Welcome to Lead & Ramble


At Lead & Ramble, we pride ourselves on providing a personalised and professional dog walking and training service in Epsom and the surrounding areas.

More Than Just Dog Walking

As a devoted dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pup. That’s why I created Lead & Ramble—not just another dog walking service, but a thoughtfully designed experience built around the care, safety, and structure I’d want for my own dogs.

Drawing from my own experiences and desires as a dog owner, I’ve crafted Lead & Ramble to be a breed apart.

How Are We Different?

  • GPS tracked walks for your peace of mind
  • Small structured groups, capped at four dogs per handler, for focused attention and care 
  • Daily social media updates, so you can stay connected to your dog's day, wherever you are

What Our Customers Say


Frequently Asked Questions

What are the group sizes for the walks?

We keep our group walks limited to 4 dogs per handler to ensure individual attention and safety.

Are you insured?

Yes! All of our walkers are insured and copies of our insurance documents are available upon request.

Are you trained in pet first aid?

Yes! All of our walkers are pet first aid trained. Certification details are available upon request. 

What training methods do you use?

Our training methods are rooted in positive reinforcement and tailored to each dog’s unique personality, behaviour, and needs. We always keep treats on hand to reward recall, focus, and great behaviour. We also make sure to replicate the structure and expectations from your home, so your dog’s training stays consistent and effective. While we emphasise reward based training, we're also trained in the use of various tools and support balanced methods. Every dog is different and our goal is to implement what works best for each individual dog.

Can I meet you before scheduled walks?

We offer a free meet and greet service so we're a friendly face to you and your pup before any scheduled walks. 

How do you provide updates on the walks?

We provide personalised updates through your individual WhatsApp group chat and Instagram daily. 

Will my dog be cleaned before returning home?

Unfortunately we are not qualified groomers. We always have towels on hand and will wipe down muddy paws the best we can. But if the weather is particularly bad, do not expect your dog to return looking as they did at pick up. We recommend having us leave your dog in a suitable area when you're not home on those particularly mucky days! 

Are there any breed or size restrictions?

Absolutely not! At L&R we do not breed discriminate. Dogs will be matched on size and play style as much as possible. We do not accept any aggressive dogs onto group walks, but all breeds are welcomed. Any dogs on the Dangerous Dogs List, due to laws and insurance cover, are to be walked on a solo basis. 

Do you walk intact males or females in season?

Yes, we walk intact males. Every dog is assessed individually based on their behavior and temperament, there’s no discrimination. If they get along well with others, they're welcome to join group walks. If not, we’ll recommend solo walks instead.

Females in season can still be exercised, but only on solo road walks. Group walks aren’t allowed during this time. Alternatively, we’re happy to swap the walk for a pop-in visit instead.

Do I need to be home when you collect/drop off my dog?

No. Most clients will give us a key, which will not have any reference to your address and will always be held securely. 

Do you have a cancellation policy?

There is a 50% cancellation fee for walks cancelled with less than 48hrs notice. The full fee applies for cancellations made with less than 24hrs notice.
