop Auckland

  • I hired Dashing Dogs because I was finding it difficult to walk my dog sometimes for sufficient distances. I was worried like we all are about what might happen when someone else walks your dog. No need to worry, Lisa completely understood my dog’s needs from the start. He is of a nervous disposition, not dog friendly and has epilepsy, Lisa has handled everything brilliantly. My dog could never have tolerated group dog walks. I can relax when she takes my dog out for his walks. He is in good hands and gets the right amount of exercise for him, loving the meanders and treats, as well as loving Lisa. I can continue to work without stressing about my dog, love to see his excited reaction when she arrives every morning and, when I have needed extra walks, even at short notice, Lisa does everything to oblige. I have total confidence in the service. I would recommend Dashing Dogs to anyone who is seeking a service that meets their dog’s individual, special and unique needs. No two dogs are the same, Dashing Dogs provide a service that responds to this.

  • Lisa and Jade from Dashing dogs look after our quirky, sweet but stubborn little fox terrier with so much care and affection, they manage her stuberness regarding any form of moisture from the sky ruining her blow dry (she hates rain and drizzle and won’t walk ) with perfection , they run off her energy playing games of football which Ellie loves in the garden , they ensure she has refilled with treats her games mats every time they visit so she has plenty to occupy her mind and any request from us, Any worry or concern from us is dealt with with love , concern and kindness. They are skilled in managing dogs and the safeguarding of them and your home and we would recommend them fully. Ellie loves them and sees it as a treat every time they turn up.

  • Hi Lisa, Thank you very much for taking care of Coda and Bingo, I know they love visiting you. I would highly recommend yourself for all pooches needing a bit of grooming love. Lisa, you have always done a fantastic job when grooming both Coda and Bingo. Both of my dogs love going to visit you and look forward to the extra attention from you, and especially from Matt lol. I wouldn't go anywhere else now. Lisa (Dashing Dogs) cater for the person of the dogs too, especially if you are disabled. Love Collette Coda & Bingo. Xx When Jade comes for Coda for his walk, I'm abandoned by him. He very really ever looks back for me. He loves Jade so much she spoils him rotten as if he was one of her own dogs. Jade is such a loving, caring and trustworthy person, not just to Coda and Bingo, Jade always makes time to have a chat with me for a few minutes too until Coda decides he wants his walk now. He loves going out on his adventures with Jade, not only does she give all her attention to Coda, she always makes a fuss of Bingo too. I certainly would recommend yourself & Jade to other people, I personally will not be going anywhere else now for dog grooming or walks Xx

A final thank you from Susie Haynes, owned by Archie, Billie and Evie in Bishop Auckland

Our biggest worry about having a dog walker was our rescue Saluki is really anxious around new people and refuses to walk with people she doesn’t trust.

Lisa spent the necessary time to build trust with our dog and coaxed her along with kindness and patience to the extent that in a few weeks our dog loved her walks and got so excited to see Lisa. Lisa was really sensitive to her needs and kept her safe when out walking.

Lisa always made herself available when we needed her. Our dogs got a decent hours walk full of adventures and fun and they really loved the homemade treats. I never had to worry about my dog’s safety and wellbeing when they were out with Lisa.

I highly recommend dashing dogs - they are worth every penny for an excellent dog walking service that will always make your dogs happy.


Thank you so much for everything

Happy new year!

Kind regards

Susie xx”
