we’re proud of what people say about us
“
Tina at York Walkies puts her whole heart into her work and looks after my dogs as if they were her own. She’s trustworthy and conscientious and my two elderly greyhound boys absolutely adore her!

“
We couldn’t recommend Tina any more highly. Our rescue collie, Spirit, is nervous around other dogs and so a dog walker was not an option for us for a long time, but Tina takes Spirit out for walks just the two of them, and he loves her. We are always so happy with the thought of Tina visiting Spirit whilst we are out, knowing that he’s with someone who loves him like we love him and that he’s safe and well looked after. We love getting a little update about their time together, especially when we get photos as well! There’s nobody else we would rather have looking after our boy.
...and Spirit says: Tina is NICE I like Tina and ball.”

“
York Walkies came highly recommend to us and we have always been delighted with the care they have given Bonnie over the years. Tina and her team are very friendly, reliable and we always know she is in safe hands.

“Our golden retriever Freddy loves his ‘Tina walks’ and the fuss that she gives him. He always says hi to her with his tail wagging, which is all the testimonial I need! Tina is a super-friendly dog loving person, who always tries hard to accommodate us into her schedule & I would recommend her to anyone.”
— Andy and Freddy
“Y
ork Walkies is extremely professional, well-organised, completely reliable, and also friendly.
Tina Abbott is a most conscientious, generous person, with a great love for, and knowledge of dogs.
Unlike many dog walking businesses, her business offers 1 to 1 dog walks, tailored to your dog's needs. Our border terrier is very dog-reactive, and so, not easy to walk, yet they have helped him with quiet kindness and excellent training skills, so he enjoys his walks.
I have absolutely no hesitation in giving this business my highest recommendation.”
— Frances and Peebles
“Hello, my name is Frankie and I have known Tina for many years. She comes to feed me when my owner goes away and I look forward to seeing her. She always stays for a while and has a play with me and gives me cuddles. She sends a message to my owner to let her know everything is okay and sometimes takes a photo of me to send. My owner’s name is Sue and we live in Rawcliffe. We have both been happy with Tina over the years.”
— Sue and Frankie
“Tina is very reliable and always tries to help out when we have to change plans. Timmy is delighted to see her and enjoys his walks; Tina sends us a little up date to let us know he’s home safe. Tina genuinely loves Timmy and treats him like her own. When we first got Timmy I was checking in on our nanny cam and accidentally heard Tina tell him how special he is!”
— Becky, Sam and Timmy
“I would happily recommend Tina to others. She is highly professional, very quick to respond to any queries and always lets us know once she's been to the house. Our dog isn't the most energetic and she's always very patient with him! Tina has also been incredibly flexible with appointments now that I am partly working from home”
